Question

【題目】閱讀理解，將方框里的五個句子還原到短文當中。

The air we breathe is so freely available that we take it for granted（想當然）. 【1】 more than a few minutes. For the most part, the same air is available to everyone, and everyone needs it. 【2】 while they sit around and feel sorry for themselves. Others breathe in the air and use the energy it provides to make a wonderful life for themselves.

【3】. It is everywhere. Opportunity is so freely available that we take it for granted. Yet opportunity alone is not enough to create success. Opportunity must be caught and put into action in order to have value. 【4】 and they think the opportunity will do all the work. That’s impossible.

Just as you need air to breathe, you need opportunity to succeed. It takes more than just breathing in the fresh air of opportunity. However, 【5】. That’s not up to the opportunity. That’s up to you. It doesn’t matter what “floor” the opportunity is on. What matters is what you do with it.

試題分析：文章闡述了要充分利用機會這樣一個道理�？諝鉄o處不在并且容易獲得，這讓我們往往會忽視空氣的存在。機會就像空氣一樣無處不在，我們應該充分利用機會來獲得成功。

【1】E句意：然而，沒有它我們就不能生存。根據下文中的句子“the same air is available to everyone, and everyone needs it.” 誰都能呼吸到空氣，誰都需要空氣�？芍�一旦失去空氣，我們只能活幾分鐘。故答案為E。

【2】C句意：有些人利用空氣只是為了活著。結合上下句理解，同時呼吸空氣，有的人碌碌無為地生活著，而有的人活出精彩。故答案選C。

【3】B句意：機會也是如此。此處把機會與空氣相比較，說明機會無處不在，機會面前人人平等，答案為B。

【4】D句意：許多人都渴望能奪得先機。根據下文中的句子“and they think the opportunity will do all the work. That’s impossible.”他們認為奪得先機就能萬事大吉。這是不可能的。the opportunity就是上文中提到的先機。故答案為D。

【5】A句意：你必須利用機會。結合下文中的句子“That’s not up to the opportunity. That’s up to you.”成功并不取決于機會，而是取決于你。說明機會的把握要靠自己，必須利用機會。答案為A。
