10．There are many reasons that goals go unfulfilled．For many，goal setting is a never ending circle that starts，stops，and begins again．To help us succeed in reaching our goals，let's examine the reasons why many people fail at reaching them．Here are 7Reasons That You   Won't Reach Your Goals：
1．You Don't Have Any Goals
Too many people are afraid to"set"their goals．Afraid of failing．Afraid of disappointment．Well，you definitely won't complete them if you don't try．Make a choice and set your goals．Otherwise you will end up wherever life takes you．
2．You Don't Start
OK，so you have a goal．What have you done about it？Have you started it yet？What are you waiting for？Procrastination is responsible for the failure of many goals．
3．You Aren't Willing to"Buy"Your Goals
Yes，you have to buy your goals．Why？Because every goal has a price．It has a cost．Time．Money．Sweat．Sacrifice．You will have to"pay"for your goals in some manner．
4．Your Goals Are Unrealistic．
Make sure that your goals are possible and that you set an adequate time frame for success．
5．You Won't Stick With It
Over half of goals will be given up within 30days．You set your goals．You started them．And then…you gave up．Are you using life's daily happenings as excuses？Goals are not   reached through one effort．Rather，they are made in small steps over time．
6．You Will Fail…And You Won't Get Back Up!
No one succeeds immediately．Those who appear to have effortlessly succeeded have usually put in years of preparation and practice．You have to fall down many times before you will succeed．Skill is learned by doing．
7．You Quit Before The Finish Line
Too many people stop…right before the finish line．It's almost like they are afraid of succeeding．Often a life event is used as the reason for not finishing．Something always comes up before you finish．
Are you reaching your goals？Which of these is keeping you from succeeding？Set your goals．Stay the course．Always get back up when you fail．And make sure you cross the finish line．
67．What's the author's purpose of writing this passage？C
A．To remind people of the importance of setting life goals．
B．To convince people of keeping to their life goals．
C．To clarify the reasons leading to the failure of achieving goals．
D．To persuade people to have big life goals．
68．What's the probable meaning of the underlined word"procrastination"in the second tip？B
A．hesitation     B．delay       C．importance       D．contradiction
69．According to the passage，you will not reach you goals，if youB．
A．a(chǎn)re not willing to spend money seeking helping hands．
B．do not take time to make plans for them．
C．do not let life take you where it goes．
D．a(chǎn)re not afraid of succeeding．
70．What can be learned from the sixth tip？D
A．He who has hope has everything．
B．Two heads are better than one．
C．Practice makes perfect．
D．Keeping up contributes to success．

分析 本文是一篇科教類閱讀，主要講述了有許多原因可以用來解釋目標的未能達成．目標設定是一個有小及大的積累過程，只有完成一個個階段性的小目標，才能最終達成終極目標．文章還總結(jié)了七個導致目標未能達成的原因．

解答 67．答案：C．主旨大意題．根據(jù)第一段"let's examine the reasons why many people fail at reaching them．Here are 7 Reasons That You Won't Reach Your Goals"可知，文章主要講的是造成目標未能達到的原因．故選C．
68．答案：B．詞義猜測題．根據(jù)"You Don't Start…What are you waiting for？Procrastination is responsible for the failure of many goals．"可知，遲遲沒有開始，沒有付諸行動，也是未能達到目標的原因之一，根據(jù)段意可推知劃線詞的意思是"推遲，拖延"．故選B．
69．答案：B．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)"You will have to"pay"for your goals in some manner．"排除A項；根據(jù)"Make a choice and set your goals．Otherwise you will end up wherever life takes you．"排除C項；根據(jù)"Too many people are afraid to"set"their goals．Afraid of failing．"排除D項；根據(jù)"Make a choice and set your goals．Otherwise you will end up wherever life takes you．"可知，你應該花時間做出選擇，定下目標，好好計劃一下未來，否則，你將止步于現(xiàn)狀，不會有什么成就，故選B．
70．答案：D．主旨大意題．根據(jù)第六個標題和"have usually put in years of preparation and practice…You have to fall down many times before you will succeed．"可知，本段講的是，要承受住失敗的打擊，不輕言放棄，通往成功的道路不會是平坦的，需要你做好心理準備．故選D．

18．Imagine sailing through the sky，high above buildings and trees，in perfect peace and quiet．No noisy engines．No window with dirty marks in your way．No strong wind blowing in your face．You can't feel or hear the wind because you're traveling in the exact same direction and at the exact same speed it is．
A hot-air balloon has three main parts：the balloon，called an envelope； a basket，where passengers ride； and a burner system，which supplies the hot air．
Most balloon envelopes are made of strong，lightweight nylon．（尼龍） They vary in size and shape，but they have to be really，really big to lift even a single person．Most weigh more than an adult man and use more fabric（框架）than you'd need to cover a baseball diamond（棒球場）．
The basket is usually made of wicker（柳條），which is strong but not too stiff（僵硬）．It needs to bend a bit for a soft landing，just like a good jumper bends her legs instead of keeping them stiff and straight when she lands．
When the burner system blasts（噴出） flames，it makes a noisy sound，but once the balloon is flying，the burner can be turned off．The air in the envelope will then slowly cool，and the balloon will gradually sink unless the pilot starts the burner again．
To operate，a pilot adds hot air to the balloon to go up or deflates it to go down，until he finds a breeze blowing in the direction he wants to fly．But no matter which way the wind blows them，balloonists have an amazing bird's-eye view of the world．
56．The envelope of a hot-air balloon is used toB．
A．supply the hot air         B．hold the hot air
C．change the height         D．control the direction
57．The soft landing of a hot-air balloon requires that the basketC．
A．should be made of nylon
B．should be controlled by a good jumper
C．should be a little soft
D．should be big enough to lift one person
58．The following steps are involved in flying a hot-air balloon．In what order should these steps happen？A
①Hot air enters the balloon．②The balloon sinks．
③The burner is turned on．   ④The burner is turned off．
⑤The balloon rises．
A．③①⑤④②B．①③⑤②④C．③⑤④①②D．①③⑤④②
59．The underlined word"deflates"in the last paragraph meansA．
A．releases   B．charges      C．flattens      D．separates
60．The text is probably fromD．
A．a(chǎn) story about hot-air balloon adventures
B．a(chǎn) newspaper article about hot-air balloon facts
C．a(chǎn) brochure advertising hot-air balloon rides
D．a(chǎn)n article on hot-air balloons in an airplane magazine．
