逐漸了解到我們需要的是像顧客那樣去思考。由此可知,父親的話對我后來的銷售工作有著很大的影響,因此推斷作者父親釣魚的建議對作者很有啟發(fā),故選B。 (5)考查推理判斷。本文主要講述作者小時候同父親釣魚,作者父親的關于釣魚的建議給了作者在釣魚,尤其是后來的銷售工作中的一些啟示。作者寫釣魚主要也是想表達作者父親的建議對作者后來銷售工作的啟發(fā),因此可推斷這篇文章可能來自關于銷售的書,故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查,是一篇人生感悟類閱讀,考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。4.閱讀理解 We talk a lot in the . about success. Success is the dream and the end point. And not by coincidence the idea that hard work leads to personal success is as American as apple pie. But the reality is that sometimes we fail. And sometimes things, through no fault of our own, don39。t go our way. We39。re faced with a lifechanging diagnosis (診斷), the passing of a loved one or job loss. We don39。t, as a society, have as much to say here. I think uncertainty does us all harm. We39。d feel better equipped to deal with uncertainty if we talked about it more. I had so fully bought into the belief that with enough effort, I could control what happened in my life. I actually caught myself thinking I could work my way out of my cancer. As it turns out, cancer doesn39。t really care about one39。s work. We might also make wiser decisions — this isn39。t just a feelgood exercise. For example, technology and medicine have progressed to the point that many patients are living longer than they would have even a decade ago. These are achievements worth celebrating. And yet I wonder if the focus on success is sometimes misguided here as well. If it is one reason why we tend to pursue expensive endoflife treatments, they often acplish little other than to make a patient39。s final days painful and frightening. The fact is that, when asked, many patients would rather focus on living meaningfully in their final days. My hope here is to make a case for thinking about meaning, in the same way we think about pursuing success. In that spirit, I39。ve asked several people, each of whom has met misfortune, how they find meaning in their lives. The diversity in their responses reflects the fact that there are no right or wrong answers here. We each can find meaning in different things.(1)What is the typical American idea?

One January, I had to hold two funerals for two elderly women in my munity. Both had died full of years, as the Bible would say. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence(吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon. At the first home, the son of the deceased(過世的)woman said to me, If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It39。s my fault that she died. At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, If only I hadn39。t insisted on my mother39。s going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could take. It39。s my fault that she39。s dead. You see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course—keeping Mother at home, putting off the operation—would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse? There seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. The first is our need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. That leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds. The second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. A baby es to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to h
