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? A.Success is the dream.B.Success lies in hard work.C.Apple pie is the best food.D.Failure is always avoidable.(2)What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?

A.live as long as possibleB.live a more meaningful lifeC.make great progress in medicineD.get expensive endoflife treatments(4)What can we learn from the last paragraph?

Royal Stoke University Hospital discovered that its casualty unit(急診室) is on the same spot as a Pokemon Go 39。gym39。 173。173。 where players can train their newly caught Nintendo creatures. The University Hospitals of North Midlands Trust agreed last week that patients can play Pokemon Go on wards because walking around is healthy. But the Trust has been forced to post a warning on its website about public access to Aamp。E. It said if Pokemon Go bees a major annoyance it would ask Nintendo173。173。 which decides on the locations of the virtual gyms according to GPS173。173。to have it removed from the premises(道館). Kevin Parker, associate chief nurse, said, Members of the public who do not need to be at Royal Stoke should not attempt to enter Aamp。E or any other part of the hospital building to play the game. The Aamp。E department is incredibly busy this summer. We want the public to understand that anybody who visits the hospital solely to pl
