【正文】 e passage is most likely to ________. A.B.C.D.作者當時不以為然當，直到自己親身經(jīng)歷了失敗和挑戰(zhàn)后，作者才意識到人們面對挑戰(zhàn)或失敗時要大膽應(yīng)對，保持積極的心態(tài)。一開始介紹了作者的教授提出的一個觀點，但是作者當時不以為然，直到在今后實際生活中真正遇到了失敗或挑戰(zhàn)時才認識到了教授的觀點。故選D。根據(jù)第四段中的“I was no exception. I thought of running away.”我也不例外。我現(xiàn)在準備好面對失敗了。故選A。根據(jù)第四段中的“things bee difficult, and every effort seems to bring disappointment, it can be tempting to lower your expectations or even”可知當事情變得困難，每一次努力似乎都會帶來失望，它可能會降低你的期望，甚至降低你的目標和抱負。故選C。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Success es to the one who dares, even after failure, to think positively and look forward confidently. After all, it is only the experience that makes a man tough. Failure does not mean you will never make it. It means that it will take a little longer. It provides us with a learning experience.”成功屬于那些即使在失敗之后仍敢積極思考并充滿信心地展望未來的人。失敗并不意味著你永遠不會成功。它給我們提供了一個學(xué)習(xí)的經(jīng)驗。即作者寫這篇文章的目的是說服別人。 【點評】本題考點涉及詞義猜測和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇人生感悟類閱讀，要求考生根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。 In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh (法老) treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news.
