Why have you been so successful in reaching some of your goals，but not others? If you aren’t s ure，you are far from alone in your confusion.It turns out that evenbrilliant，highly accomplished people are pretty lousy when it comes to understanding why they succeed or fail.The intuitive answer—that you are born predisposed to certain talents and lacking in others—is really just one small piece of the puzzle.In fact，decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are，but more often because of what they do.__1__Get specific.When you set yourself a goal，try to be as specific as possible.“Lose 5 pounds” is a better goal than “lose some weight，” because it gives you a clear idea of what success looks like.__2__ Also，think about the specific actions that need to be taken to reach your goal.__3__ Given how busy most of us are，and how many goals we are juggling at once，it’s not surprising that we routinely miss opportunities to act on a goal because we simply fail to notice them.Did you really have no time to work out today? No chance at any point to return that phone call? Achieving your goal means grabbing hold of these opportunities before they slip through your fingers.Know exactly how far you have left to go.Achieving any goal also requires honest and regular monitoring of your progress—if not by others，then by you yourself.If you don’t know how well you are doing，you can’t adjust your behavior or your strategies accordingly.__4__It is my hope that，after reading about the nine things successful people do differently，you have gained some insight into all the things you have been doing right all along.Remember：__5__ It’s never what you are，but what you do. A．Wait for opportunities to appear.B．Seize the moment to act on your goals.C．Here are things successful people do differently.D．Next I’ll talk about my own experience on how to achieve success.E．You don’t need to become a different person to become a more successful one. F．Check your progress frequently—weekly，or even daily，depending on the goal. G．Knowing exactly what you want to achieve keeps you motivated until you get there. 答案 1.C 2.G 3.B 4.F 5.EⅢ.应用文写作假设你叫李华，现在是重点高中第一中学的一名新生。
