A. In spite of B. Instead of C. In case of D. Because of 如果,课文内容学习扎实,单词injury,musician,
consult, therapist, 不成问题。认识injury,consult, 可以确定两个可能选项“如果/万一受伤,看医生”, “因为受伤,所以看医生”。而题干用了should,多 用于建议,即出现某一情况,谁该怎么办。because of 更多是引出某一已经发生的事情的原因。所以选C。

According to Churchill, victory comes only to those who work long and hard, who are willing to pay the price in blood, sweat, and tears. Hard work is also the basic building block of every kind of achievement: Without it, everything else is pointless. You can start with a dream or an idea or a goal, but before any of your hopes can be realized, you truly must deserve your success. This may sound old-fashioned in this age of instant gratification, but from the Sistine Chapel to the first transconti-nental railroad to today’s space shuttle, there’s no mystery as to how these things of wonder were created. They were created by people who worked incredibly hard over a long period of time.丘吉尔认为,胜利只属于那些长期辛苦工作的人,那些愿意付出血汗和泪水代价的人。
辛苦的工作还是一切成功的基石:没有它,别的一切都是毫无意义的。
你可以由一个梦想、一个想法或一个目标开始,但在任何希望实现之前,你真的必须配得上成功。
这在今天这个追求瞬间满足的时代也许显得陈腐老套,但是从西斯廷教堂到第一条横贯大陆铁路,直至今天的航天飞机,这些奇迹的创造都毫无奥秘可言。
它们都是由异常辛勤工作的人们通过长期的努力创造出来的。
Many years later, after I graduated from Harvard with honors and became a lawyer and the CEO of my own company, my mother reflected that, when I was a child,no one would have predicted a successful future——no one except a mother, that is. My parents were crucial in helping me through a nightmare that engulfs so many children,especially young Black boys. As I was on the brink of being condemned as aproblem child, they intervened so I would have a chance. And I have been blessed with opportunities. After college, I worked in politics, becoming chief of staff and campaign manager for a Florida legislator. I attended Stanford Law School and, after some years at a leading consulting firm, founded a company with my sister, Carolyn, and my best friend, Jeff Livingston. Our company,Achieva, offers innovative soft-ware, books and workshops to help school districts across the country prepare their students for college.许多年以后,我以优异成绩毕业于哈佛大学,成为了一名律师和我自己的公司的首席执行官,我母亲说,当我还是个孩子的时候,没有人会预测成功的未来,没有人除了一个母亲,。
我的父母帮我度过一场吞噬了许多孩子的噩梦,尤其是年轻的黑人男孩。
因为我是在被谴责为问题孩子的边缘,因为他们的干预,所以我就有机会。
和我一直有机会。
大学毕业后,我曾在政治,成为办公室主任和佛罗里达议员的竞选经理。
我参加了斯坦福大学法学院,若干年后在一家领先的咨询公司,成立了一个公司,我的妹妹,卡罗琳,和我最好的朋友,杰夫·利文斯顿。
阿奇沃,我们公司提供创新的软件,书籍和全国研讨会帮助学区学生为大学做好准备。
One reason I started Achieva is that I realized how critical a second (oreven third) chance could be in a young person's life. The indelible memory of being counted out, then helped back in,inspired me to help others. The early lessons I learned about overcoming obstacles also gave me the confidence to chart my own course.我开始Achieva的一个原因是我意识到年轻人的生涯中第二次(甚至是第三次)机会是多么重要。
不回忆不可磨灭的记忆,然后帮助恢复,激励着我去帮助别人。
我了解到克服障碍的早期经验也给了我信心我自己的航程。
4Instead he fought for nine years, spending much of that time using his celebrity status to give speeches, awards and to raise awareness of issues important to paraplegics. Through the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Foundation, he worked non-stop to fund research that might someday yield a cure for paralysis and to help support others with disabilities who may have limited resources.他奋斗了九年,而这九年中的大部分时间,他都花在利用他的名人身份发表演说,奖励和提高认识的下身瘫痪的问题重要。
通过克里斯托弗•里夫瘫痪基金会,他不停地工作,基金研究可能在某天能治愈的残疾瘫痪和帮助他人可能有限的资源。
Reading about his experiences after his accident made me appreciate my ability to walk, run, feel, use the restroom,even to simply breath---things we all take for granted. But it had also made me realize that in this world of cynics, corruption and evil, there a re still people out there who are beacons of hope in an otherwise dreary world.读过他在遭遇事故后的种种经历,我为自己还能够走路、奔跑、感觉、上厕所,甚至仅仅为了还能够呼吸,而心存感激——这些都是我们认为理所当然的事。
