Victor Frankl，the author of Mans Search far Meaning，once wrote， "'Everything can be taken from a person but one thing：the last of human freedoms-to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances．" Frankl was right．Attitude is a choice．You could be faced with a thousand problems，many or most over which you have absolutely no control．However，there is always one thing you are in complete and absolute control of and that is your own attitude．
To be honest，it wasn't until I was in my late 20s that I finally understood its full impact．All through my teens and into my early adult life，I can't tell you the number of times that I heard， "Bob，if you'd just change your attitude，you would do a lot better．" At that time，I didn't know what attitude was，let alone know how to change it!
Attitude and results are inseparable，They follow one another as night follows day．One is the cause，while the other，the result．There is a term we use to distinguish this "cause and effect " relationship，which is called The Law of Cause and Effect．Simply stated，if you think in negative terms，you will get negative results；if you think in positive terms，you will achieve positive results．Some people always see wrong things in the world．These individuals are quick to blame circumstances or other people for their problems，rather than accepting responsibility for their life and their attitude．Thus，it would appear as if they were born with bad luck and it has followed them around their whole life．However，there are others who are forever winning and living the good life．They are the real movers and shakers who make things happen．They seem to go from one major accomplishment to another．They're in control of their life．Their wins are a matter of choice．
You can experience that kind of life as well，you only need to decide．Dorothea Brand once said， "Act as if it were impossible to fail， " and I challenge you to do so．By simply becoming aware that you can choose your thoughts each and every day，you will change your entire outlook．You have the power to choose an abundant life no matter what your circumstances are．Don't wait to experience all the wonderful things the universe has in store for you．Start today by working on your attitude and welcome the abundant life that you are meant to lead．

1．For several days Ⅰ（Jane Eyre） saw little of Mr.Rochester.One evening，I was invited to talk to him after dinner.There was a smile on his lips，and his eyes were shining brightly.As I was looking at him，he suddenly turned around and asked me， "Do you think I'm handsome，Miss Eyre？"
The answer somehow slipped from my tongue before I realized it： "No，sir."
"Ah，you are really unusual!You look like a quiet，serious little person，but you can be almost rude."
"Sir，I'm sorry.I shouldn't have given an immediate answer to such a question about appearances；I should have said that beauty doesn't matter，or something like that."
"No，you shouldn't!I see，you criticize my appearance，and then you stick a sly penknife under my ear!You have honesty and feeling.There are not many girls like you.Perhaps you have awful faults to counterbalance（抵消） your few good points."
I thought to myself that he might have too.He seemed to read my mind，and said quickly， "Yes，you're right.I have plenty of faults.I went the wrong way when I was twenty-one，and have never found the right path again.I might have been as good as you，and perhaps wiser.I am not a bad man，take my word for it，but I have done wrong.It wasn't my character，but circumstances that were to blame.Why do I tell you all this？Because you're the sort of person people tell their problems and secrets to，because you're sympathetic and you give them hope."
"Don't be afraid of me，Miss Eyre，" he continued." You don't relax or laugh very much，perhaps because of the effect Lowood has had on you.But in time you will be more natural when you're with me，and laugh，and speak freely.You're like a bird in a cage.When you get out of the cage，you'll fly very high.Good night."
（1）Why did Mr.Rochester say "and then you stick a sly penknife under my ear" in paragraph 5？

3．To me，life without music would not be exciting．I realize that this is not true for everybody．Many people get along quite well without going to the concert，and listening to the record．But music plays an important part in everyone's life，whether he realizes it or not．Try to imagine，for example，what films or TV plays would be like without music．Would the feelings，the moving plot，and the greatest interests，be so exciting or dramatic？I'm not sure about it．
Now，we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning----the kind of music we hear in the concert hall．But if we look at some parts of music more closely，we discover them in our everyday life too----in the rhythm of the sea，the melody of a bird in the woods and so on．So music surely has meaning for everyone，in some way or other．And，of course，it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music．
It is well said， "Through music a child enters into a world of beauty，expresses himself from his heart，feels the joy of doing things alone，learns to take care of others，develops his mind and makes his body strong．"
（1）What does the writer say more about in the text？
A．Life full of music．
B．The importance of music．
C．Life without music．
D．The development of music．
（2）From the text，we learn that many people．
A．go to the concert instead of enjoying music
B．get along quite well without music
C．don't realize the importance of music
D．think music would be less exciting than films
（3）What does the underlined word "melody" mean in the text？
A．flying
B．living
C．looking
D．singing
（4）From the last paragraph，we learn that music．
A．is very necessary for our everyday life
B．is very important，especially for children
C．can make our life exciting and dramatic
D．can enter another beautiful world發(fā)布：2025/1/1 18:0:1組卷：6引用：3難度：0.6
