for his wit, wisdom, civic duty, and abundant
courage.
2 They were thought to be slow
learners in childhood, but they overcame their

difficulties
and
made
magnificent
discoveries
that
benefit
the
entire
world today.
3 His strong will.
4 It
means to keep their focus on achieving a positive
end result, instead of
letting small
problems get in the way of good results.

Because
they
have
the
will
to
overcome
profound
obstacles
and
to
work
diligently
in the pursuit of
their goals, and have the passion for success.
6 Because firms preferred to hire less
qualified men rather than risk hiring
a
female lawyer, which was unprecedented.
7 We should never give up on our dream,
and one day we can change the world and
make it a better place.

The
secret
of
success
is
built
upon
a
burning
inward
desire---a
robust,
fierce
will
and
focus---
that
fuels
the
determination
to
act,
to
keep
preparing,
to
keep
going even when we are
tired and fail.

success. But

it does not
matter. What matters is whether you can summon
up(
鼓起
)all your
courage again and again to face the
hardships standing in the way of success.
2 Luck, talent, good relationships with
your colleagues, etc.
3 When I have
realized that I am pursuing something that is hard
to achieve,
I would try to stick to the
goal. But l will begin to think of what I can do
to improve the situation. When it still
doesn't work, I would try to analyze
what the problem is and then make
some
changes
and
probably reset my goal. Yes,
sometimes
we are pursuing the wrong goal which can never be
achieved, only to
find ourselves in
deep frustration and profound fatigue. In this
situation, I
may give up the wrong goal
and set up another goal that is achievable.
4 Following the guidance of senior
people.

Getting

Setting a

Achieving success step by step.

1 To overcome the
inner fear of water, we need to:
?
conquer
ourselves with courage by helping others, step up
and face our
fear;
?
practice
controlled breathing and alternately tense and
relax muscle
groups to bring into
physical awareness the differences between being
tense and being relaxed;
?
make the victim
stop struggling. In this way he / she can be
pulled to
safety.
2 The
fears may come from:
?
our own past experience;
?
other people's
fears we witness;
?
someone's description about their
fears;
?
influence of specific cultural and
historical context.

with confidence:
?
Tell the guy to ask a girl on a casual

Explain to him that asking a girl out face-to-face

it

Encourage
the

to
be
assertive

Confidence
is admirable, and
a girl is more likely to be attracted to a man
with
confidence.
If
he

asking
the
girl

he
should
speak
as

If

Obsessive
fear
leads
to
anxiety,
panic
attacks
and
a
variety
of
psychological
problems. We
all know what it's like to feel overwhelmed by
fear, but fear, as
it turns out, is a
fundamental part
of
our
lives, and has some
positive
effects
on our lives:
?
Fear increases and enhances our sensory
awareness of the environment,
so
that
we
can
be
prepared
to
protect
ourselves
from
anything
potentially
threatening or
harmful.
?
Fear
is an invitation to act. Fear is there to warn us
that we need to
get ready for the
future. It isn't there to stop us; it's there to
tell
us that we are about to grow.
?
Fear
pushes
us
beyond
our
limits.
Fear
motivates
us.
It
drives
us
to
find
new
resources
and
options
within
ourselves.
Fear
compels
us
to
make
extra
efforts to succeed and achieve what we
desire.
DOC

?
Fear
is
necessary
in
developing
our
courage.
We
can't
experience
courage
without
the
presence
of
fear.

Realizing
the
great
national
rejuvenation,
which
we
define
as
the
Chinese
Dream,
has
been
the
greatest
Chinese
expectation
since
modem
times.
It
basically
means
achieving prosperity for the country,
renewal of the nation and happiness for
the people, thus ensuring that every
enterprising Chinese carries, generation
after
generation,
the
firm
conviction
that
a
better
life
is
accomplished
through
persistent effort. People should
achieve their prosperity through diligence,
courage,
creativity
and
determination
instead
of
aid
from
society
or
other
people.
Each individual is a participant and a
designer in the cause of realizing the
Chinese Dream, for it is a dream not
only for the entire nation but also for
every Chinese.

1·Love
generates
strength
and
confidence
which
help
to
overcome
our
inner
fear.
Love
is
able
to
bring
into
full
play
the
most
courageous
acts
in
the
world,
and love can conquer our inner fear.
Becoming a more loving person
toward others will help you to transcend
your
fear.
Becoming
more
loving
toward
yourself
will
help
you
to
heal
your
fear.
2
Apart
from
love,
I
believe,
there
are
many
other
factors
that
can
help
us
cope
with
challenges in life. Some of them are listed as
follows:
?
Confidence
may
strengthen
our
determination
to
handle
any
difficulties we are confronted with.
DOC
版本
?
A sense of purpose in our life is
critical when we feel lost under
the
great pressure of troubles.
?
A strong social
network is also useful. Maybe our problems could
be
easily solved by the joint efforts
from our social network composed
of
relatives, friends, colleagues, etc
?
Optimism can
always make us filled with hope, helping us muster
courage when we are tortured by
frustrations.
?
Necessary problem-solving skills
and strategies are most crucial
to
our performance when we
are facing challenges.
3 Tips to keep
fear away during exams:
?
Prepare well in advance and do not mug
up(
突击学习
).
?
Make time to
relax.
?
Revise
properly. In order to prevent anxiety, the last
few weeks before
the examination should
be spent revising each subject.
?
Be
flexible
during
the
exam.
During
the
exam,
if
you
get
tensed
or
blank
after
seeing difficult questions, skip them for the time
being and
attempt
questions
which
you
find
easier.
Once
you
have
completed
them,
go back to the
difficult ones. In this way, you will be able to
answer
them confidently.
4
The following are something that can be done to
help overcome fear:
?
It can be
important
to visit with a
qualified
therapist who
can help
the
survivor identify the root causes of the fear and
address those
DOC
版本
underlying
reasons for the fear response.
?
Support groups
can be helpful as can a trusted friend who extends
compassion
in
the
face
of
the
survivor's
fear.
This
type
of
response
can go a long way
in helping victims work through their fear.

Obsessive
fear
leads
to
anxiety,
panic
attacks
and
a
variety
of
psychological
problems. We
all know what it's like to feel overwhelmed by
fear, but fear, as
it turns out, is a
fundamental part
of
our
lives, and has some
positive effects
on our
lives:
?
Fear
increases and enhances our sensory awareness of
the environment,
so
that
we
can
be
prepared
to
protect
ourselves
from
anything
potentially
threatening or
harmful.
?
Fear
is an invitation to act. Fear is there to warn us
that we need to
get ready for the
future. It isn't there to stop us; it's there to
tell
us that we are about to grow.
?
Fear
pushes
us
beyond
our
limits.
Fear
motivates
us.
It
drives
us
to
find
new
resources
and
options
within
ourselves.
Fear
compels
us
to
make
extra
efforts to succeed and achieve what we
desire.
?
Fear
is
necessary
in
developing
our
courage.
We
can't
experience
courage
without
the
presence
of
fear.
They

light, or black and white.

美国梦是美利坚合众国的民族精神。该词有各种各样的用法,但其根本含义是,在美国
任何人都可以通过努力获得成功,
都有可能过上幸福而成功的生活口许多
人对美国梦的
概念加以拓展和提炼,涵盖了像自由,自我实现和深厚的人际关系等方面的

的思想比美

17
世纪,当时的欧洲移民面对这一新发现的、
未经开发

开始纷纷怀揣希望,
追逐梦想。
随着历史的发展,
美国梦的含义也已改变,

Realizing
the
great
national
rejuvenation,
which
we
define
as
the
Chinese
Dream,
has
been
the
greatest
Chinese
expectation
since
modem
times.
It
basically
means
achieving prosperity for the country,
renewal of the nation and happiness for
the people, thus ensuring that every
enterprising Chinese carries, generation
after
generation,
the
firm
conviction
that
a
better
life
is
accomplished
through
persistent effort. People should
achieve their prosperity through diligence,
courage,
creativity
and
determination
instead
of
aid
from
society
or
other
people.
Each individual is a participant and a
designer in the cause of realizing the
Chinese Dream, for it is a dream not
only for the entire nation but also for
every Chinese.

there is something wrong

we can infer

all

that the plane would crash.
