14.D

15.A【分析】本文是一篇記敘文。主要講述的是美好生活的含義以及獲得美好生活的具體方法。作者通過本文告訴我們：想要獲得美好的生活，需要我們簡化生活、付出努力、掌控自己的思想、做重要的事并從現(xiàn)在出發(fā)?！?1題詳解】考查對上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。由上句“Stopsettingyourselfupforstressandfailure.”走出憂慮和失敗?？芍伴_始安排自己的生活，迎接成功和從容”符合題意，分析選項可知B項符合題意?！?2題詳解】考查對上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。根據(jù)“Peopleoftenmisunderstandwhatsimplifymeans.”可知，人們通常對簡化有誤解。結(jié)合后文“Whenyoufocusonsimplifyingyourlife,youfreeupenergyandtimefortheworkthatyouenjoyandthepurposeforwhichyouarehere.”對簡化生活的正確理解就是“你就會有時間和精力從事喜歡的工作，并為之奮斗?！笨芍?，此處是對簡化生活的錯誤理解，即“簡化不是…”。分析選項可知E項符合題意，故選E?！?3題詳解】考查對上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。根據(jù)本空前的內(nèi)容“非凡的人生就是在專注?？纯粗車切┝钅懔w慕的人的生活吧！看自己能從他們身上學到些什么？向他們請教”，根據(jù)“向你羨慕的人請教”，那么你就能找到方法來精力集中到更重要的事情上。分析選項可知G項符合題意?！?4題詳解】考查對上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。本段的中心句是“Agreatlifeistheresultofyouradjustments.”美好的生活是你調(diào)整的結(jié)果。adjustments調(diào)整即是改變，也就是D項中的“makesomechanges”且本段中的“thinkingaboutagain…inadifferentway.”及“l(fā)ookingfornewways”這些詞都指向“makesomechanges”，故選D項?！?5題詳解】考查對上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。本空是一段的主題句?！癮journeyofathousandmilesbeginswithasinglestep（千里之行始于足下）”中的“beginwith”及“youhavetostart.There’snobettertimetostartthantoday”中的start可知，這是與A項（Agreatlifeistheresultofstarting）中start是詞的復現(xiàn)。而A項的意思為“美好的生活是開始的結(jié)果”符合題意，故選A?！军c睛】七選五旨在考查學生對全文整體理解和對信息辨析的能力，做此題時首先需要先了解文章的整體結(jié)構(gòu)，弄清文章大意，然后再把7個備選項瀏覽一下，最后再綜合上下文進行推理判斷。通過通讀全文，了解到文章主要講述的是美好生活的含義以及獲得美好生活的具體方法。作者通過本文告訴我們：想要獲得美好的生活，需要我們簡化生活、付出努力、掌控自己的思想、做重要的事并從現(xiàn)在出發(fā)。然后再結(jié)合上下文進行選擇。例如，第2題，根據(jù)“Peopleoftenmisunderstandwhatsimplifymeans.”可知，人們通常對簡化有誤解。結(jié)合后文“Whenyoufocusonsimplifyingyourlife,youfreeupenergyandtimefortheworkthatyouenjoyandthepurposeforwhichyouarehere.”對簡化生活的正確理解可知，此處是對簡化生活的錯誤理解。故選E其次要精讀空格前后兩句，利用各種銜接手段選擇正確的選項填入空格。七選五空出的是整個句子，而這些句子與句子之間，必然有一種聯(lián)系，因此我們可以通過選項中某個名詞或動詞跟空前或空后的一致性或者相關(guān)性來確定這兩個句子之間有一種關(guān)聯(lián)性，從而選擇正確的答案。如第3小題，根據(jù)本空前的內(nèi)容“非凡的人生就是在專注。看看周圍那些令你羨慕的人的生活吧！看自己能從他們身上學到些什么？向他們請教”，根據(jù)“向你羨慕的人請教，可知，你就能找到方法來精力集中到更重要的事情上。分析選項可知G項符合題意。同時也要看選項，找出與空前空后句中心詞同義，近義或相關(guān)性的詞語。實現(xiàn)關(guān)鍵詞的對接。此外要通過句子的邏輯關(guān)系或句子的標點來判斷該句在文章的位置。通過閱讀選項，有可能根據(jù)選項中的關(guān)鍵詞找出正確選項。如第5小題。本空是一段的主題句?！癮journeyofathousandmilesbeginswithasinglestep（千里之行始于足下）”中的“beginwith”及“youhavetostart.There’snobettertimetostartthantoday”中的start可知，這是與A項（Agreatlifeistheresultofstarting）中start是詞的復現(xiàn)。而A項的意思為“美好的生活是開始的結(jié)果”符合題意，故選A。三、閱讀理解21..閱讀理解閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D項中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
