How to Get What I Want?
There’s an expression: “What you see is what you get.” My grandfather used to say: “If you looked at a tree long enough, it will move.” We see what we want to see. Psychologists tell us that nothing controls our lives more than our self-image. We live like the person we see in the mirror. We are what we think we are. If you don’t think you’ll be successful, you won’t. You can’t be it if you can’t see it. Your life is limited to your vision. If you want to change your life, you must change your vision of your life.
Arnold Schwarzenegger was not that famous in 1976 when he met with a newspaper reporter. The reporter asked Schwarzenegger: “Now that you’ve retired from bodybuilding, what do you plan to do next?” Schwarzenegger answered very calmly and confidently: “I’m going to be the No. 1 movie star in Hollywood.” The reporter was shocked and amused at Schwarzenegger’s plan. At that time, it was very hard to imagine how this muscle-bound bodybuilder, who was not a professional actor and who spoke poor English with a strong Austrian accent, could ever hope to be Hollywood’s No. 1 movie star!
So when the reporter asked Schwarzenegger how he planned to make his dream come true, Schwarzenegger said: “I’ll do it the same way I became the No. 1 bodybuilder in the world. What I do was create a vision of who I want to be, and then I start living like that person in my mind as if it were already true.” Sounds almost childishly simple, doesn’t it? But I worked! Schwarzenegger became the No. 1 highest paid movie star in Hollywood. Remember: “If you can see it, you can be it.”
There’s a successful businessman who often wears a shirt with these words on it: “Don’t just pursue your dreams. Chase down and tackle! ” you only get one life to live, so why not live the best life possible? So you can be fully satisfied at what you see and get.

解析

试题分析：这是一篇非常具有哲理性的文章，开始是说，你看到了什么你就能够成就什么，你有什么样的理想就能成为什么样的人。并且以Arnold Schwarzenegger为榜样，在退休之后，他有着瞥脚的英语和不专业的表演技能，却要去成为好莱坞最好的演员。一篇很励志的文章。
小题1:B细节理解题。Now that you’ve retired from bodybuilding, what do you plan to do next句意为：既然你已经从健美的工作退休了，接下来有什么打算呢？由此可以看出原来他的工作是健美。故答案应为B。
小题2:B细节理解题。it was very hard to imagine how this muscle-bound bodybuilder, who was not a professional actor and who spoke poor English with a strong Austrian accent, could ever hope to be Hollywood’s No. 1 movie star! 对于一个非专业的演员，操一口带有浓重的奥地利口音的英语，要成为一句演员是非常困难的。所以答案应为B。
小题3:C细节理解题。And then I start living like that person in my mind as if if were already true.句意为：然后我就开始过我思想当中的那个人的生活，就好像它是真的一样。他想当一名演员，所以他要想演员一样生活。故答案应为C。
小题4:A细节理解题。There’s a successful businessman who often wears a shirt with these words on it: “Don’t just pursue your dreams. Chase down and tackle! ” you only get one life to live, so why not live the best life possible? So you can be fully satisfied at what you see and get.一个成功的商人穿的衬衫上写着这么一句话，_________. 你仅仅有一种生活，因此为什么不过一种有可能的更好的生活呢。所以横线上的意思应该是，不要仅仅去追逐梦想，要停下来想想怎么去做去追求，所以答案应为A，有梦想并且想办法去实现他。
