二.七选五

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

No one likes to fail.Whether it’s at work，at home，or in another area of your life，failure is painful and it can also be costly in terms of time，money，or both.__1.__ If you never suffer a failure，then you’re probably not pushing yourself to your full potential.The following are some tips on how to pick yourself up after you’ve failed.

Remember that other people fail too.__2.__They’ll tell you about that great new contract (合同) they signed，not the deal that failed eventually though they worked on it for months.But failure is normal，and lots of people fail time and time again before meeting with success.

Remind yourself of your past successes.Failing doesn’t mean that you’re worthless，or that you’ll never achieve the things you want.__3.__Maybe you had high marks last term，or you lost weight，or you learned to play a musical instrument.You might want to write down a list of successes—things that you’ve accomplished over the past few years，whether big or small.If you ever lack confidence，you can go back and read over that list.

__4.__Your past successes are important，but so are your past failures.You’ve made mistakes before，and you’ve survived them.Perhaps you did badly in an exam，or lost your temper and had to apologize.It’s not fun to think about the times when things went wrong，but by acknowledging your failures，you can remind yourself that today is no different.Just as you recovered in the past，you can recover from your recent failure too.

__5.__Whatever goes wrong，you’re probably facing some sort of decision.Don’t rush into making a hasty decision，but do look for a forward path.That might require some deep thinking.
