完形填空。
Being content with yourself and optimistic about your future is not difficult. Whatever is in the
past is
1 .Learn from it and move on. When you are
2 enough to do this, you will see that
moving ahead is the best definition of living
3 .
What can you do now? Sure it is
4 for me to tell you to forget the past,
5 it is a whole
6 to actually do it. Life is a complex set of events, much of which
7 is real, but a large amount
is just your
8 of what really happened.
Let me
9 with an example. I know not everyone is a football fan, but I am
10 most have
watched at least
11 of a game on TV. Most games and almost all the important games are
12 over
and over on the TV screen right after the game happened.
When you watched a game, you were
13 of the outcome, saying the player
14 the ball. Then while
watching the instant replay, you realized you were
15 wrong. The player dropped the pass. What you
were certain of never happened.
In order to
16 on your future, you should try to minimize the effects of your past. Try to find out
how much of the past that you are certain are just
17 . For example, as a teenager, you tried to build
a piece of furniture in your father's workshop. The piece of furniture looked
18 when you finished, but
it fell apart before you could
19 it to your father. The reality was that the wood you used was faulty. It
was not your building ability. So don't think yourself to be a
20 carpenter (木匠) and avoid building
anything. Forget the past and move on.
