task 1
The starting point to change your beliefs is to get up the courage to question them seriously. Question your basic premises.Check your assumptions.Ask yourself, "What assumptions am I making about myself or my situation that might not be true?"
It's a fact that we fall in love with our excuses and our assumptions.We fall in love with our reasons for not moving ahead.Even if someone comes along and challenges those reasons,even if someone tells you that you have the capacity to accomplish marvelous things,you will argue with him.If someone tells you that you can do far better than you're doing right now, you will come up with reasons to dispute this person's greater belief in your potential.
Believing in Yourself
Your beliefs about reality are based on a thousand influences,many of which began even before you were aware of what was going on.You have beliefs that are deep and beliefs that are shallow.Deep beliefs,with regard to your religion or your political party or your family,or especially yourself,are very hand to change.Shallow beliefs are easily changed.And many of your beliefs are in fact very shallow.They have nosubstance to them whatsoever.If you challenge them hard enough.you'll find that they are made of tissue paper.They'll simply blow away.
You can always tell what your true values and beliefs are by looking at your actions.It isntt what you say or wish or hope or intend that demonstrates what you really believe.It's only what you do.It's only the behaviors that you engage in.It's only the actions that you choose to undertake.Your values and beliefs are always expressed in your actions and behaviors.
Once you've ciearly decided on the person you would like to become. you are on the path toward developing new beliefs.You then discipline yourself each day to behave exactly as you would if you were already thatperson.
That simple technique. the "act as if" technique, is extraordinarily powerful.The more you act like the person you want to be, the more consistent your attitude will be with that person's.Your attitude will havethe back-flow effect of affecting your expectations.Positive expectations will have the back-flow effect of building beliefs that are consistent with them.And your beliefs will exert an influence on your values.
People succeed not because they have remarkable characteristics or qualities.The most successful people are quite ordinary,just like you and me.Most of us start off poor and confused.We spend many years getting some sort of direction in our lives.But the turning point comes when we begin to believe that we have within us that divine spark that can lead us onward and upward to the accomplishment of anything that we really want in life.

答案：
1.[B][定位]根據題干中的happiness，satisfaction，fulfillment and joy查找到首段最后兩句。
解析：首段最后兩句重復了you'll have the key to...這個(gè)結構，表明末句也與倒數第2句開(kāi)頭的when you find your heart's desire構成條件-結果的關(guān)系，選項B就是when引出的從句表述的內容，故為本題答案。
2.[B][定位]根據題干中的unshakable，self-confidence等查找到第1個(gè)小標題Take Some Time to Determine Your Ideal Lifestyle部分的第2段最后一句。
解析：原文該段開(kāi)頭To...表明unlock your potential是一個(gè)目的，而首句的you must...和其他句子的You need to...都是達成這個(gè)目的的方式，本題題干的主語(yǔ)部分是該段末句提到的內容，也與unlock your potential構成方式-目的關(guān)系，由此可見(jiàn)，本題應選B。
3.[D][定位]根據題干中的financially independent查找到第2個(gè)小標題Momentum Is the Key to Long-Term Suecess部分的第3段開(kāi)頭兩句。
解析：原文該段第2句開(kāi)頭的To do this表明該句接下來(lái)的內容說(shuō)明了做到“經(jīng)濟獨立”的方法，選項D是對此內容的近義替代，故為本題答案。
4.[A][定位]根據題干中的objectives, only thing，prevent...going等查找到第2個(gè)小標題Momentum Is the Key to Long-Term Success部分的末段末句。
解析：要解答本題，主要是要注意題干中的prevent you from going forwards與原文該段末句中的hold you back同義，定位后即可確定本題應選A。
5.[C][定位]根據題干中的deserve good things，feelings等查找到第3個(gè)小標題What Beliefs Might You Have that Are Holding You Back?部分的首段第1句和第3句。
解析：原文該段第1句首先提到了the feelings of inferiority，該段其他句子都是“自卑感”的具體表現，其中第3句提到了題干中的don't deserve good things，這也是“自卑感”的表現之一，由此可見(jiàn)，本題應選“自卑感”，即選項C。
6.[C][定位]根據題干中的self-limiting beliefs與查找到第3個(gè)小標題What Beliefs Might You Have that Are Holding You Back?部分的第3段。
解析：該段提到自我限制的想法會(huì )使人們止步不前，因為人們會(huì )尋找各種理由來(lái)證實(shí)自己無(wú)法達成目標。C與原文表達的意思相同，A與原文意思相反，B文中未提及，D是利用文中的the state of the economy設置的干擾項。
7.[A]定位]根據題干中的change，self-limiting beliefs，start with等查找到第3個(gè)小標題What Beliefs Might You Have that Are Holding You Back?部分的第4段第1句。
解析：本題題干是對原文該句主語(yǔ)的同義改寫(xiě)，該句表明要改變你的想法，首先要做的就是question them(質(zhì)疑這些想法)，選項A與question them同義，故為本題答案。
8.[deep beliefs]
[定位]根據題干中的religion and family等查找到第4個(gè)小標題Believing in Yourself部分的首段第3句。
解析：空白處應為名詞成分。原文該句是對deep beliefs的說(shuō)明，并舉例指出有關(guān)宗教、政黨、家庭方面的觀(guān)念統屬于deep beliefs，故此空應填deep beliefs。
9.[values and beliefs]
[定位]根據題干中actions and behaviors，understand等查找到第4個(gè)小標題Believing in Yourself部分的第2段。
解析：空白處應為名詞成分。原文該段首句和末句都是總結性語(yǔ)句，表明通過(guò)觀(guān)察言行，就可知道一個(gè)人的價(jià)值觀(guān)和信仰，因此values and beliefs為本題答案。
10.[expectations,beliefs and values]
[定位]根據題干中的“act as if”technique查找到第4個(gè)小標題Believing in Yourself部分的第4段。
解析：空白處應為名詞成分。該段表明，the“act as if”technique產(chǎn)生的影響是連鎖的，而該段最后三句里均有與affect同義的詞：affecting，effect，influence，表明這個(gè)technique對這3句中提到的expectations，beliefs和values都會(huì )產(chǎn)生影響。
