Goals can help you do, be and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.
Successful and happy people have an idea of how their life should be and they set lots of goals to help them succeed. By setting goals you are taking control of your life. It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind which is laid out for her on a map. She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns. The other driver has no goal or destination or map. She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives without an aim around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas and oil. Which driver do you want to be？
Winners in life set goals and follow through on them. Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. Goals aren’t difficult to set, and they aren’t difficult to reach. It’s up to you to find out what your goals and ideals（理想）really are.
Research tells us that when we write a goal down, we are more likely to achieve. Written goals can be reviewed regularly，and have more power. Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to neglect（忽视）or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself be continuously alert（警觉）to situations that will further your goals.

A. the successful people set goals for everything and can get help from others

C. the successful people set goals in their lives and make plans to carry it out
D. the unsuccessful people make plans for everything but can not work hard
63.According to the passage, the most important thing in realizing one’s ideal is
to .
A. try to be realistic about one’s ability
B. let others help him or her to make his or her dream come true
C. let others understand him or her first，then work together with them

C
Yu Pengnian is an 88-year-old real estate Chinese businessman. He amassed(积聚) a fortune of $1.3 billion dollars during his career but instead of keeping the money and living like an emperor, he decided to give it all away. All of his fortune will be spent on helping poor Chinese students get a better education.
And Yu isn’t the only super-rich person in China who has this spirit of giving. Chen Guangbiao, a Jiangsu recycling tycoon, has given millions of dollars to charity (慈善)and promises to give all of his money to charity when he dies.
　　 Yu and Chen are among the many businessmen who have become prosperous during China’s economic rise. An American business magazine, Forbes, estimates that there are 117 billionaires in China and hundreds of thousands of millionaires. What sets Yu and Chen apart from the rest, though, is their tremendous generosity(慷慨，大方) when it comes to donating money to charity.
　　 Last week Bill Gates and Warren Buffett came to Beijing. Gates and Buffett, two of the world’s richest men, are also the world’s biggest philanthropists. They invited fifty of China’s richest people to have dinner with them and talk about the spirit of giving. At first, only a few people accepted their invitation. It seemed some of the invited guests were afraid that Buffett and Gates were going to pressure them into giving their wealth to charity.
　　A lot of people are angry at the billionaires who are not willing to give away their fortunes. They criticize them for being miserly and not caring about the poor and the less fortunate. But I think this criticism is wrong. A gift, any gift, should come from the heart. Instead of criticism, these reluctant billionaires should be encouraged to follow the examples of Yu Pengnian and Chen Guangbiao. Encouragement is always a better strategy than criticism. As we say in English, “You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.”
66. Yu Pengnian will spend all of his fortune in _______
A. helping poor Chinese students get a better education
B. helping the students in earthquake-stricken area
C. helping his off-springs lead a rich life in the future
D. achieve his aim of living like an emperor

A. Yu Pengnian is the only super-rich person in China who has the spirit of giving.
B. Chen Guangbiao is a real estate Chinese businessman.
C. Yu and Chen become wealth during the rise of China’s economy.
D.When Bill Gates and Warren Buffett invited fifty of China’s richest people to have dinner with them, they all felt honored and accepted their invitation at once.
68. What sets Yu and Chen apart from other rich people in China?
A. When it comes to charity work, they are very generous.
B. They had dinner with Bill Gates and Warren Buffett, talking about the spirit of giving.
C. They are pressured into giving their fortune to charity.
D. They are both businessmen.
69.According to passage, why does the author end the passage with the English
saying “You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar”?
A. The author wants to tell us that flies prefer honey to vinegar.
B. The author wants to prove that encouragement is always a better strategy than criticism when it comes to charity.
C. The English saying expresses the main theme of the passage.
D. The author wants to criticize those billionaires who are not willing to give away their fortunes and not caring about the poor and the less fortunate.
70.Which phrase in the following can be used to take the place of the underlined word “criticize” in the last paragraph.
A. show their respect to
B. have bad comments on
C. show their thanks to
