一．

Where there is a will, there is a way.

This proverb means that if you are really determined to do something, however difficult it
might be, you will 1)------(eventually) find a way to do it well.


The 2)------(premier) point is that you must have the will to achieve success.



Ninety percent of the failures that occur are due to the fact that there is no strong will involved.
Many
people
simply
say
that
they
want
something,
but
they
do
not
make
any
3)------
(endeavor) to achieve it.

So, instead of getting it, they use the poorest excuse to explain the situation away.



On
many
occasions,
people
tend
to
4)------(bypass)
every
minute
obstacle,
making
the
objective impossible to attain.

In reality, if they have the will to succeed, they can get rid of the 5)------(handicaps) and
achieve their goals.



Only those with a(n) 6)------(committed) and focused will and spirit can fight their way to
final victory.

Many a famous man has the same experience.


They
have
7)------(attained)
their
prestige
because
they
have
had
the
will
to
8)----
(transcend) apparently insuperable (
无法克服的
) obstacles.


Many
artists,
statesmen,
writers
and
inventors
have
managed
to
succeed
because
they
possess a fierce will, which has helped them to accomplish major 9)------(feats).



Therefore, we can see that the main thing which one needs is a strong will.

Weak-willed people never climb to the top.


They collapse at the 10)------(slightest) use of force against them.

Strong-willed people, on the other hand, will stand up against all odds and will make it a
point to succeed.



二．

Social anxiety symptoms often begin during adolescence.

It's
a
developmental
process
that
is
1)------(characterized)
by
profound
psychological
changes, especially in terms of how we relate to others.


One of the most frustrating 2)------(aspects) of the adolescent years is the tendency for self-
focus and a decrease in the 3)------(amount) of focus we have for the feelings and needs of
others.




While these changes are fairly universal, those of us who were born with a shy temperament
(
性格
) can carry the adolescent fears, which may never 4)------(recede) , into adulthood.


An anxious temperament causes our brains to react forcibly when 5)------(exposed) to the
stress of sudden awareness of our peers and gradually we become more and more vulnerable.
Our brains label the fear of exposure or embarrassment as highly dangerous.


This may result in a(n) 6)------(vicious) circle for many years: excessive self- consciousness
and inhibition when we feel we are being observed.




To cope with the problem, I would like to 7)------(challenge) you to strive for increased focus
on other people, in place of your 8)------(excessive) focus on yourself.

Yes, I know, this is easier said than done.

The fear may cause you to feel that you will lose control or make a fool of yourself when you
are in the spotlight (
聚光灯
).

But if you begin to build a new response, in 9)------(reaction) to your fears, you will gradually
build up a stronger and more positive response.


Remember, don't let self-consciousness 10)------(paralyze) you! Be courageous!









三．

Audrey Hepburn was a beautiful actress and model, who became one of the most successful
and well-known actresses in the film 1)------(domain).



She was a fashion icon and role model for women all over the world, helping to 2)------
(define) a particular type of fresh, vulnerable, elfin (
小精灵似的
) beauty.


Today's 3)------(popularity) of the slim fashion model is due to Audrey Hepburn's influence.
Although she appeared frail (
脆弱的
), she was 4)------(mentally) strong.


At
the
end
of
her
acting
career
when
she
entered
a(n)
5)------(diplomatic)
career
as
a
Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF, she was so solidly 6)------(committed) to her cause that
she was held in highest esteem (
尊重
) by even the most hardened politicians.



Audrey originally started working for UNICEF in 1954, doing radio presentations.

She always said it was happy to 7)------(devote) her life to helping impoverished (
穷困的
)


children
after
her
own
good
fortune
in
8)------(surviving)
the
hardship
of
the
Nazi
occupation of Holland.

She began her permanent ambassadorship in 1988 and 9)------(embarked) on trips to many
countries.

She
was
always
positive:

in
these
places
don't
know
Audrey
Hepburn,
but
they
recognize the name UNICEF. When they see UNICEF their faces light up, because they know
that something is happening.


In 1992, her 10)------(humanitarian) work with those in need was recognized when she was
awarded the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and
Sciences for her contribution to humanity.
