I happened to be at a local Walmart picking up some stuff for my wife when I laid my eyes on two young ladies. They were walking confidently, with their heads held high, which made me believe that they were involved in some kind of competitive sport. They were wearing T-shirts, at the back of which printed, Pain is temporary, but pride is forever. Thinking of these words, I automatically said to myself, Thats right! No pain, no gain.Whatever is worth having is worth fighting for, and with fight, there comes pain! Fortunately, pain is just temporary. However, it is a necessary step you need to take to get your gain.Athletes and their coaches understand this so well. They spend so many hours and so much effort preparing for a competition. Some will think about giving up when the training is so painful, but coaches are there to remind them that quitters never win and winners never quit. So they know that when victory comes, they will be proud of themselves and that pride can last a lifetime.Youve probably heard the saying, Theres no such thing as a free lunch. Well, it is true. Everything in life has a price, whether you agree or not. To want something for free will always lead to deception. Even if you get it, you will not value it or enjoy it, because it is free.No one has told you that life is easy! In fact it is a series of struggles and fights. You will achieve what other people call impossible only when you are willing to endure pain and overcome fear and doubt. Your achievement in life is in direct proportion to how much sacrifice you are willing to make.Successful people are usually and wrongly labeled as lucky or highly favored by circumstances. However, if you hear their personal stories, you will realize that they went through a lot of trials, but still kept on going, enduring the pain to make where they are today. If we understand that every effect has its cause, then we will grasp the fact that we do have a chance to influence the outcome we get in life. 36. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Athletes are too proud to give up. B. Gain is necessary for getting your pain. C. If you get something free, you will not treasure it. D. The author noticed the two ladies because they were having a competition.37. What can we learn from Paragraph 5? A. Life is short. B. Life is meaningful. C. Life is colorful. D. Life is tough.38. From the last paragraph we know that_. A. success comes from perseverance B. success comes from taking risks or chances C. successful people are often looked down upon D. successful people are never regarded as lucky dogs39. Which part of a website is the passage probably taken from? A. Culture. B. Education. C. Sports. D. Entertainment.40. Whats the best title for the passage? A. No pain, no gain. B. Pride is forever. C. Pain is temporary. D. Successful people are lucky.【参考答案】36-40 CDABA 伤痛是短暂的，荣耀是永恒的。只有先苦才能后甜。轻易得到的东西是不会被珍惜的。36. C。细节理解题。从第四段最后一句.you will not value it or enjoy it, because it is free.可知答案。37.
