In the long run,these new goals could become a habit.96. The writer thinks taht setting weight lose is a mistake because_.A.it is easier to achieve for most AmericansB.it pays too much attention to the resultC.it is a long and difficult processD.it is a practical resolution97. In Roland Fryers research,some students did better than the others because_.A.they followed all the common rulesB.they paid more attention to examsC.they were encouraged by their classmatesD.they had a well-set task98. According to the writer,which of the following statements is a good goal?A.Ill watch a movie with my family every Satutday.B.”Ill study harder.”C.“Ill cut down my spending.D.“Ill make more money.99. The writer strongly believes that we should_.A.develop good habits and focus on the outcomeB.be positive about final goals and stick to themC.pick exact actions that can be turned into good habitsD.set big goals that c
