Always Changing Mark is leaving, and I’m feeling kind of sad. You probably don’t know Mark, but you might be lucky enough 36 someone just like him. He’s been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years combining 37 professional skills with a sweet and gentle nature. And now he’s moving on to an exciting new professional 38 . It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime, and we’re 39 for him. But that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye to him. Life has a way of throwing these curve(曲线)balls 40 us. Just when we start to get comfortable with a person, a place or a situation, something comes along to 41 the recipe. Our ability to cope with change 42 to a great degree, our peace, happiness and contentment in life. But how do we do that? A friend of mine is fond of reminding us that“survivability depends upon 43 .”And then there’s Chris the California surf-rat, who once told me that the answer to life’s problems can be 44 in four words:“Go with the flow.” I’m not exactly sure , but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of 45 —both good and bad . No matter how excellent your skill , there will always be life-influencing factors over which you have no 46 . The truly successful person expects the unexpected, and is prepared to 47 adjustments should the need arise-as it almost 48 does. That doesn't mean you don't keep trying to make all your 49 come true．It just means that when things come up that aren't 50 in your plan，you work around them—and then you move on。 “Change，indeed，is painful， 51 ever needful，”said philosopher Thomas Carlyle．“And if memory has its force and worth，so also has 52 .” we're going to miss Mark. But rather than stay on the 53 of our parting，we'll focus on our hopes for a brighter future－for him，and for us．And then we'll go out and 54 everything we can to make that future happen． 55 our plans change--again. 小题1: A．know B．greet C．imagine D．recognize 小题2: A．extra B．good C．correct D．precise 小题3: A．agreement B．destination C．experience D．opportunity 小题4: A．pleased B．pity C．anxious D．curious 小题5: A．on B．with C．at D．in 小题6: A．provide B．use C．change D．try 小题7: A．produce B．determine C．protect D．preserve 小题8: A．habit B．communication C．belief D．adaptability 小题9: A．summed up B．held up C．made up D．put up 小题10: A．accidents B．records C．events D．problems 小题11: A．difference B．control C．power D．trouble 小题12: A．take B．have C．get D．make 小题13: A．always B．never C．already D．seldom 小题14: A．decisions B．promises C．dreams D．solutions 小题15: A．eventually B．exactly C．immediately D．surprisingly 小题16: A．yet B．also C．even D．still 小题17: A．future B．parting C．attempt D．hope 小题18: A．complaint B．attention C．sadness D．sympathy 小题19: A．do B．demand C．face D．seize 小题20: A．Until B．Before C．If D．After
