[解析]
(1)推理判断题。文章开头A personal development plan is a way to set goals,gain insight (洞察力) into yourself and your skills,and determine a career or life change. (个人发展计划是一种设定目标、深入了解自己和自己的技能、决定职业或生活变化的方法。)提到个人发展计划的用处;上文It can be tough to gather motivation and think positively when you are trying to decide whereto steer (引导) your life. (当你试图决定人生的方向时,很难找到动力并积极思考)提出了在决定生活方向时遇到的问题;下文介绍了如何制订个人发展规划;D选项"Then mapping out a plan and timeline will be beneficial(制定一个计划和时间表将是有益的)"针对上文的问题给出了建议,且与下文详细阐述的"如何制订个人发展规划"一致。故选D。
(2)细节理解题。上文Think of the areas where you receive complains or praise(想想你在哪些方面收到了抱怨或表扬。)建议想想在哪些方面被抱怨或表扬;下文An example of praise might be your boss telling you that you are good at time management(表扬的一个例子可能是你的老板告诉你你擅长时间管理。)举了一个受表扬的例子;G选项"For example,have you received ill remarks from someone about not being a good listener?(例如,你是否收到过别人对你不好的评价,说你不是一个好的倾听者?)"举例说明可能会受抱怨的事情,选项中的"received ill remarks"与上文中的"receive complains"一致,故选G。
(3)段落大意题。下文What do you enjoy doing?And what have you done well?(你喜欢做什么?你做得好的方面是什么? )问喜欢什么以及什么做得很好;E选项"Ask yourself about the areas in which you have been successful.(问问自己在哪些领域取得了成功。)"中的"ask"与下文的两个问句相对应,"the areas in which you have been successful"与下文的"what have you done well"表达内容一致。故选E。
(4)推理判断题。上文Be specific and ambitious. (要具体,要雄心勃勃)说明了如何写最终目标;B选项"In addition,include an initial action in each item.(此外,在每个项目中包含初步行动)"承接上文继续阐述关于如何写最终目标,与上文为递进关系;下文For example,if one focus involves improving your public speaking sill,an action might be to give a 15﹣minute speech in public. (例如,如果你重点要提高你的公共演讲技巧,那么一个行动可能是在公共场合发表15分钟的演讲。)运用具体的例子说明目标除了要写的很具体之外,还应包含初步的行动计划,选项中的"an initial action"与此句中的"an action"相呼应。故选B。
(5)推理判断题。上文Create a timeline.(设立时间线)建议设立时间线,C选项"Set deadlines for your short﹣term and long﹣term goals.(为你的短期和长期目标设定最后期限。)"承接 上文具体阐述设立时间线,下文When setting the deadline,be ambitious,but also consider the time that you will have.(在设定最后期限时,要雄心勃勃,但也要考虑到你将拥有的时间。)进一步阐述如何设立最后期限,选项中的"Set deadlines"与下文中的"setting the deadline"一致,所以C选项符合语意。故选C。
