Challenges are part of life and something we can all expect to encounter at one point or another during our lifetime. We handle challenges differently;some of us choose to face them head-on, while others flee in uncertainty. 1 The following are simple methods and strategies we can all employ to overcome challenges more effectively.
2 Nike couldn’t have said it any better with their slogan, "Just do it! "Some challenges require us to do just that. Grab the bull by its horns and have the courage to conquer it, no matter how unsure we might feel. Some challenges are urgent and require immediate attention, leaving us with no option but to go ahead full-steam.
Educate ourselves. The reason why some issues prove challenging for us is that we aren’t familiar with them. 3 The internet, books, forums, etc. , offer platforms where we can research and learn about our challenges to find strategies against them. Knowledge is definitely powerful and essential in conquering anything.
Be persistent. This is what is required to accomplish anything, especially when it comes to overcoming challenges. No matter how difficult our challenges might be, we must be willing to push through and try again and again until we achieve victory over them. 4
Ask for help. There are times when we can’t go it alone and need others to help us conquer whatever challenges we face. 5 Networking with like-minded individuals who can offer us support, suggestions, and solutions is useful in helping us overcome challenges.
A.Meet them head-on.
B.Adapt a different strategy.
C.It is said that two heads are better than one.
D.If we give up, we allow the challenges to conquer us instead.
E.Therefore, our knowledge and ability to conquer them is limited.
F.Whatever our positions, we all wish to conquer them and move on.
G.Some challenges can be overwhelming, making us question our ability to overcome them.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍应对挑战的方法。
1.根据上文“We handle challenges differently; some of us choose to face them head-on, while others flee in uncertainty.”(我们应对挑战的方式各有不同;我们中的一些人选择拥抱并正面面对它们,而另一些人则在不确定中逃离。)根据下文“The following are simple methods and strategies we can all employ to overcome challenges more effectively.”(下面是一些简单的方法和策略,我们都可以用来更有效地克服挑战。)可知,该句承上启下,说明无论如何,我们都要克服困难。故F选项“无论我们的立场是什么,我们都希望克服它们并继续前进。”切题。故选F项。
2.根据下文“Nike couldn’t have said it any better with their slogan, “Just do it!” Some challenges require us to do just that. Grab the bull by its horns and have the courage to conquer it, no matter how unsure we might feel. Some challenges are urgent and require immediate attention, leaving us with no option but to go ahead full-steam.”(耐克用他们的口号“Just do it! ”来表达这一点再好不过了。有些挑战要求我们这样做。无论我们感觉多么不确定,请迎难而上,勇敢征服困难。有些挑战是紧迫的,需要立即关注,我们别无选择,只能全力以赴。)由此可知,该段主要讲述A选项“直面挑战”。故选A项。
3.根据上文“The reason why some issues prove challenging for us is that we aren’t familiar with them.”(有些问题对我们来说具有挑战性的原因是我们不熟悉它们。)空处承接上文说明不熟悉导致的结果。故E选项“因此,我们征服它们的知识和能力是有限的”切题。此处them与上一句呼应。故选E项。
4.根据上文“No matter how difficult our challenges might be, we must be willing to push through and try again and again until we achieve victory over them.”(无论挑战有多么困难,我们都必须愿意坚持下去,一次又一次地尝试,直到取得胜利。)可知,空处为前一句内容的补充,故D选项“如果我们放弃,我们反过来就会让挑战征服我们。”为反向叙述后果,切题。故选D项。
5.根据上文“There are times when we can’t go it alone and need others to help us conquer whatever challenges we face.”(有时我们无法独自应对,需要他人来帮助我们克服所面临的任何挑战。)可知,人多力量大,与志同道合的人建立联系,他们可以为我们提供支持、建议或解决方案,而这些建议有助于帮助我们克服挑战。故C选项“俗语说:人多力量大”切题。故选C项。
