A
A woman was in a hurry to go to the airport. She told the cab driver to drive quickly. She was so absorbed in her own thoughts that she was not aware they were going by a different route.
Suddenly, a man got inside the cab. He took her handbag where she had placed her visa, passport, and all her money for the trip.
The driver, who was in cahoots with the robber, left her in the middle of that dark street. She cursed the world for being so mean to her, and thought how unlucky she was in that situation.
That very same night, she heard some shocking news. Tears flowed down her face. Flight 230, which was the plane that she was supposed to have boarded, had crashed. If she had not lost her precious belongings, she could have lost something far more important------her life.
Sometimes bad things really happen. There are times when nothing seems to go our way. So what should we do about it? We must get rid of all these frustrations and start all over again in the faith that we will get what we deserve. Don’t waste your time and energy on things that can’t be changed. Continuous worrying will only affect your health and you’ll be doing much more damage than what was previously done.
What if it was the other way round? What if we never ran out of good luck?
There was a man who won the lottery. He became greedy and wasted all his money on everything he could get his hands on.
But when he one day made it to the front page of the newspaper again, it was a different story. He had been killed because of his riches. If you attain good luck, you can never be too secure about it. Life is so unpredictable. You never know what will happen next.
Live one day at a time. We sometimes subject ourselves to unnecessary emotional trouble.
Live for the moment. Do what must be done for the present and the future will turn out just fine. Believe me. And believe in yourself. As Captain Planet always says, “The power is yours!”
46. The underlined phrase “in cahoots with” in Paragraph 3 probably means “______.”
A. was forced by B. was fighting bravely with C. had cooperated with D. was trying to beg 47. From the passage, we learn that ________.
A. the woman was lucky to miss her flight B. some people just never run out of good luck C. robbers will get what they deserve D. if you feel yourself lucky, you will continue to be so 48. According to the author, which of the following is the right attitude to adopt towards life? A. Don’t waste your time and energy because time is limited.
B. There’s no need to worry or get frustrated. Just believe in yourself.
C. Even when everything seems to be going well, we should keep fully alert.
D. Worrying about what you don’t have means you miss out on opportunities for other things. 49. The stories are intended to tell us _______.
A. fortune only favors the prepared mind B. gains and losses go hand in hand C. misfortune might be a blessing D. we should save up for a rainy day
