Ⅱ.阅读理解
阅读下列短文，选出最佳选项。
A
(2018·山东滨州阳信模拟)It is very important to have a law to base your life on. As for me, the law of life is that success is a journey, not a destination(目的地). It means that the most important is not where you are in the end, but what you have accomplished(完成) while you are trying along the way.
One person who shares my law of life is Mark McGwire, a US baseball player. He once played for St.Louis Cardinals. He wasn't caught up in the homerun competition in the 1998 season, but he tried his best to play every game. And, most of the time, he helped his teammates instead of promoting(提升) personal performance, because he wanted to make it a good season for the whole team.
I also think the Cardinals as a whole is following my law of life. They play every game with their full potential(潜力) instead of letting a few winning games go to their heads. They stay focused on the games in the World Series. Even if they lose some games, they never give up.
It doesn't matter whether you have the ability to be on the top in the end or win the championship. All that matters is that you work hard the whole time. There are a few people in the world who have already understood that success is a journey, not a destination. But wouldn't it be a much better world if everyone did? After all, it's not about who wins or loses, but about how well you play the game. I hope I can apply this to my own life.
1．According to the passage, the writer thinks that .
A．it's important to win in the end
B．it's important to try your best on the journey to success
C．you will succeed if you put your heart into it

D．He wanted his team to get a better result in the 1998 season.
3．The writer mentioned the Cardinals to show that .
A．everyone believes in his law of life
B．sports players know how to win
C．they have the same opinion as his
D．teamwork is very important
4．The underlined phrase “go to their heads” means “ ” in Chinese.
A．冲昏头脑 B．志在必得 C．半途而废 D．勇往直前

B．Win Every Game
C．Success Is a Destination
D．The Law of Life
