What is the answer to a long and happy existence in this world of ours? I think I found it long ago in a passage from the book of Genesis which caught my eye while I was looking through my Bible. The words were few, but they became memorably impressed on my mind. “ In_the_sweat_of_the_face_shall_you_eat_the_bread._”

　　To me, that has been a challenge from my earliest recollections memories. In fact, the battle of life, of existence, is a challenge to everyone. The immortal words of St. Paul, too, have been and always will be a great inspiration to me. At the end of the road I want to be able to feel that I have fought a good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith.

　　语篇解读：本文提到世上最难完成的两件事是用诚实努力获得财富，以及如何正确运用，才能不枉此生。

　　5．Which of the following is indicated in the first paragraph?

　　A．Wealth results from honest effort.

　　B．The men seated at tables in the locker room are lost in the significance of life.

　　C．For some people, no way can be found to escape the realities of life other than scotch and soda.

　　D．The men acquire wealth by planting fruit trees.

　　答案：C　判断推理题。根据第一段提到“Yet, it seemed to me, something very important was missing, else there would not have been the constant effort to escape the realities of life through scotch and soda. They knew, each one of them, that their productivity had ceased(停止)．”但是，我想，对他们来说，某种非常重要的东西已经失去了，不然他们又怎会逃避现实，每天用苏打水和苏格兰威士忌将自己灌得烂醉如泥？他们明白，自己已经无法突破现有的成就。故选C项。
