根据以下资料，回答题： As a child-考呗网题库移动版

单选题根据以下资料，回答题：
        As a child I was slave to my impulses; now I am slave to my habits, as are all grown men．I have surrendered my free will to the years of accumulated habits and the past deeds of my life have already marked out a path which threatens to imprison my future．My actions are ruled by appetite, passion, prejudice, greed, love, fear, environment, habit, and the worst of these tyrants is habit．Therefore, if I must be a slave to habit let me be a slave to good habits．My bad habits must be destroyed and new furrows prepared for good seed．I will form good habits and become their slave．
        And how will I accomplish this difficult feat? Through these scrolls, it will be done, for each scroll contains a principle which will drive a bad habit from my life and replace it with one which will bring me closer to success．For it is another of nature's laws that only a habit can subdue another habit．So, in order for these written words to perform their chosen task, I must discipline myself with the first of my new habits which is as follows: I will read each scroll for thirty days in this prescribed manner, before I proceed to the next scroll．
First, I will read the words in silence when I arise．Then, I will read the words in silence after I have partaken of my midday meal．Last, I will read the words again just before I retire at day's end, and most important, on this occasion I will read the words aloud．
        On the next day I will repeat this procedure~ and I will continue in like manner for thirty days．Then, I will turn to the next scroll and repeat this procedure for another thirty days．I will continue in this manner until I have lived with each scroll for thirty days and my reading has become habit．
        And what will be accomplished with this habit? Herein lies the hidden secret of all man's accomplishments．As 1 repeat the words daily they will soon become a part of my active mind, but more important, they will also seep into nay other mind, that mysterious source which never sleeps, which creates my dreams, and often makes me act in ways I do not comprehend．
        As the words of these scrolls are consumed by my mysterious mind I will begin to awake, each morning, with a vitality I have never known before． My vigor will increase, my enthusiasm will rise, my desire to meet the world will overcome every fear I once knew at sunrise, and I will be happier than I ever believed it possible to be in this world of strife and sorrow．Eventually I will fmd myself reacting to all situations which confront me as I was commanded in the scrolls to react, and soon these actions and reactions will become easy to perform, for any act with practice becomes easy．Thus a new and good habit is born, for when an act becomes easy through constant repetition it becomes a pleasure to perform and if it is a pleasure to perform it is man's nature to perform it often．When I perform it often it becomes a habit and I become its'slave and since it is a good habit this is my will．Today I begin a new life．

In this passage, the author mainly wanted to illustrate how ________．

A．he was enslaved by the impulsive action
B．the good habits had been accumulated in the past years
C．to formulate good habits in the future
D．to distinguish good habits from bad habits

参考答案C

解析:本文节选自被称为世界上最伟大的励志丛书《羊皮卷》的第一部分。
作者首先下定决心改掉自己的坏习惯。接着作者为自己制定了计划，决定从阅读羊皮卷开始培养自己好的习惯。文章阐述了养成良好习惯的重要性，认为好的习惯隐含着人类成功的秘诀。文章指出习惯的养成有赖于多次的重复，因为重复会让事情变得简单，从而产生乐趣。
C。本题考查主旨，需着眼于全文。作者从一开始就提到，人的行为受各方面因素的影响，其中影响力最大的就是习惯(the worst ofthese tyrants is habit)，因此他说“ifI must be a slave to habit let me be a slave to good habits．My bad habits must be destroyed and new furrows prepared for good seed”，即“如果我必须受习惯支配的话，那就让我受好习惯的支配。那些坏习惯必须戒除，我要在新的田地里播种好的种子”。这反映了作者想要养成良好的习惯并全心全意去实行的愿望。在下文中作者就如何培养好的习惯展开了论述。因此正确答案为c。
