答案：【解析】：
這是一道信息還原題，主要考查學(xué)生對(duì)文章邏輯關(guān)系的理解和句子銜接的掌握。題目給出了一個(gè)關(guān)于“選擇”的議論文，其中缺失了五個(gè)句子，需要從選項(xiàng)中選擇最合適的句子填入空白處。解題的關(guān)鍵在于理解每個(gè)空白處前后文的邏輯關(guān)系，以及每個(gè)選項(xiàng)的含義和用法。
1. 第一個(gè)空白處，后文提到“Choice becomes the tool we use to sculpt our life.”，說(shuō)明選擇是我們塑造生活的工具，因此前文應(yīng)該提出一個(gè)問(wèn)題或者觀點(diǎn)，引出選擇的重要性。選項(xiàng)A“Why is choice so great?”恰好提出了一個(gè)問(wèn)題，引出后文對(duì)選擇重要性的闡述。
2. 第二個(gè)空白處，前文提到“the price of choice is responsibility.”，說(shuō)明選擇需要付出責(zé)任。后文卻轉(zhuǎn)折提到“It is enjoyment.”，說(shuō)明盡管選擇需要付出責(zé)任，但也有回報(bào)。選項(xiàng)D“But when we accept and carry it out, we get a great return.”恰好表達(dá)了這個(gè)意思。
3. 第三個(gè)空白處，前文提到“Life is always changing and we have to make lots of choices.”，說(shuō)明生活中充滿了選擇。后文提到“We often need to check where we are on our journey.”，說(shuō)明我們需要不斷檢查自己的選擇是否讓自己更接近目標(biāo)。因此，空白處應(yīng)該填入一個(gè)與選擇和目標(biāo)相關(guān)的句子。選項(xiàng)F“Every choice we make leads us closer to or farther from our goals.”恰好符合這個(gè)要求。
4. 第四個(gè)空白處，后文提到“And our life becomes more convenient or comfortable because of them. For example, you decide which stores to shop at and which bus station to go to.”，說(shuō)明生活中我們經(jīng)常需要做選擇，這些選擇讓我們的生活更便利或舒適。因此，空白處應(yīng)該填入一個(gè)表達(dá)我們每天都在做選擇的句子。選項(xiàng)C“In fact, we have to make choices every day.”恰好符合這個(gè)要求。
5. 第五個(gè)空白處，前文提到“Life is like a chess game.”，將生活比作一場(chǎng)棋局。后文提到“All chess lovers realize that it isn't necessary to win to enjoy the game. Make the best moves you can under the conditions. Then you can enjoy your life.”，說(shuō)明享受棋局的關(guān)鍵在于享受下棋的過(guò)程，而不是僅僅追求勝利。因此，空白處應(yīng)該填入一個(gè)與享受過(guò)程相關(guān)的句子。選項(xiàng)B“The pleasure is in the playing.”恰好表達(dá)了這個(gè)意思。
