And I have a brother called Mike.One day, my brother called me and asked me for some advice. He was trying to decide between two job offers:Job 1 The first job was your typical 40 hour a week “office” job.Job 2 The second job was more of a career in the insurance industry(保险业), where he would start at the bottom, and after many years and many long hours eventually rise to the top (if he was good).The second job did not pay as well as the first job (at the beginning), but the pay-off of the second job (in the future) was much greater than the first job. So which job should my brother take? Well the answer isit depends.Just like the Cat was trying to tell Alice, which road you take depends a great deal on where you want to end up.Begin with the End in MindI asked my brother what was his lifes purpose. He said his purpose was to “teach,” but he wanted to make a lot of money first. I told my brother to forget about the money, and I advised him to focus on his purpose. I then asked him which job best supported his end result of “teaching.” He said the first job best supported his goal because he would only have to work 40 hours a week, which would give him spare time to teach. He continued on to say, “but if I take job number two, I can work hard and make more money, then I can retire early and “teach” later in life.” I again advised him to “focus” on his purpose, not money. Things dont end wrong, they begin wrong!You Cant Ride Two Horses WellIt would be very difficult to have a successful teaching career while youre working 70-80 hours a week in the insurance business; no one can ride two horses well. As they say, you can do anything, but not everything. I advised him to get started today by choosing the job that best supported that decision.Tomorrow Never ComesMy brother was thinking that he could always start teaching later in life, but the reality is, tomorrow never comes. Unless you decide right now to follow your feelings, they will probably never be completed. You only live once, dont go to the end of your life with one regret.The Money Will ComeMy brother seemed to be overly concerned with making money. I told him not to be anxious about making money. You will always have greater money when youre doing what you love.In a word, whenever youre at a cross-road, be sure to make the decision that best supports the goal of your life. If you do, then you will be well on your way.（1）Mike _ David one day.A . visitedB . metC . made a telephone call toD . found（2）Mike was trying to _.A . look for a jobB . start a careerC . wok in an officeD . decide between two job offers（3）As for the lifes purpose, Mike _.A . wanted to teach firstB . wanted to make a lot of money firstC . wanted to work in the insurance industryD . wanted to work 40 hours a day（4）You Cant Ride Two Horses Well means _.A . youd better have two horsesB . you can only ride one horse wellC . you can do everything well.D . you cant do two things well at the same time（5）The best title of the passage is _.A .
