Our dream seemed to come true with sales starting to accumulate, and our company was also established.【C3】______, another new board game suddenly came into the market and made great progress in sales. Eventually, our company was dissolved.
Perhaps for game developers, the【C4】______emotion " it was never meant to happen" will discourage their future dreams of【C5】______a different life.

Once dreams are【C8】______action, former failure becomes a better action plan in the future. The important point here is that success only comes by realizing that【C9】______are only stepping stones to final success. After many attempts, failures, lessons and false starts, learn【C10】______lessons from failure, turn dreams into reality, and don' t let a dream only be a dream, and then success will arrive at last.
单选题 21.【C1】
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】分析句子结构可知,空处引导的是一个定语从句,修饰先行词dream。再结合句意可知,空处在从句中作地点状语,所以应用where或in which引导,相当于in the dream(在梦里)。what不能引导定语从句;when在定语从句中作时间状语;how在定语从句中作方式状语,均不符合题意。故选B。

【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】destroy:破坏,毁灭;realize:实现,意识到;change:改变;create:创造。根据下文可知,此处指的是”我梦想着发明一款棋盘游戏来改变自己的命运”。故选C。
单选题 23.【C3】
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】unfortunately:(adv.)不幸地;unfortunate:(adj.)不幸的;fortune:(n.)运气;fortunately:(adv.)幸运地。分析句子结构可知,空处应填副词,修饰整个句子,所以排除选项B、C。根据下文“另一款新的棋盘游戏突然进入市场,并在销售上取得了很大的进展”可推知,这对“我们”公司来说很不幸(unfortunately)。故选A。
单选题 24.【C4】
【正确答案】 B

单选题 25.【C5】

单选题 26.【C6】

单选题 29.【C9】
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】effort:努力,尽力;achievement:成就;possibility:可能性;happiness:幸福。根据空后的are可知,空处应填复数名词,所以排除选项A、D。根据句意“(奋斗路上取得的)成就仅仅是获得最终成功的垫脚石”可知,选B。
