解析
文章大意：每个人每天都要面临各种各样的选择。正确的选择究竟会给我们的人生带来些什么呢？
小题1:本空前有问句，空后出现choice这一关键词，A选项既回答上文问题又引出了下文choice的概念，随后下文承接该话题继续展开。故选A。
小题2:其一，该项中carry out it中it指代的是上句中的responsibility；其二，虽然选择意味着责任，但是同时又会给我们带来巨大的回报，故选D。
小题3:E选项是对上文的not still 和 a flow的进一步解释。另外，其中leads us与下文monitor 相呼应，且E选项中的closer to or farther from our goals与下文的Am I moving closer to my goal? to readjust myself with my goals吻合。故选E。
小题4:其一，“因为每天都在选择，而使生活变得更加舒适和方便”。其二， 该空的后文举例说明前文的观点，故该空具有概括意义。故选B。
小题5:上文叙述“生活就像下棋”，下文“要走出特定环境下最好的一步棋”，前后为顺接关系，故选C。考点：
考点
据考高分专家说，试题“What is life's great.....”主要考查你对 [序数词 ]考点的理解。序数词
序数词的概念：
表示顺序的数称为序数词。如：first, second, third, fourth。
序数词的构成与用法：
1、序数词的构成：
①一般来说，是由相应的基数词加词尾th构成。
例：four＋th→fourth
six＋th→sixth
seven＋th→seventh
ten＋th→tenth
②下面这些基数词在变为序数词时，有特殊的变化。
例：one→first
two→second
three→third
five→fifth
eight→eighth
nine→ninth
twelve→twelfth
③十位整数序数词的构成方法是将基数词的词y变成i，然后再加eth。
例：twenty→twentieth
thirty→thirtieth
forty→fortieth
ninety→ninetieth
④两位或两位以上的基数词变成序数词时，仅将个位数变成序数词。
例：twenty－one→twenty－first
thirty－five→thirty－fifth
a hundred and fifty－three→a hundred and fifty－third
2、序数词的用法：
①序数词在使用时，一般加上定冠词。
例：the first book
the second floor
the third day
the fourth week．
②序数词在多数情况下都用作定语，有的也可以作表语、主语和宾语。
例：The may1st is Labour Day. 五月一日是劳动节。

如：five dozen (of) eggs 五打鸡蛋
hree hundred people 三百个人
分数词的构成和用法：
1）分数词构成法：
分数词（FractionalNumerals）由基数词和序数词构成，基数词代表分子，序数词代表分母。除了分子为1的情况下，序数词都要用复数形式：
如：1/4：one-fourth
5/9：five-ninths
2/3：two-thirds
17/5：three and two-fifths
7/12：seven-twelfths
379/8：forty-seven and three-eighths
