三、阅读短文，从方框中选出能填入文章空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项
Progress means the act of going forward. 1 By setting and actively working towards our goals, we can make progress in our lives.
To make more progress in life, start looking at problems in a different way. Whatever happens, if we think positively, it can be useful and helpful. 2 After we solve problems one after another, we can make more progress and become stronger.
Having confidence is helpful for us to make progress. Confidence comes from different places, such as proper education, training or having good relationships. 3 These people can help push us towards progress.
Slow progress is still progress. Just as the old saying goes, “It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.” Progress usually comes a lot more slowly than we expect. 4
One important thing is that we keep taking steps towards our goals, and another is that we clearly remember what our goals are. The actual speed is not important.
The road to progress is not always smooth. 5 Sometimes, maybe it feels like we are taking one step forward and three steps back, but it will not always be like that. Keep going towards our goals and we can much more easily make the progress we want.
