Ⅲ.信息还原
What is life's greatest gift? It is a choice. Choice is the ability to choose some actions from a set of things to achieve a goal. (1)A The reason is that it turns us from dumb animals into artists. Choice becomes the tool we use to sculpt(雕刻) our life. The tool doesn't come free, however, for the price of choice is responsibility. (2)D It is enjoyment.
Choice is power. Choice is at the heart of life. It's the creative power of life. Life is always changing and we have to make lots of choices. (3)F We often need to check where we are on our journey. We need to ask questions: Am I moving closer to my goals? If not, what action will I take now to make myself realize my goals?
(4)C 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. But the decisions that we make to sculpt our lives are much more important than deciding where to shop. The more we understand the difference between small and big decisions, the more pleasure we will get. Life is like a chess game. (5)B 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.

答案： 【解析】：
这是一道信息还原题，主要考查学生对文章逻辑关系的理解和句子衔接的掌握。题目给出了一个关于“选择”的议论文，其中缺失了五个句子，需要从选项中选择最合适的句子填入空白处。解题的关键在于理解每个空白处前后文的逻辑关系，以及每个选项的含义和用法。
1. 第一个空白处，后文提到“Choice becomes the tool we use to sculpt our life.”，说明选择是我们塑造生活的工具，因此前文应该提出一个问题或者观点，引出选择的重要性。选项A“Why is choice so great?”恰好提出了一个问题，引出后文对选择重要性的阐述。
2. 第二个空白处，前文提到“the price of choice is responsibility.”，说明选择需要付出责任。后文却转折提到“It is enjoyment.”，说明尽管选择需要付出责任，但也有回报。选项D“But when we accept and carry it out, we get a great return.”恰好表达了这个意思。
3. 第三个空白处，前文提到“Life is always changing and we have to make lots of choices.”，说明生活中充满了选择。后文提到“We often need to check where we are on our journey.”，说明我们需要不断检查自己的选择是否让自己更接近目标。因此，空白处应该填入一个与选择和目标相关的句子。选项F“Every choice we make leads us closer to or farther from our goals.”恰好符合这个要求。
4. 第四个空白处，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.”，说明生活中我们经常需要做选择，这些选择让我们的生活更便利或舒适。因此，空白处应该填入一个表达我们每天都在做选择的句子。选项C“In fact, we have to make choices every day.”恰好符合这个要求。
5. 第五个空白处，前文提到“Life is like a chess game.”，将生活比作一场棋局。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.”，说明享受棋局的关键在于享受下棋的过程，而不是仅仅追求胜利。因此，空白处应该填入一个与享受过程相关的句子。选项B“The pleasure is in the playing.”恰好表达了这个意思。
