B. For example, a student may have to find more time to study.

Reading Strategies
1. Read the 4 sentences and get to know the meaning first.
2. Then read each paragraph and pay more attention to the sentences before and after each blank.
3. Put sentences into the blanks according to the context.
D
D句意：新年伊始常是下新年决心的时候。
第一段中介绍了resolution的意思。第一空格前句意“最普通的一种就是新年决心”，空格后句意为“当我们在新年的开端下新年决心的时候……”可推测出本空应填此句。
A
B
A 句意：这些决心是有关让你自己成为一名更优秀的人的。
由前一句话“很多决心与自我提高有关”，可知空格处是对这句的进一步解释。
B句意：例如，一名学生可能必须利用更多的时间来学习。
本段中介绍了不同类型的决心，并一一举例说明。由空格前所列是第三种 “与更好的计划有关的决心”，本空格处应为举例说明这种类型的决心的情况。
C
C句意： 对此种情况有不错的理由。
本段中心意思是对下新年决心这种想法的怀疑。由空格前句意“人们很难实现它们”，及空格后的两句都是叙述不能实现这些决心的原因，可知空格处应先C句。
