　　There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external result or product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a promotion, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language -- all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.

　　55. A person is generally believed to achieve personal growth when ________.

　　通常情况下，人们在什么时候被认为获得了成长?

　　根据题干可以定位到原文中的这样一句：People have generally viewed personal growth as an external result or product that can easily be identified and measured.

　　其中generally believed 替换了原文中的generally viewed;

　　an external result or product that can easily be identified and measured.

　　下面选项中符合这一标准的为正确答案。这是考研中不多的演绎类的题目：

　　文中给出标准，答案给出例子，符合标准的例证为正确答案。

　　这里应该选择第一个答案，只有第一个答案符合“外在的”，“可被测量的”，并且是一个“结果”。

　　[A] he has given up his smoking habit

　　当他放弃了吸烟的习惯的时候

　　解析：是结果，且可测量

　　[B] he has made great efforts in his work

　　他为了工作付出了巨大努力的时候

　　解析：还不是结果

　　[C] he is keen on leaning anything new

　　他热衷于学习任何新的事物的时候

　　解析：也不是结果

　　[D] he has tried to determine where he is on his journey

　　他尝试着确定他处于他旅程中的那个位置的时候

　　解析：不是结果，且不可测量
