19.I began working in journalism(新闻工作) when I was eight.It was my mother's idea.She wanted me to"make something"of myself,and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.
With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue.The crowds were there.There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union.For several hours I made myself highly visible,making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST.When it was supper time,I walked back home.
"How many did you sell,my boy?"my mother asked.
"None."
"Where did you go?"
"The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues."
"What did you do?"
"Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post."
"You just stood there?"
"Didn't sell a single one."
"My God,Russell!"
Uncle Allen put in,"Well,I've decided to take the Post."I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickel(五分镍币).It was the first nickel I earned.
Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman.I would have to ring doorbells,address adults with self-confidence,and persuade them by saying that no one,no matter how poor,could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.
One day,I told my mother I'd changed my mind.I didn't want to make a success in the magazine business."If you think you can change your mind like this,"she replied,"you'll become a good-for-nothing."She insisted that,as soon as school was over,I should start ringing doorbells,selling magazines.Whenever I said no,she would scold me.
My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember.My mother,dissatisfied with my father's plain workman's life,determined that I would not grow up like him and his people.But never did she expect that,forty years later,such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband's people for true life and love.

56、Why did the boy start his job young?C
A.He wanted to be famous in the future.
B.The job was quite easy for him.
C.His mother had high hopes for him.
D.The competition for the job was fierce
57、From the dialogue between the boy and his mother,we learn that the mother wasD.
A.excited      B.interested    C.ashamed    D.disappointed
58、What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up?A
A.She forced him to continue.    B.She punished him.
C.She gave him some money.       D.She changed her plan.

16.Jerry Morris died on 28 October 2009.He was 99 years old.You have probably never heard of him.He was a professor of public health.More than 50 years ago he produced one of the most famous epidemiological (流行病学) papers of the 20th century.
His study showed that bus conductors were much less likely to die of heart disease than bus drivers.Why?Because the conductors spent their working day walking.It seems obvious now but in the middle of the last century doctors were puzzled by the rising numbers of people who got heart diseases.Jerry Morris found one of the main causes:a sedentary (久坐不动的) lifestyle.He started exercising for a few minutes each day and lived until his 100th year.
If you wish to protect your heart,you have to do more than wander in the garden.The exercise needs to be reasonable.Jogging is not for everyone and a round trip to the gym takes a couple of hours,plus the monthly membership fee is only good value if you visit regularly.The answer is simple:walk.ks5u
A half-hour purposeful walk five times a week will lower your risk of heart disease,diabetes and strokes.Older people sometimes feel they have left it too late.But it is never too late to start and there are no upper age limits.Start gently.Take your time:a 15-minute flat walk in the nearest park,four or five times a week.Within a month or so,you are already beginning to protect your heart.Build the walks up.When you can comfortably walk for half an hour in the park,go further:try following rivers and canals.
Regular walkers have their own natural gymnasium.There is no membership fee,just some of the finest scenery in the world.Great Britain is the walker's gym.When you have followed the rivers and canals,and are enjoying walking for a couple of hours,head for the coast.Once again,build it up slowly.When you are comfortable with long coastal walks,you can think of our national parks.

3.Six years ago,a Miami woman walking through the hall of an office building casually noticed two men standing together.Several minutes after her leaving,the men murdered a person working in the building.Police investigators determined that the woman was the only witness who had seen the two suspects,and could possibly describe them.In an interview with police,her memory of the men proved disappointingly unclear.
Several days later,psychologist Ronald P.Fisher was brought in to get a more complete description from the woman.Fisher's interview produced a breakthrough (突破)-the woman reported a clear picture of one of the suspects.She then recalled several details about his appearances.This information gave police important leads that enabled them to arrest the suspects and close the case.
Police investigators found the help from Fisher because of his rich knowledge in conducting the so-called cognitive (认知的) interview,a kind of memory-rebuilding process.In its original form,the cognitive interview focuses on guiding witnesses through four general recalling techniques:thinking about physical surroundings and personal feelings that existed at the time of past events,reporting everything that comes to mind about those events no matter how broken or unconnected,retelling events in kinds of time orders,beginning to end,end to beginning,forward or backward,and accepting different views while recalling events.
Usually,an interviewer begins the cognitive approach by encouraging the witness to take an active role in recalling information rather than giving answers only to someone else's questions.The witness first describes what happened in his or her own words,with no interviewer interruptions.The interviewer then goes further with specific techniques,such as having the witness tell the details of what happened from different aspects.
Experiments with police detectives trained in this demanding interview method find that they get nearly 50% more information from witnesses than before training,while error rates remain about the same.

A.directing          B.questioning    C.disappointing       D.interrupting
59.What is the key point of the cognitive interview?B
A.The interviewer should interrupt the witness from time to time.
B.The witness is encouraged to take an active role in recalling information.
C.The interview should take place outside the police station.

20.One day I was walking home along the street with my iPod on,when suddenly my headphones(耳机) were knocked off my head and a man threw his arm around my neck,saying"Just be quiet."I was being attacked,and this man's arm was gripping (紧夹) onto me!I started screaming and tried to pull him off me,but failed.He was forcing me to walk towards the back of an auto repair shop and he just kept saying:"Be quiet."
My mind froze with fear.Then I heard my great-grandmother's voice in my head.She was saying:"Come on now,I know you are stronger than that!"She was the rock in our family until she died four years ago.
I have never had any self-defense(自卫) training,but I went for it-I let out a loud scream as I kicked my leg back into his shin(胫骨)!He let go of me and I ran off.When I looked back to see if he was running after me,I saw he was running in the opposite direction.Then I ran like crazy to a nearby drugstore.
I asked the girl at the counter for O1 phone and called my mom.She picked me up five minutes later and I explained what happened through sobs."I am calling the police!"She exclaimed.When we got home,two officers were waiting for us and I told them what had happened.
After my experience,I was afraid to do anything.Things slowly got better,but I still don't like anyone going near my neck.
The fear isn't totally gone-after all,the guy is still out there somewhere.But I had a new understanding of my own strength.I never expected to be able to fight off an attacker.I am stronger than I realized.

18.Many years ago,when I was a young man in my twenties,I worked as a salesman for a St.Louis piano company.We sold our pianos all over the state by advertising in small town newspapers and then,when we had received sufficient replies,we would load our little trucks,and drive into the area and sell the pianos to those who had replied.
   Every time we would advertise in the cotton country of Southeast Missouri,we would receive a reply on a postcard which said,"Please bring me a new piano for my little granddaughter.It must be red mahogany(红木).I can pay $10 a month with my egg money."The old lady had scrawled on and on until she filled up the postcard,then turned it over and even wrote on the front-around and around the edges until she filled up there was barely room for the address.
   No finance company would carry a contract with payments that small,so we ignored her postcards.One day,however,I happened to be in that area calling on other replies,and out of curiosity I decided to look the old lady up.I found pretty much what I expected:The old lady lived in a one-room sharecroppers cabin in the middle of a cotton field.
The cabin had a dirt floor and there were chickens in the house.Obviously,the old lady could not have qualified to purchase anything on credit--no car,no phone,no real job,nothing but a roof over her head and not a very good one.I could see daylight through it in several places.Her little granddaughter was about 10,barefoot and wearing a feedsack dress.
