What does the underlined part “reimburse you” probably mean?
Recently, in the hope of earning both money and social experience, I became a door-to-door salesman．I once read a saying：“If somebody wants something of you, you will be treated as warmly as spring, but if they don’t, you may be treated as coldly as winter.”You may consider it an exaggeration(夸张)，but if you are a salesman, it is clearly correct．
You would never have found it to be so true if you hadn’t been a salesman．You needn’t stand doubtful looks and unfriendly views; you needn’t listen to something completely wrong and nod to say that it was quite right; you needn’t always keep patience and smile; you needn’t repeat the same sentences over again; you needn’t talk to somebody you dislike．
I did this work for a month; then I decided to give it up．In spite of the above reasons, I found I was paying too much attention to the job and thus sacrificing my study time．The latest test result proved that my grades were getting lower．Even worse, I hadn’t enough time to join my classmates in college activities．Sometimes I felt lonely and unhappy because of both my study and my part-time job．Now I don’t think it is worth doing such a thing even though I was earning money at great cost．
Newspapers and magazines often publish stories about good students who do part-time work and keep high scores in class．But according to my experience, part-time work can have some strong bad effects on study．
Most students don’t see the relationship between studies and work in a correct way．In my opinion, if it isn’t must for money reasons, students should be cautious about taking up a part-time job．In western countries even the children of very rich families take part in hard jobs during the summer vacation．

Thousands of people began pouring into Pennsylvania from other states．They wanted to buy lottery tickets．The tickets cost only $0.9 each．But that small spending could bring them a reward of $90 million．That was the second largest lottery jackpot(积累奖金)in history．
More than 87 million tickets were bought for the Pennsylvania lottery drawing．Those who bought tickets had to choose seven numbers from 1 to 80．The chance of winning was one in 9.6 million．But that little chance certainly didn’t affect ticket sales．In the last few days before the drawing, tickets were selling at the unbelievable rate of 500 per second．
Experts say many people buy lottery tickets because they just want to have a piece of the action．Others say the lottery is a stock market for poor people．It allows them to dream about wealth they’ll probably never have．
But many people believe lotteries are no better than legalized(合法化的)gambling．Some critics note that most people who play are poor and may not be able to afford the tickets．There are also many addicts who take the game seriously．They may pour their life savings into lottery tickets．Some clubs have been formed to help them kick the habit．
Politicians like lotteries because they provide money that would otherwise have to come from new taxes．The profits from lotteries are usually used to pay for education or programs for senior citizens．But critics say this arrangement just allows states to legalize vice(恶习), under the name of social progress．No matter whether you regard state lotteries right or not, you cannot refuse to accept their extreme popularity with many Americans．
(1)

[ ]
A．

lotteries are just legalized vice

BEIJING——The handsome face and muscular figure of Lin Dan make him an ideal candidate for the big screen．
However, the Chinese badminton superstar says any speculation about a career in the entertainment industry will have to wait until his on-court career ends．
“Right now, I'm just focused on the 2012 Olympic Games．I will not think about the possibility of acting as long as I'm still able to play the sport,” said 27-year-old Lin during a press conference on Sunday organized by razor(剃刀)brand Gillette．
The reigning(占优势)Olympic and world champion is determined to hold on until the 2012 London Olympics, even though he achieved a grand slam(大满贯)by winning the Asian Games in Guangzhou．
“I will try my best and hold on to play the 2012 Olympic Games,” said Lin, who won the MVP Award at the Asian Games thanks to his men's single title and his overwhelming popularity with fans and the media．
“I know it will be a tough two years．I know rising stars and old foes will come up and pose bigger threats during my preparation．But I'm ready to accept the challenge,” ‘Super Dan' said．
The Asiad title was the only major crown missing from Lin's glittering resume, which includes one Olympic title and three consecutive world crowns．
He said the pressure going into the Asiad was even greater than that at the 2008 Beijing Games．
“I know lots of people expected me to pick up the title．There was big pressure on me,” said Lin, who was upset by Indonesia's Hidayat Taufik in the Doha final four years ago．“So when I did it, I felt more excited than when I won the Olympic title．”
