                  My faith in humanity(人性) was restored last night while working part-time at a local Bed,Bath & Beyond.

                  I was in the process of ringing out a female customer who had been having a 41 time recently. She had been in the night before and was back again to 42 what she could afford to purchase(购买) .She was trying to buy 43 for herself and her two young sons.

                  Finally,she made her 44: one blanket and something else. She 45 all of the cash,but it was only enough for one blanket. She was unable to make the 46 of the purchases.

                  A gentleman,47 to make his purchase,watched 48 and signaled to me as I was bagging up the blanket for the woman. He told me he wanted to 49 everything else for her. I asked him if he was sure. He 50 .

                  I quickly and quietly rang out the rest of the purchases 51  I asked the female customer to wait a moment. The 52 came to over $200. The man provided me with his credit card 53 blinking. He 54 and off he went.

                  I then told the female customer that all of the things were hers and she was 55 and ready to go. She stared at me with complete 56 on her face. The 57 started. I started crying too.

                  In ten years of working this particular part-time job,I have never experienced such 58 . There are good and 59 people in this world. And they do not receive the credit they should.

            Adventure races are such a huge challenge Aat when you enter a race,you always think,Am Iready? Did Itrain enough?” Iremember one race in particular,my very first Eco-Challenge and only my second race ever. (The Eco-Challenge race is a multi-day event where teams of four men and women compete non-stop over a 300-mile course which includes canoeing,horse riding,scuba diving, mountaineering,mountain biking and so on.) I have never felt that unprepared and frightened in my whole life. My background was cross-country running in high school and college where a two- or three-mile race seemed long. Most of my fear was due to lack of experience and knowledge. I really had no idea what I was getting into. I had done one 24-hour race that happened to be an Eco-Challenge qualifier(资格赛) . I was like a deer cawlit in headlights the whole way. However,we won the race and were invited to compete in Australia.

             In preparation for that Eco-Challenge in Australia,I tried to approach my training in a methodical(系统的) way. But my approach consisted of simply trying to run,bike and canoe as much and as hard as I could. I was also working at the same time. Actually,I was training a couple of hours a day during the week to get fit and at weekends training with the team for perhaps four hours. That was how much I had prepared.

             So,we went to Australia and entered the race. We didn’ t plan a 对ra纪gy (策略) at all,but just ran as fast as possible from the'start. It was a furious (紧张的) 36 hours. We arrived at a few of the check points in first place and were among the top five. But I knew we didn’t  belong there.

             To cut a long story short,two of my teammates decided not to continue the race after just a day and a half. One was just too tired to carry on.Another had severe problems with his feet. The other two of us,feeling fresh still,had to drop out with the rest of our team. Four days later,watching the winners cross the finishing line was bittersweet.

          

24. When the author took part in the 24-hour Eco-Challenge qualifier,he felt very .

   A. sorry   B. proud   C. nervous   D. relaxed

   C. spent most of his time training with his team

   D. threw himself wholeheartedly into his training

26. Why did the author say l knew we didnt belong there”?

   A. Because he wanted his team to give up the race.

   B. Because he knew his team could cross the finishing line.

   C. Because he realized his team wasnt prepared for the race.

   D. Because he wasnt satisfied with what his team had achieved.

27. What can we learn about the Eco-Challenge that the author attended in Australia?

   A. It was a 300-mile race.

   B. It was held at the weekend.

                                      B

          I'm glad I got to attend PRSSA's (Public Relations Student Society of America) National Conference in Philadelphia this year because it gave me the opportunity to get advice and insight (见解) from industry professionals. Newhouse (American publisher) brings in great speakers,but I don't always get the chance to go to the ones I want because of classes and other schedule conflicts. Having five days to focus only on developing my public relations knowledge base was great.

           One of the sessions(会议) I enjoyed the most was about food PR. The speaker was very enthusiastic and gave helpful information on her day-to-day responsibilities and on the importance of choosing the person you want to work for,not just the job position.

           Attending the different sessions also gave me insight on areas that I might not want to work in. The session on entertainment and public relations showed me that I do not have enough interest in the latest television shows and pop culture to work in the entertainment industry. All of the reality stars and movies everyone was talking about were beyond me.

           Attending conferences also allowed our own PRSSA members to get to know each other better and become friends outside of meetings and work. We have a sort of PRSSA family environment where we always try to help each other.

           To sum up,if you ever get the chance to attend a PR conference,whether regional or national,be sure to take the opportunity to do so. Conveniently,Syracuse University will be hosting a regional PRSSA conference on March 1-2 this coming spring. Don’t miss it!

   A. he is not invited

   B. he has to do part-time jobs

   C. he doesnt like the speakers

   D. he has classes or other plans

25. The author's attitude towards PRSSA’s sessions can be described as.

   A. unfavorable   B. enthusiastic

   C. doubtful   D. unconcerned

   A. can benefit a lot from the sessions

   B. have to work out solutions to public issues

   C. compete with each other for good opportuni?ties
