Roberta appeared on the stage. She took a deep breath and began to   36 .  Now she was Portia, a strong–willed   37   in Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice. The theater was filled with people. She was speaking with a power she had never before experienced, the words flowing   38   form her.
  39 , Roberta had never acted in her life before the audition (选拔试演). She   40  being in front of other people. She was very   41   at school. She had never thought she was good enough at anything to   42   much attention. She stayed mostly to herself, making   43  friends. She had excellent grades,   44   she always thought that something was missing.
Two weeks before the audition, Roberta’s mother had heard about it and   45   her to join in.
“I can’t think of anyone else better suited to   46   the part. Remember all the plays you used to act out for us?”
Her mother wouldn’t let the   47   drop. “You’re just a little scared (害怕) .Everyone gets scared. You know you   48   do it. The trick is to look past the   49   to find the love of what you’re doing.’’
So Roberta had made an appointment (预约) with the head of the Drama Club. She had read the play and found herself excited by the   50   of speaking such rich words. In secret she practiced Portia’s part,   51   the lines by repeating them over and over. It wasn’t hard; she   52   every minute of it. Every time she spoke the words, she had a new    53   of the lines, as if Shakespeare had written Portia on many levels.
On the day of the audition, she   54   two of  Portia’s famous speeches for the auditors. When she had finished, the head of the Drama Club announced the   55   was hers.

We've all heard the old saying,“Sticks and stones can break my bones,but words can never hurt me.” Don't you believe it?Words are powerful,and they can hurt—a lot. In fact,if you're not careful,you can even hurt yourself,by using the wrong word in your writing.
Recently a friend sent me a copy of an e-mail she received from the customer service department of her credit card company,after she contacted them with a question about her account. She was happy with their positive response. But as I read the e-mail,one line jumped out at me:“In lieu of good customer service...”
Did they really mean they were offering her a few extra reward points instead of good customer service?I doubt it. More likely,what the customer service department meant to say was,“Because good customer service is important to us...” followed by the details of what they were doing to make sure she remained a happy customer.
So why didn't the writer say that?I can only guess that perhaps the writer liked the phrase “in lieu of”,thought it sounded more interesting than saying “because”,and so used it—without bothering to check the true meaning.
Have you ever done that?Try to impress others with a big word,only to find out you've used the word incorrectly?It's just the opposite effect,isn't it?You may impress people all right,but it's not the impression you were going for.
When you write,remember to choose your words carefully. People may still disagree with what you say,but they won't be able to dismiss you because you made careless mistakes in how you said it.
【小题1】What's the writer's purpose in giving the saying?

A.To amuse the reader.B.To persuade the reader.
C.To support a conclusion.D.To lead to the topic.
【小题2】What does the phrase “in lieu of” most probably mean?
A.Because ofB.In honour ofC.Instead ofD.In favour of
【小题3】According to the writer,the customer service department ______.
A.didn't prefer to use familiar words to attract customers
B.didn't express what they really meant
C.didn't need to offer their customers extra reward points
D.succeeded in impressing their customers

Narayana Hrudayalaya, a complex of health centers based in southern India, offers low-cost, high-quality specialty care in a largely poor country of 1.2 billion people. By thinking differently about everything from the unusually high number of patients it treats to the millions for whom it provides insurance, the hospital group is able to continually reduce costs. Narayana Hrudayalaya’s operations include the world’s largest and most productive cardiac (心脏病的) hospital, where the average open-heart surgery runs less than $2,000, a third or less what it costs elsewhere in India.
Narayana Hrudayalaya’s origins date back to 2001, when it built its massive cardiac center on the outskirts (市郊)of Bangalore. But it has expanded since then into what founder Dr. Devi Shetty calls a "health city," a series of centers specializing in eye, trauma, and cancer care. Narayana Hrudayalaya now manages or owns hospitals in 14 other Indian cities.
Expanding access is paired with a ongoing focus on efficiency. Typically, says Shetty, private hospitals in India focus on patients who can easily afford treatment. "We did it the other way around," he says. "This hospital is for poor people, but we also treat some rich people. We don’t look at people who are sgabbily dressed and have trouble paying as outsiders. "  Narayana Hrudayalaya’s flagship hospital has 3,000 beds and negotiates for better prices and buys directly from manufacturers, cutting out distributors.
In addition to cost-cutting, Narayana Hrudayalaya finds creative ways to make the economics work. The company started a micro-insurance program backed by the government that enables 3 million farmers to have coverage for as little as 22 cents a month in premiums(保险费). Patients who pay discounted rates are in effect compensated by those who pay full price
Doing something--doing more, actually--is the point. By 2017, Shetty, 58, plans to expand from 5,000 beds throughout India to 30,000. Before becoming one of India’s best-known health-care entrepreneurs, Shetty was its best-known heart surgeon. He was interrupted in surgery one day during the 1990s by a request to make a house call. "I said, 'I don’t make home visits,'?" Shetty says, "and the caller said, 'If you see this patient, the experience may transform your life.'?" The request was from Mother Teresa. Inspired by the her work with the poor, he then set out to create a hospital to deliver care based on need, not wealth.  "One lesson she taught me," he says, quoting a saying he keeps framed in his office, "is 'Hands that sew are holier than lips that pray.'?"
【小题1】Narayana Hrudayalayastarted a micro-insurance to _______.

A.cut down on the cost of the treatmentB.get the support of the government
C.make the company run smoothlyD.attract more people to its hospital
【小题2】We can infer from the passage that _______.
A.the cost of medicine care in India is very low
B.Shetty wouldn’t have succeeded without Mother Teresa
C.Shetty and his colleagues are likely to make home visits now
D.Shetty has expanded his hospitals to most of other cities in India
【小题3】Why did Shetty build the massive cardiac center in 2001?
A.He wanted to build a health city.
B.He was motivated and decided to help more people.
C.He intended to develop his career in different areas.
D.He meant to help more poor people get free treatment.
【小题4】How would you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph ?
A.It’s doing something and doing more that really matters.
B.It’s not easy to take positive action to contribute to society.
C.Healthcare workers are the holiest persons in the world.
D.Praying alone is of no significance in face of difficult situation.
