If you're in charge of a project, the key to success is getting everyone to want to help you. As a director, I point, I suggest, I gently push the actors in the direction I want them to go.

In the 1986 movie Nothing in Common, Jackie Gleason's character, Max Basner, gets fired (or unemployed) from his job as a clothing salesman. The scene, shot (拍) on a boat, shows Max's despair(绝望) about being out of work. I was looking for some gesture that would allow Max to show his feelings.

Jackie had far more experience at everything than I did, and at first I was frightened. What could I possibly tell “The Great One” about acting? Out of fear I decided to direct by suggestion, and I sat down with Gleason to talk about the scene. “So Max is sad, right?” I said.

Gleason nodded.

“And he’s probably still carrying his pens with his name on them ---the ones he used to hand out to his customers, right?”

Gleason nodded.

“ So what would you want to do with the pens after you were fired?” He was silent for a moment. “Why don’t I throw them overboard (or all over the boat)?” I stood up and turned toward the crew. “Hey, everybody, Jackie has a wonderful idea. Let’s shoot it.”

After filming the scene, Gleason called me over and said with a smile, “Garry, what kind of wonderful idea am I going to have tomorrow?” You and your team can discover the answers to problems together. When there are no prizes or gold stars for who gets the solution (or the way to work out a problem) first, you'll all benefit (or get something of use or value) when everything turns out right.

The author tells us that to succeed in a project you are in charge of, you should __.

A. make everyone work for you

B. get everyone willing to help you

C. let people know you have the final say

D. keep sending out orders to them

It can be inferred(推断) that ______________.

A. Jackie Gleason is the director of the film Nothing in common

B. Jackie Gleason is very angry when he is fired from his job

C. Max, a character in a film, is in very low spirits(情绪) when he loses his job

D. Jackie Gleason is the writer of the film Nothing in common

The Great One” in paragraph 3 refers to ___________.

A. Gleason B. the director himself

C. Max D. Max's boss

Why did Gleason call the director over and smile at him? That’s because Gleason ___

A. thought his wonderful idea was accepted by the latter(后者)

B. succeeded in hitting upon (or think of) a wonderful idea

C. was certain about his work the next day

D. appreciated the latter's way of directing films

The best title for the passage is ____________.

A. Directing a Film B. The Key to Success

C. A Wonderful Experience D. Working with Film Stars

"John!___46___!" he shouted in a trembling voice, with the tiller still in his hands.
In my memory he could fix any___ 47___. He was the one I always___48___for strength and security. Before I could respond, a___ 49___ of water got into the boat.

Mother used to ask me what the most important part of the body is. Through the years I would guess at the correct answer. When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us, so I said, “My 1___________, mum.” She said, “No, many people are deaf. But think about it and I will ask you again.”
Since making my first attempt, I had often thought over the question. So the next time I told her, “Mum, it must be our eyes.” She said, “You are learning fast, but the answer isn’t correct because there are 2___________ people”
Over the years, Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was, “No, but you are getting smarter, dear.” Last year, my Grandpa 3___________ away. Everybody was heartbroken, crying. When it was our turn to say our final good-bye to Grandpa, Mum asked me, “Do you know the most 4___________ body part yet, my dear?”
I was 5___________ when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game between her and me. She saw the puzzled look on my face and told me, “This question is very important. It shows you have really lived your life.” I saw her eyes full of tears. She said, “My dear, the most important body part is your 6___________.” I asked, “Is it because they hold up your head?” She replied, “7___________, it is because on them a crying friend or a loved one can 8___________ their head. I hope you will have a shoulder to cry 9___________ when you need it.”
Then and there I understood the most important body part is not a selfish one. It is being sympathetic to the pain of 10___________.
