20.Reached My Destination"Ego (自尊) has an enormous appetite,the more you feed it,the hungrier it gets."
-Nathaniel Bronner Jr.
It has been two years,we have not met.Last time was when we were departing at Rome Airport as a procedure of joining different competitive firms.We exchanged our personal email IDs and I never realized my email ID was one with an error.
We had been in six years of professional relationship that ended with a small misunderstanding.We never realized that we might not get a chance to clear it.We both had tough ego levels to shed off.
In these two years work has always kept me busy.There have been instances where I wanted to write to him for his expertise advice but my ego always stopped me.And then one day flying to London for a conference was taking away my peace of mind.I knew he would be there as a part of the event from his firm.
I thought to ignore him and behave professionally as an employee.Finally,I entered the conference hall.I was quick enough to realize that he would take over participants'attention with his confidence,and all I would do sitting there would be appreciating him,nodding my head as"Yes to Yes"and"No to No".
Finally,he approached the stage.
The very first line that fell into my ears was my name as he continued,"I am proud to be here with 8years of experience and I would like to share my best practices with all of you.This is a journey I completed with one of my best colleagues and my best friend‘my name'who supported me through day and night with the toughest projects and killing deadlines".
For a moment I fell numbed (目瞪口呆) and completely lost.All I could remember were my thoughts for him before entering the room and his greatness to acknowledge my presence.Finally,the conference ended and we all left for refreshment.I was struggling hard to face him.
I saw him coming towards me with a gift.
I asked him,"Why this gift?"
He was very humble to answer,‘This is a small symbol of friendship to tell how much I missed my friend when I wanted her the most.A small token to represent that even when you were not with me,your teachings helped me to work on difficult projects."
I asked curiously,"But you never wrote to me,if I was so important and helpful."
He replied,"You left me with an email ID that is not reachable,maybe you missed a letter.I had no number to call you either but when I read your name in the list,I did all these arrangements.We never know when we meet again in life,so this gift is for you my friend."
Finally,we again departed to our respective destinations but this time with a smile.

分析 本文属于记叙文阅读,作者通过这篇文章向我们叙述了她和她的好朋友之间因信息错误,她的朋友无法联系她,而她却因自尊不肯主动联系对方,两年后才见面澄清了误会.通过这篇文章告诉我们不能够被自尊掌控.
解答 67.C.推理判断题.根据文章第三段"There have been instances where I wanted to write to him for his expertise advice but my ego always stopped me",我想写信给他寻求他的专业知识的意见,但我总是阻止自己,可推测我其实是想见他的,但是因为自尊令我想让他先联系我,故选C.
68.B.细节理解题.根据文章第四段"I thought to ignore him and behave professionally as an employee"可知我想不理他,表现的像个专业员工,故选B.
68.A.推理判断题.根据文章第三段、倒数第二段"There have been instances where I wanted to write to him""when I read your name in the list,I did all these arrangements"可知作者是想给她朋友写信的,而朋友在得知作者会来时特意做了 很多安排,可推测他们都很珍视他们的友谊,故选A.
70.D.主旨大意题.通读全文,在文章一开始就表明了"Ego (自尊) has an enormous appetite,the more you feed it,the hungrier it gets"自尊有巨大的胃口,你越喂它,它越饿,后面作者的故事中因自尊两人两年没有联系,因此作者想告诉我们不能被自尊掌控.故选D.
