    To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community：

    I hereby resign as CEO of Apple．I would like to serve，if the Board sees fit，as Chairman of the Board，director and Apple employee．

    I love Apple and I am looking forward to diving into my new role．All of the incredible support from the Board，the executive team and many of you has been inspiring．I am confident our best years lie ahead of us and that together we will continue to make Apple the magical place that it is．

5．Outside our hotel in Ho Chi Ming City，Vietnam，a seemingly ancient woman waited beside the door with her hand outstretched （张开的）．Every day I put my hand in hers as our eyes met．She never failed to return my smile，my grasp，and my greeting．
    On the last day of our visit，I found myself alone on a busy corner across the street from our hotel．Bicycles and motorbikes rushed in front of me．As I hesitated on the sidewalk，I felt a hand on my elbow and looked down to see the smile of my small beggar friend looking up at me．She nodded her head toward the street，indicating that she would take me across．Together，we moved slowly into the chaos．
    Then we moved on toward the sidewalk，where she pulled my face down to hers，kissed me on both cheeks，and then left，still smiling and waving back to me．
Traveling in poorer nations，I have witnessed a variety of ways to deal with beggars．The most common response of tourists faced with the poverty-stricken is to ignore them and focus their eyes elsewhere．I have seen people push away an outstretched hand in angry annoyance．A few may drop a few coins into the hand in a hurry，hoping that other ragged pursuers won't immediately appear on the scene．
For many reasons，giving money is not the best response to an outstretched hand．Many world travelers have discovered that the greatest gift they can give is their time and respect．Everyone needs recognition，to be seen as worthy of being known，to feel appreciated and loved．And I believe that everyone is worthy and worth knowing．

Q：Does your childhood mean a lot to you？

2．While I was in my 4th month of pregnancy （妊娠期） with my second child，we were preparing for a trip to Louisiana，where Marshall's family live，to celebrate Jane's 2nd birthday．Two days before we were to leave，we got the shocking news that I was going to lose the baby．Not knowing when this would happen，we decided to continue with our trip．
Since Marshall's family lives on a 600-acre cattle farm，you often find that you have a lot of time to yourself to think when you are there．That is precisely what I did not want to do at this time．I told Marshall that I needed to get a good book to get lost in while I was there．I told him I heard the Harry Potter books were good，so he went out and got the first one for me．
During that trip，I totally got lost in the book，which was of great help during a time when I needed a distraction to forget about the sadness．In the book，I noticed the name"Seamus"．I vaguely remembered it was pronounced"Shamus"and I liked the sound of that．I mentioned it to Marshall and he liked it too．Toward the end of the trip，I had just 5chapters left and I knew I was about to finish the first book，which I was pretty excited about．
Soon after we put Jane down to bed，I had started labor （分娩），so I was unable to read．The labor lasted 5and 1/2hours，but Marshall stayed there with me，sitting beside me and reading aloud the last 5chapters of Harry Potter．I can never fully explain how much that helped me through the experience．And ever since then，Marshall and I both have been fans of the Harry Potter books．We remember how they helped us get through that time of our lives．
We were sad to have lost the baby，but the name Seamus started our journey toward adoption．And we gave this name to our adopted son．Though our Seamus doesn't have a drop of Irish blood in him，the name fits him perfectly．

26．Why did the writer want a good book during the trip？B
A．Because the trip to Louisiana would take a long time．
B．Because she didn't want to think of losing her baby．
C．Because she had nothing else to do except reading．
D．Because a good book could help her enjoy her trip．
27．According to the story，we can know that the Harry Potter booksC．
A．made the family's trip more exciting      B．include five books all together
C．have someone called Seamus in them         D．can help people deal with their problems

A．Funny Stories Of My Family            B．Seamus And Harry Potter
C．How We Got To Louisiana               D．How My Son Got His Name．
9．Sport is not only physically challenging，but it can also be mentally challenging．Criticism from coaches，parents，and other teammates，as well as pressure to win can create an excessive amount of anxiety or stress for young athletes．Stress can be physical，emotional，or psychological，and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout．Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable．
The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself．The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place．Young athletes can，for example，learn how to cooperate with others，make friends，and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives．Coaches and parents should be aware，at all times，that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children．Youngsters may take their parents'and coaches'criticisms to heart and find flaws（缺陷）in themselves．
Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children．The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons．In today's youth sport setting，young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport．Following a game，many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find fault with youngsters'performances．Positive reinforcement（正面强化）should be provided regardless of the outcome．Research indicates that positive reinforcement motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism．Again，criticism can create high levels of stress，which can lead to burnout．

72．An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athletes isC．
A．to make sports less competitive
B．to make sports more challenging
C．to reduce their mental stress
D．to increase their sense of success
73．According to the passage sport is positive for young people in thatD．
A．it can help them learn more about society
B．it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves
C．it enables them to find flaws in themselves
D．it can provide them with valuable experience
74．Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletesA．
A．without realizing criticism may destroy their self-confidence
B．in order to make them remember life lessons
C．believing that criticism is beneficial for their early development
D．so as to put more pressure on them
75．The author's purpose in writing the passage isB．
A．to persuade athletes not to worry about criticism
B．to emphasize the importance of positive reinforcement to young athletes
C．to discuss the skill of combining criticism with encouragement
D．to teach young athletes how to avoid burnout．
6．In no country _______ France，as is often said，________ taste so many kinds of delicious cheese．（　　）
A．rather than； can oneB．other than； can one
C．rather than； one canD．other than； one can
11．Teenage years can be confusing for both teenagers and parents．At about 15，many teens start thinking about how they feel about themselves and（1）B  out how this matches or mismatches what others think of them．Most teens work through this（2）Aby the age of 16or 17．
Often teenagers are treated like（3）D bigger children，but they will never become（4）D and responsible if they are not allowed to make some decisions for themselves．If parents forbid their children from doing something，chances are that they will do it（5）Cwithout permission anyway．The role of a parent must，therefore，change from that of protector and keeper to that of friend and（6）A．
Yet even the most caring parents misunderstand their children sometimes，and some think of teenagers as insecure，stubborn and（7）C．As a result，teenagers always keep their（8）Bfrom their parents．Teens often（9）Bthat their parents repeat the same things over and over again and never listen to them．Parents must understand that teens need to be allowed to（10）Dtheir side of any problem and express their point of view．
Thus，more private and level-headed communication is needed for the parents．Every parent should try to schedule time to be（11）C  with their child，like taking a short trip together．This time allows parents to talk and listen without（12）C from work or other family members．It might also be good to encourage teens to（13）Aimportant issues at dinner．Discussion time shows teens that parents are interested in them and their lives．
A person's teenage years are a key time for them to identify their own（14）D，like distinguishing good from evil．Handling and improving communication with teenagers is not easy，but success will be （15）A for parents and teens alike．
