Two years ago my wife   38  me to return to school and work toward a career where I would find satisfaction. So I entered Long Beach City College to pursue a   39  in history. Last term I took a political science class. The   40  Dr. Rock had such a great effect on me. He   41  in the Air Force, worked in the U.S. nuclear program and served in the White House. When I asked another instructor   42  someone who was so overqualified(资历过高的)worked at a small community college, she   43  told me because he wanted to.
This   44  me, so I asked Dr. Rock himself why he did not pursue a better role in his career. What he told me has changed my   45  forever. He told me that by working at the college he  would be able to   46  the kinds of students he believed would make a   47  in the world. He said that   48  the right motivation and support, the students he taught could become the future leaders of our country. He said that he preferred the inner city   49  because the students there showed the   50  promise and cared deeply for their education.
Dr. Rock paid attention to the needs of the community. He taught me how to care and   51  us to take part in our community in any way we   52  .
I thought that I was the   53  one that was affected by his lessons, but at the end of the term I found that the entire class had felt the same   54  that came over me. Dr. Rock taught us how to   55    our country, our community and ourselves.

One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts,it came without wrap(包装).
On September 11 th , 1 958,Mum gave birth to Richard.After she brought him home from hospital,she put him in my lap,saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it is.” What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own.I played with it day and night. I sang to it, I told it stories.I told it over and over how much I loved it!  
One morning, however,I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it.Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital.It had a fever. For several days,I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as “hopeless”,“pitiful",and “dying”, which sounded Ominous
Christmas was coming, “Don’t expect any presents this year,” Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. “If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke,his eyes filled with tears. I’d never seen him cry before.
The phone rang early on Christmas morning.Dad jumped out of bed to answer it.From my bedroom I heard him say, “What? He’s all right?” He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home!” “Thank God!” I heard Mum cry.
From the window upstairs,I watched my parents rush out to the car.I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat.But I knew they were not empty: they were filled with love !

Curious, he shouts: : “Who are you?” He receives the answer:” “Who are you?” And then he screams to the mountain: “I admire you!” The voice answers: “I admire you!”
Angered at the response, he screams: “Coward (one without courage)!” He receives the answer: “Coward!”
He looks to his father and asks: “What's going on?” The father smiles and says: “My son, pay attention.”
Again the man screams at the top of his voice: “You are a champion!” The voice answers: “You are a champion!”
The boy is surprised, but does not understand. Then the father explains: “People call this ECHO (回音) , but really this is LIFE. It gives you back everything you say or do. Our life is simply a reflection of our actions. If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart. If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.”

The "Occupy Wall Street" movement gained more support on Wednesday as unions and students joined in. With the protests developing from a group of young people's camping out near the New York Stock Exchange on September 17 to large-scale (大规模的) movements across the country and around the world, people can't help asking: What has led to "Occupy Wall Street?"
Three years after the severe economic crisis, the U.S. economy now is stuck again. Protesters are not satisfied with the present economic situation since unemployment rate is above 9 percent and economic growth has slowed. The housing market is still struggling for a recovery three years after the bubble (泡沫) burst. People are losing their houses even after they have paid a large amount of mortgage(抵押). It is getting difficult for young people to find jobs. People feared that a similar crisis like the one in 2008 may be already on its way.
It is Wall Street that possessed the most riches. It is Wall Street greed that, at least partly, led to the financial crisis in 2008. It was Wall Street's "fat cats" who take taxpayers' aid money as their own big bonus (奖金). With the growing economic crisis around the world, people realize that Wall Street is responsible for it. So they try to target people who created the crisis.
The majority of the protesters are young people under 30. Many of them are unemployed. Some are students with mountains of loans (贷款). Some are hard-working people about to lose their houses even if they have paid a large amount of mortgage. They are complaining that the hard-working middle class is getting poor, yet Wall Street stays wealthy.
William Cohan, author of Money and Power: How Goldman Sachs Came to Rule the world, wrote recently that Wall Street not only learned nothing from the 2008 crisis, they are also trying to kill all reforms that might "break this dangerous cycle in which bankers get very rich while the rest of working people suffer from their mistakes."
小题1:. What is the main idea of the passage?
A.The cause of the “Occupy Wall Street” movement.
B.The demand of the protesters of the “Occupy Wall Street” movement.
C.The popularity of the “Occupy Wall Street” movement.
D.The development of the “Occupy Wall Street” movement.
小题2:. According to the second paragraph, what set off the “Occupy Wall Street” movement?
A.The housing market.B.The bad economic situation.
C.The mortgageD.The high unemployment rate.
小题3:. We can learn from the passage that Wall Street is the symbol of          in the USA.
A. civilization        B. power                        C. wealth            D. fashion
小题4:We can infer that William Cohan         .
A.is the organizer of the “Occupy Wall Street” movement
B.lives on Wall Street
C.is against the “Occupy Wall Street” movement
D.approves of the “Occupy Wall Street” movement
“Image is everything.” An entire industry has been built upon the assumption that image is everything, but when it comes down to it, an appealing image is not enough.If there is no substance(事实) behind the image, the product, service or person will fail eventually.
First of all, one should consider how important image is in the selling of products and services.Advertising agencies have raised the art of creating an image to a state of near perfection.Public concept of that product or service is certainly managed by the images created by the advertising agencies.But if the product or service does not live up to the image that was created, the customer will be very dissatisfied and possibly ask for their money back.For example, the Arthur Andersen accounting firm had spent decades building up an image of trustworthiness.But the recent scandal (丑闻) showed that behind that image, it cheated in business practices.Despite the previous positive image, the firm is being accused of criminal actions and it will probably not survive as a business unit.Although the image had been nearly perfect, the reality behind the image has led to the downfall of the world famous accounting firm.
Similarly, personal advisers can build up a public image for politicians and movie stars.Putting out positive news releases, making sure that only the best photographs are published, and ensuring that the person is seen in all the right places can build up a very positive image in the view of the general commons.But once again, history is filled with examples of both politicians and movie stars that fell from grace like the story of the Hollywood actor giving in to the pressures of fame and fortune.With people, just as with products and services, image is certainly important, but without positive substance behind the image, failure is close.
To summarize, it is clear that an appealing image is extremely important to success, whether that image is related to selling a product or service or to the “selling” of a person.But image is only half of the equation.What lies behind that image is every bit as important as the image itself —— the person or product must deliver on that image or there is little chance for long-term success.
小题1:The downfall of the Arthur Andersen accounting firm is due to ________.
A.its dishonesty in businessB.its previous images
C.its bad managementD.its poor service
小题2:Why did some famous people fall from grace?
A.Their images were not well built up
B.They failed to live up to their images.
C.They felt much pressure from the public
D.They paid little attention to fame and fortune.
小题3:The structure of the passage is ________.
A: Argument              P: Point               C: Conclusion

小题4:The author tries to argue that _________.
A.image creates everythingB.image is the key to success
C.truth is unlikely ever to be equaledD.truth and image are equally important
Two sons worked for their father on the family farm. For some years, the 16 brother had been given more 17 to do than the older one. The older brother couldn’t 18 why, so one day he asked his father the 19 why he always trusted (信任) his younger brother to do more work.

The older brother soon 22 with the answer, "Yes, they have five ducks they can 23 to us."
That father then said, "Good, now please ask them the 24 for the ducks."
The son returned, "The ducks are £10 each."
The father asked, "25 can they deliver (交付) the ducks?"
The son returned, "They can deliver the ducks tomorrow."
The father asked the older brother to 26 and watch. He then said to the younger brother, "Go to the Davidson’s Farm and see if they have any ducks for sale."
The younger brother soon returned with the 27 , "Yes, they have 28 ducks for £10 each, 29 ten ducks for £8 each; and they can 30 them tomorrow —I asked them to deliver the five ducks 31 I told them not to in the next hour. We agreed that if I wanted the 32 five ducks I could buy them at £6 each."
The father 33 the older son, who nodded his head. He now 34 why his brother was given more work. His younger brother was actually 35 at it than he was.
