A man recognized as a genius in business circles was invited as an honor guest to a TV interview.Everybody was eager to hear a success story from him.He, 1 , only said with a slight smile:“Wouldn’t it be better for me to ask you for 2 (advise)on a certain problem?”
Here is the problem he raised:
“People all rushed to the place 3 a gold mine had recently been discovered but they were blocked by a river 4 (flow)across the only way to it.What would you do if you 5 (be)among them?”
“Make a roundabout(绕行的)way,” someone suggested.
“Swim across,” said another.
The genius smiled 6 a word.Then he gave his view:“Why not do 7 else instead of rushing to the mine? How about buying a boat to do some ferrying(摆渡)?”
The audience was shocked.He explained calmly:“The man could make 8 great amount of money from the passengers.They were willing to pay for the ferry 9 there was gold on the other bank.”
Do what others have not thought to do or something never attempted before-that is the key 10 success.A difficult circumstance, in the eyes of a wise man, often means a potential chance for success.

Charlie was sent to repair the telephone in a college. He stopped his car outside the gate and walked through a wide boulevard(林荫道) while a professor and his students were standing around the college flagpole(旗帜) in front of the teaching building. He stopped to watch what they were doing there.

The young men began to discuss it. They found several ways, but the professor negated(否定) them all. Charlie began to laugh and came up to the flagpole.
“Watch!”said the young man. He laid the flagpole on the ground and measured it with a tape and then said, “Exactly 15.12 metres.”Then he replaced the pole and walked away.

In today's world, we rely on computers as never before. They are used for everything from ordering a pizza to running hospitals and military defense systems. Banking and credit card information is stored and accessed by computers. So what happens when a computer gets infected with a virus? One effect is that people's access to their e-mail accounts is cut off. A more serious possible consequence is that billions of dollars could be lost.
A virus is a computer program that copies itself onto other programs and infects them. Similar to an easily spread disease, a computer virus goes from computer to computer, either adding to or changing the tasks a program is designed to do.
The first computer viruses were created in the mid '80s and had varying effects. Some caused files to be deleted, or made the letters on the screen appear to fall off. Others displayed a specific message once the computer was turned on.
Viruses today are much more widespread and dangerous than ever before. Perhaps the most damaging to date has been the "I Love You" virus. "I Love You" appeared in May 2000 and has possibly been the most destructive virus in terms of monetary loss.
The virus is released when an attachment to a fake e-mail message is opened. By changing the names of files on computers, "I Love You" makes them difficult to access. It also searches for important personal information, including passwords, which it sends to a web site for others to see.
It is estimated that more than 45 million people in 20 countries have had their computers infected by the "I Love You" virus. Some say the cost of repair and lost business has been more than US$10 billion.
If you own a computer, it is important to keep it in good health by installing an anti-virus program. If updated frequently, it will protect your e-mail access--not to mention your wallet.
