　　Like any other American 18-year-old, Michael Sessions will attend high school from 8 a. m．to 3 p. m．and after 6 p. m. he will do his homework．But from 3 p. m. -6 p. m., he will carry out his new job as the elected Mayor of Hillsdale, Michigan．

　　Although he was too young to celebrate his success over the 51-year-old rival－by two votes－with champagne or any other alcoholic drink, the youngest elected official in America is determined to discharge(履行)his civic duties seriously．

　　Mr．Sessions, who turned 18 in September ran for Mayor on a budget(预算)of ＄700 earned from a summer job and on a promise of working to increase Hillsdale’s contingent(分谴队)of full-time firefighters from three to four．

　　His rival was defeated by an energetic door-to-door campaign made all more remarkable because Mr．Sessions was a “write-in” candidate．He was too young to register(登记)as a candidate(候选人)before nominations closed for the printed ballots(选票), so his supporters had to write in his name on election day．

　　“Obviously, the people of Hillsdale took me seriously, ”the teenager said．“A lot of older people really enjoyed talking to me．I look at them in the eye．Young people could relate to me．”

　　He told the reporter, “It’s just a state of trying to believe it－especially that 670 people took the time to write my name in．My heart’s racing．”

(1)

[　　]
A．	he didn’t want to hurt his rival
B．	he was not all allowed to have that sort of drink at his age
C．	he had no time
D．	he didn’t believe he had won

(2)

From the passage, we can know a “write-in” candidate is a candidate ________．
[　　]
A．	who is only 18-year-old
B．	who wins in the election
C．	who hasn’t registered in the election
D．	who visits people door-to-door before the election

(3)

[　　]

　　Andrew Carnegie was a 19th century steel tycoon(大亨)who became one of the 20th century's most famous philanthropists(慈善家)His life story is one of the most famous rags-to-riches accounts in United States history．

　　Carnegie was born in Dunfermlined, Scotland, on November 25,1835．The son of a weaver, he came with his family to the United States in 1848 and settled in Allegheny, Pennsylvania．At age thirteen, Carnegie went to work as a bobbin(线轴)boy in a cotton mill．He then moved rapidly through a series of jobs with Western Union and the Pnnsylvania Railroad．In 1865, he resigned to establish his own business and eventually organized the Carnegie Steel Company, which started the steel industry in Pittsburgh．At age sixty-five, he sold the company to J．P．Morgan for ＄480 million and devoted the rest of his life to his philanthropic activities and writing, including his autobiography(自传)．

　　Many persons of wealth have contributed to charity, but Carnegie was perhaps the first to state publicly that the rich have a moral responsibility to donate their fortune．In 1889 he wrote The Gospe(福音)of Wealth, in which he stated that all personal wealth beyond what was required to supply the needs of one's family should be regarded as a trust fund to be managed for the benefit of the company．

　　Carnegie set about giving away his fortune through countless personal gifts and through the establishment of various trusts．In his thirties, Carnegie had already begun to give away some of his fast-accumulating funds．His first large gifts were made to his native town．Later he created seven philanthropic and educational organizations in the United States, including Carnegie Corporation of New York, and several more in Europe．

　　One of Carnegie's lifelong interests was the establishment of free public libraries to make available to everyone a means of self-education．There were only a few public libraries in the world when, in 1881, Carnegie began to promote his idea．He and the Corporation subsequently(随后)spent over ＄56 million to build 2,509 libraries throughout the English-speaking world．

　　After this program was ended in 1917, the Corporation continued for about forty years an interest in the improvement of library services．Other major program in the Corporation's early history included adult education and education in the fine arts．

　　During his lifetime, Carnegie gave away over ＄350 million．He died in Lenox, Massachusetts on August 11,1919．
