Road to Success1．________
Many of the leading businessmen of Pittsburgh had a serious responsibility thrust upon them at the initial stage of their career．They were introduced to the broom, and spent the first hours of their business lives sweeping out the office．I notice we have professional sweepers now in offices, and our young men unfortunately miss that useful branch of business education．But if by chance the professional sweeper is absent any morning, the boy who has the genius of the future partner in him will not hesitate to try his hand at the broom．It does not hurt the newest comer to sweep out the office if necessary．I was one of those sweepers myself．
2．________
Assuming that you have all obtained employment and are fairly started, my advice to you is to be ambitious．I would think nothing of the young man who does not already see himself the partner or the head of an important firm．Do not rest content for a moment in your thoughts as head clerk, or foreman, or general manager in any concern, no matter how extensive．Say to yourself, “My place is at the top．” Be king in your dreams．
3．________
Persistence is the consistent factor in most people who succeed, no matter what they are succeeding at．Yet, in the work place we often seem to forget to persist what we are doing．It's easy to get discouraged when you continually try to achieve something and it doesn't work out．But remember that if you try long enough, hard enough and make adjustments along the way, sooner or later you will get to your goal．
4．________
And here is another prime condition of success, the great secret：focus your energy, thought, and capital totally upon the business in which you are engaged．Having begun in one line, resolve to fight it out on that line, to lead in it, adopt every improvement, have the best machinery, and know the most about it．
5．________
The companies which fail are those which have scattered their capital, which means that they have scattered their brains also．They have investments in this, or that, or the other, here there, and everywhere．“Don't put all your eggs in one basket．” is all wrong．I tell you to “put all your eggs in one basket, and then watch that basket．” Look round you and take notice, men who do that not often fail．It is easy to watch and carry the one basket．It is trying to carry too many baskets that breaks most eggs in this country．He who carries three baskets must put one on his head, which is easy to fall and trip him up．
To summarize what I have said：aim for the highest; never enter a bar room; never speculate; never indorse beyond your surplus cash fund; make the firm's interest yours; put all your eggs in one basket, and watch that basket; for as Emerson says, “no one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourselves．”

Road to Success 1. Many of the leading businessmen of Pittsburgh had a serious responsibility thrust upon them at the initial stage of their career. They were introduced to the broom, and spent the first hours of their business lives sweeping out the office. I notice we have professional sweepers now in offices, and our young men unfortunately miss that useful branch of business education. But if by chance the professional sweeper is absent any morning, the boy who has the genius of the future partner in him will not hesitate to try his hand at the broom. It does not hurt the newest comer to sweep out the office if necessary. I was one of those sweepers myself. 2. Assuming that you have all obtained employment and are fairly started, my advice to you is to be ambitious. I would think nothing of the young man who does not already see himself the partner or the head of an important firm. Do not rest content for a moment in your thoughts as head clerk, or foreman, or general manager in any concern, no matter how extensive. Say to yourself, “My place is at the top.” Be king in your dreams. 3. Persistence is the consistent factor in most people who succeed, no matter what they are succeeding at. Yet, in the work place we often seem to forget to persist what we are doing. It’s easy to get discouraged when you continually try to achieve something and it doesn’t work out. But remember that if you try long enough, hard enough and make adjustments along the way, sooner or later you will get to your goal. 4. And here is another prime condition of success, the great secret: focus your energy, thought, and capital totally upon the business in which you are engaged. Having begun in one line, resolve to figh t it out on that line, to lead in it, adopt every improvement, have the best machinery, and know the most about it. 5. The companies which fail are those which have scattered their capital, which means that they have scattered their brains also. They have investments in this, or that, or the other, here there, and everywhere. “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” is all wrong. I tell you to “put all your eggs in one basket, and then watch that basket.” Look round you and take notice, men who do that not often fail. It is easy to watch and carry the one basket. It is trying to carry too many baskets that breaks most eggs in this country. He who carries three baskets must put one on his head, which is easy to fall and trip him up. To summarize what I have said: aim for the highest; never enter a bar room; never speculate; never indorse beyond your surplus cash fund; make the firm’s interest yours; put all your eggs in one basket, and watch that basket; for as Emerson says, “no one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourselves.” |
Tess still stood hesitating like a swimmer about to make his dive, hardly knowing whether to return or move forward, when a figure came out from the dark door of the tent. It was a tall young man, smoking.
He had an almost black face, though red and smooth. His moustache was black with curled points, though he could not be more than twenty-three or-four. There was all unusual force in his face, and in his daring rolling eyes.
“Well, my beauty, what can I do for you?” said he, coming forward. And seeing that she was quite at a loss: “Never mind me, I am Mr. d’Urbervilles. Have you come to see me or my mother”
This differed greatly from what Tess had expected. She had dreamed of an aged and dignified face. She tried to keep calm and answered-“I came to see your mother, sir.”
“I am afraid you cannot see her-she is ill in bed,” replied the representative of the house; for this was Mr. Alec, the only son of the noble family. “What is the business you wish to see her about?”
“It isn’t business-it is-I can hardly say what.”
“Pleasure”
“Oh no. Why, sir, if I tell you, it will seem…”
Tess’s sense of a certain ridicule was now so strong that despite her general discomfort at being here, her rosy lips curved（弯曲）towards a smile, much to the attraction of the young man.
“It is so foolish,” she stammered（结结巴巴地说）; “I fear I can’t tell you”
“Never mind; I like foolish things. Try again, my dear,” said he kindly.
“Mother asked me to come,” Tess continued, “and, indeed, I was in the mind to do so myself. But I did not think it would be like this. I came, sir, to tell you that we are of the same family as you.”
“Ho! Poor relations!”
“Yes.”
“Stokes”
“No; d’Urbervilles.”
“Ay, ay; I mean d’Urbervilles.”
“Our names are worn away to Durbeyfield; but we have several proofs that we are d’Urbervilles. The local scholars hold the view that we are, …and…and we have an old seal（印章）and a silver spoon marked with the same castle as yours. So mother said we ought to make ourselves known to you, as we’ve lost our horse by a bad accident; we can hardly make a living.”
“Very kind of your mother, I’m sure.” Alec looked at Tess as he spoke, in a way that made her uneasy. ”And so, my pretty girl, you’ve come on a friendly visit to us, as relations.”
“I suppose I have,” looking less confident and uncomfortable again.
“Well—there’s no harm in it. Where do you live? What are you?”
—Tess of the d’Urbervilles By Thomas Hardy
67. How does Tess feel in the whole course of the meeting with Alec？
A. Excited and hopeful B. Nervous and uncomfortable
C. Surprised but comfortable D. Pleased but embarrassed
68. In the eyes of Tess, Alec is ________.
A. forceful and daring B. unfriendly and talkative
C. a gentle and reliable man D. older than she had expected
69. Why does Tess pay the visit to the d’Urbervilles？
A. To see Alec himself.
B. To see Alec’s mother.
C. To confirm that they are of the same family.
D. To make known their relationship and seek help.
70. Alec appears quite friendly to Tess mainly because ________.
A. Tess is his distant relation B. Tess looks polite to him
C. Toss is a pretty girl D. Tess looks ridiculous
D
