One incident is 23 in my mind. It happened when I was a teenager. My sister and I weren’t very fond of a so-called friend of 24 . Dad was a very generous man, and as he’d done with so many people, he’d given this fellow great help. But when he asked for a favor 25 , the guy didn’t deliver.
Dad’s outlook(人生观)on most things was “Live and let live.” In this case, however, his calmness 26 Terre and me, and we let him know it.
“How can you be nice to that man?” we said to him. “You’ve been so kind to him, and he’s not being kind back. Why would you want to give him the time of day again?”
My father shrugged(耸肩)and said to us, “I do not bend my back with 27 . ”
I didn’t get it at first, but over the years I came to understand the 28 . Holding a grudge(怨恨)doesn’t 29 the person you’re angry with, but it changes you. It makes you heavier and gives you more weight to drag around.
After my father died in 1991, a (n) 30 came from a fellow I’d had a quarrel with years before to 31 his sympathy. He wrote: “I thought I’d tell you how sorry I am 32 the loss of your father. I know he 33 the world to you. I just wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts. ”
Much moved, I wrote back. I thanked him for his 34 . And then, because he’d 35
our disagreement, I recalled Dad’s inspiring words. “I am my father’s daughter,” I wrote. “And like him, I do not bend my back with yesterday.”

Myth 1: The aim of interviewing is to obtain (means “get”) a job offer.
Only half true. The real aim of an interview is to obtain the job you want. That often means rejecting job offers you don’t want! So before you please an employer, be sure you want the job.
Myth 2: Always please the interviewer
Not true. Try to please yourself. Of course, don’t be hostile—nobody wants to hire someone disagreeable. But there is plainly a muddle ground between being too ingratiating(逢迎)and being hostile.
Myth 3: Try to control the interview
Nobody “controls” an interview. When someone tries to control us, we resent(憎恨)it. When we try to control others, they resent us. Remember you can’t control what an employer thinks of you, just as he can’t control what you think of him. So he is ready to give and take when being interviewed; never control the interview.
Myth 4: Never interrupt the interviewer
Study the style of the effective conversationalists: they interrupt and are interrupted! An exciting conversation always makes us feel free—free to interrupt, to disagree, to agree enthusiastically. Just hang loose. Try being yourself for a change. Employers will either like or dislike you, but at least you’ll have made an impression. Leaving an employer indifferent(冷漠的)is the worst impression you can make.
小题1:To be your natural self in a job interview will__________.
A.make your interviewer angry | B.please your interviewer |
C.leave an impression on the interviewer | D.leave the interviewer indifferent to you |
A.affect the interviewer’s opinion of them |
B.lead to the offer of a job |
C.enable them to express themselves fully |
D.help to create a favorable image of themselves |
A.try to obtain the job | B.reject the job first |
C.qualify yourself for the job | D.see if it is a job you want |
A.obedient | B.hostile | C.pleasing | D.agreeable |
A.stay calm and relaxed | B.become weak and passive |
C.take charge | D.sit back comfortably |
It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 1 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We’ve called for a (n) 2 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.”
Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 3 .
The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they 4 the charcoal (木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (喷洒) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames 5 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.
6 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and rolled him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in 7 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars (伤疤). So, he had to return to college with scars.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch, very 8 scar on her arm. “Ann, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It doesn’t mean they won’t 9 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I 10 this wisdom (智慧) on to my son. He took my advice to 11 and returned to school with his head held high — glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not matter, so he made the 12 to give up any plastic surgery (外科手术).
We all have “scars” that 13 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 14 standards(标准). Put your imperfections out of your 15 and concentrate (集中) on what you value within yourself, and your beauty will shine through.

You know you have arrived in the heart of the Chihuahuan Desert when it feels as if you have fallen off the edge of the earth and into the rabbit hole. Nothing is as it appears. Moths (蛀虫) are the size of birds. Are those twin pillars (柱) of black rock (a landmark known as Mule Ear Peaks) ten miles (16 kilometers) away or fifty (80 kilometers)? Visibility (能见度) reaches more than a hundred miles on a clear day, and since there are few roads or buildings to use as milestones, distance is difficult to judge.
This is a place where water runs uphill, where rainbows have to wait for rain. The line between myth (虚构的故事) and reality is unclear. Stare long enough at the Chisos Mountains or the Sierra del Carmen, the two mountain ranges, known as sky islands, which lie on the land, and they rise and float above the plain.
The vast Chihuahuan Desert is a land of no people. There is always the chance you’ll die of thirst. The “You Can Die”possibilities are endless, and keep some visitors — 350,000 a year to Big Bend National Park, built in 1944 — from coming back. Those who do return are left to think of the remarkable courage of the brave few who have managed to survive in this terrible environment.
小题1:The underlined word“untamed”in Paragraph 1 means“________”.
A.untouched | B.wild | C.unchanged | D.fresh |
A.They were put so far away. |
B.They lie across the Chihuahuan Desert. |
C.It is difficult to judge the distance, with few milestones. |
D.One lies in the Chisos Mountains, the other in the Sierra del Carmen. |
A.350,000 years. | B.350 years. | C.66 years. | D.44 years. |
A.The natural wonders of the Chihuahuan Desert. |
B.Everything you see is not what it seems in the Chihuahuan Desert. |
C.The terrible environment of deserts in Texas and Mexico. |
D.A special place where none who go can return. |
A.There are all kinds of living things in the Chihuahuan Desert. |
B.No people live in the Big Bend region. |
C.Nothing is as it appears in the Big Bend region. |
D.Traveling in the Big Bend region is dangerous. |
I was very 41 indeed. I said to the friend who was with me, “ he talked to me like this 42 he doesn’t know that I am a famous writer. If he knew…But before I could 43 my sentence my friend said, “Don’t be 44 . How could that help you? Whoever you are, there are no 45 seats on the train.” I was 46 he was wrong, so I went up to the same official again and told him that I was Mark Twain. But all he said, “I told you not to trouble me any more.”
Just then I 47 a young porter in a sleeping car looking at me, He whispered something to the train conductor, and that conductor came over to me and said very 48 , “ Can I help you, sir?” “ I 49 do.” I answered.
The porter took out boxes and we got on to the train. When the porter saw we were comfortably 50 in our places, he said, “Now. Is there anything you want, sir? Because you can have whatever you 51 .”
After the porter had gone, my friend looked 52 . He said. “I am 53 sorry I said those things to you just now…” Just then the porter came again and said. “ Oh. Sir, I 54 you immediately”. “Really?” I said happily, “of course”, he said. “I recognized you the 55 I saw you and told the conductor that you are Mr Smith, the mayor of New York City.”
