My dream was to be a 29 ．When I was sixteen, I could crush a baseball, throw a ninety – mile – per – hour fastball．I was also 30 : my high – school coach was Ollie Jarvis, who 31 me the difference between having a dream and showing strong belief．One particular 32 with him changed my life forever．
It was a summer and a friend recommended me for a summer 33 ．This meant a chance for my first income – cash for a new bike and new clothes, and the 34 of savings for a house for my mother．The opportunity was attracting, and I wanted to 35 at it．
Then I realized I would have to 36 summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing．I was 37 about this．
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as 38 as I expected him to be．“You have your whole life to work,” he said．“Your 39 days are limited．You can’t afford to waste them．”
I stood before him with my head 40 , trying to think of how to explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth 41 his disappointment in me．
“How much are you going to make at this job?” he demanded．
“$ 3．25 an hour,” I replied．
“Well, is $ 3．25 an hour the price of a 42 ?” he asked．
That 43 laid bare for me the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal．I devoted myself to 44 that summer, and within the year I was offered a $ 20,000 contract．I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $ 1．7 million, and bought my mother the 45 of my dreams．

Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness．It may not change what you think，but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time．
Life brings ups and downs，but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer．They only feel glad when they make others feel bad．No wonder they can hardly win others’ pity or respect．
When you communicate with positive people，your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted．When the dagger(匕首) of a negative person is put in you，you feel the heavy feeling that all in all，brings you down．
Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people．This could be a co-worker，or a relative．In this case，say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person，but all this does is to lower you to that same negative level and they won’t feel ashamed of themselves about that．
Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized．The negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to(附着) you throughout the rest of your day，which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness．Life is too short to feel negative．Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible．

In an instant, I realized what I had done．I acted with prejudice―I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be．I hated what I saw in myself．
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant．I left Honduras and arrived in the US at the age of 15．I started my new life with two suitcases, my brother and sister．Through the years, I have been a doorkeeper, cashier and pizza delivery driver among many other humble(卑微的)jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer．
In my own life, I have experienced prejudice．I remember a time―at the age of 17―when I was a busboy, I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me．
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am, where I have been ,and to lose sight of where I want to be going．That blind woman on the streets cured me of my blindness．She reminded me of my belief in humility(谦虚)．By the way, I helped that lady to the post office．I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson．
小题1:How did the writer give the blind woman money?
| A．In a modest way | B．In a polite way |
| C．In an impatient way． | D．In a painful way |
A．still lives a poor life
B．was busy with his work
C．was born in Honduras
D．was a native of Washington D．C．
小题3:According to the text, the author most probably agrees that one should__________．
| A．be nice to the elderly and the disabled |
| B．try to experience different kinds of culture |
| C．treat others equally with love and respect |
| D．think about one’s past as often as possible |
| A．A priceless lesson | B．An act of prejudice |
| C．A sightseeing trip | D．A humble moment |
It had been a year since Susan became blind. As the result of an accident she was suddenly thrown into a world of 37 . Susan’s husband Mark watched her 38 into hopelessness and he was 39 to use every possible means to help his wife.
Finally, Susan felt ready to 40 to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but she was now too 41 to get around the city by herself. Mark 42 to ride the bus with Susan each morning and evening 43 she could manage it by herself.
For two weeks, Mark 44 Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other 45 , specifically her hearing, to determine where she was and how to adapt to her new 46 .
At last, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip 47 . Monday morning arrived. Before she left, she hugged her husband 48 , her eyes filled with tears of gratitude（感激）. She said good-bye and, for the first time, they went their 49
ways. Each day went perfectly,
