It was my mother's idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the petition.With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was supper time, I walked back home.“ How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“ None.”“ Where did you go?”“ The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”“ What did you do?”“ St ood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”“ You just stood there?”“ Didn't sell a single one.”“ My God, Russell!”Uncle Alle n put in, “ Well, I've decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence(自信), and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.One day, I told my mother I'd changed my mind. I didn't want to make a success in the magazine business.“ I f you think you can change your mind like this,”she replied, “ you'll bee a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me. My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my father's plain workman's life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband's people for true life and love.26. Why did the boy start his job young?A. He wanted to be famous in the futureB. The job was quite easy for himC. His mother had high hopes for himD. The petition for the job was fierce27.

Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them.

Yet, unfortunately, few attempts(29) (make) to educate fathers in this remobilization process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of a father.It is argued by some writers that the transition to the father's role, although difficult, is not nearly as (30) (great) as the transition the wife must make to the mother's role. The mother's role seems(31) (require) complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative adaptation; on the other hand, the father's role isless demanding and immediate.

There are currently over 200 000 from outside Britain studying at British universities. The largest single groupis Chinese students. T here are currently 50 000 in the UK. The British government expects the total number of overseas students to be around 900 000 by 2020,and also thinks that a quarter of these will be Chinese.But why is the UK such a popular destination for university students?Well, the quality of your course is guaranteed. All courses are assessed by an independent system, so you can be assured that your course is officially approved and has wide international recognition.The British education system is very flexible in order to provide for the needs ofa modern, complex society. It is also cost-effective. Degree courses are usually 3 years long, which is shorter and more intensive than in other countries. There are lotsof scholarships available.You normally need 3 A-levels, which are the exams taken by people leaving school at 18,in order to enter an undergraduate degree course. You also need an IELTS score of at least 5.5, but many universities offer foundation or access courses to prepare students for their studies.British universities offer a personalized but independent approach. The emphasisis on creative and independent thought, which helps develop the skills you will needto compete in the global job market. Tutors not only teach but also provide supportand guidance. As a result, international students have a very low drop out rate and very high pass rates.It is very simple to become an international student in the UK. The British Council offers a free and impartial service to anyone who is interested in studying in the UK, and an organization called UCAS assists you in finding a course and making an effective application.The UK is an energetic place. The countryside is beautiful, and the theatres, museums, architecture and rich history make it a fascinating place to live and study.Keys: DEKIG HBCJAIII.

Or is it better to keep firm control through theBank of Mom and Dad? The "correct" answer will vary by family and personalpreference.The Credit Card Act that took effect 2.5 years ago made it much harder for anyoneunder 21 to get a card. Gone are the days of card issuers collecting plenty of newcustomers on campus by handing out free T-shirts or rewards points for spring break.Under-21s can still obtain a credit card if they have a qualified co-signer or proofof sufficient income to repay the debt. And card issuers still market aggressively tocollege students, targeting them with pre-screened mail offers. That makes parents, asthe likeliest co-signers, more involved in the card-or-no-card decision.Robyn Kahn Federman of Rochester, N.Y., says there’s “no way” she’ll let eitherof her two daughters have a credit card at such a financially tender age. Her daughterSarah, who’s 19 and about to start her second year of college, uses Robyn’s Pay card instead. That lets her mom fund the balance and see how she spends her money.“I don’t think anything related to debt belongs in the hands of a college kid,says Federman, communications director of a marketing agency. “The vast majority are not experienced enough with money or aware enough of the r isks.”Some students, though, have shown they’re disciplined enough to have their own card on campus.Scott Gamm, 20, a junior at New York University's Stern School of Business,used his income from freelance(自由职业的) work and blogging to obtain a Visa cardand then an American Express card. He charges $200 to $300 on them monthly andpays every bill in full.But he has friends who obtained three or four cards within a year and now havebig debts.age, the higher the“The more credit you have access to, especially at that youngprobability you’ll use that card to finance fancy clothes, restaurants andentertainment.” says Gamm.66.

As of 6 p.m. Tuesday, 14 peoplehad been rescued from the capsized vessel, with five others confirmed dead. The rest are still missing, although rescuers said there could be more survivors. Strong winds and heavy rain are hampering rescue efforts.The Eastern Star sank in only 15 meters of water “within one or two minutes” of being caught in freak weather in Jianli, according to the ship’s captain and chief engineer who survived the incident. The ship left the eastern Chinese city ofNanjingon May 28 bound forChongqingMunicipality.The ship was carrying 403 passengers, five tour guides, and 46 crew, rather than the previously reported 47.

The Chinese Navy has sent diving forces to search for the missing. The team is composed of soldiers from the navy’s fleets in the North Sea, East China Sea, andSouth China Sea, as well as students of the Naval University of Engineering.

The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to ________.A. informB. explainC. describeD. entertainCHave you ever thrown a camel? Camels are large and heavy animals so it would be hard to throw. But in the French-speaking Democratic Republic ofthe Congo, “to throw a camel” is a way of saying “to make a spelling mistake”.In the past, a phrase like that was not accepted by the French government as an official French term. But recently, the French Ministry of Culture worked on a new kind of dictionary that accepts the idea that many people outside of France speak the language. The language has changed over time and is different in places like Ivory Coast in West Africa or Quebec in Cana-da, compared to how it is in ParisA new online dictionary, called the French speakers’ dictionary, includes new French words from around the world. It was released on March 18—just in time for International French Speaker’s Day on March 20.Supporters say the new Internet dictionary is more democratic than earlier French dictionaries that only showed the way highly educated French people spoke. The new dictionary includes unofficial words like “pourriel”, which means an unwanted email if you are in Canada. It is a word based on “courriel”, which just means an email.French President Emmanuel Macron proposed the idea of the dictionary in 2018. It now contains about600.000 terms, Roselyne Bachelot is the French Culture Minister. She said the dictionary is not just for France's 67 million citizens, but for the 300 million French speakers worldwide.The aim, supporters say, is to recognize the way language changes. Words and expressions included in the dictionary come from over 50 countries—even from the United States Some people in the southern U. S. state of Louisiana speak French.People can see the dictionary on a website or with an app. Users can also send in new words they think should be included. Official dictionaries produced by the French Academy in Paris were first published hundreds of years ago and are regularly updated.8. What do we mean if we say a man “throws a camel” in French?A. He talks big.B. He is very strong.C. He makes a joke.D. He misspells a word.9. What is the purpose of the publication date of the new online dictionary?A. To celebrate an event.B. To honor foreign users.C. To draw more attention.D. To meet an urgent need.10. Where does the word “pourriel” come from?A. French.B. An email.C. A holiday.D. Canada.11. What can people do with the new dictionary?A. Update it regularly.B. Recommend new words to it.C. Change the meaning of its words.D. Regard it as an official dictionary.DWhen Chip heard the mail truck arriving on his sixth birthday, herushed out—not knowing that he’d come back with a treasure.Outside the house, which was decorated with birthday balloons, postwoman Shelley held a pile of boxes.
