When I met him，I had a lot of anger inside of me. I've lived my whole
life in Spanish Harlem，but in my neighborhood，there are shoot¬ups all
the time. I know kids who have been shot or beaten up .I have friends
who ended up in prison. I could have ended up that way，too，but Mr. Clark
wouldn't let that happen.
Mr. Clark worked long hours，making sure I did my work. My grades rose.
In fact，the scores of our whole class rose. One day，he took our class
to see The Phantom of the Opera ，and it was the first time some kids
had ever been out of Harlem. Before the show，he treated us to dinner
at a restaurant and taught us not to talk with our mouths full. We did
not want to let him down.
Mr. Clark was selected as Disney's 2000 Teacher of the Year. He said he
would draw three names out of a hat；those students would to with him
to Los Angeles to get the award. But when the time came to draw names，Mr. Clark said，“You're all going.”
On graduation day，there were a lot of tears. We didn't want his class
to end. In 2001，he moved to Atlanta，but we always kept in touch. He
started giving lectures about education，and wrote a bestselling book based on his classroom rules，The Essential 55.
In 2003，Mr. Clark took some of us on a trip to South Africa to deliver
school supplies and visit the orphanages (孤儿院)．It was the most amazing
experience of my life. It's now my dream to one day start a group of
women's clubs，helping people from all backgrounds.

参考答案21--24ADBD
B
It’s hard not to feel cheated and over-charged when you receive
unexpected roaming (漫游) charges while traveling abroad—whether they
come from making phone calls or checking e-mails.
Jeff Gardner received an $ 11,000 bill from Verizon after spending
four days in Jamaica. Before the trip, Mr. Gardner, who runs a fly-fishing
business in Grayling, Michigan, said he called Verizon to find out what
it would cost to use his cellphone for calls and his wireless card to
check e-mails while in Jamaica. He said he was told that calls would be
about $ 2 a minute and that there would be no extra charges for data as
he was on an unlimited plan. The latter part turned out to be wrong.
“I don’t mind paying a fair amount for fair service, but $11,000
for four days is ridiculous,” said Mr. Gardner, who used his phone
carefully and economically on the trip. He also tried to check and send
e-mails using his wireless card, but quickly gave up after the e-mails
didn’t go through. Still, his Verizon bill said more than 500,000
kilobytes (千字节) of data was delivered while he was in Jamaica, an amount Mr. Gardner said is 100 times what he normally uses in a month.
As travelers increasingly use smart phones abroad in the same way
they do at home—to check e-mails, update Facebook and Twitter and pull
up online maps—many are facing costly roaming fees, which providers
charge when customers use their phones outside their service area. In
fact, roaming charges have gotten so out of hand that the Federal
Communications Commission has proposed a plan that would require
wireless companies to send their customers a voice or text message when
they are approaching their plan’s limit, when they have reached that
limit and when they are starting to result in roaming fees.
25. Why did Jeff Gardner call Verizon before his trip to Jamaica?
A. To hand over his business. B. To check his cellphone bill
C. To find out information about Jamaica.
D. To find out information about roaming charges.
26. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Extra charges were made for Jeff Gardner’s data delivery.
B. Jeff Gardner’s calls were charged over $2 per minute.
