17、 her Mom in Wal-Mart. She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful brown haired, freckle (雀斑 )-faced image of innocence. It was 31 outside, the kind of rain that spilt over the top of gutters (檐槽 ), so much in a hurry to 32 the Earth. We all 33 there inside the door of the Wal-Mart. We all waited,

18、 some patient, others 34 , because nature messed up their hurried day. I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens 35 away the dirt and dust of the world. Memories of running and splashing so carefree as a child came pouring in as a welcome 36 from the worries of my day. Her voice was so sweet

19、as it 37 the depressing atmosphere. “Mom, lets run through the rain,” she said. “What?” Mom asked. “Lets run through the rain!” She repeated. “No, honey.

When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said, if God can get us through this, he can get us through 40 !” The entire crowd stopped

21、dead 41 . No one came or left in the next few minutes. Mom 42 and thought for a while about what she would say. This was a moment of affirmation (肯定 ) in a young childs life, a time when 43 trust could be nurtured (培育 ) so that it would bloom into 44 . “Honey, you are 45 right. Lets run through the

22、rain. If we get wet, maybe we just need washing.” Mom said. Then off they ran. We all stood watching, smiling as they ran past the cars.

28、tanley Vine sat, waiting for his new employer. The surrounding green fields were so unlike the muddy landscape of war-torn France. After four horrible years as an army private fighting in Europe, Stanley had returned to England in February, 1946. Armed now with some savings and with no prospects for

29、 a job in England, he answered a newspaper ad for farm help in Canada. Two months later he was on his way. When the old car rumbled toward the tiny station, Stanley rose to his feet, trying to make the most of his five feet and four inch frame. The farmer, Alphonse Lapine, shook his head and complai

30、ned, “Youre a skinny thing.” On the way to his dairy farm, Alphonse explained that he had a wife and seven kids. “Moneys tight. Youll get room and board. Youll get up at dawn for milking, and then help me around the farm until evening milking time again. Ten dollars a week. Sundays off.” Stanley nod

31、ded. He had never been on a farm before, but he took the job. From the beginning Stanley was treated horribly by the whole family. They made fun of the way he dressed and talked. He could do nothing right. The humourless farmer frequently lost his temper, criticizing Stanley for the slightest mistak

32、e. The oldest son, 13-year-old Armand, constantly played nasty tricks on him. But the kind-hearted Stanley never responded. Stanley never became part of the Lapine family. After work, they ignored him. He spent his nights alone in a tiny bedroom. However, each evening before retiring, he lovingly ca

33、red for the farmers horses, eagerly awaiting him at the field gate. He called them his gentle giants. On Saturday nights he hitch-hiked into the nearest town and wandered the streets or enjoyed a restaurant meal before returning to the farm. Early one November morning Alphonse Lapine discovered that

34、 Stanley had disappeared, after only six months as his farmhand. The railway station master, when questioned later that week, said he had not seen him. In fact no one in the community ever heard of him again. That is, until one evening, almost 20 years later, when Armand opened an American sports ma

35、gazine and came across a shocking headline, “Millionaire jockey, Stanley Vine, ex-British soldier and 5-time horse riding champion, began life in North America as a farmhand in Canada.” 51. Stanley Vine decided to go to Canada because _. A. he wanted to escape from war-torn France B. he wanted to se

36、rve in the Canadian army C. he couldnt find a job in England D. he loved working as a farmhand 52. What did Stanley like doing after work each day? A. Hitch-hiking to different towns. B. Caring for the farmers horses. C. Wandering around the farm alone. D. Preparing meals on the farm. 53. What can w

37、e infer from the passage? A. When Stanley first met his employer, he tried to impress him but failed. B. Stanley had never worked on a farm, so he made few mistakes. C. Stanleys weekly salary was not enough for him to live on. D. Stanley left the farm by train, without telling anyone why he did so.

38、54. Why was Armand so astonished when he read about Stanley in the magazine? A. He didnt know Stanley had been a British soldier. B. He had no idea Stanley had always been a wealthy man. C. He didnt know his father paid Stanley so little money. D. He didnt expect Stanley to become such a success. B

39、When your parents advise you to “get an education” in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower (人力资源 ) for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society. Get a high school

40、diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully drop out in grade school. Get a college degree, if possible. With a B.A., you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put

41、 on the brakes. If you go for a masters degree, make sure it is an M.B.A., and the famous law of diminishing (逐渐减少的 ) returns begins to take effect. Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average salary for those truckers was $24,000

42、 while the full professors managed to earn just $23,030. A doctorate is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you wi

43、ll face a future which is not bright. There are more doctors unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world. If you become a doctor in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages or worst of all in philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overed

44、ucated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands. Thousands of doctors are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater (闭塞 ) college that pays much

45、less than the doorkeeper earns. You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you. 55. Many doctors are out of job because _. A. they are impro

46、perly educated B. they are of little commercial value to their society C. there are fewer jobs in high schools D. they prefer easier jobs that make more money 56. The nation is only interested in people _. A. with diplomas B. who specialize in physics and chemistry C. who are valuable to the gross n

47、ational product D. who receive little education 57. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Bernard Shaw didnt finish high school, nor did Edison. B. One must think carefully before pursuing a masters degree. C. The higher your education level, the more money you will earn. D. If you are too well-educated, youll be overeducated for societys demands. 58. The writer sees education as _. A. a means of providing job security and financial security and a means of meeting a countrys demands for technical workers B. a way t
