[详细]举一反三
My wife and I used to feel that it was impossible to be a true friend to someone whose name we didn’t know. How wrong we were! Years of Sunday-morning bus trips through the city with the same group of “nameless” people have changed our thinking. Before the bus takes off, we all join in a conversation: where’s the silent woman who sits up front and never responds to our cheery greetings? Here she comes. Her worn clothing suggests she doesn’t have much money to spare, but she always takes an extra cup of coffee for the driver.
We get smiles from a Mexican couple as they get on the bus hand in hand. When they get off, they’re still holding hands. The woman was pregnant late last year, and one day her change of shape confirmed that she’d delivered the child. We even felt a little pride at the thought of our extended family.
For many months, our only sadness lay in our inability to establish the same friendship with the silent woman at the front of the bus. Then, one evening, we went to a fish restaurant. We were shown to a table alongside someone sitting alone. It was the woman from the bus.
We greeted her with friendly familiarity we’d shown all year, but this time her face softened, then a shy smile. When she spoke, the words escaped awkwardly from her lips. All at once we realized why she hadn’t spoken to us before. Talking was hard for her.
Over dinner; we learned the stay of a single mother with a disabled son who was receiving special care away from home. She missed him desperately, she explained.
“I love him… and he loves me, even though he doesn’t express it very well,” she murmured. “Lots of us have that problem, don’t we? We don’t say what we want to say, what we should be saying. And that’s not good enough.”The candles flared on our tables. Our fish had never tasted better. But the atmosphere grew pleasant, and when we parted as friends—we shared names.

When Julie was a child, she was a very big fan of animals. As a result, 36 she ever heard growing up was “Julie, you should be a vet. You’re going to be a great vet. That’s what you should do.” 37 when she got to the Ohio State University, she started studying to be a vet.
A scholarship allowed her to spend her 38 year studying abroad in Manchester, England. Away from the family 39 back home, she found herself one day sitting at her desk, surrounded by biology books and staring out the window, when it suddenly hit her: “I’m in total 40 . I don’t want to be a vet!”
41 she thought back over all the things she’d done in her life and what had made her happy. And then it hit her—it was all of the youth leadership conferences that she had volunteered 42 , and the communications and leadership courses she had taken as elective courses back at Ohio State. “How could I have been so 43 ? Here I am in my fourth year at school and just finally realizing I’m on the 44 path. I just never took the time to 45 it until now, ” she thought.
Inspired by her new 46 , Julie spent the rest of her year in England taking courses in communications and media studies. When 47 to Ohio State, she was eventually able to 48 the administration to let her create her own program in “leadership studies”, 49 it took her 2 years longer to finally graduate. She 50 to become a senior management consultant in leadership training and development for the Pentagon. She 51 founded a drug-prevention organization that 52 the message “Lead your own life with the skill and the 53 to say no.”
So, never live someone else’s 54 . If you limit your 55 only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want.

Some years ago I was offered a writing assignment that would require three months of travel through Europe. I had been abroad a couple of times，but I could hardly claim to know my way around the continent. Moreover, my knowledge of foreign languages was limited to a little college French.
I hesitated. How would I, unable to speak the language, totally unfamiliar with local geography or transportation systems, set up interviews and do research? It seemed impossible, and with considerable regret. I sat down to write a letter begging off. Halfway through, a thought ran through my mind： you can"t learn if you don"t try. So I accepted the assignment.
There were some bad moments. But by the time I had finished the trip I was an experienced traveler. And ever since，I have never hesitated to head for even the most remote of places，without guides or even advanced bookings, confident that somehow I will manage.
The point is that the new, the different, is almost scary by definition. But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning piles up, the world opens to you.
I"ve learned to ski at 40, and flown up the Rhine River in a balloon. And I know I"ll go on doing such things. It"s not because I"m braver or more daring than others. I"m not. But I"ll accept anxiety as another name for challenge and I believe I can accomplish wonders.
小题1:The author accepted the assignment because _____| A． he had never travelled abroad before | | B． he hardly knew any foreign languages | | C． he was familiar with any other country in Europe | | D． he would learn something new and different by trying |

小题3:We can infer from the text that the author is _____.| A．awkward | B．generous | C．stubborn | D．brave |
小题4:What"s the best title of the text?| A．An Interesting Trip Abroad | B．My First Writing Assignment | | C．Ready to Try and Challenge | D．How to Be Daring and Brave |

It was the last day of the final examination in a large eastern university. On the steps of one building, a group of engineering students were talking about the exam that was going to begin in a few 36 . On their faces was confidence . This was their last exam — then on to 37 and jobs.
Some talked of jobs they already had; others talked of jobs they 38 get. With the certainty of four years of college, they felt ready and able to take 39 of the world.
The coming exam, they knew, would be a(n) 40 task. The professor had said they could bring 41 books or notes they wanted, requesting only that they did not 42 each other, during the test.
43 they entered the classroom. The professor passed out the papers. And smiles 44 on the students’ faces as they noted(注意到) there were only five essay-type questions.
Three hours had passed 45 the professor began to collect the papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was a frightened expression. Papers in hand, no one spoke as the professor faced the class.
He looked at the 46 faces before him, and then asked, “How many completed all five questions?” 47 a hand was raised.
“How many answered four?” Still no hands.
“Three? Two?” The students moved restlessly （不安地,慌张地）in their seats.
“One, then? Certainly somebody finished 48 .”But the class remained silent.
The professor put down the papers. “That is exactly what I 49 ,” he said. “I just want to impress upon you that, 50 you have completed four years of engineering, there are still many things about the 51 you don’t know. These questions you couldn’t answer are relatively(相对地,相当地) 52 in everyday practice. ” Then smiling, he added, “You will all 53 this course, but remember — even though you are now college graduates, your education has just 54 .”
The years have 55 the name of this professor, but not the lesson he taught.

We arrived in Spain for the first time a few weeks ago. I decided to 31 a car because we had sold the one we had in England before 32 home. Yesterday the sales office rang us to say the car was 33 . I had tried out a model like it before, but as I was not yet 34 driving in this city, my wife did not want me to collect it 35 so we went together to 36 it. We paid for the car and 37 the papers. They told us that there was 38 petrol（汽油）to take us to a garage, where we could fill up. The 39 garage to the office was about 100 yards away and we got there 40 .But when I turned into the main road I suddenly saw a lot of cars racing 41 me. I got out of 42 as fast as I could by backing into the garage 43 and the man behind 44 me.
"It’s such a problem to 45 to drive on the right side, isn’t it?" my wife said. "Yes, if only I had had a few lessons for 46 ," I replied. "You had better go 47 on the way home," my wife said. "You" d be sorry if you had 48 on the first day, wouldn" t you?" While we were talking, the man behind got out of his car and said in good English," Would you mind telling me 49 you are thinking of leaving? 50 are you going to sit in your car all day?"
