of London theatres. He looked thin and hungry. He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing

Born in Leningrad, six months before the death of Stalin, the young Putin

first son to follow his father into the White House since John Quiney Adams followed John Adams in the early
19th century.
Bush was born on July 6, 1946, in New Haven, Connecticut, the first child of George Herbert Walker Bush
and Barbara Pierce Bush. Although George Herbert Walker Bush began his career in the oil industry, he finally
served as a congressman (国会议员), and vice president and president of the United States.
At the age of two, Bush moved with his parents from Connecticut to Odessa, Texas, where his father took
up the oil business. After a year in Texas, the family moved to California for business reasons. A year later, the
family returned to Texas and settled in Midland, where Bush lived from 1950 to 1959.
In 1959, again for business reasons, the family moved to Houston, Texas. In 1961 Bush left Texas and
went to Andover, Massachusetts, to attend Phillips Academy, a boarding school (寄宿学校) that his father had
also attended.
At Phillips, Bush played basketball, baseball, and football. He was best known for being head cheerleader.
In 1964 he enrolled at Yale University in Connecticut; his father and grandfather had also attended Yale. At
Yale, Bush was considered an average student, but he was popular with his classmates.
Bush graduated from Yale with a bachelor"s degree in history in 1968. Then he joined the Air National
Guard and remained in the Guard until 1973. After earning his MBA from Harvard in 1975, Bush returned to
Midland. Like his father, he first entered the oil industry as a"landsman (新手)". However, Bush"s oil companies never enjoyed great success. He took more interest in politics. He helped his father to become president and in
1994 he himself was elected governor of Texas.
In the summer of 1999, Bush began to run for the president of the USA and on January 20, 2001, George
W. Bush, hand raised, took the oath(宣誓)of office to become the 43rd president of the US. | | 1. What does the writer intend to tell us in the first paragraph? | A. George W. Bush is the first son in American history to follow his father into the White House.

female fans. Due to his popularity, it has changed the initial plan of Pepsi which does not intend to offer
Korean artistes to be Pepsi"s ambassadors. Now they have changed their mind to offer a high price to invite

October concert in Hong Kong, but Rain"s Hong Kong manager Ms Chan Ka Ying responded,"At this moment,

intention to switch from Jay to Rain to be its ambassador, in order to capture Korea, Japan, and China market
