     Well, somebody had to be the richest man on earth, but why did it have to be him? William Henry Gates
Bill, now just called "Bill Gates" or "Bill G". William Henry Gates was born in Seattle. In 1973, Gates entered
Harvard University as a freshman (新生). But his heart was not in his studies. After locating (定位) the
school"s computer centre, he lost himself in the world of computers once again. Gates would spend many
long nights in front of the school"s computer and the next days sleeping in class. So in his junior year, Gates
left Harvard to devote his energies to designing programs for personal computers, which had just entered the
marketplace. In his junior year, Gates left Harvard to devote his energies to Microsoft, a company he had
begun in 1975 with his childhood friend Paul Allen.
     In 1980, the International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) chose Microsoft to develop the operating
system for its first personal computer, the PC. An operating system is a special type of program that contains
instructions for the operation of the computer. Gates devised the Microsoft Disk Operating System (MS-DOS)
for the IBM. Millions of copies of MS-DOS were sold for use in the IBM and IBM-compatible (兼容的) PC"s.
     Microsoft continued to grow under Gates" guidance. In 1985, the company introduced the first of a series
of PC programs called windows. These programs enable users to perform multiple (多样的) tasks through
"windows" on the computer screen and to issue (发布) commands by pointing at on screen symbols rather
than by typing instructions. Microsoft has sold milljons of copies of windows. In 1998, the United States
Justice Department, along with 20 state attorneys (律师; 代理人) general, filed an antitrust (反垄断的) lawsuit
against Microsoft. The lawsuit (案件) charged that Microsoft used unfair practices to destroy its competitors.

     Rae Armantrout, who has been a poetry professor at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) for
two decades, has won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book, "Versed".
     "I"m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings, as compared to even
the National Book Critics Award, which I was also surprised and delighted to win," said Armantrout.
     "For a long time, my writing has been just below the media radar, and to have this kind of attention,
suddenly, with my 10th book, is really surprising."
     Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelor"s degree at UC Berkeley, where she studied with
noted poet Denise Levertov, and her master"s in creative writing from San Francisco State University. She
is a founding member of Language Poets, a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used
and raises questions to make the reader think.
     In March, she won the National Book Critics Award for "Versed."
     "This book has gotten more attention," Armantrout said, "but I don"t feel as if it"s better."
     The first half of "Versed" focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United States as it fought the war
against Iraq. The second half looks at the dark forces casting a shadow over her own life after Armantrout
was diagnosed with cancer in 2006.
     Armantrout was shocked to learn she had won the Pulitzer but many of her colleagues were not. "Rae
Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry," said Seth Lerer, head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD.
     "Versed", published by the Wesleyan University Press, did appear in a larger printing than her earlier
works, which is about 2,700 copies. The new edition is scheduled to appear in May.

Winston Churchill was born into a famous family. His father was a successful politician. However, as a boy, Churchill was considered a slow learner in school. Later he entered the Army and saw action in various countries. In October 1900, Churchill began his political career. For the next sixty years Churchill"s work as a great politician was both brighter and more difficult than his father had been. In 1939, Germany attacked Poland. Churchill prepared to fight. In 1940 he became the Prime Minster of England. France fell. The Germans fought their way through Western Europe. It looked as if Britain was about to lose the war. Was it not possible to ask for peace, and listen to Hitler? Churchill spoke, "I have nothing to offer but blood, hard work, tears and sweat (汗)...You ask what is our policy (政策)? I will tell you, it is to fight, by sea, by land and air, with all our force and with all the strength that God can give us. You ask what is our aim? I can answer in one word: victory." The Germans began moving their armies to the French coast and prepared to go to war with the British. The British had not enough guns to go round. Churchill gave the answer:"We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the coasts, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the field and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills, we shall never give up." By his courage and hard work Churchill heartened his people and other nations fighting together against Hitler. Victory finally came when the Germans lost World War Ⅱ.

When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, "Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn"t work out, you"ll have something to rely on." Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, "the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course," she recalls. The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom, "I don"t know how to use a computer," she admits. Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病): All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. "I felt there was a need for a book like this," she says. "I didn"t want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we"re self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease." But she hasn"t always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of Iife-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up-again-and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet. Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. "Everybody on earth can ask, "why me?" about something or other," she insists. "It doesn"t do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I"ve come to realize the importance of that as I"ve grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be."
1. Why did Mary feel regretful?
A. She didn"t achieve her ambition. B. She didn"t take care of her mother. C. She didn"t complete her high school. D. She didn"t follow her mother"s advice.
2. We can know that before 1995 Mary _____.
A. had two books published B. received many career awards C. knew how to use a computer D. supported the JDRF by writing
3. Mary"s second book Growing Up Again is mainly about her _____.
A. living with diabetes B. successful show business C. service for an organization D. remembrance of her mother
4. When Mary received the life-changing news, she _____.
A. lost control of herself B. began a balanced diet C. tried to get a treatment D. behaved in an adult way
5. What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. Mary feels pity for herself. B. Mary has recovered from her disease. C. Mary wants to help others as much as possible. D. Mary determines to go back to the dance floor.
