     People always think about "the problem of youth". If there is one-which I take leave to doubt-it is
older people who create it, not the young themselves.Let us get down to fundamentals and agree that
the young are after all human beings-people just like their elders.There is only one difference between
an old man and a young one:the young man has a beautiful future before him while the old man a
splendid future behind him and maybe that is where the rub is.
     When I was a teenager, I felt that I was just young and unknown-that I was a new boy in a huge
school, and I would have been very pleased to be regarded as something so interesting as a problem.
For one thing, being a problem gives you a certain identify, and that is one of the things the young are
busily engaged in seeking.
      I find young people exciting.They have an air of freedom, and they have not a dull promise to mean
ambitions or love of comfort.They are not anxious social climbers, and they have no devotion to
important things.All this seems to me to link them with life, and the origins of things.It"s as if they were in
some sense of cosmic beings in violent and lovely contrast with us suburban (乡村的) creatures.All that
is in my mind when I meet a young person.He may be too proud, illmannered, selfconfident or selfsatisfied, but I do not turn for protection to boring clich?s about respect for elders as if age were a reason for
respect.I accept that we are equals, and I will argue with them, as an equal, if I think he is wrong.

1. "The problem of youth" in Paragraph 1 means the problem________.

A. caused by young people
B. needed to be solved by young people
C. young people meet
D. created by the old for the young

2. The underlined word "rub" is closest in meaning to________.

A. fact
B. age
C. future
D. difficulty

3. One of the things the young are engaged in is that they want to________.

A. climb up the social ladder
B. have freedom
C. be known
D. make troubles

4. By saying "anxious social climbers", the writer refers to________.

A. some mean adults
B. ambitious young people
C. capable political leaders
D. people who pursue comfort

答案

1-4: ADCA

friend to my husband.I have tried to make marriage vows (誓言) mean what they say.I am a good friend
to my friends, and they to me.Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.
     So here"s what I want to tell you today:Get a life.A real life, not a desire of the next promotion (提升),
the bigger paycheck, the larger house.
     Get a life in which you are not alone.Find people you love, and who love you.And remember that love
is not leisure (休闲), it is work.Pick up the phone.Send an email.Write a letter.And realize that life is the

changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all.And what I
learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.
      I learned to love the journey, not the destination.I learned to look at all the good in the world and try
to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally.And I tried to do that, in part, by
telling others what I had learned.
      By telling them this:Read in the backyard with the sun on your face.Learn to be happy.And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion (激情) as it ought to be lived.

阅读理解    When you were looking for a reliable, honest auto mechanic, how did you find him?Before you went
into that restaurant you recently tried, how did you know that it served great food?If you are like most
people on the planet, you want to lower your risk of a big ugly surprise so you asked people you trust to
refer to a business they trust.Marketers call this friendtofriend recognition of a business "wordofmouth"
advertising.
     When you do a great job for your customer or a bad job, people are going to talk about your

ones.Understand this:Customers believe their own experience.You can"t make them believe that your
company is wonderful when they felt they were treated badly.

customers in a way that no advertising and no promotional coupon (优惠券) ever could.
     The good news is that because there are so many different businesses chasing after your customers"
money, people want to know whom they can trust.So people are going to be talking about you.Create a
free sales force for your business-an army of delightedcustomers who tell everyone that they know how
good your company is to do business with.That"s a great antidote (解毒剂) to defectionitis.
