During his college years, Sherman Rogers spent a summer in logging(伐木) camp. When the boss had to leave for 41 days, he put Rogers in charge(掌管).
“What shall I do if the men 42 to follow my orders?” Rogers asked. He thought of Tony, a worker who complained all day, gave the other men a 43 time.
“Fire（解雇） them,” the boss said. Then, as if reading Rogers’ mind, he added, “I suppose you are going to fire Tony if you get the 44 . I’d feel badly about that. I have been logging for 40 years. Tony is one of the best workers I’ve ever had. I know he hates everybody and 45 . But he comes in first and leaves last. There has not been an 46 for eight years on the hill where he works.”
The next day, Rogers went to Tony, “Tony, do you know I’m in charge here today?” Tony said yes. “I was going to fire you the first time we quarreled, 47 I want you to know I’m not,” he told Tony, adding 48 the boss had said.
When he finished, Tony dropped the things in his hand and tears went down his 49 .
“Why didn’t he tell me that eight years 50 ?”
That day Tony worked 51 than ever before – and he smiled!
Rogers went back to 52 after that summer. Twelve years later he met Tony again who was now boss for one of the largest logging companies in the West. Rogers asked him how he came to California and happened to be so 53 .
Tony replied, “Were it not for the one minute you talk to me back that day, I would kill somebody some day. One minute 54 my whole life.”
Have you got one minute to thank someone? One minute to appreciate(欣赏) her or him? One minute. It can make a 55 for a lifetime.

Have successful
people ever felt sad? Do they have any “secrets
”
to success? The answers to these questions can be found in US president Barack
Obama’s “back to school” speech. Here is an excerpt(摘录) from his speech.
I know that sometimes, you hope that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through pop music or basketball or being a TV star, when chances come, you’re not going to be any of those things.
But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won’t love every subject you study. Not all the homework will seem rather important to your life ,but you should try your best. And you may not succeed at everything the first time you try.
That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most failures (the opposite of success). JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was turned down 12 times before it finally came out. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots (投篮) during his career. But he once said, “I have failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
These people succeeded because they understand that you can’t let your failures beat(打败) you—you have to let them teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.
No one’s born being good at things. You become good at things through hard work.
Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day. Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a sign of strength. It shows you have the courage to tell when you don’t know something, and to learn something new.
And even when you’re struggling(奋斗), even when you’re discouraged (泄气), and you feel other people have given up on you.but you should remember, don’t ever give up on yourself. Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.
1.Some of the most successful people in the world have are the ones who’ve had the______ failures.
A. fewest B. most C. saddest D. valuable
2.What can be found in US president Barack Obama’s “back to school” speech ?
A. secrets to success.
B. being successful is easy.
C. your failures beat you.

A. To compare these two famous persons.
B. To explain that the more failures he has, the more successful he is.
C. If you want to be successful, you should fail first.
D. To show that failure is the mother of success.
4.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. No one can be successful without working hard.
B. Failure can be good if you treat it in a right way.
C. Those who believe in themselves shouldn’t ask others for help.
D. One should try his best to make his dream come true.
5.Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined sentence?
A. One shouldn’t ask questions because it is a sign of strength.
B. One should believe in himself though he will face much difficulty.
C. One doesn’t have to work hard when he has failed several times.

Beethoven, a famous musician in the world, was born in Germany in 1770. In his childhood Beethoven didn’t have a happy life. His father was a singer. When he was only four, his father began to make him practice hour after hour on different musical instruments. If he did not put his heart into it, his father would beat him or make it hard on him.
Beethoven loved music an he learned so fast that he was able to go around to give concerts, when he was only a boy of eleven. At the age of seventeen, he won high praise from Mozart, the great musician at that time.
Beethoven was often poor an ill during his life. After one illness, he suddenly found himself deaf. At that time he was only thirty-one. It was a blow (打击) to him indeed.
