     Bobby Moresco grew up in New York's Hell's Kitchen, a tough working-class neighborhood on
Manhattan's West Side. But Hell's Kitchen lies right next door to Broadway, and the bright lights
attracted Bobby from the time he was a teen. Being stage-struck was hardly what a street kid could
admit to his partners. Fearing their ridicule, he told no one, not even his girlfriend, when he started taking
acting lessons at age 17. If you were a kid from the neighborhood, you became a cop, construction
worker, longshoreman or criminal. Not an actor.
      Moresco struggled to make that long walk a few blocks east. He studied acting, turned out for all the
cattle calls-and during the decade of the 1970s made a total of $2,000. "I wasn't a good actor, but I had
a driving need to do something different with my life," he says.
He moved to Hollywood, where he drove a cab and worked as a bartender(酒吧服务员). "My father
said, 'Stop this craziness and get a job; you have a wife and daughter.' "But Moresco kept working at his
chosen craft.
      Then in 1983 his younger brother Thomas was murdered in a mob-linked killing. Moresco moved
back to his old neighborhood and started writing as a way to explore the pain and the patrimony of
Hell's Kitchen. Half-Deserted Streets, based on his brother's killing, opened at a small Off-Broadway
theater in 1988. A Hollywood producer saw it and asked him to work on a screenplay.
       His reputation grew, and he got enough assignments to move back to Hollywood. By 2003, he was
again out of work and out of cash when he got a call from Paul Haggis, a director who had befriended him. Haggis wanted help writing a film about the country after September 11. The two worked on the writing, but every studio in town turned it down. They kept pitching it. Studio executives, however, thought no one wanted to see a severe, honest vision of race and fear and lives in collision in modern America.
     Moresco believed so strongly in the script that he borrowed money, sold his house. He and Haggis
kept pushing. At last the writers found an independent film producer who would take a chance, but the
upfront money was too little, Moresco delayed his salary.
     Crash slipped into the theaters in May 2005, and quietly became both a hit and a critical success. It
was nominated for six Academy Awards and won three-Best Picture, Best Film Editing and Best Writing (Original Screenplay) by Paul Haggis and the kid from Hell's Kitchen.
      At age 54, Bobby Moresco became an overnight success. "If you have something you want to do in
life, don't think about the problems," he says, "think about other ways to get it done."
1. Rearrange the following statements in terms of time order:
a. His work Half-Deserted Streets drew attention as it opened at a small Off-Broadway theater
b. Unexpectedly Crash became both a hit and a huge success.
c. He moved to Hollywood to be a taxi driver and a waiter.
d. He started learn acting in spite of hardness with the belief of doing something different.
e. His younger brother Thomas was killed in conflict among bullies.
A. d; c; e; a; b      
B. d; e; c; b; a    
C. c; d; e; a; b    
D. c; e; d; b; a  
2. Why Bobby Moresco did not tell anyone that he started taking lessons at age 17?
A. He wanted to give his girlfriend a surprise.    
B. His girlfriend did not allow him to do this.
C. He was afraid of being laughed at.
D. He had no talent for acting.
3. Which of the following sentences is NOT true?
A. His father did not support his work as a bartender.
B. Before he became an overnight success, his life experienced ups and downs.
C. His brother's death inspired his writing Half-Deserted Streets.
D. Moresco grew up in New York's Hell's Kitchen which is a few blocks east of Broadway.
4. The Studio executives turned the script Crash down because ______________.
A. they thought the script would not be popular.
B. the script was not well written.
C. they had no money to make the film based on the script.
D. they thought Moresco was not famous.
5. What's the best title of the article?
A. The Road to Success
B. Try It a Different Way
C. A Talented man-Moresco
D. Moresco's Perseverance
6. Which of the following can best describe Bobby Moresco?

     During my high school years, the most important thing was what I was wearing to the Friday night
dance and who I was taking.Although college was talked about, it was the least of my worries.
     When I was graduating eighth grade and starting high school, my older brother was graduating twelfth
grade and going onto college.For my graduation, he gave me a card in which he wrote, "Enjoy your four
years...They go by fast." I remember not believing him then, but looking back...He was right.Those four
years shaped who I was as a person, pushed me to my limit and encouraged me to become an adult.
     However, I was so completely absorbed in my junior and senior years of high school, that when
someone spoke of college I brushed it off.I wasn't ready to leave my comfort zone of having all of my
closest friends together and knowing what every single day was going to be like.Studying was something
I did only AFTER I nailed my halftime dance performance.I knew my parents wanted me to go to college, so I told them I would go to community college (社区学院) and I didn't worry about my SAT (美国大
学入学考试) scores.
     When my senior year passed and everyone graduated and went off to their own colleges, I started to
wish I had done the same.My friends were living away, meeting new people, and discovering new places, while I was living at home and driving to and from class every day.It seemed exactly like high school.I
hated it!I thought college was supposed to be different!Why didn't I take more time to research colleges
and do the same?I ended up loving college and wishing I had four years to enjoy the campus (大学校园) atmosphere instead of two.
      My advice to anyone thinking about attending college is to think about it very seriously and look into
all of your choices well ahead of time.Now I have graduated and I am working fulltime and I would do
anything to go back to my high school days for a second chance!

1. Why didn't the author worry about his SAT scores?

A. He wanted to go to community college.
B. He had been admitted for his gift in dance.
C. He was well prepared for the exam.
D. He believed his brother would help him.

2. When in high school, the author________.

A. drove to and from class every day
B. buried himself in his study all the time
C. enjoyed talking about future college life
D. lived in the school except on holidays

B. He advised the author to value the years.
C. He encouraged the author to leave his comfort zone.

     We all remember bosses we've had over the years. But some bosses, for one reason or another,
stand out above the rest. Christy Bulkeley was one of those bosses.
     Christy was the young publisher at the small Upstate New York newspaper where I worked 35
years ago, one of the first female publishers in the USA.I was green as a reporter.
     A feminist of the first order, she believed women were equal to men, that newspapers could be run
by women. More than a few old newspapermen didn't believe what Christy believed, and I'll make it
clear that we didn't always get along. The maddest I ever saw her was when I wrote a profile of Helen
Hayes, referring to the famous actress as Miss Hayes. She went angry. The title "Miss" was forbidden at
the newspaper. Christy was a Ms and would remain one, even after marrying.
     She stood out in a crowd, which perhaps was what made her seem awkward in social settings. She
had short red hair, smoked cigarettes that swung from her very long fingers, and dressed in a style all

     Throughout the Depression (经济萧条) years,my brothers,sisters and I often heard our granny say,
"One of these days,my ship is coming in."Of course Granny's ship was just a dream-her escape from the
reality of being poor most of her life.But to us it was very real.
     Our family got by with the barest (最少) of necessities.There rarely was enough left over for special
desires.So if we wished for other things,we told Granny about them,and she would plan for them to be
aboard her ship.
      At times we kids worried greatly as to how the ship was going to arrive at Granny's house in the
deep pine woods of East Texas,miles from any waterway.One day when Granny was sitting with us on
her front porch,we asked her how she expected the ship to come.Shifting in her rocking chair,she
expected the ship to come.Shifting in her rocking chair,she pointed to the beautiful clouds floating in the
bright blue sky.
      "Why,children," she explained,"Granny's ship has big beautiful sails.Some day it will rise up on clouds
like those,and come floating right up to the front door."
     As we grew older,our childish wishes for BB guns,baby dolls and mohair sweaters were replaced by
dreams of an education,a job or a lovely wedding.We told Granny of those goals and she put each one
aboard her ship.
     Granny has been gone a long time now,but I still remember how we sat with her on the porch scanning
the skies.She never told us the name of her ship,but I think perhaps it was "Hope",for Granny told us to
have patience,to reach beyond our limitation,and many of our dreams and wishes did come true.
      Even now,sometimes,when the skies are brilliantly blue,with soft puffy clouds sailing along with the
breeze (微风),I look up-to see Granny's ship.Its sails are full and proud.It is a beautiful ship,carrying a
wonderful cargo of many packages of many sizes-all marked "From Granny.With Love".
