I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career(职业)．
I wasn't an excellent student because I didn't do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn't have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn't the type to have a career.
I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn't too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she'd give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn't often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early morning with the children.
One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification(资格证书)if I wanted to work with children. I didn't think I would be accepted because I didn't take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a parttime course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.
Now I've got a fulltime job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren't top of the class at school.

When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s soandso's fault.”or “I know I'm late, but it's not my fault; the car broke down.”It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation.This is the winner's key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or，you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don't rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don't have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So，stop focusing on “whose fault it is.”Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stone for success.
1.According to the passage, winners __________.
A．meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
B．have responsible and able colleagues
C．blame themselves rather than others
D．deal with problems rather than blame others
2.The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________.
A．improve B．avoid C．accept D．consider
3.When your colleague brings about a problem, you should __________.
A．blame him for his lack of responsibility
B．tell him to find the cause of the problem
C．find a better way to handle the problem
D．ask a more able colleague for help
4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A．A Winner's Opportunity. B．A Winner's Problem.
C．A Winner's Secret. D．A Winner's Achievement.

Accidents and illness are unhappy things to talk about, but no one can expect to live a lifetime without having some kind of accident or becoming ill. Some accidents and illnesses are serious and may result in long periods of invalidism.
The newspapers contain spectacular accounts of accidents in the street and highways and public places, but nearly as many accidents occur around the home. Somebody trips on a rug. Somebody falls off a stepladder. Somebody is careless in cooking dinner, and is burned. Accidents incurred in the playing of sports and swimming also accounts for a large number of injuries, big and little. Despite constant campaigns to reduce the number of accidents, there are still approximately 100,000 accidental deaths and nearly 9,000,000 nonfatal injuries in the United States each year.
It has been estimated that around 3,000,000 people are constantly ill in the United States throughout the year and that over half the illness is caused by respiratory diseases, chiefly colds and influenza.
The pain and suffering caused by accidents and illness tell only half the story. Loss of time from school and work and medical and hospital expenses often make the pain seem worse. Money spent in this country for doctors, services, hospitalization, nursing care, drugs, medicines, Xrays, and special treatments, amounts to a huge annual sum. Added to this expense is another much larger amount that is lost to wage earners throughout the nation by reason of their loss of wages or income while sick or otherwise disabled.
Accident and health insurance is a form of insurance devised to protect against these economic losses. It protects the earning of wage earners and finishes financial aid to the family of the breadwinner by the payment of his doctor and hospital bills. Today, business and professional men, farmers, industrial workers, clerks and those engaged in various occupations, whose earning power is shut off for a week, a month, or sometimes years, because of accidents or illness can insure themselves against this financial loss by accident and health insurance.
Protection is available to all types of workers and the cost(called the premium)ranges from a few cents a day for small or limited policies to a month for policies paying larger amounts(called indemnities). Policy is another name for an insurance contract(合同). Most accident and health policies are cancelable policies—that is, they are sold for a definite term such as a week, a month, or a year, similar to contracts of fire insurance and automobile liability insurance. There are, however, policies which cannot be canceled or terminated(终止)by the insurance company until the policyholder reaches an age at which he usually has no further earning power—most often at sixty or sixtyfive years. These noncancelable policies cost more than the cancelable policies.
1.What is the passage mainly concerned about?
A．Everyone will have some sort of illness or accident.
B．Accident and health insurance is available to everyone.
C．Cancelable insurance policies are better than noncancelable one.
D．Insurance is a good protection against accidents and illness.
2.Every year in the United States there are________.
A．more people die in accidents than of illness
B．more people who are ill than those injured in accidents
C．more outdoor accidents than indoor accidents
D．more people injured in accidents than those who are constantly ill
3.The heaviest pain and suffering caused by accidents and illness are________.
A．colds and influenza B．financial losses
C．loss of time D．invalidism
4.Accident and health insurance will protect people by________.
A．covering their medical expenditure
B．paying their wages
C．restoring their earning power
D．providing policyholders with the money they need to survive

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again,1. Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning this fact. Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously.2, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunities to become strong. The position is exactly the same as that of two people, one of whom exercise his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day.
If a friend complains that his arms are weak,3. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much his own fault as if it was his arms or legs that were weak. Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever; but all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same means—practice.
Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can?4? Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember dates, time and prices, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
5, learn from the poor; practice remembering.
A．So if you want a good memory
B．When someone else says that his memory is poor
C．When someone else says that he is poor in health
D．Why is this
E. What is this
F. we know that it is his own fault
G. they slowly become strong again
