When I was 5, my father worked the night shift as a nurse in a hospital. He was always carrying his stethoscope (听诊器) so naturally, so I called him “Dr. Saldivar” while I pressed his stethoscope against his chest. But my father, as a humble man, was always correcting me: “I am not a doctor, son, but you can be one.” I grew up feeling like I had no limits because of moments like this, which has helped me take risks personally and professionally in spite of the hardships I had to endure.

Being born to Mexican immigrants meant that my parents had to work very hard to provide for my family and I had to learn to struggle through school paperwork on my own, because my parents' English was limited and they couldn't always be there motivating us through the process. If I wanted to succeed academically, my perseverance, and strength would be tested.

Perseverance, strength and good education are the gateway to success. And this is especially true when you look at the obstacles that Latinos have to overcome to succeed in public schools. For instance, while the national high school dropout (辍学) rate has decreased significantly, we still have the highest dropout rate in the country. We are more likely to live in poverty and attend racially separated schools. These issues create many other problems for Latinos.

To help relieve my family burden, I found my first job when I was 14 at a local hotel. Despite the long hours on my new job, I worked hard. Meanwhile, I continually stressed the importance of getting a respectable education and did everything possible to get one step closer to making my dream a reality.

Nearly a decade later, I became the first in my family to graduate from the University of Southern California. Knowing the social, economic, and political struggles that a community faces, I began to pursue journalism to give the disadvantaged minorities a voice.

1.What inspired the author when he was a child?

A. His curiosity about the stethoscope.　　 B. A nurse in his father's hospital.

C. The encouraging words from his father.　　 D. The hardships he suffered.

2.The example in the third paragraph given by the author suggests ________.

A. more Latinos are receiving higher education in America

B. racial separation has long been forbidden in America

C. American education system is better constructed

D. Latino immigrants are still facing many problems

3.The author chose to become a journalist, hoping to ________.

A. speak for the disadvantaged Latinos　　 B. enjoy a different life

C. show his success as a Latino　　 D. repay the sacrifice his parents made

4.What can we learn from the author’s experience?

A. Immigration is an approach to personal success.

B. American Dream is difficult for the Latinos to achieve.

C. Disadvantaged Latinos are still facing many challenges.

D. Good education is a way to successful life.

My wife Julie and I were out on the road that runs around where we live, when we saw an old worn-out dog stumbling (蹒跚) painfully up the road. We stopped, bent down, talked gently to the dog and patted it. I checked and there was a collar with a phone number. I called but no one answered.

The dog was painfully thin. So Julie ran home to get some of our dog’s food while I tried to encourage the dog. After Julie came back, we sat down on the sidewalk while our new friend made short work of the food. Eventually we got her home.

After trying for many times we got a response from the number. A lady came around with a bunch of flowers for us. She explained that Tara had been her father’s dog. She was very old and got lost that morning. So, Tara was safely returned home.

Here is the truth of the story:

Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving. She was trying to persuade me to come back, but I wasn’t hearing anything that made that sound likely.

I was about to turn and go when an old black dog walked between us and almost fell down. Suddenly we had something more important than our problem to worry about. There was a creature in need right before us and we had to work together to help it.

We did help it. And here I am writing the story in my own home, in my own family.

In the song “Love Is Not a Fight” Warren Barfield talks about marriage. At one point he sings, “And if we try to leave, may God send angels (天使) to guard the door.”

Sometimes angels come disguised (伪装) as dogs.

1.How was the dog when found?

A. Too weak to walk.                    B. Thin and worn out.

C. Unable to eat food.                    D. Homeless but gentle.

2. We can infer from Paragraph 2 that 　　　　　 .

A. the dog didn’t go with the writer

B. the writer had his own pet dog

C. Julie bought some food for the dog

D. the dog didn’t eat any of the food

3.The underlined part “our problem” in the passage refers to the fact that 　　　　　 .

A. the writer didn’t want to take Julie’s advice

B. an old black dog appeared in front of them

C. Julie disagreed with the writer’s travel on business

D. the couple had some trouble with their marriage

4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. An Angel Dog    B. A Helpful Couple    C. Saving the Dog        D. A Famous Song
