Tom was a clever boy, but his parents were poor, so he had to work in his spare time and during his holidays to pay for his education. In spite of this, he managed to get to the university, but it was so expensive to study there that during the holiday he found it necessary to get two jobs at the same time so as to make enough money to pay for his studies.
One summer he managed to get a job in a butcher’s shop(肉店)during the day-time, and another in a hospital at night. In the shop, he learnt to cut meat quite nicely, so the butcher often left him to do all the serving while he went to the back room to do the accounts(账目). In the hospital, on the other hand, he was, of course, allowed to do the simplest jobs, like helping to lift people and to carry them from one part of the hospital to another. Both at the butcher’s shop and at the hospital, Tom had to wear white clothes.
One evening at the hospital, Tom had to carry a woman from her bed to the place where she was to have an operation. The woman was already feeling frightened at the thought of the operation before he came to get her, but when she saw Tom, that finished her.
“No! No!” she cried.“Not my butcher! I won’t be operated on!” and fainted away(昏厥).
1. Tom made enough money by ________.
A. doing two jobs
B. working in a butcher’s shop
C. cutting meat well
D. studying in the university
2. Tom was a student, but at the same time he was__________.
A. a butcher and a doctor B. a manager and a doctor
C. an assistant D. a manager
3. The woman patient recognized Tom because ____________.
A. he was wearing white clothes
B. he was going to operate on her
C. he was now working in the hospital
D. he had sold meat to her

A. she felt better and better
B. took all her strength and courage away
C. broke her heart

Steve Jobs knew from an early age that he was adopted (收养). “My parents were very open with me about that,” he recalled. He had a clear memory of sitting in the yard of his house, when he was six or seven years old, telling the girl who lived across the street. “Does that mean your real parents didn’t want you?” the girl asked. “My whole world was falling apart,” according to Jobs. “I remember running into the house, crying. And my parents said, ‘No, you have to understand.’ They were very serious and looked me straight in the eyes. They said, ‘We specially picked you out.’ Both of my parents said that and repeated it slowly for me. And they stressed every word in that sentence.”
Abandoned (被抛弃). Chosen. Special. These words became part of who Jobs was and how he thought of himself. His closest friends think that the knowledge that he was given up at birth left some scars (伤疤). “He wants to control everything because of his personality and the fact that he was abandoned at birth,” said one longtime colleague (同事), Del Yocam.“He wants to control his environment, and he sees his product as a part of himself.” Greg Calhoun, who became close to Jobs right after college, saw another effect. “Steve talked to me a lot about being abandoned,” he said. “It caused great pains and made him independent. He was different from others because he was born into a different world.”
Later in life, Jobs became a father and abandoned one of his children. Andy Hertzfeld, who worked with Jobs at Apple in the early 1980s, is among the few who remained close to Jobs. “To understand Jobs, you have to know the reason why he can’t control himself and is sometimes cruel and harmful to others,” he said. “That goes back to being abandoned at birth. The real problem was the theme of abandonment in Steve’s life.”
1.Which of the following is true about Jobs’ childhood?
A. He left his parents at the age of six or seven.
B. He was shocked knowing he was abandoned.
C. He couldn’t remember how he was abandoned.
D. His parents chose him because his family was poor.
2.What did Del Yocam think of Jobs?
A. He hated to be born with scars.
B. He liked to get things under control.
C. He enjoyed good working environment.
D. He wanted to influence everyone.
3.What does the underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to?
A. The fact that Jobs was abandoned.
B. Jobs’ pain from the abandonment.
C. Jobs’ talk with Greg Calhoun.
D. The world where Jobs lived.
4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Jobs didn’t bring up any children.
B. Jobs had a lot of close friends.
C. Abandonment influenced Jobs.
D. Nobody likes Jobs’ character.
5.What is the best title for this text?
A. Steve Jobs B. Jobs’ Childhood
C. The Abandonment D. A Terrible Memory
