While Andrew was getting ready for work one Friday morning, he announced to his wife that he had finally decided to ask his boss for a salary raise. All day Andrew felt nervous and anxious as he thought about the upcoming showdown. What if Mr Larchmont refused to grant his request? Andrew had worked so hard in the last 18 months and landed some great accounts for his company. Of course, he deserved a wage increase.
The thought of walking into Larchmont’s office left Andrew weak in the knees. Late in the afternoon he was finally courageous enough to approach his superior. To his delight and surprise, the ever-frugal(一向节俭的)Harvey Larchmont agreed to give Andrew a raise!
Andrew arrived home that evening—despite breaking all city and state speed limits—to a beautiful table set with their best china, and candles lit. His wife, Tina, had prepared a delicate meal including his favorite dishes. Immediately he figured someone from the office had tipped her off!
Next to his plate Andrew found a beautiful lettered note. It was from his wife. It read: “Congratulations, my love! I knew you’d get the raise! I prepared this dinner to show just how much I love you. I am so proud of your accomplishments!” He read it and stopped to reflect on how sensitive and caring Tina was.
After dinner, Andrew was on his way to the kitchen to get dessert when he observed that a second card had slipped out of Tina’s pocket onto the floor. He bent forward to pick it up. It read: “Don’t worry about not getting the raise! You do deserve one! You are a wonderful provider and I prepared this dinner to show you just how much I love you even though you did not get the increase.”
Suddenly tears swelled in Andrew’s eyes. Total acceptance! Tina’s support for him was not conditional upon his success at work.
The fear of rejection is often softened and we can undergo almost any setback or rejection when we know someone loves us regardless of our success or failure.
1.Which of the following statements about the story is FALSE?
A. Andrew was afraid that his request would lead to disaster.
B. Andrew had worked very hard and done his part for the company.
C. Andrew’s boss agreed to his request.
D. One of Andrew’s colleagues had told his wife the good news.
2.Why did Tina prepare a grand dinner for Andrew that day?
A. She was confident of his getting a pay raise.
B. She believed that her husband was the best in his company.
C. She meant to show her support to her husband.
D. She wanted to express her gratitude for his devotion to the family.
3. We can conclude from the text that ______.
A. we should never be afraid to ask for what is due to us
B. work hard and you will be rewarded
C. many fears turn out to be unfounded
D. unconditional love brings courage and strength

Andrew Carnegie was a 19th century steel tycoon (大亨) who became one of the 20th century’s most famous philanthropists (慈善家). His life story is one of the most famous rags-to-riches accounts in United States’ history.
Carnegie was born in Dunfermline, Scotland, on November 25, 1835. The son of a weaver, he came with his family to the United States in 1848 and settled in Allegheny, Pennsylvania. At age thirteen, Carnegie went to work as a bobbin (线轴) boy in a cotton factory. He then moved rapidly through a succession of jobs with Western Union and the Pennsylvania Railroad. In 1865, he resigned to establish his own factory and eventually organized the Carnegie Steel Company, which started the steel industry in Pittsburgh. At age sixty-five, he sold the company to J. P. Morgan for $480 million and devoted the rest of his life to his philanthropic activities and writing, including his autobiography.
Many people of wealth have contributed to charity, but Carnegie was perhaps the first to state publicly that the rich have a moral responsibility to give away their fortunes. In 1889 he wrote The Gospel (福音) of Wealth, in which he asserted that all personal wealth beyond what was required to supply the needs of one’s family should be regarded as a trust fund to be administered for the benefit of the community.
Carnegie set about giving away his fortune through innumerable personal gifts and through the establishment of various trusts. In his thirties, Carnegie had already begun to give away some of his fast-accumulating funds. His first large gifts were made to his native town. Later he created seven philanthropic and educational organizations in the United States, including Carnegie Corporation of New York, and several more in Europe.
One of Carnegie’s lifelong interests was the establishment of free public libraries to make available to everyone as a means of self-education. There were only a few public libraries in the world, in 1881, when Carnegie began to promote his idea. He and the Corporation altogether spent over $56 million to build 2,509 libraries throughout the English-speaking world.
After this program was ended in 1917, the Corporation continued for about forty years an interest in the improvement of library services. Other major programs in the Corporation’s early history included adult education and education in the fine arts.
During his lifetime, Carnegie gave away over $350 million. He died in Lenox, Massachusetts, on August 11, 1919.
1.Carnegie became wealthy by ________.
A. his investment in weaving industry
B. starting his steel business from nothing
C. his father’s financial support
D. his philanthropic activities
2.What is the correct order of events related to Carnegie?
a. He sold his company. b. He organized the Carnegie Steel Company
c. He worked in a cotton mill. d. He came to the United States
e. He wrote The Gospel of Wealth
A. c, d, e, b, a B. d, c, b, e, a
C. c, b, a, d, e D. d, b, a, e, c
3.Carnegie established public libraries in order to ________.
A. become famous
B. realize his dream
C. improve library services
D. help people educate themselves

A PRANK (恶作剧) is naughty behavior that is at most scolded if it gets too much. This is three Chinese students studying in California in the US described what they had done.
Zhai Yunyao, Yang Yuhan and Zhang Xinlei, all 19, called it a “prank” when they took their classmate Liu Yiran to a park where “Liu was … beaten, spat (吐痰) on, with cigarettes and forced to eat her own hair during a five-hour attack”, the Associated Press.
However, their “prank” in March 2015 was a crime in the US. The punishment was years in prison for kidnapping and assault (攻击). Zhai was to 13 years in prison, Yang to 10 years and Zhang to six years on Feb 17. They will be sent back to China serving their sentences, reported The Los Angeles Times.
The bullying (欺凌) case has caused quite a discussion in China where school bullying is not 42 but is seldom considered a crime. According to a survey done by China Youth Daily in July last year, 73.3 percent of the 1,002 said they had experienced or seen bullying cases at school.
However, offenders (冒犯者) receive proper punishment. In most of the cases, offenders only get criticism from schools. Offenders under 14 have no criminal . Those aged between 14 and 16 usually get a light punishment only when they serious crimes like murder and rape (强奸), according to China’s laws.
“The articles about protecting minors (未成年人) have started to get punishing school bullies,” commented an article in Bandao Metropolis Daily. “Some bullies even use the laws as a shield (挡箭牌) for their violent .”
In , the US is quite tough on bullying.
A(n) of 46 of the 50 US states now have their own anti-bullying laws, according to the US Department of Education. Bullying, according to those anti-bullying laws, not only direct physical contact like hitting, but also verbal assaults like name-calling.
Also, judges in the US have the right to minor offenders as adults if the cases are serious or if they have criminal records.
China could learn from the US, its legal system to stop bullying, some people have suggested. Huang Zhiyuan, a procurator (检察官) at the Henan People’s Procuratorate, advocated lowering the criminal age in Procuratorate Daily. Li Fangchao of China Daily advised China to make a anti-bullying law.
A more profound (深刻的) message the case showed to us is that “the common tolerant toward bullying should be changed”, commented Jiaxing Daily. “When teenagers do something wrong, we should tolerate and help them when necessary. But all of these have a limit.”

In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel.In a few hours he would be flying to France to 1a different life.It was a transitional(过渡的) time in Daniel’s life.I wanted to 2him some words of significance.But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the3time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten.He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked 4the steps of the bus and disappeared inside.The bus drove away and I said nothing.A decade later, a similar 5played itself out.I drove him to college.As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him 6and confidence as he started this new stage of life.Again, words 7me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 8opportunities.How many times have I let such moments 9? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have 10to me.Or what he might want to face in the years 11.Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.

My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly.“Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say.He hugged me.For a moment, the world 16, and there were just Daniel and me.He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying.All I was 17of was the stubble(短须) on his chin as his face pressed 18mine.What I had said to Daniel was 19.It was nothing.And yet, it was 20.
