When I decided to apply for a summer job, I was a freshman. After several attempts(尝试), I got an interview with Dave Hensley, a manager in the games department at Cedar Point Amusement Park. I was a very shy and quiet boy, but I put aside my shy nature for the interview, and was as outgoing(外向的) as I knew how to be. Apparently(明显地)it worked. I was informed (通知) to go to the park the next day. However, when I arrived, Dave told me he was assigning (分派) me to be a guesser. That position required standing all alone, speaking to thousands of people over a microphone. I never dreamed Dave would assign me to that position.
Dave must have sensed my fear as he said, “Don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll do fine.” Then he took me to the Guessing Game location in an area of the park. Along the way, Dave talked to me, trying to improve my confidence. He told me to just relax and be myself, and then the microphone was put into my hand.
My mind was disorderly, but I knew I wanted to work at Cedar Point, and that desire meant I had to make it. After thirty minutes, Dave took the microphone and gave it to another guesser. He turned to me and said, “Well, at least you’re not afraid of the microphone!” Thanks to Dave’s trust and encouragement, I went on to become a very successful guesser. His support in helping me overcome that fear improved my life in more ways than Dave could ever imagine. In that same spirit, I successfully completed my Master’s degree in electrical engineering which I had once wanted to give up.
64. In order to get the job, the author _______.
A. had to have several interviews with Dave Hensley
B. often went to the amusement park at Cedar Point
C. let the manager know he was a very shy and quiet person
D. made the manager believe he was good at dealing with strangers
65. Right after the author heard that his position was a guesser, he was ____.
A. excited B. afraid C. happy D. regretful
66. After reading the whole passage, we can infer that the author _______.
A. didn’t do well in electrical engineering at first
B. wanted to be a guesser all his life
C. could learn new things very quickly
D. wanted to be a person like Dave Hensley
67. By writing about his own experience, the author wants to tell us _______.
A. how to be a successful guesser as a freshman
B. how to be a popular person in a company
C. the importance of trust(信任)and encouragement
D. the importance of having a good manager

When I was about 4 years old, I decided to go to Disney World. For most young kids, it’s a normal request, but I had cerebral palsy (脑瘫). Walking into anywhere, let alone a crowded place like Disney World was, to put it lightly, a tall order. Luckily, I had people in my corner to help me. Over the next three years, I worked with physical doctors, acquired a walker, and practiced walking, standing, and balance — all skills that I would need to turn my goal into a reality.
I remember the feeling when my legs would protest doing any more work. Despite this, everyone else told me I could do it, so I kept it up. It was all because of people like my parents, brothers, teachers, and doctors that I was able to grow so much, both physically and mentally. Constantly pushing me to “walk on,” yet encouraging me whenever I needed it.
On June 9, 2008, as I stood in the tunnel leading into Main Street, my dad asked me if I wanted any help. I instantly replied, “No!” and situated myself facing the end of the tunnel, feet planted firmly, heart most likely beating out of my chest. Then I went, walking ever so slowly at first, then gradually speeding up. Step, step, step, step, bump. Holding fast onto the handlebars, I gathered up all my strength, picked up my walker and straightened out, picking up my pace once again. It wasn’t too long before the cheering increased because I had made it to the end, where my mom was waiting with tears in her eyes and arms open wide ready to hug her son and tell him how proud she was.
Looking back on that experience, I realize something pretty thoughtful. Every once in a while, life will throw a few bumps in the road. Though it may set you back for a bit, don’t let it stop you. Pick yourself back up and finish. It’s worth it. Besides, there just might be someone there cheering you on along the way.
1.Which of the following best explains “a tall order” underlined in paragraph 1?
A.An easy decision. B.An available action.

A.He eventually has his brain disease well cured.
B.He constantly gets courage and support from others.
C.He is likely to do any kind of work in his later life.
D.He is naturally gifted in keeping balance on his own.
3.The author gives a vivid picture of himself in paragraph 3 to______.
A.explain he was terrified to take the first step
B.describe he took pride in his mother and friends
C.show how he managed to walk by himself
D.prove how he understood to respect others
4.What can be the best title of the text?
A.Where Dreams Come True B.When Bad Fortune Falls
C.How I Value Friendship D.Why I Look Back My Life
