Mary’s parents are different from the average. While she was growing up they required her to 21. First of all she had to work around their home. Later on Mary worked for other people.
When Mary was 14 years old, her mother and father told her that they were no 22 going to buy her clothes. Sure, they would continue to buy shoes for her and also the special clothes like suits, but 23 else was her responsibility. Some people thought that they were 24, but they wanted to teach Mary some 25 lessons. One thing she learned was that nothing is cheap or 26. She learned how to deal with her money carefully. Another thing she learned was 27 to keep from wearing out(穿破)her clothes too fast.
Also, even 28 Mary went to school she was 29 to work. All through her high school and 30 years she worked as well as studied. Mary’s parents had plenty of 31 but they felt she would 32 her education more if she had to 33 it. And strange as it may seem, they had heard that students who worked part- time generally got 34 grades than students who did no work.

You may have heard of Osceola McCarty, an 88-year-old woman in Mississippi who had worked for over 75 years as a 36 woman.
One day after she retired, she went to the bank and discovered that her small monthly 37 had grown to over＄150,000. Then to everyone’s surprise, she turned around and 38 almost all of the money to the University of Southern Mississippi (USM) for a 39 fund for students with financial needs. Immediately, she made national 40 .
What you have not heard is how Osceola’s gift had 41 my life. I am 19 years old and the first 42 of an Osceola McCarty Scholarship.
I was a 43 student, and I was determined to go to USM. But I 44 being qualified for a regular scholarship by one point on the entrance exams, and a scholarship was the 45 way I could attend.
One Sunday, I came across the story in the paper about Osceola McCarty and her generous 46 . The next day I went to the financial aid office, and they told me there was still no money 47 for me, but if anything came up they’d call.
A few days later, I was going out with my mother 48 the phone rang. I was told I had been chosen to be given the first Osceola McCarty Scholarship. I was 49 !
McCarty worked hard her whole life, washing clothes by hand. Now that she is 50 , she sits most of the day and reads the Bible, that is, when she is not getting rewards. Every time I go to visit her, she has a new 51 . She’s even gone to the White House. She is so happy and proud. We have tried to talk her into getting a VCR (录像机) so she can tape the programs and see 52 on TV—she just smiles.
McCarty gave me much more than a scholarship. She taught me about the gift of 53 . Now I know there are good people in the world who do good things. She worked hard and helped others, and in turn she has inspired me to 54 when I can some day. So 55 I plan to add to her scholarship fund.

I don’t like getting up too early unless I have to. When you’re filming, you’ve got make-up on, which doesn’t happen often. As I’m not filming at present I’ll get up at 8.30.
Work normally means Matt coming over to my house about 10 am. We’re writing at the moment. We’ll chat for a bit before going to my study. One of us will have an idea for a sketch (梗概), we’ll talk about the characters and when we feel we have enough we’ll start writing.
Matt and I met at the National Youth Theatre in 1990 and started doing shows together in ’95, at the Edinburgh Fringe festival. We know we’re onto something if we’ve made each other laugh, and that’s a really special moment. It’s not always like that, but we’re comfortable enough with each other that we can be honest and go. Some days you’re not in the mood to be funny—like writing when my dad was dying of cancer, or when Matt was separating from his partner.
We stop for lunch and sometimes go to Wagamama in Camden, but the last time we were followed by paparazzi (狗仔队), which gets you down—who wants to be pictured eating noodles?
When I’m not writing with Matt I work on other projects. My second children’s book comes out later in the year. It’s called Mr. Stink. The first one I dedicated to my three-year-old nephew, Eddie. Both books have been illustrated by Quentin Blake; it’s been a thrill to work with him—like 20 years ago reading a Roald Dahl book and looking at those drawings, then one day that person illustrates your work… magical.
At 5 I go swimming in Soho. My trainer makes me do horrible exercises, but I always feel better after.
Being in all day, I like to go out in the evening and look smart, but not like I’ve come out of the City. I’m a tall, broad guy and well-dressed.
For dinner I’ll meet friends. When you’re a single guy it’s great to have some good female friends. Or I might take my mum to the theatre, as I know she really appreciates it. I like watching TV comedy shows to see what everyone’s doing. When you see something impressive it makes you work harder. I also love Larkin’s poems: they don’t try to transcend (超越) the commonplace; they’re much more straightforward.
Poetry is great to dip into before going to bed, rather than falling asleep reading a novel and being confused over what you’ve read or not. I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in seven years; unfortunately, I rely on pills. I’ve tried everything. If I could wish anything for myself, I’d wish I could sleep better.
67. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
A. the author spends much time with his friends
B. the author and Matt are both famous in the district
C. the author doesn’t care much about what to wear
D. the author works at home and seldom goes out every day
68. Where does the passage most likely appear?
A. In a travel diary. B. In a news column.
C. In an online diary. D. In a research paper.
69. Why does the author read some poetry before going to bed?
A. Because poetry can often bring him some funny ideas.
B. Because poetry is much easier to understand than novels.
C. Because poetry is very abstract and reflects unusual things.
D. Because poetry can be of some help for him to kill time.
70. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. A day’s work with Matt B. A new life-style
C. A life in the day D. A good way to write

There is a treasure in each and every one of us. If we take the time to get to know that person and ask God to show us that person the 47 He sees them, then the clay begins to 48 and the brilliant jewel begins to shine forth. May we not come to the 49 of our lives and find out that we’ve thrown away a 50 in friendships because the gems were hidden in balls of clay! May we see the people in our world as God sees them.
