There I sat, 21 enough to be a father to most of the students in the room, 22 unconfident enough to be their baby brother. We were crowded elbow (肘部) to elbow, listening to a 23 who looked even younger than the students. I felt uncomfortable and out of place as the professor carefully 24 what she expected us to learn. As I listened, I couldn"t help but 25 of my own oldest daughter who was now beginning her first year in 26 , just like me. I remembered how hard I had tried to help build self-confidence in her and my other children. So why did I suddenly feel like a scared 27 myself"? When I walked out of that classroom, I had serious 28 about my ability to make it 29 college. Not until late that night did my thinking 30 .It was a long-distance 31 from my daughter, my fellow college freshman, that did the trick. She spoke on the phone about the doubts, worries and anxieties she was 32 . She was certain that she"d never 33 at college. How 34 her worries sounded! In my most confident parental 35 , I said, “Doing your best is all the world 36 .” The next day in class, those words still repeated in my head. When the professor raised a 37 for the class, nobody, including me, 38 to answer. When I looked around al the 39 and uncertainty on the young faces in that room, I knew 40 what I had to do: my best. That"s all the world asks. So I raised my hand, and the professor called my name. I spoke. 21. A. big B. tall C. old D. strong 22. A. and B. so C. or D. yet 23.

C Among the more colorful characters of Leadville’s golden age were H.A.W. Tabor and his second wife, Elizabeth McCourt, better known as "Baby Doe". Their history is fast becoming one of the legends of the Old West. Horace Austin Warner Tabor was a school teacher in Vermont. With his first wife and two children he left Vermont by covered wagon in 1855 to homestead in Kansas. Perhaps he did not find farming to his liking, or perhaps he was attracted by rumors of fortunes to be made in Colorado mines. At any rate, a few years later he moved west to the small Colorado mining camp known as California Gulch, which he later renamed Leadville when he became its leading citizen. "A large amount of lead is sure to be found here." he said. As it turned out, it was silver, not lead, that was to make Leadville’s fortune and wealth. Tabor knew little about mining himself, so he opened a general store, which sold everything from boots to salt, flour, and tobacco. It was his custom to "grubstake" prospective(预期的) miners, in other words, to supply them with food and supplies, or"grub", while they looked for ore(矿石), in return for which he would get a share in the mine if one was discovered. He did this for a number of years, but no one that he aided ever found anything of value. Finally one day in the year 1878, so the story goes, two miners came in and asked for "grub". Tabor had decided to quit supplying it because he had lost too much money that way. These were persistent(坚持的), however, and Tabor was too busy to argue with them. "Oh help yourself. One more time won’t make any difference," He said and went on selling shoes and hats to other customers. The two miners took $17 worth of supplies, in return for which they gave Tabor a one-third interest in their findings. They picked a barren place on the mountainside and began to dig. After nine days they struck a rich vein of silver. Tabor bought the shares of the other two men, and so the mine belonged to him alone. This mine, known as the "Pittsburgh Mine," made $1,300, 000 for Tabor in return for his $17 investment. Later Tabor bought the Matchless Mine on another barren hillside just outside the town for $117,000.This turned out to be even more abundant than the Pittsburgh, producing $35 000 worth of silver per day at one time. Leadville grew. Tabor became its first mayor, and later became the governor of the state. 49. The word "grubstake" in paragraph 2 means __________ . A. to supply miners with food and supplies B. to open a general store C. to do one’s contribution to the development of the mine D. to supply miners with food and supplies and in return get a share in the mine, if one was discovered 50.Tabor made his first fortune_________. A. by supplying two prospective miners and getting in return a one-third interest in the findings B. because he was persuaded by the two miners to quit supplying C. by buying the shares of the other D. as a land speculator(投机商) 51. The underlying(潜在的)reason for Tabor’s successful life career is __________. A. purely accidental B. based on the analysis of miner’s being very poor and their possibility of discovering profitable mining site C. through the help from his second wife D. he planned well and accomplished targets step by step 52. If this passage is the first part of an article, who might be introduced in the following part? A. Tabor’s life. B. Tabor’s second wife, Elizabeth McCourt. C. Other colorful characters. D. Tabor’s other careers. |
