     Juanito Estrella has been a housekeeping manager on the US-based large passenger ship Carnival Spirit for
18 months and feels he has found the suitable position in his career (职业). He has always wanted to travel.
"I guess I am a really restless spirit. I like traveling, so when the chance came, I jumped at it," he says.
     The chance came in the form of a newspaper advertisement for work on cruise ships (游船). At the time
Estrella was the housekeeping manager at a Melbourne hotel. He applied and, after two interviews, a medical
check and police clearance, the job was his.
     Estrella is responsible (负责的) for the cleanliness of the ship, making sure that 160 crew work properly.
"I enjoy it because there is no other work-you wake up each day in a different place and a different culture.
It"s exciting when you go to the next country and you don"t understand the language," he says.
     Estrella likes being busy and getting to know people from all over the world. The 1,000 crew come from
94 countries, and Estrella has learnt Spanish and a little Croatian.
     But there is a downside. "You cannot get really drunk...because you have safety responsibilities to yourself
and others," he says. "You don"t really think about home. You start to think about home only when you get
closer to your vacation and wonder what you"ll be doing."
     Life on the ship is anything but cruising. Estrella and his fellows work at least 10 hours a day, seven days
a week. He warns the job is not for everybody. "You have to love being busy and be prepared to work every
day-and to give up drinking too much alcohol." In his spare time, if the ship sails into a port, Estrella explores
it, otherwise he works out in the crew"s gym, goes on the internet or calls home.
1. What do we know about Estrella?
A. He is very fond of traveling.
B. He doesn"t drink wine now.
C. He cannot speak a foreign language.
D. He used to be a housekeeping manager.
2. The underlined word "downside" in paragraph 5 probably means _____.
A. disappointment
B. disadvantage
C. failure
D. loss
3. Which of the following is true?
A. Estrella doesn"t often feel homesick because of his work.
B. The work on the ship is not suitable for a married person.
C. Estrella can find no other job except the one on the ship.
D. The people on the ship are from 94 countries.
4. In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that life on the ship is _____.
A. not a tiring journey at all
B. just an interesting voyage
C. far from a voyage for pleasure
D. more than a pleasant travel by sea

     A university graduate described as a "respectable and intelligent" woman is seeking professional help
after being convicted of (证明有……罪) shoplifting for the second time in six months.
     Ana Luz, recently studying for her PhD, has been told she could end up behind bars unless she can
control the desire to steal from shops.
     Luz,who lives with her partner in Fitzwilliam Road, Cambridge,admitted stealing clothes worth £9.95
from John Lewis in Oxford Street,London, on March 9.
     Phillip Lemoyne, prosecuting (起诉), said Luz selected some clothes from a display and took them to
the ladies" toilet in the store. When she came out again she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected,
having taken off the anti-theft security alarms (防盗警报装置).

was upset on her arrest and apologized for her actions.

said. "She didn"t intend to steal when she went into the store. She is at a loss to explain it. She is otherwise a
very respectable and intelligent young lady. She went to her doctor and asked for advice because she wants
to know if there is anything in particular that caused her to do this."

will end up in prison,which will ruin your bright future you may have."

     Sometimes, something that is considered to be negative turns out to be an advantage on the job. Though
he is only l8 years old and blind, Suleyman Gokyigit is among the top computer technicians and programmers
at InteliData Technologies Corp., a large software company with several offices across the United States.
     "After our company united with another one last October, two different computer networks were driving
us crazy," recalls Douglas Braun, the InteliData president. "We couldn"t even send e-mail to each other." In
three weeks Mr Gokyigit created the software needed to connect the two networks. "None of the company"s
350 other employees could have done the job in three months," says Mr. Braun. "Suleyman can "see" into the
heart of the computer."
     Mr. Gokyigfi"s gift, as Mr. Braun calls it, is an unusual ability to form an idea of the inside of a machine.
"The computer permits me to reach out into the world and do almost anything I want to do," says Mr. Gokyigit.
     The young programmer is at home with hardware as well, thanks partly to a highly developed sense of
touch. Mitzi Nowakowski, an office manager at InteliData, remembers how he easily disconnected and
reconnected their computer systems during a move last year. "Through feel, Suleyman can find the position
of connectors, pins and wires much faster than most other people with sight," he says.
     Much of the student programmer"s speed comes from his ability not to be interrupted while at the computer.
When typing, he listens carefully to the synthesizer (合成器). His long, thin fingers fly over the keyboard.
"Nothing seems to shake his attention," says Mrs. Nowakowski, his boss.
     Mr. Gokyigit is the only company employee who is available (可找到的) 24 hours a day. "We consider him
our top problem solver." says Mr. Braun.
1. According to Mr. Braun, Suleyman _____.
A. can work wonders on computer
B. is the best technician in the world
C. has done a hard job in three months
D. has united InteliData Technologies Corp. with another computer company
2. The underlined part "is at home with hardware" (paragraph 4) means _____.
A. is good at dealing with computer hardware
B. is fond of computer hardware
C. works with computer hardware at home
D. feels comfortable when working with computer hardware
3. Suleyman was quick while at the computer mostly because of _____.
A. his blindness
B. his attention on the synthesizer
C. his long, thin fingers
D. his ability not to be interrupted
4. Suleyman was quick while at the computer mostly because of _____.
A. his blindness
B. his attention on the synthesizer
C. his long, thin fingers
D. his ability not to be interrupted
