Many of us spend a great deal of time and energy trying to prove that we are right and others are wrong.

One stormy night many years ago, an elderly man and his wife entered the hall of a small hotel in Philadelphia. Trying to get out of the rain, they came to the front desk hoping to get some shelter for the night.
“Could you possibly give us a room here?” the husband asked.
The clerk, a friendly man with a winning smile, looked at the couple and explained that there were three conventions in town.“All of our rooms are taken,” the clerk said.“But I can’t send a nice couple like you out into the rain at one o’clock in the morning. Would you perhaps be willing to sleep in my room? It’s not exactly a suite, but it will be good enough to make you folks comfortable for the night.”
When the couple declined, the young man pressed on.“Don’t worry about me; I’ll make out just fine.” the clerk told them. So the couple agreed.
As he paid his bill the next morning, the elderly man said to the clerk,“You are the kind of manager who should be the boss of the best hotel in the United States. Maybe someday I’ll build one for you.” The clerk looked at them and smiled. The three of them had a good laugh. As they drove away, the elderly couple agreed that the helpful clerk was indeed exceptional, as finding people who are both friendly and helpful isn’t easy.
Two years passed. The clerk had almost forgotten the incident when he received a letter from the old man. It recalled that stormy night and enclosed a round—trip ticket to New York, asking the young man to pay them a visit.
The old man met him in New York, and led him to the corner of Fifth Avenue and 34th street. He then pointed to a great new building there, a pale reddish stone, with turrets and watchtowers thrusting up to the sky.“That,” said the older man,“is the hotel I have just built for you to manage.”“You must be joking,” the young man said.“I can assure you I am not,” said the older man, a sly smile playing around his mouth.
The older man’s name was William Waldorf Astor, and that magnificent structure was the original Waldorf—Astoria Hotel. The young clerk who became its first manager was George C.Boldt. This young clerk never foresaw the turn of events that would lead him to become the manager of one of the world’s most glamorous hotels.
小题1:The purpose of the author writing this story is to_______.| A．give people a good laugh | B．cover some facts | | C．promote the business of Waldorf—Astoria Hotel | D．deliver a lesson |
小题2:Which of the statements about the story is NOT true?| A．The story took place at about one a.m.. | | B．The old couple was too poor to afford a luxurious room. | | C．The clerk was willing to help those in need. | | D．The clerk received an unexpected invitation from the old man. |
小题3:The underlined word “conventions” in Para.3 can be replaced by_______?| A．rooms | B．suites | C．meetings | D．hotels |
小题4:Which of the following proverbs suits the story the best?| A．Every little thing helps. | | B．Make hay while the sun shines. | | C．Man proposes； God disposes(处理,决定). | | D．One good turn deserves another. |

Growing up on a tobacco farm, Emma Avery was used to hard times. When she was seven, her family’s farmhouse burned to the ground. Her father made a temporary (临时的) shelter, where eight people had to sleep in two beds. As soon as Emma and her four brothers and two sisters were big enough, they were out in the fields.
Emma would find her comfort in school, even as a C student, thanks to one teacher. When she moved on to middle school, Emma was alarmingly far behind her classmates. She kept her head down, trying not to be noticed, struggling to catch up, and feeling like an outsider.
Then one day, when Emma was 16, a teacher named Mr. Potts changed everything. Looking his students in the eye, Mr. Potts said, "Being a C student does not mean you do not have a valuable contribution to make. Some of you have to work in the fields in the evening and do not have time to study. But if you do your best, you have a gift to give."
The teacher’s words made Emma believe she could do well, and she worked harder. In the end she won a scholarship to St. Paul’s College, graduated with a degree in elementary education in 1967, and got a job in the public-school system. Then, at George Washington University, she received a master’s in education in 1970, and afterwards in the same year she married Ron Smothers.
Over the next six years, Emma taught in public schools in Miami. In 1976, after saving $10,000, she opened her first restaurant in Los Angeles. Eventually Emma stopped teaching, and her business expanded (扩展) to six restaurants.
In gratitude (感激) for what she has been able to achieve, Emma donates a lot. She has no idea how much money she’s given away. She says, "Those I want to help are the C students who just need help, direction and confidence."
小题1:The first paragraph serves to show that Emma ______.| A．was poor and had no time to study | | B．was born on a tobacco farm | | C．was sad to lose her house | | D．was kind enough to help support the family |
小题2:From the text we learn that Emma ______.| A．won a scholarship to George Washington University | | B．was unsuccessful as a businesswoman | | C．was thankful to Mr. Potts | | D．disliked teaching, and gave up the job |
小题3:From the second paragraph we can infer that Emma was ______.| A．unintelligent | B．unconfident | C．hard-working | D．Considerate |
小题4:The text mainly wants to tell us ______.| A．confidence is the first step to success | | B．memory of the past is the teacher of the future | | C．something attempted, something done | | D．nothing is impossible to a willing heart |
