From his own version of Kim Kardashian's "Internet-breaking" picture to rocking the "Leia Buns"look,Mark Udovitch,28,hopes his celebrity impersonations (名人模仿) will help raise money for cancer patients.
Dressed in a garbage bag,black cleaning gloves and a plastic bag tie,the recreation (娛樂) of Kim Kardashion's picture is one of Mark's favorite celebrity impersonations.
Game of Throne characters are also a popular choice,and the radiation doctor has cosplayed (角色扮演) many famous figures.Mark says the reaction to the pictures has been positive,with a lot of laugh from his co-workers."I have gotten a very positive response from many other radiation doctors,who privately message me,saying how much respect they have for me,"he said.
But while the radiation doctor is having fun with his wild and strange creations,the cause behind it is sad.A patient once told him she was more devastated about losing her hair than surgery.It was at that moment that Mark decided to stop getting haircuts and start growing his hair.The radiation doctor will shave his hair off in a "Dry July Shave Off" and donate it to make false hair for cancer patients.
Mark recalled,"Over the course of 2.5 years,my mates have been absolutely belting me with comments about who I look like with my long hair.I took a photo of me impersonating Scott Stapp,the lead singer of Creed,as a joke last year and posted it on Facebook.It got 150+ likes,which is large for me since I am not very social media savvy(懂行的).Since that image got so much notice that I wonder how many celebrities I could actually impersonate in the lead.Shaving my head may be used as a means of raising awareness."
1.What does the underlined word "devastated" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Curious. B. Upset.
C. Cautious. D. Alarmed.
2.How did Mark's co-workers react to the photos?
A. They made fun of the photos. B. They didn't care about the photos.

C. To show off his talent online. D. To raise money for cancer patients.
4.What's probably the best title for the text?

C. Celebrity Impersonations D. Doctor's Impersonations for Patients

Four Habits to Help You Succeed
We all want to succeed, whether it’s in losing weight or learning the guitar. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand. Why does one person succeed where another person fails? 1.
1. Identify your core values.
Finding your core values is in line with creating inner motivation. 2.Pick a handful of things and actually write them down. Remind yourself of your values every day, and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work.
2. Pick a goal and focus on it.
Choose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense of achievement, while adjusting well to your core values. Focus is key here. 3.If you perform many tasks at a time, you might never complete your projects because they will take far too long.
3. Set a deadline for success.
Set a date for success. Identify when you hope to achieve your goal. 4.By setting a time limit, you are making the process more real.
4.5.
Failure can’t be avoided when you take risks. By its very definition, the desire to succeed means you are risking failure. Many people tend to give up far too early. Don’t fall into this trap! Remember your mindset earlier. Know it will happen. A failure is merely you working out the details, and learning what works and what doesn’t. Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and move on!
A. Stick to your goal.
B. Make the right decision.
C. I’ve made a list of four habits to help you set goals and achieve them.
D. Sit and reflect on what you value most.
E. Keep it realistic, while not giving you too much time.
F. The more focused you are on one goal, the higher chance you have of success.
G. Push yourself to be courageous, and take that next step.

Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart. They will in a lifetime, push the chrome?plated_contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.
Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention.
But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.
After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts.“Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?”one shopper replied.
But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony (假的) customers.
As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come — those who came bought more. With larger easier?to?handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.
Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason why Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—the coming of the shopping cart.
1.What do the underlined words“chrome?plated contraptions” in the first paragraph refer to?
A. Shopping carts. B. Suitcases.
C. Private cars. D. Baskets.
2.What was the purpose of Goldman’s invention?
A. It was to reduce the burden of his employees’work.
B. It was to prove him to be a good inventor.
C. It was to make shopping easier and attract more business.
D. It was to help the disabled make shopping easily in his market.
3.Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market in order to ________.
A. attract people to buy things in his market
B. make his market different from the others
C. keep the groceries from being stolen
D. encourage people to use his shopping carts
4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Goldman will become very famous because of his invention.
B. Supermarket business has benefited a lot from Goldman’s invention.
C. Goldman’s invention will be regarded as the greatest one in the world.
D. There will be nothing that can replace Goldman’s invention.
