   Learning experiences happen to us in our lives. Not long ago, I had one that I would like to share.

   I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the high-way at    33   we realized we were hungry. Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand-new $20 bill. I was so    34  because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on food seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line.    35    I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I    36    I had not handed any money to the cashier (收銀員). I had just walked out, and 37    had noticed. I felt terrible.

   My conscience (良心) opened its mouth and swallowed (吞) me in one big bite. I couldn’t    38    over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and pay for my stolen pizza. I was so upset (不安的) that I    39    to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream for    40    that someone would say, “Hey. Jeff, why don’t you use the change from the pizza instead of that nice, new $20 bill?” I was not so    41    of my cash now.

   For the next two years, whenever the “pizza thing” came into my mind, I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it…”

   I have learned two things from this    42   . Maybe I was a fool giving in to my conscience, and being too stupid to have a free pizza. But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done, your conscience will    43    you.

   This goes with the saying, “A coward (懦夫) dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies one,” I was a coward and have felt terrible    44    that at least a thousand times. If I had been a “hero” and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once, or maybe twice.

   A worldwide food shortage is getting more and more serious for the lives of millions.

   The period of cheap food is over. In Cameroon, 24 people have been killed in food riots (暴亂) since February. In the past month, there have been food riots in eight other countries.

   Ban Ki-Moon said that higher food prices risked (冒險(xiǎn)) sweeping away progress towards solving poverty (being poor) problems and could harm the world’s growth and safety.

WHAT CAUSED THE PRICE RISES?

   The rise in the price of crops may result from many things. For example, the sudden need of food crops for use in biofuels (生物燃料), in both Europe and the United States. The rice-growing land in countries such as the Philippines is being lost to industrialization and urbanization (城市化), while the growing need for meat and dairy products is leading farmers to give up rice growing. Flooding and cold weather in rice-producing countries have also hit production.

WHO IS WORST INFLUENCED?

   The food price rise hits the poor hardest. Food makes up about 10 to 20 percent of home spending in developed countries, but as much as 60 to 80 per cent in developing countries.

   The World Food Programme has warned that we could be living in a world of food supply imbalances (不平衡) until 2010 at least.

WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT?

   In the short term, farmers in the developed world are likely to be attracted (吸引) by high prices and try to grow more crops. The signs are that Europe’s farmers will grow 13 per cent more crops this year.

   In the developing world, things are less certain, because the poorest in Africa and India have been selling their tools and their animals just to buy food.

   For the poorest, recovery (恢復(fù)) is more difficult and help will be needed. The balance will finally be repaired --- nearly half of the world’s possible farming land is unused.

試題詳情

48. What worldwide problem is the passage talking about?

   A. There’re food riots in nine countries.

   B. 24 people have been killed since February.

   C. There’s no enough food for millions of people.

   D. Industrialization make people give up rice growing

試題詳情

49. Which is NOT the cause of food price rises?

   A. Developed countries need crops for biofuels.

   B. Urbanization uses more farming land.

   C. Bad weather makes less food production.

   D. The farmers don’t like to grow rice.

試題詳情

50. In most Chinese families, ______ percent of the home spending is on food.

   A. 10               B. 20             C. 30                    D. 70

試題詳情

51. What can we learn from the passage?

   A. Europe’s farmers will become much richer because of higher prices.

   B. The higher food prices may harm the world’s growth and safety.

   C. The food supply problem will disappear soon in the poorest countries.

   D. We need buy and store much food for the future at the moment.

C

   Around twenty years ago I was living in Seattle and going through hard times. I could not find a satisfying job and I found this especially difficult as I had a lot of experience and a Master’s degree.

   To my shame I was driving a school bus to make ends meet and living with friends. I had been through five interviews with a company and one day between bus runs they called to say I did not get the job.

   Later that afternoon, while doing my rounds through a quiet neighborhood I had an internal (inside) wave ― like a scream (尖叫) ― come up from deep inside me and I thought “Why has my life become so hard?”

   Immediately after this internal scream I pulled the bus over to drop off a little girl and as she passed she handed me an earring saying I should keep it in case somebody looked for it. The earring was stamped with words ‘BE HAPPY’.

   At first I got angry. Then it hit me. I had been putting all of my energies into what was wrong with my life rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a list of 50 things I was thankful to.

試題詳情

   At first it was hard, then it got easier. One day I decided to up it to 75. That night there was a phone call for me, asking if I would do a one-day training for 200 hospital workers. I said yes and got the job.

   My day with the hospital workers went very well. I got a standing welcome and many more days of work. To this day I KNOW that it was because I changed my attitude (態(tài)度) to gratitude.

By chance, the day after I found the earring the girl asked me if anyone had looked for it. I told her no and she said “I guess it was meant for you then.”

   I spent the next year doing training workshops all around the Seattle area and then decided to risk everything and go back to Scotland where I had lived before. I closed my one man business and bought a plane ticket. One month later I met my wonderful English wife and best friend of 15 years now. We live in a small beautiful house in Scotland.

   ‘THE ONLY ATTITUDE IS GRATITUDE’ has been my motto (座右銘) for years now and yes, it completely changed my life.

試題詳情

52. What does the underlined word it mean?
