Coming home from school that dark winter day so long ago, I was filled with excitement of having the weekend off. But I was 36 into stillness by what I saw. Mother was seated at the far end of the sofa, 37 , with the second-hand green typewriter on the table. She told me that she couldn’t type fast and then she was out of work. My shock and embarrassment at finding Mother in tears was a perfect proof of how 38 I understood the pressures on her.

still my mother, 49 she was something 50 : a person like me, capable of fear and 51 and failure. I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions(场合)when I sought 52 in her arms.
A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station 53 . “It’s a job I can do, though”she said simply.

Interviewing is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease as when you try it for the first time, you’ll probably never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he or she is maybe too shy to reveal. But at least half of the skill is mechanical(机械的). The rest is instinct(天赋), which can all be learned with experience. The basic tools for an interview are paper and two or three well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook or paper out of sight until you need it. There’s nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-talking pad. Both of you need time to get to know each other. Take a while just to chat, judging what sort of person you’re dealing with, getting him or her to trust you.

Never go into an interview without doing whatever homework you can .If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If it’s an actor, know what plays he has been in. You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance. Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions and have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. The fear is almost 100 percent unnecessary. Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him . Most men and women lead lives that are uninteresting, and they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to listen. This doesn’t necessarily mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, and they will get used to the process(程序)awkwardly(笨拙的), perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. Come back another day; it will go better. You will both even begin to enjoy it——proof that you aren’t forcing your victim to do something he doesn’t really want to.
56.The underlined word “reveal” could best be replaced by “________”. A.ask B.question C.give D.seek
57.According to the passage, during an interview note books or paper should ________. A.never be used B.be used only when necessary C.be kept at home D.be given to the interviewer
58.The writer of the passage suggests that before interviewing a person, you should ________. A.have sharpened your pencil well and get your notebooks ready B.visit a town official and meet an actor C.read as many books as possible
D.make good preparations
59.It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that most men and women _________. A.are afraid to meet interviewers B.hate being interviewed C.like being interviewed D.fear to speak to outsiders
60.According to the passage, if a person being interviewed is too uneasy to give you anything useful, what should you do? A.Arrange another interview. B.Give him or her a bad score. C.Wait until he or she calms down. D.Try to make him or her trust you.

I love Charles Barkley like a brother but we disagree from time to time. Here’s an example of what I mean: I disagree with what Charles says in his Nike commercial, the one in which he insist, “I am not a role model.” Charles, you can deny being a role model all you want, but we don’t choose to be role models, we are chosen. Our only choice is whether to be a good role model or a bad one. I don’t think we can accept all the glory and the money that comes with being a famous athlete and not accept the responsibility of being a role model, of knowing that kids and even some adults are

watching us and looking for us to set an example.
I love being a role model, and I try to be a positive one. That doesn’t mean I always succeed. I’m not saint (圣贤的). I make mistakes, and sometimes I do childish things. But you don’t have to be perfect to be a good role model, and people shouldn’t expect perfection. If I were deciding whether a basketball player was a positive role model, I would want to know: Does he influence people’s lives in a positive way away from the court (球场)? How much has he given of himself, in time or in money, to help people who look up to him? Does he display the values——like honesty and determination——that are part of being a good person?
Kids have lots of other role models——teachers, movies stars, athletes, even other kids. As athletes, we can’t take the place of parents, but we can help reinforce(巩固)what they try to teach their kids.
Constantly being watched by the public can be hard to stand at times. I don’t think most people can imagine what it’s like to be watched that closely every minute of every day.
But the good things about being a role model outweigh the bad, It’s a great feeling to think you’re a small part of the reason that a kid decided to give school another try instead of dropping out or that a kid had the strength to walk away when someone offered him drugs. But one thing I would encourage parents to do is to remind their kids that no matter which athletes they look up to, there are no perfect human beings. That way, if the kid’s heroes should make mistakes, it won’t seem like the end of the world to them.
61.The author of this article holds the opinion that ________. A.a famous athlete ought to set a good example to the public B.a famous athlete needn’t be a role model if he doesn’t want to C.a famous athlete can’t deny being a role model D.it’s hard to be a role model
62.According to the author, a positive role model ________. A.can win more money and fame
B.are not allowed to make mistakes C.are the most important examples a child can follow D.can have some positive influence on people’s follow
63.The underlined word “outweigh” in the last paragraph probable means ________. A.be greater than B.be worse than C.be less than D.be lighter than 64.Which of the following is best supported by the last paragraph? A.A good role model can stop children taking drugs. B.Kids usually expect too much of their role models.
C.Dropping out of schools and taking drugs are the two most serious problems American kids
face.
D.Kids drop out of school or take drugs if seeing their heroes make mistakes. 65.The author of this article is probably ________. A.an admirer of Charles Barkley B.a famous athlete himself
