            I decided early in my college years that I wanted to experience living abroad before entering in the real world. During my senior year, while most of my friends were interviewing for “real world” jobs, I was investigating how I could go work in a different country. At that early stage of my inquiry I was pretty open about where to go and what kind of work to undertake. My desire to live abroad was so strong that I was willing to do anything anywhere.
Soon I learned about BUNAC, a program that seemed to be designed precisely for student with such interests. BUNAC offers work visas ( 签证 ) for students or recent graduates to work overseas. Of the six countries available, I chose England because of the language and opportunities for employment.
Two months after I graduated from college I went to Britain. I traveled throughout Europe for six weeks before arriving in London. I got to London on August 24, 1997 with a work visa, but no job or place to live. I have to admit it was pretty scary! The day after I arrived, I experienced my first British holiday --- a Bank Holiday, a national holiday that everything is closed for the day. It wasn’t until my third day that I visited the BUNAC office and I learned all about living and working in Britain, paying taxes, getting health insurance, traveling around Britain, finding accommodations and most importantly, finding a job. I was most scared about finding a job since my financial resources were running low and I needed to get my pay soon.
It turned out that finding a job was not so difficult. The BUNAC program is very well known in London and many employers participate in the program. As a result there are many employers in many different fields to choose from. My job search began when I chose three different business employers and faxed them my resume (简历). That first week I had three interviews. I accepted my first offer working for Merrill Lynch International Bank. The Merrill Lynch office I worked at was in a beautiful, old building located two blocks from Buckingham Palace. The people were nice and the work interesting.
It was easy to adjust to life in London. And there is so much to see that after six months exploring I probably covered only half of what I intended.
【小题1】 When the author studied at college she decided _________.

A.to enter the “real world” after graduation
B.to go and work in a foreign country
C.to settle in a different country
D.to find a job in the home country
【小题2】The author chose England because ______.
A.it is a beautiful country and people there are nice
B.England is spoken there and it is easy to find a job
C.it is in Europe, not far from her own country
D.the BUNAC office is located there
【小题3】 After the author arrived in London, what worried her most was ________.
A.getting a jobB.buying health insurance
C.traveling around BritainD.finding a place to live
【小题4】Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
A.A Trip to BritainB.What I Want to Be
C.Living in a Different CountryD.My Work Experience

John H. Johnson was born in a black family in Arkansas City in 1918. His father died in an accident when John was six. He was reaching the high school age, but his hometown offered no high school for blacks.
Fortunately he had a strong-willed caring mother. John remembered that his mother told him many times, “Son, you can be anything you really want to be if you just believe.” She told him not to depend on others, including his mother. “You have to earn success,” she said. “All the people who work hard don’t succeed, but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard.”
These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education. She also knew that believing and hard work don’t mean everything. So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son, who was then 15, to Chicago. Chicago in 1933 was not the promised land that black southerners were looking for. John’s mother and stepfather could not find work. But here John could go to school, and here he learned the power of words---as an editor of the newspaper and yearbook at Du Sable High School. His wish was to publish a magazine for blacks.
While others discouraged him, John’s mother offered him more words to live by: “Nothing beats a failure but a try. ” She also let him pawn(典当)her furniture to get the $500 he needed to start the Negro magazine for blacks.
It is natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful. He always keeps his mother’s words in mind.: “Son, failure is not in your vocabulary!”
Now John H. Johnson is one of the 400 richest people in America---worth $150 million.
【小题1】John’s mother decided to move to Chicago because_______.

A.his father died when John was very young.
B.life was too hard for them to stay on in their hometown
C.John needed more education badly
D.there were no school for Negroes in their hometown
【小题2】John’s mother________.
A.didn’t believe in or depend on others
B.thought one could be whatever one wanted to be
C.believed one would succeed without working hard
D.thought no one could succeed without working hard.
【小题3】The sentence “Nothing beats a failure but a try” means _______.
A.if you try, you would succeed
B.a failure is difficult to beat, even if you try
C.a try is always followed by a failure
D.no failure can be beaten unless you try

My husband and children think they are very lucky that they are living and that it’s Christmas again. They can’t see that we live on a dirty street in a dirty house among people who aren’t much good. But Johnny and children can’t see this. What a pity it is that our neighbours have to make happiness out of all this dirt. I decided that my children must get out of this. The money that we’ve saved isn’t nearly enough.
The McGaritys have money but they are so proud. They look down upon the poor. The McGarity girl just yesterday stood out there in the street eating from a bag of candy(糖果)while a ring of hungry children watched her. I saw those children looking at her and crying in their hearts; and when she couldn’t eat any more she threw the rest down the sewer(下水道). Why, is it only because they have money ? There is more to happiness than money in the world, isn’t there?
Miss Jackson who teaches at the Settlement House isn’t rich, but she knows things. She understands people. Her eyes look straight into yours when she talks with you. She can read your mind. I’d like to see the children be like Miss Jackson when they grow up.

     During my free time one day, I wandered down a lonely path into the woods and sat against a tree.
Then I saw one of the camp counselors approaching me. "Oh great," I thought, since counselors were
always trying to cheer you up or make you laugh.
     "Hey," he said, "mind if I have a seat?" I shrugged. I wasn't. going to encourage him, but I couldn't
exactly stop him, either. He sat down alongside me and extended a hand. "I'm Gary," he said, "and
you're Erica, right?" I nodded. "You don't exactly look like you're having a good time," he began.
     I crossed my arms and gritted my teeth.  "Look," I said, "I didn't want to come to camp, I don't like
it. I'm not having fun, and it basically stinks(令讨厌的) ," I glared at Gary.
     "So there's nothing here at all for you, huh?" he asked.
     " Nothing,"  I answered.
     "Let me show you something," said Gary. He got up, and I followed him along the path until I heard
a  sound like a roaring freight train.
     " What's that?" I asked.
     "Wait and see," he replied, with a small smile.
     When we rounded the corner, I couldn't believe what I saw. There was the biggest waterfall I could
ever imagine, right in front of me. "Cool!" I said, and I could feel my eyes getting bigger and a smile
tugging at my mouth.
     "Still think there's nothing here for you?" asked Gary. " Because there's a whole lot more of this kind
of  nothing' around here. "
     I had to admit, the waterfall was impressive.
     "Look," said Gary, "camp is what you make it. You can be  sullen (闷闷不乐的)  and  closed-minded and have a rotten (倒霉的)  four weeks,  or you can take a look around you and see some of the
incredible sights and appreciate the opportunity. It would be useless for me to try to make you have fun.
You can only do that for yourself. But if you loosen up a little, you might actually have a good time."
With that, he turned and walked away, leaving me on the path.
     That night, by the campfire, I found myself singing along with everyone else. By the time the four
weeks were up, I didn't want to leave. I'd seen some amazing things and made some great friends.
      Beauty is where you find it. Life is what you make it. I think it's going to be a good year this year.
I mean, I'm going to work to make it one. Maybe if I'm lucky, I'll get to go back to camp next 
year.
