When other nine-year-old kids were playing games, she was working at a petrol station. When other teens were studying or going out, she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie,“Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story”, shown in late April.
Liz Murray, a 22-year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it.
Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets.“What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other way of being. I had only experienced a small part of the society,”she wrote in her book Breaking Night.
She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe living environment, to encourage herself that“next to nothing could hold me down”. She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS.“I love my parents so much. They are drug addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time.”
Liz wants moviegoers (who often see films) to come away with the idea that changing your life is“as simple as making a decision”.
In which order did the following things happen to Liz?
A．Her mother died of AIDS. B．She worked at a petrol station.
C．She got admitted into Harvard. D．The movie about her life was put on.

The main idea of the passage is ________.

What actually made her go towards her goal?

I was very hungry as I had only eaten one meal all day. Waiting at the bus stop, I 40 eagerly for a store 41 I could buy food. Then I heard an old woman’s voice 42
behind me, “Steamed corn(蒸玉米)！Steamed corn！One yuan each!” Her voice was breaking and 43 deep despair. Staring at the old woman, I felt pity. She was 44 ,just like a beggar. But she was much older than the other beggars in the street. Her face was 45 and her eyes were full of tears. Her large withered(干枯的) fingers kept a tight hold on her basket of steamed corns. What had happened to her? Why was a woman 46 selling corns on such a cold evening? I felt sad. I had to do something. I took the five-yuan note from my wallet and handed it to her.

She was already 51 to me because I was the only person to buy steamed corns from her all day.
I was 52 moved. She was so old and weak but chose to sell snacks 53 beg. From that moment, I had 54 for her, and didn’t feel pity any more. The corn was sweet and delicious. But 55 made me happier was that I helped a respectable old woman as much as I could.
