When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, "Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn't work out, you'll have something to rely on. " Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, "the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course," she recalls.
The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her morn," I don't know how to use a computer," she admits.
Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. "I felt there was a need for a book like this," she says. " I didn't want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease. "
But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow u p ---again---and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.
Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. "Everybody on earth can ask, 'why me?' about something or other," she insists. "It doesn't do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be. "
【小题1】Why did Mary feel regretful?

A.She didn't achieve her ambition.B.She didn't take care of her mother.
C.She didn't complete her high school.D.She didn't follow her mother's advice.
【小题2】When Mary received the life-changing news, she         .
A.lost control of herself B.began a balanced diet
C.need to get a treatment D.behaved in an adult way
【小题3】What can we know from the last paragraph?
A.Mary feels pity for herself.
B.Mary has recovered from her disease.
C.Mary wants to help others as much as possible.
D.Mary determines to go back to the dance floor.

Several years ago, I had a huge falling out with one of my best friends. So huge, in fact, that now I can’t even remember what happened.

In the past nine years, I’ve seen her twice, and each time we’ve been polite but distant. And that troubles me because we were once inseparable. I’d like nothing more than to go back nine years, and continue our friendship. But how? How do you reconnect with friends you’ve lost throughout the years?

Linking to your past

The desire to reconnect with lost friends isn’t unusual. Why? Because friends link us to the past. “Friends from years ago are custodians (监护人) of our past,” says Sandy Sheehy.

Although you can share information about your past with friends you’ve met recently, you don’t have a shared history with them. So you wind up only telling them about your past, rather than sharing it with them.

But many people never try to reconnect. Women especially have trouble taking the first step. Shyness or fear that the other person doesn’t want to reconnect often stops many women. And that shouldn’t be. Your friends probably want to be in touch with you as much as you want to be in touch with them.

Searching for friends

Fortunately, finding lost friends isn’t as difficult as it once was, thanks to tools like the Internet. Our experts offer these suggestions for locating contact information:

Search Internet sites designed to locate people like classmates.com and switchboard.com.

Contact your high school or college alumni (校友) office to request current address information.

Surf online yellow pages. Check current phone records from your friend’s hometown.

Network with other friends who might have known your friend.

Get in touch with any of her relatives, if you know where they live. If you know where she works, find the company’s website and search the directory of personnel.

1.What is the subject discussed in the passage?

    A. How to make new friends.                

B. How to rebuild friendship.

    C. How to develop healthy friendship.          

D. How to keep in touch with friends.

2.The underlined sentence “friends from years ago are custodians of our past” in Paragraph 3 means _____.

    A. years ago old friends kept something for us

    B. in the past old friends took care of us

    C. old friends are part of our life history

    D. old friends know what wrongs we did

3.What makes us unwilling to reconnect old friends?

A. Lack of money.     B. Busy time.    C. Regret and shame. D. Fear and shyness.

4.How can we make contact with the lost friends?

    A. By asking other friends of the information on your lost friends.

    B. By searching your friends’ telephone number on the Net.

    C. By asking the local post office about your friends’ new address.

    D. By putting an advertisement in your friends’ local town.
