    It was the summer of 1965. Deluca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked Deluca about his plans for the future. “I’m going to college, but I need a way to pay for it,” DeLuca recalls saying. “Buck said, ‘You should open a sandwich shop.’”
    That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years. After doing some research, buck wrote a check for $1000. DeLuca rented a storefront (店面) in Connecticut, and when they couldn’t cover their start-up costs, Buck kicked in another $1000.
    But business didn’t go smoothly as they expected. DeLuca says, “After six months, we were doing poorly, but we didn’t know how badly, because we didn’t have any financial controls.” All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs.
    DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York. They’d meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “We convinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public, ‘We are so successful, we are opening a second store.’” And they did—in the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.
    But the partners’ learn-as-you-go approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers. “It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasn’t necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out,” DeLuca says.
    And having a goal was also important. “There are so many problems that can get you down. You just have to keep working toward your goal,” DeLuca adds.
    DeLuca ended up founding Subway Sandwich, the multimillion-dollar restaurant chain.
    48．DeLuca opened the first sandwich shop in order to ____.
    A．support his family
    B．pay for his college education
    C．help his partner expand business
    D．do some research
    49．Which of the following is true of Buck?
    A．He put money into the sandwich business.
    B．He was a professor of business administration.
    C．He was studying at the University of Bridgeport.
    D．He rented a storefront for DeLuca.
    50．What can we learn about their first shop?
    A．It stood at an unfavorable palce.
    B．It lowered the prices to promote sales.
    C．It made no profits due to poor management
    D．It lacked control over the quality of sandwiches
    51．They decided to open a second store because they ___    .
    A．had enough money to do it.
    B．had succeeded in their business
    C．wished to meet the increasing demand of customers

    Some people would go through anything just to achieve their dream. Kasia Siwosz is proof. For the final year student on the university women’s tennis team, the road to Berkeley, University of California was met with poor advice and misinformation from her home country and twounsuccessful stops along the way that fell short of expectations.
    Born in Poland, Siwosz began playing tennis at seven years old and developed the skills that helped her earn a top-50 ranking among the ITF Junior division (国际网球联会青少年赛).. Siwosz wanted to do more with her life than just play tennis, which led her to seek chances that would also allow her to obtain a top education. While most who grow up in the U.S. are naturally accustomed to the American tradition of collegiate (大学的) sports, such a custom is not as familiar in a country like Poland. “There’s no collegiate sports in Poland and no culture of sports and academic (学术的) study there. You can only do one, not both,” Siwosz said.
    Her desire to have a quality education led her to America to follow her dream. While Siwosz was talented enough to begin her collegiate tennis career, she could only attend community college because she missed the deadline to apply to four-year schools, mainly due to misinformation provided in her home country of Poland.
    When she had earned all her credits and was able to transfer (转学), Siwosz made the decision to attend Baylor in Texas. Her friends from Poland put in a good word for the university, saying that it was a good fit because there were many international players at Baylor. “I thought it would be a good idea, but it really wasn’t what I thought it would be,” Siwosz said. “I wasn’t happy at Baylor. The level of tennis was high, but the academic standards were no match and I just wanted more.”
    After one year at Baylor, Siwosz’s luck finally began to change when she made the decision to transfer to Berkeley, which was due in large part to Lee, a former Berkeley student. Lee, who is a keen tennis player himself, met Siwosz four years ago in Texas. “I knew she was unhappy there,” he said. “I saw the opportunity for her to come here.” Siwosz visited Lee in Berkeley. “I ended up loving this place and this school,” Siwosz said. “I came here a lot over the summer, I gave it a shot and I ended up with a Berkeley education and a spot on one of the best college tennis teams in the country.”
    小题1:What does “two unsuccessful stops” (Paragraph 1) refer to?
    A．Poland and the U.S.
    B．Baylor and Berkeley.
    C．The community college and Baylor.
    D．The ITF Junior division and the Berkeley tennis team.
    小题2:Why did Siwosz want to leave her homeland for America?
    A．Poland had no culture of sports.
    B．Berkeley had always been her dream university.
    C．She wanted to play tennis and have a good education.
    D．She wanted to improve her tennis skills and get a higher ranking.
    小题3: Why did she leave Baylor?
    A．The level of tennis there was not high.
    B．It was not suitable for international students.
    C．She couldn’t get along with her friends there.
    D．She was not satisfied with the education level there.
    小题4: What is the main idea of the passage?
    A．How Siwosz left Poland.
    B．How Siwosz realized her dream.
    C．How Siwosz became a top tennis player.
    D．How Siwosz transferred from Baylor to Berkeley.

    Every day millions of letters go from one country to another. Letters mailed in Italy are received in Japan. Letters mailed in Canada are received in Africa. On the letters are many different kinds of stamps，bought in different countries．
    The Universal Postal Union helps each letter get to the right place as quickly as possible. It sets up rules about the size and weight of letters，postcards，and small packages（包裹）. It has rules that all countries must follow about international postal rates（费用）．

    In Africa millions of people starved (饿) to death, and two thirds of them were children. Harry Belafonte, a famous singer in America, felt sad when he saw a film about the starving people in Africa. He said to himself, "I should do something to help them. What can I do?" He thought of a plan to gather the stars from the music world and make a special record. The money from the record would help the starving people in Africa.

"We have to be the voice," Stevie Wonere said," to help those people that have lost their future. "A sign was put at the door of the studio: "Please cheek your ego (自我) at the door!"
    At 10 P.M. they began their work. They finally finished recording at 8 A.M. that morning. Just at that moment Diana Ross sat down with tears in her eyes and said, "I just don’ t want this to end!"
    On April 5, more than 800 radio stations all over the world played "We Are The World" at the same time.
    53. What did Harry Belafonte think he should do?
    A. He thought he should tell other people about it.
    B. He thought he should send a lot of food to Africa.
    C. He thought he should ask the government to help them.

    55. What would help the starving people in Africa?
    A. The special record.              B. The money from record.
