Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own. My mom was one of those people.
My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life, “Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it.”
At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to badly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school — walking on my own!
When the Great Depression (大萧条) hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support the both of us. At that moment, I was determined never to be poor again.
Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra $2 for each child. That was too expensive for the average American family. I told my wife that I was going to open a motel (汽车旅馆) for families that would never charge extra for children. There were plenty of doubters at that time.
Not surprisingly, mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of challenges. But with my mother’s words deeply rooted in my soul, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world — Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1, 759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $ 1 billion a year.
You may not have started out life in the best situation. But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.

科目:高中英语 来源:2014-2015学年四川省高三5月月考英语试卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解
We are more dependent on technology now than ever before-and for good reason. Our cell phones have more capabilities than laptops did 5 years ago. Technology is quickly becoming faster, more reliable, and yes, more portable.
Because of this, now is a great time to look into purchasing a laptop. Laptops now have the same computing power as desktops and are the least expensive they’ve ever been. If you’ re constantly on the go, it makes sense to have one.
We feature a lot of hot tech deals here at MakeUseOf, but if you’re in the market for a laptop, I've collected the top two laptop computers for you. I only looked at laptops priced under $1,000 that had at least 4GB of RAM, a dual-core processor, and came with Windows 7. Let’s see what we camp up with!
1. Sony Vaio FW 560F/T
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo P7450/2. 13GHz
Memory: 6 GB(8GB Max)
Hard Drive: 500GB
This Sony Vaio laptop has a lot of features that make it very attractive. With a 16-inch screen, it is very slim. It has Blu-ray playback and decent gaming performance, although it doesn’t support 1080p. It makes for a very good multimedia notebook.
2. Samsung NP-R580-JSB1US
Processor: Intel Core i5 15-430M/2. 26GHz
Memory: 4 GB
Hard Drive: 500GB
This laptop comes with a Core i5 processor, NVIDIA graphics, and Blu-ray support. I’ve read that the touch-pad is uncomfortable at times, but the processing power and graphics make it a great laptop with decent battery life.
1.What is the normal memory of Sony Vaio FW560F/T?
A. 8G B. 5GB C. 4GB D. 6GB
2.What’s the similarity of Sony Vaio FW560F/T and Samsung NP-R580-JSB1US?
A. Processor B. Memory
C. Hard drive D. Features
3.The underlined phrase “ makes sense” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by____.
A. is dependent B. is meaningful
C. is reliable D. is portable
4.Which of the following is true?
A. Our cell phones have more capabilities than laptops did 3 years ago.
B. Laptops now are the most expensive they’ve ever been.
C. Sony Vaio laptop is very attractive with a 16-inch screen.
D. Sony Vaio laptop supports 1080p.
