Yesterday I was fortunate enough to find one more person in our world who is kind and caring. It was about 11:00 p.m. 16 my telephone rang. The caller ID showed the number of a Best Western Hotel. 17 , I would ignore this type of call. For some reason, 18 , I went ahead and answered.
The man on the other end asked if I knew Samual K. I 19 , as he is my 91 – year – old grandfather. Still not 20 why I was the one that had been called, the caller went on to tell me that I was the only 21 listed in the phone book. He said his name was Mason and that he was the 22 at the Best Western Hotel. The 23 was that grandpa had no money with him, and that he couldn’t 24 any phone numbers, so Mason called all over the state trying to get help.
Grandpa told me that he just wanted me to tell Mason that he is a (n) 25 guy and would pay the money once he got home. But the man in charge there was 26 because my grandfather seemed to be 27 . He had been going somewhere else when he got on the wrong bus and 28 100 miles from home.
Not wanting to turn him away and not wanting the police to 29 him to the police station, Mason, 30 any normal duty, not only took the time to 31 me, but also charged just $ 39 so that grandpa could 32 safely and comfortably overnight. (The rooms normally rent for about $ 140!) Besides, he had the staff of that hotel all 33 him until my uncle was able to drive the 100 miles to pick him up!
So, it’s just one more piece of 34 that proves that there are still good people out there; wherever you go, there is always one who 35 .

(B)
British author JK Rowling was at the release of her latest Harry Potter book called “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” at the Natural History Museum in London, Friday July 20, 2007.
J.K. Rowling has been spotted at cafes in Scotland working on a detective novel, a British newspaper reported Saturday.
The Sunday Times newspaper quoted Ian Rankin, a fellow author and neighbor of Rowling's, as saying the creator of the "Harry Potter" books is turning to crime fiction.
"My wife spotted her writing her Edinburgh criminal detective novel," the newspaper quoted Rankin as telling a reporter at an Edinburgh literary festival.
"It is great that she has not abandoned writing or Edinburgh cafes," said Rankin, who is known for his own police novels set in the historic Scottish city.
Rowling famously wrote initial drafts of the Potter story in the Scottish city's cafes. Back then, she was a struggling single mother who wrote in cafes to save on the heating bill at home.
Now she's Britain's richest woman - worth $1 billion, according to Forbes magazine - and her seven Potter books have sold more than 335 million copies worldwide.
In an interview with The Associated Press last month, Rowling said she believed she was unlikely to repeat the success of the Potter series, but confirmed she had plans to work on new books.
"I'll do exactly what I did with Harry - I'll write what I really want to write," Rowling said.

根据短文内容,从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。
1.Nowadays more and more foreign enterprises and companies are no longer relying on interviews for recruitment(招募). Years of studying interviewing has made it clear that it is not a very objective process. Personnel officers often hire the person they like best or even the one they think most physically attractive. Looking good is no guarantee of doing the job well.
2.To get a more objective view,many companies are also using psychological tests,to hire both for relatively routine job and for positions at senior levels of management. It is impossible to say how many employers use tests,but estimates of test sales in the U.K.for 2001 were over one million.
3.Recruitment can involve steps in two ways. Step 1 is always the same:job application. The company decides whether you might be suitable based on your qualifications and your previous job experience. Step 2 can be screening. A specific test is given at this stage to rule out those who might not be worth interviewing. Some large employers use tests—especially IQ based tests precisely to eliminate the unsuitable. Only those who pass Step 2 go to the interview. Step 2 can also be testing and interview combined. If the company thinks you might be suitable after looking at your application,they ask you to come to be tested and to be interviewed. It is seen very much as part of the same step.
4.Tests claim to be scientific and objective. A large body of research has shown that interviews by themselves are not very reliable as a method of selection. People's judgments are often very subjective:whether they like the look of someone counts for more than almost anything else. But reliable and valid tests can offer rapid and more objective information about wouldbe employees. If a candidate talks well in an interview but his test results suggest that he is a careless person who cannot concentrate,and employer is likely to think twice about hiring him.
5.Taking a serious test for a job is rather different from taking a gamelike test. You can spend just a little time answering questions of that kind of test,and you can deny the answers and say they are not accurate. But you can not go to a serious test without enough preparation since you can not afford to be denied and eliminated again and again. What can you do to do justice to yourself in tests?Here are three tips:Understand,Analyze,Practice.
