[1]Do you feel your life is dependent on fate or luck? Many people do and there are crazy superstitions(迷信)surrounding what you should and shouldn’t on New Year’s Day to get some luck for yourself．And we’re going to need it，because everyone has heard that 2012 may be the end of the World。
[2]Imagine being in a car．The driver decides where to go and how fast to get there．The passenger goes along for the ride．Do you want to or the passenger in your own life? Do you want to hide and hope that 2012 really isn’t the end of the world，or do you want to design a new beginning?
[3] This isn’t the first prediction of the end of the world and it won’t be the last．The year 2000 was supposed to destroy computer technology, bringing the world to a stop．All this is futurology---the study of the end of the world or the“world to come”---which I think, personally, is a better translation.
[4] Translation is also the problem behind the idea that the Mayans(玛雅人)said the world would end in 2012．The troub1e with translation from the ancient Mayans is that there are many words to choose from and negative words sell a lot more magazines, newspapers and TV shows．There’s a phrase in journalism in the West。“If it bleeds，it leads。” In other words，bad news sells better．
[5]To me，endings mean beginnings and new chances。The reality we’re suffering through in the world fight now needs a change．Wars，the failing economy, global warming---the list goes on and on．People tend to change through insight(洞察力)or crisis and there are enough of both right now to lead in a completely new age filled with peace，economic well-being，health and joy both globally and personally．But，we can’t just wait for it to happen．So create goals this year that arc positive，future focused，specific and measurable．We’re all the drivers in the world to come.

[1]One Friday night in May 2010, Oliver and Ione Kleven heard angry shouts coming from their front lawn(草坪). Ione, 65, stepped onto the porch（门廊） and saw two men in dark clothes struggling with something on the ground—right where she and her grandson had planted a flower bed the weekend before.
[2] “Go fight somewhere else!” she shouted, worried her plants would get damaged. At the sound of her voice, the face of a boy appeared from beneath the two men. He looked 14. “They’re trying to kill me!” the boy screamed. Ione ran toward them and, without hesitation, caught the boy’s arm, pulling him out.
[3] “Leave him alone!” she shouted. When the men stood up, Ione saw what looked like a sharp object in one man’s hand. When she turned back toward the boy, he was moaning（呻吟） in pain and holding his stomach. The attackers began to move in on the boy again when Ione’s husband shouted: “Get lost!” The two men walked quickly and quietly across the street and drove off in a dark car.
[4]“I have to get to the hospital!” the boy cried. He lifted his shirt, and Ione could see a bloody wound on his stomach. Oliver hugged the trembling(发抖的) boy while Ione caught her cell phone and car keys inside the house. She handed the phone to Oliver. “Call 911,” she told him. “I’m going after them.” Ione took off but was unable to find the car.
[5]The Klevens then learned what had happened . Earlier that night, as the boy waited for his parents to pick him up from the high school across the street from the Klevens’ house, two men approached and demanded his wallet. When he refused, one of the men hit him in the face. The boy ran across the street. The men caught up with him, and one hurt him in the back and stomach with a sharp knife. That’s when Ione stepped in.
56. When was Ione born? (within 2 words)
57. Why did Ione shout at the two struggling men? (within 8 words)
58. Whom does the underlined word “him” (in Para.3) probably refer to? (within 3 words)
59. Why did Ione hand the phone to Oliver? (within 8 words.)
60. What was the boy doing when the two men approached him? (within 10 words.)
