When Colonel Harland Sanders retired at the age of 65, he had little to show for himself, except an old Caddie roadster, a $105 monthly pension (退休金) check ,and a recipe (秘方) for chicken．

Knowing he couldn’t live on his pension, he took his chicken recipe in hand, got behind the wheel of his van （货车）,and set out to make his fortune．His first plan was to sell his chicken recipe to restaurant owners, who would in turn give him a residual（酬金）for every piece of chicken they sold—5 cents per chicken．The first restaurateur he called on turned him down．

So did the second．

So did the third．

In fact, the first 1,008 sales calls Colonel Sanders made ended in rejection．Still, he continued to call on owners as he traveled across the USA, sleeping in his car to save money．Prospect number 1,009 gave him first “yes”．

After two years of making daily sales he had signed up a total of five restaurants．Still the Colonel pressed on , knowing that he had a great chicken recipe and that someday the idea would catch on ．

Of course, you know how the story ends．The idea did catch on．By 1963 the Colonel had 600 restaurants across the country selling his secret recipe of Kentucky Fried Chicken （with ll herbs and spices ）．

In 1964 he was bought out by future Kentucky governor John Brown．Even though the sale made him a multi-millionaire, he continued to represent and promote KFC until his death in 1990．

Every day, in all kinds of weather, a lot of men and women go jogging (running slowly). Why has jogging become so popular? Most people start jogging because they hear it is a very good form of exercise. Jogging makes the heart strong and helps people control their weight or stay slim. If you keep jogging regularly, you needn’t take pills or skip meals to lose weight. Jogging can also make you feel better about yourself.

Donald Robbins is 42 years old and works in an office. He began jogging a few years ago because he felt he was overweight. At first he could only run about 300 meters, but now he can run a marathon---over 42 kilometers.

Eat healthier. Exercise twice a week. Read more books. Lose weight. We make the same resolutions every year. But most of us fail, and quit after only a few days or weeks．Even the most successful among us, those who have climbed to the top of their fields, crash and burn when it comes to personal change. For example, President Barack Obama has struggled with his smoking habit．        

       So why is change so challenging? Are we wired in a way that keeps us from making changes? And do we need the support of others to reach our goals, or can we go it alone?

       Professionals who help people make-changes in their lives suggest that the change is determined not by one’s surroundings, but one's mind．Beginning with small goals or steps usually leads to a bigger pay-off later, they say．And trying to make a change is easier with support from a cheery group of friends, family, or co-workers with shared goals．But they caution that the experience is different for everyone．

       "People are more likely to make positive changes in their lives not only when their friends do, but when their friends of friends do, and when their friends of friends of friends do," said Nicholas Christakis, a professor of medical sociology at Harvard University．"Social networks have this interesting property of magnifying (放大) everything, and so taking advantage of your social network ties can result in a magnification of your own efforts.

       Johnny Augustin understands that well．His goal was to reduce 30 pounds from his 237-pound frame．But the change didn’t come easily．He said "I'm a huge procrastinator．There is a desire but I just kept putting it off．I didn't get to do it until the summer．"However, Augustin got inspired when he saw his older brother working out．Today, Augustin weighs 190 pounds．        

       Having a positive attitude is one of the keys to making a successful change, according to Judy Zerafa, author of several books based on how people can improve their lives．She emphasized the importance of believing in yourself—and having positive habits, creative imagination, and persistence—to make change happen．"Success in overcoming any self-defeating behavior particularly those related to health, finances, relationships and weight loss is almost guaranteed if you learn to reprogram the subconscious images in that part of the mind,” Zerafa said in an article.

       A．friendship plays an important role in our daily lives

       B．people are better able to make changes when they make changes with others

       C．friends can easily change our minds about something．

       A．have great determination to make a change 

       B．have no desire to do something great                                      

       C．put off work especially out of laziness    

       D．have habitual carelessness and laziness

       A．the reason why change is so hard       

       B．the difficulty we have in making a change
