    The Price of a Dream

    　　I grew up poor—living with my wonderful mother. We had little money, but plenty of love and attention. I was 　16　 and energetic. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, he could still 　17　 a dream.

    My dream was 　18　. By the time I was sixteen, I started playing baseball. I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and 　19　 anything that moved on the football field.

    I was also  20　. My high school coach was John, who not only believed in me, but also taught me 　21　 to believe in myself. He 　22　 me the difference between having a dream and remaining true to that dream. One particular 　23　 with Coach John changed my life forever.

    　　A friend recommended me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket—money for a new bike, new clothes and the 　24　 of savings for a house for my mother. Then I realized I would have to 　25　 up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell John I wouldn’t be playing.

    　　When I told John, he was 　26　 as I expected him to be. “You have your whole life to work,” He shouted. “Your 　27　 days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them.” I stood before him with my head 　28　, trying to think of the right　29　 　that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his 　30　 in me.

    　　“How much are you going to make at this job, son?” He asked. “3.5 dollars an hour,” I replied.

    　　“Well,” he asked, “is $ 3.5 an hour the price of a dream?”

    　　That simple question made  31    for me the difference between  32 　something at once and having a 　33　. I decided myself to play sports that summer and the ___34    year after I finished high school, I was hired by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play baseball, and was 　35　 a $ 20,000 contract. Finally, I bought my mother the house of my dream!

    Dear Jose ,

    　　You have asked me for suggestions on how to get along in the United States．It is difficult to give advice, but I have found the following“dos”and“don'ts”helpful．

    　　As a 　　1　　 , it isn't easy to find anyone to 　　2　　 in a big city．However, here are some suggestions．First get or borrow 　　3　　 !Walk him several times a day!Americans love dogs and usually stop 　　4　　 to anyone with a dog．Then, try to eat in a cafeteria(食堂)．People generally 　　5　　 the same tables and will sometimes talk to you 　　6　　 they see that you are a(an)　　7　　．Next, take your dirty clothes to a laundry(洗衣店)!It takes about an hour to wash and dry, and many people 　　8　　 there．They often pass the 　　9　　 talking to the other customers．　　10　　 ask for information from a woman, if you are a 　　11　　; and from a man, if you are a woman!It seems to get 　　12　　 results for a reason I can't understand．Learn the 　　13　　 “Please”, “Thank you”, and“You're welcome”before you come and use them all the time!They usually work like magic(魔术)．

    　　There are some things you shouldn't．Don't tell the truth when people 　　14　　 “How are you?”They only 　　15　　 the answer to be“Fine”．Never ask people their 　　16　　 －especially women!Everyone wants to be young．Don't tell heavy people they are 　　17　　．Tell them they are losing 　　18　　．Everyone here wants to be 　　19　　．Don't be late for appointment!When someone says six o'clock, 　　20　　 be there by six．Americans respect time and expect everyone to be“on time”．

    　　Above all, don't worry!Just follow my advice and bring a lot of money and you will get along．I hope I have been of some help to you．

    阅读理解

    　　At Denver there was an crowd of passengers into the coaches(车厢)on the eastbound B．＆M．express．In one coach there sat a very pretty young woman dressed in elegant taste and surrounded by all the luxurious comforts of an experienced traveler．Among the newcomers were two young men, one of handsome presence with a bold, frank face expression and manner; the other a ruffled, glum-faced person, heavily built and roughly dressed．The two were handcuffed(拷上手铐)together．

    　　As they passed down the aisle of the coach the only available seat offered was a reversed one facing the attractive young woman．Here the linked couple seated themselves．The young woman's glance fell upon them with a distant, swift disinterest; then with a lovely smile brightening her face and a tender pink tingeing(稍加染色，影响)her rounded cheeks, she held out a little gray-gloved hand．When she spoke her voice, full, sweet, and deliberate, proclaimed that its owner was accustomed to speak and be heard．

    　　"Well, Mr．Easton, if you will make me speak first, I suppose I must．Don't you ever recognize old friends when you meet them in the West?"

    　　The younger man aroused himself sharply at the sound of her voice, seemed to struggle with a slight embarrassment which he threw off instantly, and then clasped her fingers with his left hand．

    　　"It's Miss Fairchild," he said, with a smile．"I'll ask you to excuse the other hand; "it's otherwise engaged just at present．"

    　　He slightly raised his right hand, bound at the wrist by the shining "bracelet" to the left one of his companion．The glad look in the girl's eyes slowly changed to a bewildered horror．The glow faded from her cheeks．Her lips parted in a vague(含糊，犹豫), relaxing distress．Easton, with a little laugh, as if amused, was about to speak again when the other forestalled him．The glum-faced man had been watching the girl's face expression with veiled glances from his keen, shrewd eyes．

    　　"You'll excuse me for speaking, miss, but, I see you're acquainted with(认识，熟悉)the officer here．If you'll ask him to speak a word for me when we get to the pen(围栏，监狱)he'll do it, and it'll make things easier for me there．He's taking me to Leavenworth prison．It's seven years for cheating．"

    　　"Oh!" said the girl, with a deep breath and returning color．"So that is what you are doing out here? An officer!"

    　　"My dear Miss Fairchild," said Easton, calmly, "I had to do something．Money has a way of taking wings with itself, and you know it takes money to keep step with our crowd in Washington．I saw this opening(通道)in the West, and--well, an officer isn't quite as high a position as that of ambassador, but--"

    　　"The ambassador," said the girl, warmly, "doesn't call any more．I needn't ever have done so．You ought to know that．And so now you are one of these brave Western heroes, and you ride and shoot and go into all kinds of dangers．That's different from the Washington life．You have been missed from the old crowd．"

    　　The girl's eyes, fascinated, went back, widening a little, to rest upon the glittering handcuffs．

    　　"Don't you worry about them, miss," said the other man．"All officers handcuff themselves to their prisoners to keep them from getting away．Mr．Easton knows his business．"

    　　"Will we see you again soon in Washington?" asked the girl．

    　　"Not soon, I think," said Easton．"My butterfly days are over, I fear．"

    　　"I love the West," said the girl irrelevantly．Her eyes were shining softly．She looked away out the car window．She began to speak truly and simply without the gloss of style and manner："Mamma and I spent the summer in Denver．She went home a week ago because father was slightly ill．I could live and be happy in the West．I think the air here agrees with me．Money isn't everything．But people always misunderstand things and remain stupid--"

    　　"Say, officer," shouted the glum-faced man．"This isn't quite fair．I'm needing a drink, and haven't had a smoke all day．Haven't you talked long enough? Take me in the smoker now, won't you? I'm half dead for a pipe．"

    　　The bound travelers rose to their feet, Easton with the same slow smile on his face．

    　　"I can't deny a require for tobacco," he said, lightly．"It's the one friend of the unfortunate．Good-bye, Miss Fairchild．Duty calls, you know．" He held out his hand for a farewell．

    　　"It's too bad you are not going East," she said, reclothing herself with manner and style．"But you must go on to Leavenworth, I suppose?"

    　　"Yes," said Easton, "I must go on to Leavenworth．"

    　　The two men sidled down the aisle into the smoker．

    　　The two passengers in a seat near by had heard most of the conversation．Said one of them："That officer is a good sort of man．Some of these Western fellows are all right．"

    　　"Pretty young to hold an office like that, isn't he?" asked the other．

    　　"Young!" exclaimed the first speaker, "why－Oh! Didn't you catch on? Say－did you ever know an officer to handcuff a prisoner to his right hand?"

    (1)
