As I looked at the memorial，I thought about ________ terrible disaster it was for the people in Nanjing then and ________ they were to fight the Japanese invaders.

A．how；how? B．what a；how

C．what；what? D．how；what

It's a small gas station that has snacks, drinks, cigarettes, and candies. The young man behind the counter knows his   __36__   by name and what they normally want to buy. He treats children and adults with equal   __37__. He reads science fiction behind the counter when business is   __38__.

One day, three people rushed in and grabbed（抓住） food off the shelves as fast as they could,   __39__   not intending to pay for it. He hit the “panic button” , then went over the counter（柜台） and   __40__   the front door. It was obvious that they were homeless, and  equally obvious that they weren't going   __41__   with their ill­gotten（非法获得的） gains. They    __42__   the food and simply crowded together in panic（惊慌地）—knowing the police were   __43__   the way.

Imagine what they must have felt like when they were told they didn't have to steal if they were that    __44__. “We have food in the back, expired (到期)but still   __45__   to eat. If you need food, you   __46__   have some.” 

They were told to   __47__   what they had dropped and put it back, and then asked to straighten out（清理） the mess. They were doing just that    __48__    the police arrived. The officers were told the situation was under control and the police were no longer   __49__.

This wasn't what they had    __50__. They were being treated as human beings who could right the wrong they'd done. Shocked, they quickly followed orders to take turns and use the restroom to clean up.

Soon three   __51__   people walked out with all the    __52__   their arms could hold. They were   __53__   that，if they needed to come back again, they were to ask and not just grab.

And then the young man went back to read until the next customer came in. He would be the    __54__ person in the world to claim he was a hero. But he gave three people something they were in desperate need of—a   __55__amount of self­respect and a little bit of hope.

“ Are you too stupid to do anything right？”These words—said by a woman to a little boy who was obviously her son—were spoken   21    he had walked away from her．They boy returned, his eyes down-cast.

Not a   22     moment, perhaps,   23     small moments sometimes last a very long time．And a few words—though they mean   24    at the time to the people who say them—can have great   25    .

I recently heard a story from a man named Malcolm Dalkoff．For the last 24 years he has been a professional   26    ．Here is what he told me:

As a boy in Rock Island, Dalkoff was terribly   27    ．He had few   28    and no self-confidence．One day, his English teacher, Ruth Brach, gave the class an assignment（作业）．The students had been reading To Kill a Mockingbird．Now they were to write their own chapter that would   29     the last chapter of the novel.

Dalkoff wrote his chapter and turned it   30   ．Today he can not recall anything   31 

about the chapter he wrote, or what   32    Mrs．Branch gave him．What he does remember is the four words Mrs．Brach wrote in margin（空白处）of the paper：“This is   33   writing.”

    Four words．They   34     his life.

    “   35     I read those words, I had no idea of who I was or   36   I was going to be.”he said.“After reading her note, I went home and wrote a short story, something I had always been   37    of doing but never believed I could do.”

         Over the rest of that year in school, he wrote many short stories and always brought them to school for Mrs．Brach to evaluate．She was   38     , tough and honest.“She was just what I

   39   .”Dalkoff said.

         His confidence   40   ．Dalkoff believes that none of this would have happened if that woman had not written those four words in the margin of his paper.

Today, when there are many top graduates looking for top jobs, graduates can differentiate(区别) themselves by obtaining a double major or even a double degree. Increasingly, employers are looking for individuals who are not only competent and intelligent, but who have different skill sets and who are knowledgeable in many areas. Part of the appeal to employers is that your extra work demonstrates a willingness to take on difficult tasks. Additionally, if your majors overlap (重叠), you are able to show potential employers that you have both breadth  and depth of knowledge.
By studying for a double major, although you will be studying for only one degree, you will be focusing on two related and integrated subjects that complement (补充) each other. Classes overlap between the majors, meaning fewer classes are required than with a double degree, so it is easier to finish within four years.
In contrast, with the more rigorous (严格的) double degree, you will be studying for two different degrees in two completely different areas of study. Although pursuing such a course of study allows students to complete two wholly separate degrees in less time than if they were to earn them separately, many strong students still find it incredibly difficult to complete in four or five years.
If you are committed to a double major/degree, it is wise to do a little bit of planning. Some students try to find two courses of studies that are related, while others seek to round out their academic studies by choosing two completely unrelated fields.
For double majors, common pairings include: (i) economics and a foreign language; (ii) political science or government and journalism; (iii) economics and psychology.
For double degrees, common pairings include: (i) engineering and a business program such as finance or accounting; (ii) engineering and economics.
【小题1】What do employers think of the graduates with different skill sets and knowledge in many areas?
