  My father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced:“Get up.You’re going with me to cut grass.”

  The idea that my father actually thought I was big enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited.From sunup to sundown my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large yards in a rich part of Atlanta, Georgia.By the end of the day I was tired out, but I felt good.I had put in a hard day’s labor and had earned $6.

  One day my father found some leaves I’d missed and pulled me aside.“Clear away these leaves, ” he said firmly, “and don’t make me have to do it again, ” The message was clear.Today I value the importance of doing a job right the first time.It will never fail to impress the person you are working for.

  After two years my father told me and my brother that he felt we were old enough to do lawns(草坪)on our own.Every Saturday during our last two years of high school, we set out early in the morning with the same desire and drive we had gained while working under our father.

  Taking care of lawns was not exciting or high-paying, but that didn’t matter.It taught me that any job is a good job and that whatever I was paid was more than I had before.

  A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live on a forty-hour-a-week minimum(最低的)pay.“My father never worked just forty hours a week and neither have I, ”I replied.“If you’re only working forty hours, you probably don’t want to do any better than you’re doing.”

  In every job I’ve held from doing lawns to washing dishes, I have learned something that helped me in my next job.If you look hard enough, you can learn from any job you do.

信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

请阅读下列应用文和相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。

A: Taking care of yourself is not being selfish. By caring enough to treat your body well, you will be in better shape to take care of those around you. No one can take care of your health except yourself;

B: Believe in yourself and your ability. Have a “can-do”attitude. Make a list of successful changes that you have made in the past. It is easier to achieve a goal when you are optimistic. Use humor and laugh off occasional lapses (过失). Have confidence that you can get back on track with your healthy routine.

C: Seek out a friend or co-worker who will make you feel comfortable. You will find out making friends is a happy thing in the world. Regular phone calls, emails or visits over coffee could help you keep a good contact with them. Perhaps your cheerleader could become your exercise buddy.

D: Reward yourself as you make simple changes that in the end will result in achieving your overall goal. Celebration is part of successful change. Create a list of incentives that will keep you motivated.

E: Adopt eating and physical activity habits that can become part of your lifestyle. Have a backup plan for those days when your plans to eat well and be active are challenged. If you can’t walk due to the weather, have an exercise video to use. If you have no time to pack a healthy lunch, choose a small fast food sandwich and side salad.

F: Go on a trip. Work and family are two most important things in people’s lives. People try to tackle the two things at once, but most of them fail. Just as an old saying goes: People who know how to rest know how to work. Go out with your family and have a good time.

请阅读以下个人信息,然后匹配信息:

1.Tommy, a computer engineer, doesn’t believe his working capability. Though he works hard, he never gets praise from his boss.

2.Jack dislikes going home after a full day's work. He says that it makes him feel lonely.
