Trucker Gerlock traveled hundreds of thousands of miles with his dog,Holly,who came with him on every route-including his last one.While driving near Dallas,Texas,on the job,the 59-year-old Marylander crashed into a concrete column.Gerlock was killed instantly.Looking in the back of the truck,though,rescue drivers found one survivor.
   Rescue workers cut the Chesapeake Bay retriever(切薩皮克海灣尋回犬)-practically untouched-out of the back of the truck,where she'd been sleeping."It's amazing that anything survived," Sandy Nordhoff,friend of Gerlock,told The Kent County News.
   Unsure what happened to Holly,Gerlock's friends from his town of Rock Hall,Maryland,made numerous calls and emails to agencies in order to find out where the dog was.Eventually,they found out she had been staying in Dallas Animal Services shelter and a foster family had taken her in for Thanksgiving.The Rock Hall locals hatched a plan to get her home.
   Joe Creighton and Sandy's husband,Russell Nordhoff,both lifelong friends of Gerlock,volunteered to make the 2,800-mile trip from Rock Hall to Dallas and back,which took two days each way.The friends borrowed Gerlock's pickup truck for the road,so Holly would feel more comfortable on the journey home,according to The Kent County News.
   Back in Rock Hall,some of Gerlock's friends adopted Holly.Ever since,the dog has been a town icon(偶像),making an appearance in almost every town parade.
   "The outpouring of love shown towards Gerlock and Holly was heartwarming," Rock Hall resident Jamie Elburn tells Reader's Digest."It shows how the companionship of 'man's best friend' and simple kindness can overcome even the most difficult situation!"

  • 1.One is not born able to speak a language.One is born able to make a noise.I have heard babies cry in America and in China.I can't tell any difference.But when I hear someone from America speak English and hear someone speak Chinese,I can tell you there are a lot of differences.
    I believe a common(普遍的) problem with Chinese students' learning English is that they were not taught to think in English. They have an idea spoken in English and want to translate the idea into Chinese,then they think in Chinese of the proper reply and translate it into English.After a long period of speaking the language,one begins to think in the foreign language naturally.You will learn faster if you begin to think in English at the very beginning of your study.Many students ask me:What can I do to improve my spoken English?
       My reply is:The more English you speak,the better English you will speak.There are many things you can do to improve your spoken English.Of course,the best way is to live where English is spoken as a language of the country.

    (1)The cries of American and Chinese babies are
    .
    A.different
    B.the same

  • 2.A decade ago,at the end of my first semester teaching at Captain,my student Jack stopped by for office hours.He sat down and burst into tears.My mind started cycling through a list of events that could make a college junior cry:His girlfriend had broken up with him;he had been accused of cheating in exams;he forgot to turn in papers before the deadline. "I just got my first A minus," he said.
       Year after year,I watch in depression as students are crazy about getting straight A's.Some sacrifice their health;a few have even tried to charge their school after failure.They believe top marks are a ticket to elite graduate schools and rewarding job opportunities.I was one of them.I started college with the goal of graduating with a GPA of 4.0.It would be a reflection of my brainpower and willpower,showing that I had the right things to succeed.But I was wrong.
       The evidence is clear:Across industries,research shows that the association between grades and job performance is modest in the first year after college and insignificant within a handful of years.For example,at Microsoft,once employees are two or three years out of college,their grades have nothing to do with their performance.(Of course,it must be said that if you got D's,you probably wouldn't end up at Microsoft.)
       Academic grades rarely assess qualities like creativity,leadership and teamwork skills,or social,emotional and political intelligence.Yes,straight A students master large amounts of information and reproduce it in exams.But career success is rarely about finding the right solution to a problem-it's more about finding the right problem to solve.This might explain why Steve Jobs finished high school with a GPA of 2.65,and Martin Luther King Jr.got only one A in his four years at Morehouse.

    (1)Why did Jack feel sad?

    A.His girlfriend abandoned him.
    B.He was caught cheating in exams.
    C.He failed to get straight A's.
    D.He didn't hand in his paper in time.
    (2)What did the author once believe?

    A.It was wrong to care too much about marks.
    B.Failure was schools' fault.
    C.Marks didn't reflect willpower and brainpower.
    D.Top marks meant well-paid job offers.
    (3)Why are the employees at Microsoft mentioned?

    A.To indicate academic performance is important.
    B.To stress the company values employees with top marks.
    C.To introduce successful examples in the technology industry.
    D.To show academic excellence isn't a strong predictor of career performance.
    (4)What should people focus more on to succeed?

    A.How to solve a problem.
    B.What problem to be solved.
    C.How to be a creative leader.
    D.What to do with detailed information.
