The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as

28、 a test. "You are employed" he said, " Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start." The man replied :"But I don't have a computer, neither an email." "I'm sorry", said the HR manager

29、:" If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job.'" The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only ten dollars in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10kg tomato crate.

30、He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with sixty dollars. The man realized that he could survive in this way, and started to go every day earlier, and return late. Thus,

31、his money doubled or tripled everyday. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles. 5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers(零售商) in the US . He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance. He called

32、 an insurance broker（經(jīng)紀人）, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his email. The man replied: "I don't have an email.'" The broker answered curiously: "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can yo

36、BBecause I will be away for a few days after Spring Break, I am writing this during the actual holiday, when I can use time to catch up on a number of purely administrative (管理的) items. First of all, you should have received the letter I sent out on April 2 advising of the transition (過渡) arrangemen

37、ts to new leadership at ISM (International School of Moscow). In that letter I pointed out that Dr. Paul Malone will be arriving in Moscow on Monday, May 4th, and that I will work with him during that week to ensure smooth transition. My last day at ISM will be Friday, May 8th. Several people have a

38、sked me why I required Dr. Malone to come early. There are many problems facing ISM at the moment which have major implications (影響) for the future, and it makes sense for the new director to come aboard before the end of the school year. This will give him the chance to play a major role in the pla

39、nning process for 20142015 and beyond. The fact that Paul Malone is able to arrive in early May is good for the school. I have been working closely with him, and will do everything possible to see that he can move in easily when I leave. From here I will go to Hong Kong for a couple of weeks to spen

40、d time in my new situation, and then I will return to the United States for a few weeks vacation. In the most recent edition of the Compass(a kind of paper of ISM), I wrote briefly what I consider to be the major challenge for ISM in the future. I am sure that the new leadership of the school will b

41、e able to face those challenges in an active manner, which will ensure a strong future for the school. I shall certainly watch the progress of the school with interest. The results of the school for the past few years have been quite outstanding, and I fully expect that level of performance to conti

42、nue. 60. We can infer from the text that the writer was the _ of ISM. A. director B. employee C. teacher D. student 61. Why should Dr. Malone come to ISM early? A. To work closely with the author. B. To do everything possible for the school. C. To move in easily when the author leaves. D. To work wi

43、th the author for a few days and make a future plan. 62. The underlined word “situation” in the third paragraph means _. A. place B. job C. appointment D. condition 63. From the text, we learn that _. A. Paul Malone is a capable man B. the writer is a best friend of Paul Malones C. Paul Malone will

44、work with the writer for several years D. the writer will do his best to help Paul Malone to work well at ISM C The other morning on the subway I sat next to an attractive young blonde woman who was reading something on her iPad. She was very well-dressed, carrying a Prada bag with tastefully applie

45、d make-up. Indeed, she had an unmistakable air of wealth, material success and even authority. I suspected she worked as a highly-paid Wall Street lawyer or stockbroker or something of that sort. So, I was curious to see what she was so focused on. The Wall Street Journal perhaps? The Economist? Qui

46、te the contrary; rather, she was concentrating on a romance novel. Then I realized that I have known many women who love romance novelssmart, attractive, successful, “l(fā)iberated,” modem females who nonetheless find some kind of deep satisfaction and thrill from those hyper-romantic, artificial and ex

47、tremely unrealistic tales of handsome, manly heroes falling in love with virginal women, enduring a series of adventures, then no doubt having a happy ending. These romance stories are to literature what hot dogs are to fine food. Yet, the genre(體裁) remains enormously popular. Consider some of these

48、 surprising statistics from the good folks at the Romance Writers of America (RWA): *More than 9,000 romance titles were released last year, with sales of about $1.44 billion (more than triple the revenues generated by classic literary fiction). *More than 90 percent of the market are women (okay, t

49、hats not at all surprising). * Readers are typically women between the ages 30 and 54 who are themselves involved in a romantic relationship (betraying the stereotype that only lonely women long for these tales of love and adventure). *Almost 40 percent of romance book consumers have an annual incom

50、e of between $50,000 and $99,900 (placing them firmly in the middle class). I had thought that romance novels accounted for a very small share of the literary market, so I was quite surprised that this part has such enormous popularity. But I must wonder why so many womenforty years after the womens

51、 liberation movement continue to indulge in the fanciful tales? Im not sure if it represents a kind of “rejection” of the womens liberation movement, but clearly something is missing in the lives of contemporary ladies. A romance author named Donna Hatch who focuses on the Regency period (early 19th

52、 century Britain) explained the appeal of such books this way: “When a lady entered the room, gentlemen stood, doffed their hats, offered an arm, bowed, and a hundred other little things I wish men still did today. But they were also very athletic; they hunted, raced, boxed, rode horses. They were m

53、anly. Strong. Noble. Honorable. And that is why I love them!” Mrs. Hatch may have expressed the secret desires and attitudes of untold millions of her peers-that is, in the early 21st century, have women grown tired of the burdens and expectations that the “freedoms” they have gained give them? Is this a rejection of modem feminism? Do women long for days of old whe
