三．阅读理解
Passage A
I had two jobs growing up and they all helped shape my life.
When I was about 12, I started caddying (当球童) at a nearby country club. All the kids in the neighborhood did it, and I liked it a lot. I go to watch people who were generally pretty wealthy. They were businessmen and doctors. I would listen to them talking about things and see how they behaved with each other. It was like a fly on the wall at a meeting.
The second job was at a shoe store. I constantly met people from all walks of life and the challenge was exciting. I'd start bringing them different kinds of shoes and get right down there
and put them on their feet. If they didn't like a certain shoe, I always tried to be thinking ahead to a pair they might like better. It was like stepping up to the plate in a baseball game. Every time someone walked into that store, I was going to bat and taking a swing. I never wanted to let a customer get out of that store without buying a pair of shoes to his satisfaction.
This job helped teach me an important business lesson: You have to take risks in business. If you take a risk and fail, get up to bat and swing again.

Passage B
An Extraordinary Change of Direction
Molly Wilson had been a dancer and a mother for many years when she decided to sail round the world to raise money for charity.
As a child she had trained as a ballet dancer, but at 15 she had grown too tall for classical ballet, so she became a member of a pop dance team.
She got married, and after she had children she retired from show business to bring them up. They grew up, and when they were 18 they left home.
She says, ―When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I was bored because the children had left home. He was also worried because I had never sailed before. I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race. They had taken part in it, but
they had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia. I wanted to do the whole
ten-month journey.‖
Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadn’t prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced. She tells one story. ―One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold. I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck. One of the men couldn’t move because he had broken his leg. They were taken to hospital by helicopter. That was the worst time.‖
By the end of October last year, she had raised more than ￡50,000 for charity.
She says, ―Sometimes I ask myself, what did I do? How did I do it? But then I think, it’s the same as being a dancer. Before I left on the trip, I had trained hard. I had got very fit and had prepared myself completely. Then on the trip I was simply a good team member.‖

C. happy because I could do something I was interested in instead of taking care of children
D. sad because all the children left me when they grew up
8. The word ―section‖ in Para. 4 most probably means here ____C_____.
A. group of people
B. part of the training

A. Not exact.
B. Difficult.

D. Pleasant.
10. The last paragraph suggests that ____A_____.
A. the qualities she needed for the trip were the same as those for a dancer
