He found a cold storage room in a building, set up a used typewriter and settled down to work.After a year or so, however, Alex began to doubt himself. He found it was difficult to earn his living by selling what he wrote. But Alex determined to put his dream to the test-even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadow land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.One day Alex got a call, “We need an assistant, and were paying $6,000 a year. $6,000 was real money in 1960. It would enable Alex to get a nice apartment, a used car and more. Besides, he could write in his spare time. As the dollars were dancing in Alexs head, something cleared his senses. He had dreamed of being a writerfull time. “Thanks, but no, Alex said firmly and swiftly, “Im going to stick it out and write.After Alex got off the phone, he pulled out everything he had: two cans of vegetables and 18 cents. Alex put the cans and cents into a paper bag, saying to himself, “Theres everything youve made of yourself so far. Im not sure I ever felt so low.Finally his work was published in 1970. Instantly he had the kind of fame and success that few writers ever experience. The shadows had turned into focus of attention.Then one day, Alex found a box filled with things he had owned years before. Inside was a paper bag with two cans and 18 cents. Suddenly he pictured himself working in that cold storage room. It reminds Alex, and anyone with a dream, of the courage and persistence it takes to stay the course(持续到底) in the shadow land.56. Why did Alex give up his job? A. Because he didnt like the working conditions.B. Because he couldnt earn enough to make a living.C. Because he wanted to be a full-time writer.D. Because he felt he had no potential in his job.57. What did Alex express when he answered the call? A. He refused the job offer.B. He was willing to give them a hand.C. He expected them to pay him more money.D. He would write in his spare time.58. What kind of person is Alex? A. Determined. B. Modest. C. Shy. D. Brave.59. Which of the following can summarize the passage best? A. Look before you leap.B. Two heads are better than one.C. Hold on to your dream and it will come true.D. A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.BThe secret of carrier pigeons unbelievable ability to find their way home has been discovered by scientists; the feathered navigators follow the roads just like we do.Scientists now believe the phrase “as the crow flies no longer means the shortest most direct route between two points. They say it is likely that crows and other birds also choose AAsuggested routes, even though it makes their journeys longer.Scientists at Oxford University spent 10 years studying homing pigeons using global positioning satellite(GPS) and got a surprising result. The birds often dont use the sun to decide their directions.Instead they fly along motorways, turn at crossing and even go around roundabouts(绕道), adding miles to their journeys.“It really has knocked our research team sideways to find that after a decade-long international study, pigeons appear to ignore their inbuilt directional instincts(本能) and follow the road system, said Prof Tim Guilford, reader in animal behavior at Oxford Universitys Department of Zoology.Guilford said pigeons use their own navigational system(导航系统) when doing long distance trips or when a bird does a journey for the first time.“But once homing pigeons have flown a journey more than once, they can fly home on a habitual route, much as we do when we are driving or walking home from work, said Guilford.“In short, it looks like it is mentally easier for a bird to fly down a road. They are just making their journey as simple as possible.60. What would be the best title of the passage? A. How Pigeons Find Their Ways HomeB. Why Pigeons Can Fly Long DistanceC. Birds Follow Roads As We DoD. Why Crows Fly the shortest Distance61. Scientists used to think that homing pigeons often find their directions _. A. by global positioning satellite B. by the sunC. by the road system D. by following other birds62. Why do homing pigeons tend to follow the road system during their journey? A. Because they dont have their inbuilt directional instincts now.B. Because their own navigational system doesnt work.C. Because it is too hard to use their own navigational system.D. Because it is easier to make journey simple by following road system.CIn the modern world more and more people meet the problem of identityThe most interesting example is that of a so called “banana, which refers to an American who has an Asian face but holds Western valuesIn Shanghai, there now live a group of people from abroadThey look no different from the locals and speak fluent Chinese or even Shanghai dialect, but when it comes to writing Chinese characters, they are almost illiterate文盲Jack is such an exampleHe never learned to read or write Chinese characters, which he finds mysterious and difficultFrom time to time, he files to the US as he does not feel Shanghai is where he comes from“But when I am in the States, I feel thats not my home either, he saidAt De Gaulle Airport in France, there is a Swiss man who has been living in the waiting room for a long time because he lost h is passport during his travelsHe was refused entry into several countriesBut when he was eventually allowed to return to Swizerland, he refused to leave the airportHis reason was very simple“I am sure who I amI need no acknowledgement from others, he said during an interviewFor th is reason he was honored by the Western media as “the Hero of identityAs the Internet becomes more and more popular, the problem of identity becomes more seriousIn a virtual world, people can have different addresses registered with different namesIn the Internet chat room, even ones gender性别 is h
