She may not have an MBA, a high-school diploma, or even a driver’s license yet, but Asheley Qualls already has an influential website (www. Whateverlife.Com). The 17-year-old girl hass been building her online business for two years.

In December 2004, Qualls borrowed $8 from her mother to buy the Whateverlife.com. domain name (域名). She intended to use the website as a way to share her design for My Space pages woth her friends.

Combining families with kids can be tough and offers even more unexpected problems. You just don’t know how things will shake out until everyone is under one roof, trying on new roles with name that start with “step”. This is what happened to Sheila and Will, and Sheila’s 8-year-old daughter Ashley. After the couple got married, and Will became the member of the new family, things got worse than expected. How did they make it work? Read the full version of the story here.

   Shelia’s Turn: When Shelia and Will were dating, he seemed like kids, especially Ashley. He’d bring her presents, play games with her. But after the wedding, things took a turn. Will suddenly became a super strict stepfather, scolding Ashley for watching too much cartoons, constantly picking fights and punishing her for offenses as small as spilling milk. Shelia’s thought about leaving Will, but soon after they married, they had a son, Billy. Will adores his well-behaved boy, but Ashley hates him. Shelia doesn’t know what to do--- her daughter is miserable, but leaving her husband might mean losing her son.

   Will’s turn: Will was so excited to be a male role model in Ashley’s life. He didn’t just want to be a guy living in her house; he wanted to treat her like his own daughter, which, to Will, meant giving Ashley more rules and help her learn responsibility. He’d always felt that Shelia let Ashley loose on everything. But after the wedding, Will was surprised that Shelia didn’t want him to do that. If Will takes away Ashley’s TV privileges or tells her to clean up her room, Shelia just lets Ashley do what she likes and does it herself. Will was tired of this and he’d rather take his son and go.

   The advisor’s turn: The counselor(顧問) quickly recognized their conflict as a classic case of unspoken, hidden expectations. Before the wedding, when it was just Shelia and Will, everything was easy. But now, everyone in their big family is competing for attention, and the couple never sat down and discussed the biggest issue---their child-upbringing philosophies(育兒經(jīng)). The counselor suggested Shelia allow Will to give some rules on Ashley but Will’s punishments couldn’t be extreme. Once Ashley saw that her mom and stepdad had become a united front, she cooperated more.

1.The text is most likely to be found in a book about______.

    A. popular science            B. historical events

C. social problems            D. political systems

2.The reasons for Ashley’s dislike of Will are as follows except_____?

A. Will often picked fights with Ashley.

A. Ashley often spilled milk on the floor.

B. Will always punished her for bad behaviors.

C. Ashley was stopped watching too many cartoons.

3.What can we know about Will?

A. Will has a good intention.           

B. Will does not love children

C. Will does not love Shelia any more   

D. Will’s way of parenting is very perfect.

4.It can be inferred from the passage that the advisor’s attitude to their problem?

A. Negative    B. Objective     C. Critical     D. . Subjective

Knowing how much her own children loved presents at Christmas, Ann Sutton, a social worker, always tried to seek help for one or two poor families.

At a  33  dinner, the phone rang. A representative from a local charity was calling to say that the  34  Ann had requested for Ashley had been cancelled. No Santa Claus, no presents, nothing. Ann saw the cheer fade away from her children's faces at the news. Without a word, she  35  down from her chair and ran from the room. Now, it didn't feel much  36  Christmas anymore. Kinzie returned, her face set with determination. She had opened up her piggy  37 , and now she counted out the coins and broken dollar  38  , one by one, onto the dining table: $3.30. Everything she had.

“Mom,” she told Ann, “I know it's not much.  39  maybe this will buy a present for the baby.”

Then  40  everyone was reaching into pockets and purses. Adding to Kinzie's gift became a game, with everyone  41  for loose change. By the time the search ended, there was a small mountain of bills and a neat pile of coins. The  42 : $130, plenty for a Christmas for three. “God multiplied your gift,” Ann said to Kinzie.

That evening, Kinzie went with her mother and sister to  43  the money.

On Christmas Eve, Ann  44  through the pouring rain to the small cottage where the family lived. When Ashley opened the door, Ann stood under her umbrella and  45  the astonished woman a merry Christmas. Then she began to  46  the gifts from the car, handing them to Ashley one by one. Ashley laughed in disbelief, and still the presents came. Ann abandoned the umbrella, and the young woman joined her in the rain, passing gifts  47  to Kenny. “Please, can I open up just one tonight?” he begged. Soon both women were  48  to the skin, and surprise had turned to something  49  , the kind of joy that brought them close to tears.

Reflecting on a little girl's generosity, Ashley says she hopes she'll one day be able to do something similar for someone else in  50  . “Kinzie could have used that money for herself, but she gave it away,” Ashley says. “She's the type of kid I'd like my son to grow up to be.”
