Finally, a cell phone
That’s… a phone
With rates as low as $3．75 per week ！
“Well, I finally did it． I finally decided to enter the digital age and get a cell phone． My kids have been annoying me and the last straw was when my car broke down, and I was stuck by the highway for an hour before someone stopped to help． But when I went to the cell phone store, I almost changed my mind． The phones all have cameras, computers and a “global-positioning” something or other that’s supposed to spot me from space． Goodness, all I want to do is to be able to talk to my grandkids! The people at the store weren’t much help． They couldn’t understand why someone wouldn’t want a phone the size of a postage stamp． And the rate plans! They were confusing, and expensive… and the contract （合同）lasted for two years! I’d almost given up until a friend told me about her new Jitterbug phone． Now, I have the convenience and safety of being about to stay in touch with a phone I can actually use． ”
Affordable plans that I can understand---and no contract to sign （簽訂）！ Unlike other cell phones，Jitterbug has plans that make sense． Why should I pay for minutes I’m never going to use? And if I do talk more than I plan，I won’t find myself with no minutes like my friend who has a prepaid phone． Best of all, there is no contract to sign, so I’m not locked in for years at a time． The US-based customer service is second to none． And the phone gets service anywhere in the country．

Hank Viscardi was 26 years old when he put on his first pair of long trousers and his first pair of shoes. For the first time he saw himself as he had always wanted to be a full five feet eight inches tall.

Hank had been born without legs. Until he was seven, his world was a world of repeated operations. At last he had not legs, but stumps（殘肢）that could be fitted with a kind of special boots.

Out of the hospital, Hank often found people staring at him with cruel interest. Children laughed at him and called him “Ape Man” because his arms dragged（拖）on the ground.

He went to school like other boys. His grades were good and he needed only eight years instead of the usual twelve.

After graduation, Hank worked his way through college. He swept floors, waited on table, or worked in one of the college offices. During all this busy life, Hank had been moving around on his stumps. But one day the doctor told him even the stumps were not going to last much longer. Hank would soon have to use a wheel chair.

Hank felt himself go cold all over. However, the doctor said there was a chance that he could be fitted with artificial（人造的）legs.

Finally a leg maker was found and the day came when Hank stood up before the mirror and saw himself for the first time, five feet eight inches tall.

But this was not the end yet. He had to learn to use his new legs. Again and again he marched the length of the room, and marched back again. There were times when he fell down on the floor, but he pulled himself up and went back to the endless marching. He went out on the street. He climbed the stairs and learned to dance. He built a boat and learned to sail it.

When World War Ⅱ came, he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job. He took the regular training. He marched and drilled along with the other soldiers. Few knew that he was legless. This was the true story of Hank Viscardi, the man without legs.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從下框的A – F選項中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項。選項中有一個多余選項。

A．Being patient
B．Being attractive
C．Being sympathetic
D．Being good-looking
E.Going on learning
F. Teaching the lesson in a lively way
 
 

 
The personal Qualities of a Teacher: What personal qualities should a teacher have? I think the following would be accepted by most of us.
1.
First, a teacher should be pleasantly live and attractive. It does not mean that the teacher should be good-looking, because teachers who are not good-looking might also have their personal charm. Anyway, they should not be boring.
2.
Secondly, it is basic for a teacher to be sympathetic----to understand the minds and feelings of other people. Closely related with this is the capacity to be tolerant (寬容) - indeed not of what is wrong, but of the weakness of human beings which make people, especially children, make mistakes.
3.
Thirdly, a teacher should be a bit of an actor. That is part of the skill of teaching, which means that every now and then a teacher should put on an act(裝樣子) to make his lesson interesting and vivid.
4
Fourthly, a teacher must sometimes show great patience. This is mainly a matter of self-training. None of us are born like that. Teaching requires great effort and a teacher should be able to deal with problem children.
5.
Finally, a teacher should have the kind of mind which always wants to go on learning. Teaching is a job in which a teacher will never be perfect. There is always something more to learn. There are three main subjects of study: the subjects which the teacher is teaching; the methods the teacher is using; the students whom the teacher is teaching. The two main rules of education today are that education is education of the whole person, and that it needs full and active cooperation between two persons — the teacher and the student.
