Not long ago, someone asked the dad of a young pop star what his son would have done if he hadn’t become a singer. The father said he had  36 considered anything else. This was his Plan A. There had been no Plan B. I  37 this to my son Marty, who was studying musical theater at college,when he was thinking about a second   38 in business or teaching.
“Just study what you’re interested in ,” I said.
“But what if I can’t   39   it?” he asked.
“It’ll still be worth it.” I answered.
My friends think I’m   40  . They’ve advised their own children to   41  something they think will bring them financial rewards, ___42   they don’t love it. “Times are hard: get your son into something that can   43  a good job.” A friend told me.
Of course I understand their   44 , and want to protect my son. But why should he  45
his “best years” studying things that hardly hold his   46 ? Is that really a wise use of his
  47 ?  I think fear leads nowhere, while enthusiasm can lead anywhere.
The wisest parents are the ones who   48  their children toward the things that already interest them. It’s   49 that sometimes such parents will feel afraid.

I have witnessed the   51 he has made to run after his dream, and how much he has enjoyed the   52 .
It may be that my son will   53  because of dreaming big. But I believe that seeking one’s own dream is one’s only real chance of happiness. I’d rather he  54  than hung back.(退縮).
As he   55  his choices, my best advice to him is: Risk everything. Plan B, C, D and E will always be there. Grasp Plan A.

Now as a mother myself, I'm anxious about the future, but I'm optimistic at the same time. I have the same concerns that my mother had for me and my brothers when we were growing up and going out into the world. The world it's said has shrunk or become flat. We're connected in ways we never were before. So how do we deal with these new challenges? Well, the other day I was speaking about my concerns for the future. And I said that I wanted to make sure that young people would work hard because we're in competition with jobs. When I was sitting where you are now, I didn't have to worry about competition from China or India. There were no global pressures like you will face as you mark your own way. And we need to get every young person to really get a sense of commitment and to work hard. Well, then my daughter said, "Mom I do work hard and my friends work hard." And I said, "I know that. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to convey any impression that you don't work hard. I just want to set the bar high because we are in a competition for the future."
You know, in 1999 when I was thinking of running for the Senate, I did not know what to do. I was really thinking hard because I had to make a decision. And there were a lot of things to consider. Obviously, no first lady had ever sought public office before. I had obviously never run for office before.
You know, often our most fearsome competitor is ourselves. We struggle with all of the internal doubts and anxieties, fears for the future, concerns for the world. Sometimes when I look at what's happening in the world, it's hard to imagine going out and doing anything of meaning. But we can do it and not only that, we must. America needs you to grab hold of this moment. So compete to do the best you can and help make our country the best it can be. So today, after you've accepted your diploma, but before you leave this place, please thank your family for guiding you to this moment. Thank your professors for showing you a new world. Thank your friends for exploring that world and finally remember what this day feels like. Cherish it always. Go for it. The world awaits you.
41.Who is most probably the speaker “I”?
A.a(chǎn) Chinese   B.a(chǎn)n Indian   C.a(chǎn)n American adult   D.a(chǎn) university student
42.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A.Quite a few first ladies have run for public offices.
B.Only after you’ve got your diploma and before you leave your university should you thank your parents, your professors and your friends.
C.The speaker is always aware of what to do because she is a determined person.
D.The speaker is concerned about the future even though she is optimistic.
43.Why do you think the speaker urge the students to work harder?
A.Because the students are not really working hard at all.
B.Because they are faced with global competition on their way to their future.
C.Because only in this way can they afford to go to an expensive bar for a good drink.
D.Because their most fearsome competitors are themselves.
44.On the whole, the speech is ________ .
A.disappointing   B.encouraging   C.negative   D.necessary

To discover whether bees can see colors, the following experiment is set up. A table is put in a garden and on the table is a piece of blue cardboard (硬紙板) with a drop of syrup (糖漿) on it. After a short time, bees come to the syrup. The bees then fly to their hive (蜂窩) and give the syrup to other bees in the hive. Then they return to the feeding-place which they have discovered. After a while, the blue cardboard with the syrup on it is taken away. Instead of this card, a blue card is now put on the left side of the first feeding-place and a red card to its right. These new card have no syrup on them. Thus, the blue card is on the left, the red card on the right, and there is nothing where the first blue feeding-card used to be. Very soon bees arrive again, and fly straight to the blue card. None to the red card.
