was shocked by a series of photos. the pictures were of a black man who destroyed his skin with chemicals that promised to make him while.for the first time, the boy began to doubt who he was.however, now the boy who used to struggle with his identity doesnt see it as a problem any more, but an advantage for his successful career. last week obama made history by being elected as the first black president of the united states. he defeated john mccain in a landslide victory.obamas story starts in opposite corners of the world. his white mother was born in the heartland of the us. his black father grew up in a tiny village in kenya. they met during college in hawaii, but his father left the family when obama was just two years old and his mother moved to indonesia.at 10, obama moved back to live with his white grandparents in hawaii. at his class, a white boy asked obama if his father ate people. out of embarrassment, obama lied to his classmates that his father was a prince. “i kept asking who i am and i ended up trying drugs and drinking.” obama recalled.things came to change after the young man made friends with those with a similar background at college. their experiences back in africa helped obama to finally face up to his african origin. he worked hard to become a star at harvard law school and the third black senator in us history.at the beginning of his campaign for the white house, few people viewed obama favorably. many doubted his unusual background, which left him neither “black” enough nor “white” enough.but obama turned his pain of growing up into a tool to make americans believe:” “there is not a black america and a white america, a latino america, and asian america. there is the united states of america.”barack obamas victory is a historic victory that promised change and overcame centuries of prejudice. his success fulfilled martin luther kings dram that a man be judged not by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character”, wrote abc news.43. which is the correct order? a. being elected the first black president of the us b. returning to live with his grandparents c. going to college d. joining in the campaign for the white house

15 october 2013d. dont meet the demands of the international expertsci had an experience some years ago, which taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. one january, i had to hold two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my community. both had died “full of years”, as the bible would say. their homes happened to be near each other, so i paid condolence(吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon.at the first home, the son of the deceased(已故的) woman said to me, “if only i sent my mother to florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today its my fault that she died.” at the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, “if only i hadnt insisted on my mothers going to florida, she would be alive today. that long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could take. its my fault that shes dead.”you see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course -keeping mother at home, putting off the operation- would have turned out better. after all, how could it have turned out any worse?there seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. the first is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. that leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds.the second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. it seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our fault. the roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood.a baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. he wakes up in the morning and summons(召唤) the rest of the world to his tasks. he cries, and someone comes to attend to him. when he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. very often, we do not completely outgrow that childish view that our wishes cause things to happen.50. what is said about the two deceased elderly women?a. they werent used to the cold and the snow.b. they died of exhaustion after the long plane ride.c. they lived out a natural life.d. they died due to lack of care by family members.51. the author had to hold the two womens funerals probably because_.a. he was minister of the local church b. he was an official from the communityc. they lived in harmony in the same communityd. he wanted to comfort the two families52. people feel guilty for the death of their loved ones because _.a. they couldnt find a better way to express their sorrow.b. they believed that they were responsiblec. they had neglected the natural course of eventsd. they didnt know things often turn in the opposite direction53. which of the following is true according to the writer? a. people should feel guilty when everything turned out wrong. b. peoples childhood view makes them believe that their wishes cause things to happen. c. every effect has its cause. d. babies believe that they make things turn out the opposite.54. whats the idea of the message? a. life and death is an unsolved mystery b. every story should have a happy ending c. never feel guilty all the time because not every disaster is our fault d. in general, the survivors will feel guilty about the people who passed awaydi tried not to be biased, but i had my doubts about hiring stevie. his social worker assured me that he would be a good, reliable busboy. but i had never had a mentally handicapped employee. he was short, a little fat with the smooth facial features and thick-tongued speech of downs syndrome (唐氏综合症). i thought most of my customers would be uncomfortable around stevie so i closely watched him for the first few weeks.i shouldnt have worried. after the first week, stevie had my staff wrapped around his fat little finger, and within a month my regular truck customers had adopted him as their official truck stop mascot(吉祥物). after that, i really didnt care what the rest of the customers thought of him. he was like a 21-year-old in blue jeans and nikes, eager to laugh and eager to please, but fierce in his attention to his duties. every salt and pepper shaker was exactly in its place, not a coffee spill was visible when stevie got
