three pre-selected tv programs during the week. with our free time, we had to read two books each from the detroit public library and _41_ to her written book reports. she would mark them up with check marks and highlights. years later we realized her marks were a _42_. my mother was illiterate.when i entered high school i was a(n) _43_, but not for long. i wanted the fancy clothes. i wanted to _44_ with the guys. i went from being an a-student to a b-student to a c-student. one night my mother came home from _45_ her various jobs and i complained about not having enough italian knit shirts. she said, okay, ill give you all the money i make this week scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy _46_ food and pay the bills. with everything _47_, you can have all the italian knit shirts you want. i was very _48_ with that arrangement but once i got through allocating money, there was _49_ left. i realized my mother was a financial genius to be able to _50_ a roof over our heads and any kind of food on the table, _51_ buy clothes. i also realized that immediate satisfaction wasnt going to get me anywhere. success required intellectual preparation. i went back to my _52_ and became an a-student again, and eventually i _53_ my dream and i became a doctor.my story is really my mothers story-a woman with _54_ formal education or property who used her position as a parent to change the lives of many people around the globe. there is no job _55_ than parenting. this i believe.36. abelief bworkceducationdpromise37. amajored inbgot used tocdreamed of dgot

into electric sockets，just like many laptops，digital cameras，cell phones and mp4 docalled“plug-in vehicles”，these cars will get most of their power from electricity. their drivers wont have to stop at gas stations as often as usualthe technology is more than just cool. in our car-filled world，plug-in vehicles could reduce the amount of gas we use，which keeps rising in cost now and then. besides，driving around in these vehicles may even help the environmentgas-burning cars produce a lot of greenhouse gas，which causes globe warming.the first company-produced plug-in vehicles could hit the roads by 2010. but engineers still have a lot of work to do to make the technology practical and inexpensivebatteries(电池) are the biggest challenge. in the plug-in-vehicle world，li-ion(锂离子)batteries are getting the most attentionthese batteries can store a large amount of energy in a small package，and they last a longer time between chargesli-ion batteries can fit laptops，cell phones，heart instruments and other similar pocket ones.but because cars are so big and heavy, it would still require a suitcase-sized li-ion batteries to power about 12km of drivingwhats more，the batteries are much expensive“a car filled with batteries could go a long distance，”says ted bohn, an electrical engineer in chicago“but it couldnt pull any peopleand it would cost $100,000”so researchers need to work out how to make batteries smaller and cheaper，among other questions.“the answers dont exist yet，”bohn says，“as a kid，i thought someone someplace knows the answer to everythingall of these questions havent been decidedthats what engineering is about-making a guess，running tests and getting fine results”64the passage mainly talks about of a new carathe developing bthe speed cthe appearance dthe batteries65which is true according to the passage?athe“plug-in vehicles”will use electricity completely as driving powerbthe new technology will help protect our environmentcthe technology of using electricity as driving is quite practical nowdthe biggest challenge of the new technology is that it will cost us more energy66how does bohn feel about the future of the technology according to the last paragraph?aconfident bpuzzled cworried ddisappointed67according to the passage，the new technology is facing the following problems except that athe new technology cannot come into use at presentbthe cost of the new technology is quite highcthe government wont support the technologyd the size of the batteries is too big at presentdresidents along
