Our home was a complete zoo-a joyous zooNot surprising, I never did make it back to college full-timeBut I never gave up on the dream eitherI had only one choice: to find a wayThat meant talking as few as one class each semesterThe hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boysThey often wanted me to stay home with themThere certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their livesIn 2007, I graduated from the University of North CarolinaIt took me over 21 years to get my college degree！I am not special, just single-mindedIt always struck me that when youre looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when youre in the midst of it, it just seems normalEverything you want wont arrive in your life on one dayIts a processRemember: little steps add up to big dreams41When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be .Aa writerBa teacherCa judgeDa doctor42Why did the author quit school in her second year of college?AShe wanted to study by herselfBShe fell in love and got marriedCShe suffered from a serious illnessDShe decided to look after her grandma43What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 4 and 5?AShe was buy yet happy with her family lifeBShe ignored her guilty feeling for her sonsCShe wanted to remain a full-time housewifeDShe was too confused to make a correct choice44What dose the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph?AFailure is the mother of successBLittle by little ,one goes farCEvery coin has two sidesDWell begun ,half done45Which of the following can best describe the author ?ACaring and determineBHonest and responsibleCAmbitious and sensitive DInnocent and single-mindedCAn idea that started in Seattles public library has spread throughout America and beyondThe concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same timeIn addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit（追求）to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schoolsThe idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched （发起）the If All of Seattle Read the Same Book project in 1998Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong KongIn Chicago, the mayor（市长）appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the One Book, One Chicago programAs a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the cityAcross the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character The only problem arose in New York ,where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse populationThis may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity（一致）can be achieved Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than into discussion about a book itselfUltimately, as Nancy points out, the level of success is n
