Now I think its time.Early last season, I wrote a column(专栏) about an act of kindness I had seen Jordan do to a disabled child outside the Stadium. After it ran, I got a call from a man in the western suburbs. He said, “I read what you wrote about Jordan, but I thought I should tell you another thing I saw.”Here it comes, I thought. It always does. Write something nice about a person, and people call you up to say that the person is not so nice.A few weeks later Jordan and I were talking about something else before a game, and I brought up what the man had said. Was the man right? Has Jordan really been talking to those two boys in that poor and dirty neighborhood?“Not two boys,” Jordan said, “but four.”And he named them. He said four names.And what did they talk about?“Everything,” Jordan said. “Ive asked to see their grades so that I can check whether theyre paying attention to their schoolwork. If it turns out one or two of them may need teaching, I make sure they get it.”Its just one more part of Michael Jordans life, one more thing that no one knows about, one more thing Jordan does right. The NBA season is over now, and those boys have their memories. So do I!

He hated to see Jordan become someone elses target(靶子).D.

Interviews and investigations show that there are several keys to success that successful people share.First of all, successful people never blame someone or something outside of themselves for their failure to go ahead. They realize that their future lies in their own hands. They understand that they cannot control things in life, such as nature, the past and other people. But in the meantime, they are well aware that they can control their own thoughts and actions. They take responsibility for their life and regard this as one of the most empowering (给人以权力的)things they can do .Perhaps what most separates successful people from others is that they live life “on purpose”-they are doing what they believe they are put here to do .In their opinion, having a purpose in their life is the most important fact that enables them to become fully functioning people. They hold that when they live their life on purpose ,their main concern is to do the job right .They love what they do -and it shows people want to do business with them because of their devotion to their jobs. To live their life on purpose, successful people find a cause they believe in and create a business around it. Besides, they never easily give up. Once they have set up goals in their life, they are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Top achievers always keep in mind that they dont have forever. Rather than seeing it negative or depressing, they use the knowledge to encourage themselves to move on and go after what they want energetically and passionately.69. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. How do people live their life on purpose? B. How can people be successful?C. How do people make plans? D. How do people do business?70. By living life “on purpose ”successful people can _A. do a lot of work without using more money. B. concentrate on their jobsC. do business with many people easily.D. share what they have with every one unselfishly.71.The pronoun “it” (Line 9.Para.2) refers to _A. the main concern of successful people B. the job that successful people doC. the devotion with which successful people do their jobD. the business that successful people do with other people.DAlmost every person uses the Web for something nowadays. This is a good idea since it is useful for so many different things. When you consider its speed and convenience, you will understand that there isnt any reason to use any other means to complete everyday jobs.Just consider the convenience factor when you need quick simple information.
