One day several years ago, I drove up to a 31 . Christy, the young divorcee（离了婚的人）who lived there, was waiting by the roadside. She said that she had a 32 to tell me.About six months 33 it seemed that I had 34 a letter to her which had her street 35 on it but was addressed to another house with the 36 number on a different street in the neighborhood. She decided to 37 the letter at the correct house.It turned out that the letter had been 38 for Johnson, who happened to be 39 . They talked for a little while, and later on he 40 . Then they started dating and had been going 41 together ever since.I felt sorry for delivering the letter wrong, but I was 42 that I had brought these nice people together.A few months later a(n) 43 sign went up in Christys yard, and then the wedding 44 were sent out. Soon the house was sold, the wedding happened, 45 Christy, with her kids moved into Johnsons house.A few months later, I saw a For Sale sign in 46 yard. I feared the 47 might be in trouble, so I made up a(n) 48 to go to their door and 49 on them.Christy opened the door, smiled broadly, and pointed to her huge stomach “Were having twins!” she said, “This house wont be big enough, so we have to 50 ”.I suddenly realized that my one misdelivered letter was not giving two little yet-to-be born people a shot at life.

Just possibly, she may be the wisest woman on this planet. Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they havent thought about it, dont have it on their schedule, didnt know it was coming or are too strict to depart from their routine.I cant count the times I called my sister and said, “How about going to lunch in half an hour?” She would gasp and stammer（结结巴巴地说）,“I cant. I have clothes on the line. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known yesterday, I had a late breakfast, it looks like rain.” And my personal favorite response: “Its just Monday.” She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together. From then on, Ive tried to be a little more flexible.Life had a way of going faster as we get older. The days get shorter, and the list of promises made to ourselves gets longer. One morning, we awaken, and all have to show for our lives is repetition of “Im going to”, “I plan on” and “Someday, when things are settled down a bit.”When anyone calls my “seize the moment”friend, she is open to adventure and available for trips. She keeps an open mind on new ideas. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. You talk with her for five minutes, and youre ready to trade your bad feet for a pair of Rollerblades and skip an elevator for a bungee cord.My lips have not touch ice cream in 10 years. I love ice cream. The other day, I stopped the car and bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home, I would have died happy.Now go on and have a nice day.

That way work would be both painless and fun. Or, so we imagine.Well, in fact it isnt quite as simple as that. Yes, it is true that being the boss has its satisfactions and that you can arrange your working hours freely if you own your own small business. But in those early years of starting your own business, you shouldnt think of a free day, not to mention flying off for a months vacation. It is not unusual for new business owners to work seventy or eighty hours a week, and if there is a day off, that day might need to be devoted to accounting (算帐).But this negative picture doesnt destroy the beautiful hopes. The possibility of getting something wonderful in return- both material and mental- continues to drive that large number of people who start up small businesses each year in the United States.55.

Most new business owners have to _.A. work more than 10 hours a dayB. devote himself to accountingC. fly to some places in the worldD. have a day off in a week57. The expression negative picture most probably means _.A. a terrible experienceB. a poor pictureC. limited freedomD. unpleasant situations58. The beautiful hopes will never be destroyed because _.A. people love beautiful things by natureB. people have a strong desire to seek personal gainsC. small businesses make big money each year in the USD. small businesses have advantages over big companiesC“Lets go down one more, push your enter key”says a volunteer helping senior citizens work a web session on the Internet.David Lansdale had found a way to light up the lives of the elderly. He gets them wired to the Internet.“If you hit your enter key, it will bring up this particular e-mail ”Pauline Allen is one of those who has started using the Internet,“I thought I was through with life, I was ready of a rocking chair, because I was 86 years old. And I havent found the rocking chair yet.”“You found the keyboard？”asks the reporter. “Thats right, I found the keyboard.”The average age for Lansdales students is around 68. All are in nursing or assisted care homes. He used family relationships to introduce them to the World Wide Web.David Lansdale says,“Here they are in California, the family was back in New York ,the opportunity to connect, to cross the time and space, was incredibly(难以置信) precious opportunity to them.”“I hear you are so beautiful.”Lillian Sher writes an e-mail to a newborn great-granddaughter. Working with one another, the senior learn as a group. They learn to master the Internet and to overcome（克服）what Lansdale calls the maladies of the institutionalized: loneliness, helplessness, boredom, and loss of memory.Mary Harvey says,“Bingo just doesnt interest me. But this does, believe me, this does.”Ninety-four year old Ruth Hyman is a star pupil and instructor. She says,“When I send a letter to my grandchildren, and great grandchildren, they hang it up in their offices, just like I used to hang their drawings on my refrigerator. Ha, ha.”David Lansdale says, “Theres a collective benefit. There is an element of treatment. Remember we started as a support group.”Dixon Moorehouse says,“I feel as if I was 15 years old and getting to learn all this.” The senior call their weekly meetings Monday Night Live. And many say the meetings have given them new life.Ruth Hyman says,“Three years ago, they told me I wasnt going to live. But I showed them, and got work, and Ive worked ever since.”59.
