I had applied for the nuclear（核）submarine(潛艇) program, and Admiral Rickover was interviewing me for the job. It was the first time I met Admiral Rickover, and we sat in a large room by ourselves for more than two hours, and he let me choose any subjects I wished to discuss. Very carefully, I chose those about which I knew most at the time – recent events, seamanship, music, literature, naval tactics(海軍戰(zhàn)術(shù)), electronics, gunnery(射擊學(xué)) – and he began to ask me a lot of questions that were more difficult. Every time after my answers, he soon showed that I knew rather little about the subjects I had chosen.
He always looked right into my eyes, and he never smiled. I was saturated with cold sweat.
Finally, he asked me a question and I thought it was my turn to show myself off. He said, “How did you stand in your class at Georgia Tech before entering Annapolis as a first year student?” I had done very well, and I threw my chest with pride and answered, “Sir, I stood thirty-ninth in a class of 820!” I sat back to wait for the congratulations – which never came. Instead, the question: “Did you do your best?” I started to say, “Yes, sir,” but I remembered who this was, and thought of several of my times at the Academy when I could have learned more about our allies(二戰(zhàn)時(shí)的同盟國), our enemies, weapons strategy(戰(zhàn)略) and so on, so I finally said, “No, Sir, I didn’t always do my best.”
He looked at me for a long time, and then turned his chair around to end the interview. He asked one final question, which I have never been able to forget – or to answer. He said, “Why not?” I sat there for a while, shaken, and then slowly left the room.
小題1:The passage suggests that ___.
A．the atmosphere of the interviews was very serious
B．the author always did his best in doing everything
C．the author and Admiral Rickover were good friends
D．Admiral Rickover knew the author quite well
小題2:The word “saturated” in the second paragraph may probably mean ___.
A．very satisfiedB．completely wetC．rather sadD．too excited
小題3:When the author said: “Sir, I stood thirty-ninth in a class of 820!’’ He meant __.
A．he did better than most of his classmates at the Academy
B．he had 820 classmates and he was Number thirty-nine
C．he was proud that the class he was in was very large
D．in the class only thirty-nine students stood in front of him

Happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also be very happy, When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and poor and you have bad luck. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
小題1:Those who have big houses may often feel ________.
A．happy B．lonely C．free D．excited
小題2:What will your friends say to you when you succeed?
A．Oh, so do I. B．Congratulations.
C．Good luck. D．It’s just so-so.
小題3:Happiness is ________ according to the writer.
A. having a lot of money  B. having a big house   C a feeling of heart  D.having a car

Writing a long book seemed to be too much for me. So, for a long time, I just wrote short articles. One day, inspiration(靈感) for an article hit me and, as I started writing, paragraphs began flowing out fast. It turned out to be too long to be an article. I thought it would not hurt to try self-publishing a booklet(小冊子). The first printing of this 32-page black and white booklet sold out within a week. Here is something that I have learned through my experience.
1.Start small.
Don’t try to have a 400-page work as your first publication. I suggest you publish a booklet under 50 pages to launch your career as an author.
2.Ask for advice.
If you know some people who have published something, ask them for advice and help. You will gain useful information from them and save yourself many problems.
3.           
When you put your heart into something only to hear“We’re not interested”,you may get hurt. But you must remind yourself that this is quite common. Every“yes”you receive comes after at least five“noes”,especially at the beginning. You need to revise your book many times to reduce the chances of being turned down.
4.The more you market, the more you sell.
You can publish an excellent book. But if no people know about it, you cannot expect many buyers. Send out an e-mail to friends, family and business partners, telling them your book’s publication date. Ask them to help sell your book.
Do not be afraid to try novel ideas.
小題1:What does the underlined word“l(fā)aunch”in Point 1 there mean?
A．Begin.B．Develop.C．Lead.D．Describe.
小題2:What’s the best title for Point 3?
A．No one will like what you wrote at first.
B．You will get hurt by what you wrote at first.
C．Prepare for a“yes”rather than a“no”.
D．Be prepared to deal with“noes”.
小題3:According to the passage, if you want to have more copies of your book sold, you should      .
A．a(chǎn)dvertise your book in newspapers
B．try to make more people know your book
C．a(chǎn)sk your business partners to buy your book
D．write something that people are interested in
