The CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs’ story about death

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “If you live each day as if it were your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself, “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?”

Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered(遇到)to help me make the big choice in life.

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that was incurable, and that I would live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is my doctors’ code for preparing yourself to die.

I lived with that diagnosis all day. I was completely in despair. Later that evening, I had another biopsy(活組織檢查)and my wife told me that tumor turned to be curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I’m fine now.

This was the closest I’ve been to facing death. To tell the truth, no one wants to die. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. It clears out the old to make room for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.

Your time is so limited that you shouldn’t waste it repeating someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma(教條)----which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart. It somehow already knows what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

1.The doctor advised the author to go home and get his affairs in order because_________.

A.he had to rest at home

B.his disease was not serious at all

C.his disease couldn’t be cured

D.he had to wait for the result of the test

2. How did the author feel after the diagnosis?

A.Angry

B.Excited

C.Optimistic

D.Hopeless

3.What does the author think of death?

A.He thinks it is nothing to be scared of.

B.He thinks it is not the end of life.

C.He thinks it is impossible to avoid.

D.He thinks it is the beginning of a new life

4. In the author’s opinion, we should ____________.

A. follow others’ advice

B. take no notice of diseases

C. take exercise and keep healthy

D have the courage to follow our heart

科目:高中英語 來源:2010年陜西省高一下學(xué)期期末考試英語題 題型:閱讀理解

Are you worried by the rising crime rate? If you are, you probably know that your house and possessions are increasingly in danger of suffering from great rise in the cases of burglary(夜盜;搶劫) and attack.

Figures show an ever-increasing crime rate, but it is only too easy to imagine "It will never happen to me".Unfortunately, statistics show that it really can happen to you and, if you live in a large city, you run twice the risk of being a victim.
