21、The most frightening words in the English language are, “Our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer isdown.”

“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”

“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.”

I noticed every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I looked down on the computer and asked her, “What do all you people do?”

“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”

“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”

“That’s good, sir.”

“How long will the computer be down? I wanted to know.”

“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There’s no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us.”

After the girl told me they had no backup computer, I said. “Let’s forget the computer—What about your planes? They are still flying, aren’t they?”

“I couldn’t tell without asking the computer.”

“Maybe I could, just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he is flying to Washington,” I suggested.

“I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.”

“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”

“I wouldn’t know,” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. It can’t tell me.”

By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The words soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.

【1】Where do you often hear the frightening words “Our computer is down”?

22、When I graduated from high school, I attended a community college. There I majored(主修) in office-related subjects.

One of the required courses was Typing 101. At that time the classrooms were filled with electric typewriters, which were a far cry from the ones that I was familiar with. Often I would stay late working in the student typing lab trying hard to get my pitiful typing to speed up. At that time I was certain I wasn’t typing 30 wpm. I had the hardest time placing my hands properly over the keys. After the first term I was very disappointed when I received an “F” grade.

My father came to the rescue. K-Mart was one of his favourite places to shop. So we got in the car and it just happened that K-Mart was selling the electric typewriters, at reasonable prices. It was deep blue in colour with a plastic carrying case. After looking at it over and over again, we decided this would work for me. So he bought one for me. While I continued to be a regular attendee in my typing lab, I was also actively practising on my own at home. Progress was being made. When the next grading period came around, I received a more acceptable “C”. By the end of the year I made a “B”.

Years later the technology world developed with the introduction of computers for use. My father and I still laugh at that electric typewriter bought at K-mart. It has only been within the last 7 years or so that I have got rid of it. Learning to type has opened up new opportunities for career growth and even being a contributor(投稿者) here at Yahoo. Isn’t it interesting how things turn out for the best after all? Maybe that “F” was a blessing in disguise.

【1】Which of the following is one of the reasons why the writer got an “F” grade at first?

B．The writer didn’t work hard at practising typing.

【3】We can learn from the passage that the writer ________.

A．liked using the electric typewriter

B．works at Yahoo at present

C．had the best grade in his/her class in the end

D．spent a lot of his/her spare time in practising typing

【4】What does the phrase “a blessing in disguise” in the last paragraph mean?

24、In college, I wrote an essay about Christmas Eve to catch the spirit of this special night for my family. I got an A, and even better was this comment from my professor, “I believe you have found a direction for future job.”

My essay described our traditions: turkey, church, two presents. A lot of it was about my Aunt Bud, the head of my mom’s family. We were lucky we lived closest, so she spent holidays at our house. Sadly, she’s gone now. Like so many wonderful spirits, she died too young, just after she retired with big plans for an easy life. But she’s not really gone. She visits us all often, in the form of a cardinal—her favorite bird.

One June day, I called my mom. “What are you doing?” I asked. “Sitting here looking at the tree,” she said, referring to the tree in the middle of our yard. It was about a foot tall when my dad planted it today it towers over the roof. “There are cardinals all over it,” Mom said. “I’ve never seen so many.” I wasn’t surprised. “Mom, you know what day it is, right?” I said. “It’s Aunt Bud’s birthday.” So of course, she had come to visit—with friends.

In this issue of our Reader’s Digest, we’ve collected inspiring stories about unusual events that happened around the holidays. This year we focus on people who showed a kindness that made a forever difference in someone’s life. “Angels in action,” we call them. I hope your angels visit you this holiday season.
