25、 A poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and he was hungry. He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk.
He drank it slowly, and then asked, "How much do I owe you?"
"You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness." He said, "Then I thank you from my heart."
As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but his faith in God and man was strong also. He had been ready to give up and quit.
Years later that young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists (专家) to study her rare disease.

Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save her life. From that day he gave special attention to the case.
After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it, then wrote something on the edge and the bill was sent to her room.

26、 Alone in the wilderness. Nothing but jungle. A word of shadow with the rays of light falling like blonde hair from the crowns of the giant trees. Jungle in the middy sun. Everything motionless. Not a sound from sky or earth. Complete silence. Only some coconuts falling, very far away. The world reduced to the soft touch of cool grass along my naked back, and a sweet smell of rich soil and vegetation. Lying with closed eyes beside my heavy fruit and firewood, I enjoyed the feeling of fresh blood streaming through every part of my body and fresh jungle air filling every corner of my body.
Resting motionless, I could see the sun through my closed eyelids, alone in the sky, as lonely as I, and as motionless and silent as everything else. The earth had surely stopped turning and somewhere on this planet there was supposed to be noisy traffic in busy streets. What a crazy, unbelievable thought!
Another coconut fell, to make the world come to a complete standstill. I had to roll over onto my stomach to feel that at least I could move and make noises. Then I found company (陪伴). A little brown ant was struggling (挣扎) to find its way with a bit of dry straw (草) through the jungle of leaves and grass below my nose. I wondered if I could give the little fellow a lift with its burden (重负), but it showed not the slightest sign of tiredness and struggled on with all six legs, head first or head last, waving its feelers energetically as if the trip had just started. Who ever saw a tired ant? Tiredness, disagreeable tiredness, is impossible to hunted animals, slaves and modern man. It is as great an effort for an office to walk five blocks with a heavy brief-case as it is for a farmer to cross a valley with a goat on his back. It is as hard to get up and climb or run when you have been seated for years as it is to get up and walk when you have been in bed for months. The body is strange. Spare it, and you get really tired for almost nothing; use it, and almost nothing makes you really tired.
I rose to my feet. I had heard a horse neighing down in the valley. Above me, on the open highland places, there were wild horses. But down in the valley there was never a horse if there wasn't a man on it. Somebody was making his way up the valley and my wife was alone.
【1】What's the right order of the following events?
① I heard a horse neighing down in the valley.
② I went to the jungle.
③ I found an ant carrying a bit of dry straw.
④ I lay on the ground to have a break.
⑤ I picked fruits and chopped firewood.
A.②③⑤①④ B.⑤③②④① C.②⑤④③① D.⑤④③②①
【2】How does the author feel about the ant?
A.He admired its behavior toward work.
B.He was amazed at its tireless efforts.
C.He had pity on the little ant.
D.He was happy to have its company.
【3】It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the writer would probably _____ .
A.work harder than before B.talk to the man on the horse
C.make his way home D.stay in the valley to enjoy the beautiful view
27、 When Henry Ford decided to produce his famous v-8 motor, he chose to build an engine with the entire(全部) eight cylinders(汽缸) cast in one block, and instructed(命令) his engineers to produce a design in one for the engine. The design was placed on paper, but the engineers disagreed, they thought it was impossible to cast (铸造)an eight-cylinder engine-block in one piece.
Ford said, “Produce it anyway.” “But,” they replied, “It’s impossible!”
“Go ahead.” Ford commanded, “And stay on the job until you succeed, no matter how much time is required.”
The engineers went ahead. There was nothing else for them to do, if they were to remain on the Ford staff. Six months passed and nothing happened. Another six months passed, and still nothing happened. The engineers tried every conceivable(可想到的) plan to carry out the orders, but the thing seemed out of the question: “Impossible!”
At the end of the year Ford checked with his engineers, and again they informed him they had found no way to carry out his orders.
“Go right ahead,” said Ford, “I want it, and I’ll have it.”
They went ahead, and then, as if by a stroke of magic, the secret was discovered. The Ford’s determination had won once more!
Henry Ford was successful, because he understood and applied the principles of success. One of these is desire(意愿): Henry Ford was dying to realize his dream. If you can do this, if you can lay your finger on the particular group of principles which made Henry Ford success, you can equal his achievements in almost any calling for which you are suited.
【1】What did Ford ask his engineers to do?
A.To produce a design to cast an eight-cylinder engine-block in one piece. B.To design a paper to produce his famous v-6 motor.
C.To carry out the successful plan. D.To find the secret of the Ford millions.
【2】How long did it take the engineers to find out the secret to success?
A.6 months B.Less than 6 months
C.Less than 12 months D.More than 12 months
【3】It is clear that Henry Ford could be successful because________.
A.he could work hard B.he ordered others to work for him
C.he had much money D.he had a kind of desire for what he sought(追求)
【4】According to the passage, we can infer Ford’s engineers would________.
A.leave Ford’s company B.admire Ford and follow him
C.be always successful. D.be the richest in the world.
【5】Which is probably the best title of this passage?
A.The principles of success B.How to get rich.
