I asked many classmates and friends, “What do you think you will be when you grow up?”   1 of them told me what they would like to be in the future,    2   others said, “I don’t know.” I’m    3   to hear that because I think it’s bad. I think having dreams or hopes about the future will help us do better at school.
As middle school students, it’s time for us to    4   what we want to be in the future. If we know it better, we will know    5   to do it better at school. For example, if you are outgoing and like to meet people, you can be a   6   in the future. Then you should practice   7  more articles. If you’re happy with children and like    8  , you can teach English as a job in the future. And then you are supposed to work harder at English. If you want to    9   many interesting places, you can be a tour guide.
Of course, all the    10   that we are learning at school will be useful in the future, so we should work hard at all of them.

I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a major insurance(保險業(yè)) company. I told him honestly why I wanted the job----I needed to keep my family in Boston. My wife recently died of a heart attack. A job in Boston would help me reduce some of the extreme trauma (精神創(chuàng)傷) and pain of the loss for my 16-year-old daughter. It was important for me to keep her in her high school. I could still hardly talk about the loss of my wife.
Bruce, the interviewer, was politely empathetic, but he didn't probe any further. He admitted my loss and with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of the interview, Bruce took me to lunch with another person. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he, too, had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had three children.
In his sharing, I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had -----a pain that was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a beloved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, if I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call.
Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help. When he had no idea if we would ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of the greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview into a caring support for another person in need.  
小題1:The writer took part in the interview because __________.
A.hehad lost his job and wanted to find a new one.
B.he had to support his family in Boston.
C.his wife had recently died of a heart attack.
D.his daughter needed money for schooling.
小題2:The underlined word "empathetic" in the second paragraph means ____.
A.善良的B.容易相處的C.聰明的D.同情的
小題3:Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A.Bruce invited the writer to lunch later.
B.Bruce shared his life experience with the writer.
C.Bruce was willing to help the writer.
D.Bruce finally gave the job to the writer.
小題4:We can infer(推斷) from the passage that ______.
A.Bruce and the writer saw each other often.
B.the writer got little help from Bruce.
C.the writer learned much from the job interview.
D.the writer had a better life afterwards.
小題5:What is the best title for the passage?
A.An Act of KindnessB.A Pleasant Interview

1.We have always been warned of the dangers of the forest fires. They cause     1   to a forest. They kill many plants and animals in an eco-system, which is a group of living things and their environment. But have you ever heard of a forest fire that can be     2    for a forest?
2.People start some of the fires with special reasons to actually do well to the eco-system.
3.In fact, fires are a natural part of any eco-system. Without fires, the oldest and largest trees would stop sunlight from reaching the forest floor. Fires can       3      some of these old trees. When the trees die, they provide something good for the earth. New trees can grow strong and healthy in their place.
4.Some trees even need fires to grow. These trees hold their seeds(種子) inside. Heats from a fire allow the coat of the seeds to open up. Then the seeds fall to the ground and have the 4 to grow.
5.Scientists, who know about nature’s needs, start some of these fires, called controlled burns. A fire is started and kept under control. This way, the fire does not spread out of the area or 5   a large space of the forest. Fires can be dangerous for animals. Even when animals continue to live after forest fires, they can go hungry   6    their food has been damaged in the fire. Small, controlled fires mean that animals will not have to move far to find food. After some time, small plants begin to grow. Animals return soon after the plants return. This   7 makes an eco-system.
6.So the next time you hear about a forest fire, think about the good as well as the bad. It may take a new eco-system a while to return, but it will likely come back stronger and healthier than ever.
