  Another person’s enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved. That person was my stepmother.

  I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia. My father 1        me to her with these words： “I would like you to meet the fellow who is 2        for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no 3        than tomorrow morning. ”

  My stepmother walked over to me,4        my head slightly upward,and looked me right in the eye. Then she looked at my father and replied, “You are 5    . This is not the worst boy at all,6        the smartest one who hasn’t yet found an outlet for his enthusiasm. ”

  That statement began a (n) 7      between us.  No one had ever called me smart. My family and neighbours had built me up in my 8        as a bad boy. My stepmother changed all that.

  She changed many things. She 9        my father to go to a dental school,from which he graduated with honours. She moved our family into the countryside,where my father’s career could be more 10        and my brothers and I could be better 11    .

  When I turned fourteen,she bought me a second-hand 12        and told me that she believed that I could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm,I 13        it,and I saw how it had already improved our lives. I accepted her 14        and began to write for local newspapers. I was doing the same kind of 15        that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life’s work later. I wasn’t the 16        beneficiary (受益者).My father became the 17        man in town. My brothers and stepbrothers became a physician,a dentist,a lawyer,and a college president.

  What power 18        has!When that power is released to support the certainty of one’s purpose and is 19        strengthened by faith,it becomes an irresistible force which poverty and temporary defeat can never 20    .

You can communicate that power to anyone who needs it. This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm.

  I suppose that the most basic and powerful way to connect another person is to listen—just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention and especially if it's given from the heart. When people are talking,there's no need to do anything but receive them. Listen to what they're saying. Care about it. Most times caring about it is even more impor?tant than understanding it. Most of us don't value ourselves or our love enough to know this. It has taken me a long time to believe in the power of simple saying "I'm so sorry. " when someone is in pain.

  One of my patients told me that when she tried to tell her story,people often interrupted to tell her that they once had something just like that happening to them. Her pain became a story about themselves. Eventually she stopped talk?ing to most people. We connect through listening. When we interrupt what someone is saying to let him know that we understand,we move the focus of attention to ourselves. When we listen,they know we care.

I have even learned to respond to someone crying by jujst listening. In the old days I used to reach for the handkerchiefs,until I realized that passing a person a handkerchief may be just another way to shut him down — to take them out of their experience of sadness. Now I just listen. When they have cried all they need to cry,they find me there with them.

This simple thing has not been that easy to learn. It certainly went against everything I had been taught since I was very young. I thought people listened only because they were too shy to speak or did not know the answer. But now I know that a loving silence often has far more power to heal than the kindest words.

   A. she didn't get enough respect from others

   A. hurt his feelings

   B. make him embarrassed

   C. encourage him to continue to cry

   D. stop him from letting out his sorrow

4. It can be inferred from the passage that while communicating,         

   A. listening is a perfect way to respond to others

   B. people keep silent because they don't know the answer
