【題目】 I looked into the mirror and checked if I was dressed up properly. YES! My hair was clean and my tie was straight. So I confidently went to the stage, imagining how proud my parents would be! That evening, I was the pianist playing in the school concert for the first time. When the concert was over, I couldn’t wait to share my joy with my family. However, only my mother was there. She explained, “Son, your dad is called out to work.”

I was a little unhappy, though not very surprised. Because it was not the first time that my father was absent. As a manager in a big telecommunications(電信) company, my father was very busy with his work all year around. In fact, I didn’t have much time with him. Every time when I complained about it, my father always said, “Everyone has his duty(責(zé)任), and I have mine.”

Later, I had a chance to visit father’s company. He pointed to a big iron tower and said, “Son, that is a base station. Do you know that about 25 percent of the calls in our country are through the network we built?” “Wow!” “But it’s hard work. You know, China started late in many ways. We have to work hard and sometimes even give up time with family.”

Now, more and more people are amazed at the Chinese miracle(奇跡). If any foreign friend asks me what makes the Chinese miracle, I want to tell that behind the miracle there is always a story like my father’s.

【題目】 Both native English speakers and non-native speakers find the spelling of English is the most difficult. The English spelling system is not based on a phonetic （語音） link between sounds and letters, as is the spelling of Spanish and some other languages. Instead, English spelling is affected by the historical development of the language. Some words are pronounced in several different ways； similarly, different combinations （結(jié)合）of letters can produce the same pronunciation.

The link between sound and spelling in English is not phonetically exact for two main reasons. First, spelling changes did not keep pace with changes in the sound system after the development of printing and of conventions （慣例）for spelling. For example, the k in knife and the gh in right come from the Middle English period (from about 1100 to about 1500) , when they were pronounced as separate sounds. Second, there are some spelling conventions that are based on other languages. For example, during the 16th century the "b" was put into the word doubt. This reflected the Latin word, dubitare, even though the "b” was not pronounced in English.

Two further influences contributed to the illogical system of spelling. When books began to be printed in England, the newly invented spelling system was undermined （逐漸削弱）because nearly all the early London printers were foreign. They were usually paid by the line and often put additional letters into words to earn more. They regularly also added extra letters to the last word of a line to make the whole text look neater. Many of their spelling errors eventually became accepted English spellings.

There have been many attempts （試圖，嘗試）to reform English spelling. The author and playwright George Bernard Shaw suggested a completely new alphabet, but this had very limited success. American English has developed some of its own spelling conventions, largely as a result of the work of spelling reformer Noah Webster. Webster attempted to get rid of some of the irregularities from the English spelling system and distance American English from British English. Nevertheless, the system as a whole remains particularly complex, and English is widely regarded as having the worst spelling of any language in the world.

【1】What is the most difficult for native English speakers and non-native speakers?

【2】Why isn't the link between sound and spelling in English phonetically exact?

【3】Did the printers often put additional letters into words to get more money?

【4】What did Noah Webster do to reform English spelling?

【5】What is the passage mainly about?

A goal (目標(biāo)). Sportspersons know exactly what they are trying to achieve. They have a goal and work toward achieving it. Similarly, you need to have a goal. You need to have a purpose in your life. In fact, this is the starting point. It will drive the other parts of your life.

It might not be easy to find a mentor in real life, but you can learn from virtual (虛擬的) mentors. By reading their books and watching their interviews, you’ll know what advice they would give to you.

Supporters (支持者). Just like a sportsperson needs supporters, you also need supporters. These are people who encourage you to keep going in difficult times. These are people who believe in you no matter what happens. Having supporters can be very important.

Live like a sportsperson, and you will be on your way to reaching your full potential.
