At the age of 11, Peter Lynch started caddying(當(dāng)球童) at Brae Burn Country Club in Newton, Mass. “It was better than a newspaper carrier, and much more profitable,” the Fidelity vice chairman recalls. He kept it up during the summers for almost a decade. “You get to know the course and can give the golf players advice about how to approach various holes,” he says. “Where else, at age 15 or 16, can you serve as a trusted adviser to high-powered people?”

One of those people was George Sullivan, then president of Fidelity’s funds, who was so impressed with Lynch’s smarts that he hired him in 1966. “There were about 75 applicants for 3 job openings,” Lynch says now. “But I was the only one who had caddied for the president for 10 years.”

In between caddying and managing money, Lynch went to Boston College on a scholarship from a program called the Francis Ouimet Fund. Named after the 1913 winner of the U.S. Open, the fund launched in 1949 which is open to Massachusetts kids only. Ouimet executive director Robert Donovan says, “Help with college is a logical extension of friendly relation between golfers and their favorite caddies, because there is a close tie to train up them to be excellent that happens between the players and the kids who carry their golf poles. And for the teens, caddying is all about being around successful role models.”

It is obvious that caddies who are finally successful include all kinds of outstanding personnel, from actor Bill Murray, to New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, to former GE chairman and CEO Jack Welch.

Of course, the great number of financial giants who caddied in their youth might be coincidence, but Dick Connolly thinks not. “Caddying life teaches you a lot about business, and about life,” he says. “You learn to show up early and look people in the eye when you shake their hand, and you learn how to read people -- including who’s likely to cheat and who isn’t.” Connolly is a longtime investment advisor at Morgan Stanley’s Boston office, a former Ouimet scholarship student and, along with Peter Lynch and Roger Altman, one of the program’s biggest supporters. He wants to share the most important lesson he learned on the links, so he says: “One golfer I caddied for told me that if you want to succeed in any field -- golf or business -- you have to spend a lot of lonely hours, either practicing or working, when you’d rather be partying with your friends. That’s true, and it stuck with me.”

 1.Which of the following may Peter Lynch agree about caddying?

A. He could have a relaxing job as a caddie.

B. He could make more money from the golf players.　　

C. His duty was to advise the players how to play golf.

D. His caddying experiences contributed to his later career.

2.Why was the Francis Ouimet Fund set up to support Massachusetts kids only?

A. Because of the advice from the rich golf players.

B. Because of those giants with caddying experiences.

C. Because of the great success the caddies have achieved.

D. Because of the friendly relation between golfers and their caddies.

3.According to Dick Connolly, caddying experience in your youth_____.

A. helps you learn to live with loneliness

B. teaches you a lot about business and life

C. makes it possible to meet with great people

D. offers you chances to communicate with others

4.Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?

A. Legend of Peter Lynch.

B. An introduction of Golf Caddying.

C. Golf Caddying into Future Success.

D. Five Giants with Caddying Experiences.

Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum (論壇) asking what "PK" meant.

"My family has been watching the 'Super Girl' singing competition TV program. My little daughter asked me what 'PK' meant, but I had no idea," explained the puzzled father.

To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online, it is impossible not to know this term. In such Internet games, "PK" is short for "Player Kill", in which two players fight until one ends the life of the other.

In the case of the "Super Girl" singing competition, "PK" was used to refer to the stage where two singers have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition ranking.

Like this father, Chinese teachers at high schools have also been finding their students' compositions using Internet words which are difficult to understand. A high school teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write compositions with simple language, but they came up with a lot of Internet words that she didn't understand.

"My 'GG' came back this summer from college. He told me I've grown up to be a 'PLMM'. I loved to 'FB' with him together; he always took me to the 'KPM'," went one composition.

"GG" means Ge Ge (Chinese pinyin for brother). "PLMM" refers to Piao Liang Mei Mei (beautiful girl). "FB" means Fu Bai (corruption). "KPM" is short for KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonald's.                            

Some specialists welcome Internet words as a new development in language.

If you do not even know what a Kong Long (dinosaur, referring to an ugly looking female) or a Qing Wa (frog, referring to an ugly looking male) is, you will possibly be regarded as a Cai Niao!

1.By writing the article, the writer tries to ________ .

A．explain some Internet language

B．suggest common Internet language

C．laugh at the Beijing father

D．draw our attention to Internet language

2.What does the writer think about the term "PK"?

A．Fathers can't possibly know it.

B．The daughter should understand it.

C．Online game players may know it.

D．"Super Girl" shouldn't have used it.

3.The examples of the Beijing father and the Tianjin teacher are used to show that Internet words ________ .

A．a(chǎn)re used not only online

B．can be understood very well

C．a(chǎn)re welcomed by all the people

D．cause trouble to our mother tongue

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A．A puzzled father

B．Do you speak Internetish?

C．Keep away from Internetish

D．Kong Long or Qing Wa?

The naive fellow has never met a thief and firmly believes that he lives in a world without thieves. And, the female thief fights against other thieves only to protect this guy's "daydream". Sound strange? Then go to the cinema to see what happens in "A World Without Thieves" (Tianxia Wuzei). It's the latest offering from Chinese director Feng Xiaogang. The film will hit mainland cinemas on December 9, 2004.

Adapted from the book of the same name, it tells the story of a couple, both of them skillful thieves, who find their consciences on a thief-filled train.

Wang Bo (Andy Lau, or Liu Dehua) is a master pickpocket from Hong Kong. Wang Li (Rene Liu, or Liu Ruoying) is a "talented" cheat from Taiwan. They're partners in crime and passion, and cheat their way across China, until one day they run into Shagen (Wang Baoqiang) at a railway station.

An orphan since birth, Shagen spends more time with wolves than with men. He believes in the basic goodness of human nature and is convinced that he lives in a world without thieves. Having saved up 60,000 yuan after five years of hard work, he decides to go back to his hometown, build a house and get married.

However, the train Shagen boards is full of thieves. Besides Wang Bo and Wang Li, there is a gang of highwaymen under the control of Uncle Bill (Ge You). While Bill's men are trying to get Shagen's savings, Wang Li takes it on herself to be his protector.

Feng Xiaogang has become a supplier of New Year's movies in China. For four consecutive years, he has caused a nationwide media excitement at the end of each year. That started with 1998's "The Dream Factory" (Jiafang Yifang) and ran to last year's "Cell phone" (Shouji).

With "A World without Thieves", Feng tries his hand at something beyond his standard humor. For the first time, he employs a lot of special effects.

"I do like comedy, but I also want to know where my limits lie," said Feng, "The film is an experiment. It has special skills, love between thieves, as well as the rediscovery of conscience."

Feng says the film is more like a fairy tale: It's two thieves trying to protect someone's "daydream". "You see, a fairy tale may expose more about life and human nature than another story. You don't change the world with a film, but you make people see and feel innocence, and that's my power. "

46. The underlined word “naive” means _________.

   A. lovely            B. interesting                             C. innocent               D. smart

47. Which of the following films is not directed by Feng Xiaogang?

A. Red River Valley                                          B. A World Without Thieves

    C. The Dream Factory                                           D. Cellphone

48. It can be inferred from the text that _________.

Feng Xiaogang has directed more than three films since 1998.

This film was first on show on December 9, 2004.

Wang Bo and Wang Li are in the charge of Uncle Bill.

Feng Xiaogang likes fairy tales.

49. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?

Introduction of Feng Xiaogang

Introduction of Liu Dehua

Brief introduction of Feng’s film — A World Without Thieves

Feng’s opinion about his film — A World Without Thieves

50. What’s Feng’s opinion about this film?

All the World is peaceful and perfect objects.

The power of the film is to make people see and feel innocence.

It’s only a fairy tale.

Let people rediscover their consciences by this film.
