【要点综述】作者虽然有丰富的工作经验和高学历,但是却一直找不到满意的工作,因此总是抱怨自己的人生不如意。但是一次一个带有“BE HAPPY”字样的耳环让作者改变了对人生的思考方式。
21. B 从后面的“I could not find…work”知道,虽然作者有丰富的工作经验并且拥有硕士学位,但是仍然找不到令人满意的工作,是一个表示转折的让步状语从句。
22. C 与前面的从句呼应,指作者经验丰富、学历高,但是仍然找不到令人满意的工作。
干果种类图片23. A结合后面的“a school bus”以及“As I pulled the bus over to…a little girl…”可知作者是开校车来谋生的。
24. D 后面的“for I had lost my flat”说明了作者没有房子住了,因此只能和朋友住在一起,所以选living。
25. B 根据后面的“five interviews (面试) with a company”和“they called
to say I did not…the job”知道作者参加了五次公司的面试,但是被告知没有被录用,因此选B。
26. D从前面的句子,知道作者参加了五次面试,根据后面的“I thought painfully”可知作者没有被录用,即没有得到任何工作。
27. A 从前面的没有得到工作,再结合后面的“thought painfully”,可知作者想为什么自己的生活这么艰难呢?
28. B 根据前面的“As I pulled the bus over”可知作者是把车靠边停下来,所以是让学生们下车。
29. C saying作前面的handed这个动作的伴随状语,指小女孩一边递给作者一个耳环,一边说。
30. A 结合后面的“somebody claimed (认领) it”可知是小女孩告诉作者把这个耳环保存好,以防有人认领。
31. B hit在这里表示“突然想到”,其他的词无此用法。
32. B 这里指作者突然想到,自己一直以来只关注自己生活中的不好的方面,give attention to关注。
33. D 从前面的“what was going wrong with”可知是作者指自己生活中发生的不幸的事情。
34. A 从后面的“fifty things I was happy with”可知作者当场决定要列出一个让自己高兴的50件事情的清单来。make a list of “列一个……的清单”,是一个固定词组。
35. D 根据后面的“more things to the list”可知是作者决定再给这个快乐的单子增加数量。
36. C 结合下文的“She asked me”可知是那天晚上有人给“我”打电话。
37. A 根据下文的“a oneday lecture on stress (压力) management to 200 medical workers”中的“medic
al workers”可知是一个医院。
38. C 从后面的“a oneday lecture on”可知用give,表示“做关于……的报告”。
39. C 上文提到了“oneday lecture”,因此此处指作者在那里进行报告的那天很顺利。
40. D 作者认为自己改变了生活,是因为自己改变了思考的方式。

“I'm going to make you attractive,”said Mika Hill, gazing at the bald __16__ of the woman who was sitting before her. The woman once had long, __17__ ,dark hair. But alopecia(秃头症) __18__ her with just a little of it,and a shaken lfimage. Hill,a wig(假发)maker,was about to change that.
屈人之兵At 30, Hill knows from experience how a woman feels when she __19__ her hair. Her own hair fell out veral years ago __20__ lack of iron after giving birth.“I cried when I washed it,cried when I combed it,and cried when I looked into the __21__ ,”she says. Then she bought a wig. “It was too small,” she says,“but my __22__ went up dramatically.”
美国一号公路Hill,a former U.S.Navy electronics technician,enrolled(注册)in a wigmaking __23__ in New York.
Back her home in the Atlanta suburb, the mother of two children started making custom (定制的) wigs that she planned to __24__ for $300 to $800 each.
But many of her customers with alopecia and cancer couldn't __25__ that much,and their health insurance often didn't __26__ the cost. So Hill started giving the wigs away, eventually spending $10,000 of her own money on supplies and marketing. Last year,she and her friend Lita Warren __27__ Pink Barrette, a nonprofit organization that has __28__ about 60 wigs worth $30,000 to poor women.
Hill pays __29__ the donations with profits from her other custom products. __30__ , she and her husband have also spent much of their savings keeping the organization running.
Hill's clients can't thank her enough. Elyssa Montoya, a 34yearold Georgia businesswoman with alopecia,was too __31__ to be en in public with her __32__ thinning hair.“I didn't feel I could show my bald head outside. Thanks to Mika, I now have beautiful curly hair,and feel __33__ about mylf again.”
“Seeing their lfconfidence __34__ after they try on their wigs,”says Hill,“brings __35__ to my eyes. This is a mission for me—and a most rewarding one.”
