When she saw me studying a photograph of my father on the sports ground of Cornell, she tore it up.“You cant say its not a great university, just because Papa went there.”“Thats not it at all. And it is a top university.” She was still holding the pieces in her hand. “But we cant afford to send you to college.”“I wouldnt dream of asking you for money. Do you want me to get a job to help support you and Papa? Things arent that bad, are they?”“No,” she said. “I dont expect you to help support us.”Father borrowed money form his rich cousins to start a small jewellery shop, His chief customers were his old college friends. To get new customers, my mother had to help. She picked up a long-forgotten membership in the local league of women, so that she could get to know more people. Whether those people would turn into customers was another question. I knew that my Parents had to wait for quite a long time before their small investment (投资) could show returns. Whats more ,they had not wanted enough to be rich and successful ；otherwise they could not possibly have managed their lives so badly.I was torn between the desire to help them and change their lives, and the determination not to repeat their mistakes. I had a strong belief in my power to go what I wanted. After months of hard study I won a full college scholarship（奖学金）.My father could hardly contain his pride in me, and my mother eventually gave in before my success.53.

According to the text, what was the author determined to do in that autumn? A. To get a well-paid job for himselfB. To improve relations with his motherC. To go to his dream universityD. To carry on with his fathers businessDEver since they were first put on the market in the early 1990s, genetically modified (GM, 转基因) foods have been increasingly developed and marketed in many countries in the world, mainly on the basis of their promise to end the worldwide food crisis. But can GM technology solve world hunger problems? Even if it would, is it the best solution? Despite what it promises, GM technology actually has not increased the production potential（潜力）of any crop. In fact, studies show that the most widely grown GM crop. GM soybeans, has suffered reduced productivity. For instance, a report than analyzed nearly two decades of research on major GM food crops shows that GM engineering has failed to significantly increase US crop production.Something else, however, has been on the rise. While GM seeds are expensive, GM companies tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides（杀虫剂）. On the contrary, US government data show that GM crops in the US have produced an overall increase in pesticide use compared to traditional crops. “The promise was that you could use fewer chemicals and boost production. But neither is true,” said Bill Christison, President of the US National Family
