1n 2007．five young people in the American state of Massachusetts developed an idea. The team knew that the world is filled with mobile phones．About eighty percent of all people are said to live within reach of a wireless telephone signal．
The idea was to use mobile phones and the Internet to connect job seekers with employers．The young people wrote a business plan and formed a company called Assured Labor．
Assured Labor won a development competition at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(MIT)．Three of the founders were graduate students there． ‘[来源:Zxxk.Com]
Assured Labor is an electronic market place．It has two parts．One is for the United States．That operation was launched in January in Boston．It links people with employers offering temporary jobs．
The other arm of the business is for developing markets．That operation is meant to help people get permanent jobs．A representative is currently building partnerships with universities，and international companies in Central America.
Assured Labor’s president L David Reich，says the companies now place job advertisements on radio or in newspapers．Some even drive around in cars with loudspeakers announcing that jobs are available．He says the companies are interested in having more modem hiring practices．
Through Assured Labor companies will list open positions on the Internet．People who think
they could do the job could reply by text messages or on their cell phones．

The employer chooses workers they would like to hire ,The company then sends the workers a text or e-mail message so they can respond quickly to an offer．
After a job is completed，the employer and employee rate each other, The rating is kept for future use．Assured Labor is not charging anyone，right now, but the plan is to have employers pay for the service．

The church seems cold this morning，even after a11 the people，friends and family，fill the
benches．I sit here in silence，in shock and denial．This was not supposed to happen．What about
our dreams，or our plans? We were going to raise our children，travel the world，and grow old
together．I’m only 37，a typical housewife．I don’t know if I can do all this alone---two children，no father．What do I do or say?
The faces of so many people confuse me as they come to pay their last respects．Some have real sorrow；I can see it in their eyes．The others seem to just say，“I told you so．”1110se famous last words：I—told—you一so．How I can’t stand them．And the pointing fingers as so-called family and so-called friends pick me out of the crowd for others to see．1 want to scream and wake up but I can’t do anything but sit there．How can they be so blind? I fell in love with a man．Love knows no boundaries．
He was a good man，hardworking，caring and kind．He was retired form the Navy and a
gentleman．He was sensitive to others’needs，the kind of man that knew what to do or say，how to humor any situation and calm everyone’s fears．I remember our first child was a big surprise to both of us．I remember when I told him the news．He fell off his chair，saying over and over in
disbelief．“But I'm almost sixty．” After a few months he started planning．our next and even doing his famous little dance whenever he discussed the idea．
A man，thirty years older than I，lies in a coffin．Flowers，the American flag and his VFW
comrades surround him，paying tribute(颂词)to him as the man he really was．And I sit alone
here，with our two children，in silence，praying that this cold morning at church is only a nightmare and 1 will awake to his loving arms again．
Our son，our first born，his joy and pride，sits to the right of me seeming just as confused as me I look over at him．How he looks like his father--blonde hair，tall and skinny——even his Irish
temperament(气质)and that naughty look in his eyes。He's wearing his father's watch．It's too big
for him but he refused to take it off．I know he’ll keep it safe．Our second，the little angel and
Daddy's little girl，lays in her stroller(婴儿车)in the aisle，sound asleep．She'll never remember the
man she called“Da”．
( )59．The man passed away，leaving his dearest woman to bring up their two children，the elder
of whom is a boy of about_____．

C
In 1997, a group of twenty British women made history. Working in five teams with four women in each team, they walked to the North Pole. Apart from one experienced female guide, the other women were all ordinary people who had never done anything like this in their lives before. They managed to survive in an environment which had defeated several very experienced men during the same time period.
    The women set off as soon as they were ready. Once on the ice, each woman had to ski along while dragging a sledge (雪橇) weighing over 50 kilos. This would not have been too bad on a smooth surface, but for long distances, the Arctic ice is pushed up into huge piles two or three metres high, and the sledges had to be pulled up one side and carefully let down the other so that they didn’t become damaged. The temperature was always below the freezing point and sometimes strong winds made walking while pulling so much weight almost impossible. It was also very difficult for them to put up their tents when they stopped each night.
    In such conditions, the women were making good progress if they covered fourteen or fifteen kilometres a day. But there was another problem. Part of the journey was across a frozen sea with moving water underneath the ice and at some points the team would drift (漂流) back more than five kilometres during the night. That meant that after walking in these very severe conditions for ten hours on one day, they had to spend part of the next day covering the same ground again. Furthermore, each day it took three hours from waking up to setting off and another three hours every evening to set up the camp and prepare the evening meal.
    So, how did they manage to succeed? They realized that they were part of a team. If any one of them didn’t pull her sledge or get her job done, she would endanger the success of the whole expedition (探险). Any form of selfishness could result in the efforts of everyone else being completely wasted, so personal feelings had to be put to one side. At the end of their journey, the women agreed that it was mental effort far more than physical fitness that got them to the North Pole.
63. What was so extraordinary about the expedition?
   A. There was no one to lead it.
   B. The women did not have any men with them.
   C. It was a new experience for most of the women.
   D. The women had not met one another before.
64. It was difficult for the women to cover 15 kilometres a day because ________.
   A. they got too tired                B. the ice was moving
   C. they kept getting lost            D. the temperatures were too low
65. What is the main message of the text?
   A. Motivation and teamwork achieve goals.
   B. Women can do anything they want.
   C. It is sometimes good to
