I was never tired of heating their story．As a little girl，I’d sit beside my mom with their
wedding album spread across my lap，slowly turning the pages of 8 x l 0 glossy black and white
photographs．I’d trace my fingers along their faces，along that white wedding dress．
“Tell me again，”I said . “Tell me again about you and dad．”
And she’d smile and her eyes would crinkle(眯起来)and she’d get that loving look and then she’d
repeat once more Their Love Story．
I’d smile too and stare at that photo of my non looking SO beautiful and my dad so tall and
handsome．
“Your dad was tall and really good—looking as he stood by his classroom door greeting his
students．Besides coaching，he taught history and social studies．I often stole a few looks since my
classes were nearby．That year I had many conversations with ‘ Mr．Kehoe’，sometimes when he
had lunch duty，sometimes when I had cheerleading practice．He was appointed cheerleader sponsor
and I’d been a cheerleader for four years．
We were married that November during the Thanksgiving holiday．1 went from a graduate one
year to a teacher’s wife the next!
But part of the story that I loved most，that all my life I thought was magical and wonderful and
amazing and exciting and oh—so romantic．
So，what do you think ?Did God speak to me?"
I’d catch and hold my breath，then exclaim，“Oh，yes !God told you that you’d marry Dad!”
Now can you see why I loved heating Their Love Story ?And SO their wedding．Then their
marriage．Then their family．Three babies in three years，then a fourth. Then，what else would you
expect after heating the Voice of God—years and years and years of Happy Moments!
Now it’s come to this：60 years of marriage !

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
The world is filled with smart，talented and gifted people．We meet them every day．A few days ago，my car was not running well．I pulled it into a garage，and the young mechanic had it fixed in just a few minutes．He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine．I was amazed．The sad truth is，great talent is not enough．
I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn．I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100，000 a year．A business consultant who specializes in the medical trade was telling me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially．It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase，“They are one skill away from great wealth．”
There is an old saying that goes，“Job means ‘just over broke（破产）’”．And unfortunately，I would say that the saying applies to millions of people．Because school does not think financial intelligence is intelligence，most workers“ live within their means”．They work and they pay the bills．Instead I recommend young people to seek work for what they will learn，more than what they will earn．
When I ask the classes I teach，“How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald’s?” almost all the students raise their hands．I then ask，“So if most of you can cook a better hamburger，how come McDonald’s makes more money than you?” The answer is obvious: McDonald’s is excellent at business systems．The reason why so many talented people are poor is that they focus on building a better hamburger and know little or nothing about business systems．The world is filled with talented poor people ．They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger．

1．The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph that ．
A．he is just one of the talented people
B．he is ready to help others
C．he has a sharp sense of hearing
D．he knows little about car repairing
2．The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by ．
A．spend more than they can afford
B．do in their own way
C．live in their own circle
D．live within what they earn
3．Why do talented people earn so 1ittle according to the author?
A．They don’t work hard enough
B．They lack financial intelligence
C．They don’t make full use of their talents
D．They have no specialized skills．
4．The success of McDonald's lies in its ．
A．skills at making hamburgers B．good business systems
C．talented workers D．excellent service
5．The main purpose of the author is to tell us ．
A．how young people can find a satisfactory job
B．what schools should teach students
C．why so many talented people are poor
D．how McDonald’s makes much money
