Koeler took special notice of the tall woman who was nicely dressed, but she was wearing ugly, thick-soled (厚底) shoes. Now the woman was taken to a room for questioning. There it was found that the soles of the shoes were hollow (中空的). They were opened. Some diamonds fell out on the floor. Their total weight was 3377 carats (克拉). The young woman broke down in tears. Then she told her story. For years she had dreamed of coming to live in America, she said. At last she had managed to get the papers she needed to come to the U.S. Then a strange man called on her. He said he would pay for her trip and give her one hundred dollars. All she had to do was to smuggle the diamonds past the U.S. Customs (海关).

Sitting is an art that isn’t getting passed along. People these days feel as though they have to be doing something. If they are not working, they are jogging, or playing tennis or golf, or taking courses to improve their minds or bodies-or they are parked in front of the TV. Sitting in front of the TV isn’t sitting- it’ s watching. People used to sit a whole lot. You would walk down the street or drive down the road, and there they would be, out on the doorsteps, sitting. You could go down to the store and sit on the bench out front in the summer or around the fire in the winter. There were sitting benches out in the town square. At the garage (车库), there were straight-backed chairs. There among the oilcans and tires and spare parts, you could kick back and sit. Houses used to have sitting rooms, where the grown-ups would go after Sunday dinner. Mom and Dad, Grandpa and Aunt Ruby would sit and digest chicken and talk about Aunt Ethel's illness, and how well the minister did today. Outside, the children would play, and the afternoon would pass by in a comfortable haze ( 悠闲的氛围 ). That sort of thing looks like doing nothing. A recharging battery (正充电的电池) doesn’t look as if it' s doing anything either. Sitting restores your soul. If you want to enjoy a truly full life, don’t just do something-sit there. |

Years ago, when I started looking for my first job, wise advisers advised, "Barbara, be enthusiastic (热情的)! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience. " How right they were! "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. "wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson.It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough. It is the inner voice that whispers, "I can do it!" when others shout, "No, you can’t!” It took years and years for the early work of Barbara McClintock, a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine, to be generally accepted. Yet she didn’t stop working on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping. We are all born with wide-eye, enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air, whatever their age. At 90, cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach. As the music flowed through his fingers, his stooped (弯曲的)shoulders would straighten and joy would reappear in his eyes. As author and poet Samuel Ulman once wrote, "Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.” Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or title or power. Patricia Mcllrath, retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Kansas City, was once asked where she got her enthusiasm. She replied, "My father, a lawyer, long ago told me, ‘I never made a dime until I stopped working for money.’" If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton of Wellsville, Kan was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended periods of depression that had trouble her for at least 30 years, and the quality of her work led one critic to say, "I am tempted to call Layton a genius." We can’t afford to waste tears on "might-have-beens". We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after "what-can-be". We need to live each moment whole-heartedly, with all our senses-finding pleasure in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden, the simple picture of a six-year-old, the beauty of a rainbow. |
1. The author holds the view that ______. |
A. enthusiastic people will never get old B. enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life C. enthusiasm is more important than experience D. enthusiasm can give people more success and fame |
2. The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that ______. |
A. music can arouse people’s enthusiasm B. enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeed C. enthusiasm can make people feel young D. enthusiasm can keep people healthy |

A. Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times. B. If you don’t have enthusiasm, you can achieve nothing. C. Enthusiastic people seldom consider money and fame. D. Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor. |
