We were standing at the top of a church tower. My father had brought me to this spot in a small town not far from our home in Rome. I wondered why. “Look down, Elsa,”father said. I gathered all my courage and looked down. I saw the square in the center of the village. And I saw the crisscross (十字形) of twisting, turning streets leading to the square.“See, my dear,”father said gently.“There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can’t get to the place where you want to go by one road, try another.” Now I understood why I was there. Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the awful(糟糕的) lunches that were served at school. But she refused because she could not believe the lunches were as bad as I said.

At school the next day, I secretly poured my luncheon(午餐)soup into a bottle and brought it home. Then I asked our cook to serve it to mother at dinner. The plan worked perfectly. She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered(喷溅出)“The cook must have gone mad!”Quickly I told her what I had done, and Mother stated firmly that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day! In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson father taught me. I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago. I wouldn’t stop working until I tried every possible means to my goal.

Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur(创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids’ teeth, instead of destroying them. It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can’t I make a healthy candy that’s good for my teeth so that my parents can’t say no to it?” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain. With her dad’s permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria. Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore’s product—CanCandy. As CanCandy’s success grows, so does Moore’s credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she’s also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile. Meanwhile, with her parents’ help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn’t driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilicCandy’s profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore. 1.How did Moore react to her dad’s warning? A.She argued with him. B.She tried to find a way out. C.She paid no attention. D.She chose to consult dentists. 2.What is special about CanCandy? A.It is beneficial to dental health. B.It is free of sweeteners. C.It is sweeter than other candies. D.It is produced to a dentists’ recipe. 3.What does Moore expect from her business? A.To earn more money. B.To help others find smiles. C.To make herself stand out. D.To beat other candy companies. 4.What can we learn from Alice Moore’s story? A.Fame is a great thirst of the young. B.A youth is to be regarded with respect.

Five biggest career mistakes young workers make When you begin to dive into the working world, there are a few common mistakes you should try to avoid. 1. Whether it is asking for a raise or just voicing an opinion, it is important to stand up for yourself in the office. As long as you do it in a respectful and professional way, your colleagues will be impressed by your confidence. Goofing off(混日子) You may think no one is looking at what you are doing all day, but the fact is your computer screen can be seen by all who pass by.2. Even though your boss may seem relaxed, he is not going to appreciate an employee who seems to care more about his friend’s status updates than his actual work. Dressing inappropriately One thing that can either help or hurt you is how you present yourself. If you dress too casually, you could be sending the wrong message to your coworkers. Just because you have it doesn’t mean the office is the place to wear it. 3. Being late for work You could be the hardest worker in the office or do extra work at home, but if you are consistently late for work, you give off the impression that you are lazy.4.Your professional reputation is a vital part of getting ahead in your industry and being late for work might be unimportant, but could result in all your hard work being gradually ignored. Acting too confidently It is a common problem with young professionals. It is sometimes hard for recent college graduates to change from top-of-the-food-chain seniors to professional “freshmen.” 5.In addition, you must know your place in the company. A.If you want to be taken seriously, dress seriously. B.Talking unprofessionally. C.So it is important to limit the amount of time you spend on non-work-related sites. D.Being afraid to speak up. E.Sometimes, it can be difficult to be taken seriously as a young professional. F.Now that you are out of the college, you must remember to be modest. G.People notice who stays late and who comes in early and will form an opinion about you.
