Molly Wilson had been a dancer and a mother for many years when she decided to sail round the world to raise money for charity.
As a child she had trained as a ballet dancer, but at 15 she had grown too tall for classical ballet, so she became a member of a pop dance team.
She got married, and after she had children she retired from show business to bring them up. They grew up, and when they were 18 they left home.
She says, “When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I was bored because the children had left home. He was also worried because I had never sailed before. I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race.
They had taken part in it, but they had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia. I wanted to do the whole ten-month journey.”
Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadn’t prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced. She tells one story. “One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold. I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck. One of the men couldn’t move because he had broken his leg. They were taken to hospital by helicopter. That was the worst time.”
By the end of October last year, she had raised more than £50,000 for charity.
She says, “Sometimes I ask myself, what did I do? How did I do it? But then I think, it’s the same as being a dancer. Before I left on the trip, I had trained hard. I had got very fit and had prepared myself completely. Then on the trip I was simply a good team member.”
1.When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I felt_________.
A. dissatisfied because I had nothing better to do at home
B. annoyed because I had to wait long for my children to come back home
C. sad because all the children left me when they grew up
D. happy because I could do something I was interested in instead of taking care of children
2.The word “section” in paragraph 5 most probably refers to _________.
A. group of people B. part of the training
C. part of the job D. part of the route of sail
3.Which of the following is closest in meaning to “rough” in Para. 5?
A. not exact B. not smooth because of huge waves
C. difficult D. pleasant
4.The last paragraph suggests that _________.
A. she should be kind to other team members during the trip
B. many years of dancing had already prepared her for the sail completely, so she needn’t do anything before the journey
C. the qualities she needed for the trip were the same as those for a dancer
D. she should not forget dancing during the trip
MONTREAL (Reuters) – Crossing the US-Canada border to go to church on a Sunday cost an American ＄10,000 for breaking Washington’s strict new security（安全）rules.
The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert, who lives on the Canadian border. Albert often crosses the border like the other half-dozen people of Township 15. The nearby Quebec village of St. Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church. There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5,530-mile border between Canada and the US, which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings.
As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Canada as usual. The US customs（海关）station in this area is closed on Sundays, so he just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May, following a tightening of border security. Two days later, Albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him he had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally（非法）.
Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 Americans in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs stations are closed, but the US stopped a similar program last May. That forces the people to a 200-mile detour along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint.
Albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a Sunday church since. “I feel like I’m living in a prison,” he said.

A man came home from work late again, tired and annoyed, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door. "Daddy, may I ask you a question?" "Yeah, sure, what is it?" replied the man. "Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?" "That's 1of your business. What makes you ask such a thing?" the man said angrily. "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?" "If you 2know, I make $20.00 an hour." "Oh," the little boy replied, head bowed. Looking up, he said, "Daddy, may I 3$10.00 please?" The father was angry. "If the only reason you wanted to know how much money I make is that you can borrow some to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, 4you go straight to your room and 5. Think about why you're being so selfish. I work long, hard hours everyday and don't have time for such 6games."
The little boy 7went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even 8about the little boy's questioning. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money. After an hour or so, the man had 9down, and started to think he may have been a little 10on his son. Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10.00 and 11, he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the 12of the little boy's room and opened it.
"Are you 13, son?" he asked. "No, daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy.
"I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier," said the man.
"It's been a long day and I took my anger out on you. Here's that $10.00 you asked for."
The little boy sat straight up, "Oh, thank you daddy!" he yelled (大声喊) .
Then, reaching under his pillow, he 14out some more crumpled up (皱的) bills. The man,15that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at the man. "Why did you want 16money if you already had some? " the father complained.
"Because I didn't have 17, but now I do," the little boy replied.
"Daddy, I have $20.00 now. Can I 18an hour of your time?"
19$20.00 worth of time with someone you love...just a short reminder to all of us working so hard for our living. 20, let us not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some quality time with those who really matter to us.
