2 . Four Females Of Empowerment And Success

Given that the world has largely operated as a male-dominated society for most of human history, it comes as no surprise that women have faced lots of obstacles to succeed. But fortunately, times are changing. These four women overcame incredibly difficult barriers that enabled them to leave an everlasting mark.

Ellen Johnson Sirleaf: The First Female Head of State in Africa

When Ellen Johnson Sirleaf was elected president of Liberia in 2006, she made history by becoming the first female head of an African nation. Throughout her 12 years as president, she did a lot to help rebuild civil war-torn Liberia's economy and infrastructure, and was even the 2011 winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Benazir Bhutto: The First Female Prime Minister of Pakistan

Although Pakistan is a country where men traditionally hold power, this didn’t stop the voters from electing Benazir Bhutto as their prime minister, a first in the Muslim world. Among her contributions were championing women’s rights and improving social conditions for those struggling the most.

Jessica Cox: The World’s First Armless Pilot

The fact that Jessica Cox was born without arms didn’t stop her from achieving things that most people with arms are incapable of doing: namely, learning to fly an airplane. She did this by using her feet, which was how she performed other everyday tasks such as driving and typing! In becoming the world’s first licensed pilot without arms, she served as a powerful advocate for people with physical disabilities.

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了美国外交政策思想家亨利·基辛格的生平和影响。

4 . Henry Kissinger, one of the country’s most important foreign policy thinkers for more than half a century, enjoyed a worldwide reputation.

As a secretary of state and national security adviser to Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, Henry Kissinger played the major behind-the-scenes role in building the architecture that enabled more manageable relations with the Soviet Union, China, and major Arab nations. At the same time, he was closely associated with some of the most disputed U. S. foreign policy moves in recent decades, by promoting intensive bombing campaigns in Southeast Asia and repeatedly turning a blind eye to human rights abuses by governments perceived to be supportive of U. S. interests.

In America, the young Kissinger worked in a factory during the day and went to school at night, until he was drafted into the U. S. Army. After getting out of the army, he attended Harvard, where his 300-page undergraduate thesis titled “The Meaning of History” brought him to the attention of Richard Nixon. Over the next few years, he directed one of the boldest periods of diplomacy in U. S. history to strengthen its negotiating position. In 1971, Kissinger arranged Nixon’s historic visit to China.

Though he never worked directly under a U. S. president again after Ford left office, Kissinger’s influence was long-lasting. U. S. superpower relations to this day still bear his imprint, and he remained a sought-after voice on international affairs to the end of his life.

“There were other great secretaries of state and a long list of impressive historians, but no one who combined the two pursuits as Kissinger did,” said Richard Haass, president emeritus (荣誉退休的) of the Council on Foreign Relations.

“I remember walking down the street in Manhattan with him, and he would attract a crowd like a movie star, a rock star,” recalled David Rothkopf, who worked for a time as a managing director at Kissinger’s consulting firm. “Everybody, regardless of what they thought of Henry, wanted to see Henry, wanted to be with Henry.

1. According to the 2nd paragraph, which word can best describe Kissinger?
A.Brave.B.Aggressive.C.Controversial.D.Devoted.
2. What is TRUE about Kissinger according to the passage?
A.He shared a strong friendship with Richard Nixon.
B.He demonstrated diligence in his early work and education.
C.His thesis earned him a position at Harvard.
D.He is the boldest negotiator in U. S. history.
3. What is mentioned as Kissinger’s major achievement?
A.His promotion of human rights in Southeast Asia.
B.His academic thesis as a historian.
C.His everlasting legacy on international affairs.
D.His faithful service to President Ford.
4. Which section of a newspaper is the passage possibly taken from?
A.The World Ahead.B.Profile.
C.The Economist Explains.D.The World in Brief.

文章大意:本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了Michelle Obama的书描述她的个人生活与经历,作者在读完这本书后,因Michelle Obama善良和同理心而流泪。作者高度赞扬了Michelle Obama,她是作者在这个世界上见过的最热情、最有趣、最聪明、最脚踏实地的人之一。

7 . Look, I’m not a happy crier. I might cry at songs about leaving and missing someone; I might cry at books where things don’t work out; I might cry at movies where someone dies. I’ve just never really understood why people get all choked up over happy, inspirational things. But Michelle Obama’s kindness and empathy (同情) changed that. This book had me in tears for all the right reasons.

This is not really a book about politics, though political experiences obviously do come into it. It’s a shame that some will dismiss this book because of a difference in political opinion, when it is really about a woman’s life. About growing up poor and black on the South Side of Chicago; about getting married and struggling to maintain that marriage; about motherhood; about being thrown into an amazing and terrifying position.

I hate words like “inspirational” because they’ve become so overdone and cheese (俗气的), but I just have to say it — Michelle Obama is an inspiration. I had the privilege of seeing her speak at The Forum in Inglewood, and she is one of the warmest, funniest, smartest, down-to-earth people I have ever seen in this world.

And yes, I know we present what we want the world to see, but I truly do think it’s genuine. I think she is someone who really cares about people — especially kids — and wants to give them better lives and opportunities.

She’s obviously intelligent, but she also doesn’t gussy up her words. She talks straight, with an openness and honesty rarely seen. She’s been one of the most powerful women in the world, she’s been a graduate of Princeton and Harvard Law School, she’s had her own successful career, and yet she has remained throughout that same girl — Michelle Robinson — from a working class family in Chicago.

I don’t think there’s anyone who wouldn’t benefit from reading this book.

1. What is the main focus of Michelle’s book?
A.Her political experiences and opinions.B.Her personal life and experiences.
C.Her achievements as a powerful woman.D.Her efforts to motivate others.
2. Why does the author dislike the word “inspirational”?
A.It is overused and insincere.B.It reminds them of cheese books.
C.It is associated with political opinions.D.It is inapplicable to Michelle Obama.
3. What does the underlined phrase “gussy up” in paragraph 5 mean?
A.Forgets.B.Regret.C.Beautify.D.Swallow.
4. Which of the following can best describe Michelle Obama’s character?
A.Bossy and aggressiveB.Humble and honest.
C.Distant and image-loving.D.Ambitious and career-driven.

He never felt comfortable in a debate in Congress, or on any subject that had nor to do with everyday practical matters.
