26、While in college, Tim started to look for easy ways to make money. One of the opportunities he saw was gambling (赌博). He started learning about all forms of gambling. He got lucky enough to make $9,000, but sadly it didn’t last long and over the next year he lost all of that money. It was at this point that Tim realized that he needed to stop gambling and focus on learning about finance.
One day, he was talking to one of his friends about creating a business, and his friend turned him onto Quick Sprout. So he started reading every blog post on Quick Sprout in the hope that he could learn about how to become a successful businessman and meet some people through Quick Sprout that he could partner up with.
A year ago Tim read a blog post on Quick Sprout about another businessman by the name of Timothy Sykes. Tim visited Timothysykes.com and learned about his Millionaire Challenge program that taught people how to buy and sell penny stocks (低价股票). Tim thought it would be worth giving a try.
Tim spent the next few months learning from Timothy Sykes on how to trade stocks. After he felt that he had learned enough, he wanted to start trading. Within the first 6 months of using what he learned in the Millionaire Challenge program, he made over $40,000. At one point he even made $11,000 in 15 minutes.
Over the next 12 months Tim is on track to make even more money. So far things are looking good and he is already ahead of schedule. The Millionaire Challenge program has worked out so well for him and he is now starting to enjoy the finer things of life.

27、 Since the age of three, Chelsie Hill had dreamed of becoming a dancer. That dream nearly ended one night in 2010. Hill was in a car accident that put her in hospital for 51 days and left her paralyzed (瘫痪的). For most people, that would have destroyed any hope of a dancing career. For Hill, it was the beginning. Far from being a barrier (障碍), her wheelchair emboldened her. “I wanted to prove to my community — and to myself — that I was still ‘normal’,” she told Teen Vogue.
“Normal” for her meant dancing. With half of her body taken away, Hill had to move it with hands. It took a lot of learning and patience, but she still made it in her wheelchair with her non-disabled high school dance team.
After graduation from high school in California, Hill wanted to expand (扩展) her dance network to include women like her. She met online the women who had suffered various back injuries but shared the same determination with her.
Hoping to reach more people in a larger city and break down the false belief of wheelchair users, Hill moved to Los Angeles in 2014, formed a team of dancers with disabilities and named it the Rollettes. As she always believes, dancing on wheels can be just as good as foot-based dance.
In disabled dance competitions, all dancers from her team gave great performances and they were having fun.
Hill has achieved what many of us never will: her childhood dream. Every year she holds a dance camp for wheelchair users of all ages and abilities with an eye to helping them find their confidence.But the Rollettes has helped her find something else just as satisfying. In 2019,over 173 women from ten countries attended the Rolettes Experience. For most of these women, it was the first time they had felt they belonged .Edna Serrano told a reporter that being part of the Rollettes team challenged her to be more independent. “It even gives me the courage to take up driving.” she said.
【1】What does the underlined word “emboldened” in paragraph I probably mean?
A.Encouraged. B.Destroyed. C.Prevented. D.Deserved.
【2】Why does Hill hold the Rollettes Experience every year?
A.To realize her childhood dream.
B.To encourage the disabled to drive.
C.To become the heroine of wheelchair dancers.
D.To build confidence in more wheelchair users.
【3】What is the best title for the text?
A.Dancing for the Disabled B.An Amazing Experience
C.Dancing in Wheelchairs D.The History of the Rollettes
28、 What are charter (特许) schools? How are they different from traditional public schools in the United States?
Charter schools are a kind of public schools that receive a special charter or written rules, from a state government. The American state of Minnesota passed the country’s first charter school law in the early 1990s. Since then, charter schools have spread from coast to coast. There are more than 6,700 charter schools now, educating nearly 3 million students nationwide. Charter schools cannot require students to pay tuition for their education. The schools also cannot set admission requirements. If too many young people asked to be admitted, the school must choose its students through a lottery (抽签) system.
Charter schools are different from public schools in many ways. They often have flexibility in the kinds of classes and programs that they can offer. They often do not have to follow the rules public schools do. The charter school movement grew out of unhappiness with public schools.
Over time, different groups began backing the charter cause. Civil rights groups wanted schools that broke down barriers based on race or wealth. Parents wanted greater ability to choose where their children went to school. Some Americans said that competition between schools could improve the quality of education. The main idea was that increased flexibility in an education program would let charter schools better serve their students.
But not all Americans like charter schools. For over 20 years, critics (评论家) have argued that charter schools take money away from public schools, and may not serve students with special needs. Some civil rights groups have opposed charter schools. Some labor and union organizers disagree about whether charter schools are actually public schools.

29、 As the oldest of three children, I never had any hand-me-downs to wear like other poor kids. Instead, Mom got my wardrobe (行头) from neighborhood mothers. Imagine the fun other kids had when they saw me wearing their used clothing.
Perhaps my biggest challenge came from Charlie. As far as I was concerned, Charlie’s main fun was to make fun of me. During those years, I slowly learned to hate. I hated Charlie, but I also hated myself for not being able to change my situation.
But situations do change. That opportunity came after high school when I joined the Navy. The Navy made me a social equal for the first time in my life, and the GI Bill gave me a college education. Hard work and a few lucky career (职业) choices finally lifted me into the middle class. I found myself living the American Dream.
One beautiful summer afternoon, my friend and I celebrated Friday in Jackson’s Steak House. For the first time in almost twenty years, I saw Charlie. Not only did I see him, but he spoke to me. I could tell he didn’t recognize me, but I surely recognized my childhood tormentor (摧残者). His words were short, but I’ll never forget them. He said, “Sir, what kind of dressing would you like with your salad?”
The tables had turned. Charlie was calling me “Sir.” While hundreds of improper ideas raced through my mind, I could only give a two-word reply: “Blue cheese.” As much as I wanted to taste the sweet taste of revenge (复仇), I refused to do it. I wouldn’t put another person through what I had gone through as a child. It was time to put childish things behind me and make use of the new opportunity that life had given me. I left him a good tip and I didn’t say one word about recognizing him.
