When other teens were studying or going out, she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, “Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story”, shown in late April.Liz Murray, a 22-year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that loss became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it.Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets. “What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other way of being. I had only experienced a small part of the society,” she wrote in her book Breaking Night.She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe living environment, to encourage herself that “next to nothing could hold me down”. She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. “I love my parents so much. They are drug addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time.”Liz wants moviegoers to come away with the idea that changing your life is “as simple as making a decision”.61. In which order did the following things happen to Liz?a. Her mother died of AIDS. b. She worked at a petrol station.c. She got admitted into Harvard. d. The movie about her life was put on.e. She had trouble finding a place to sleep.A. b, a, e, c, d B. a, b, c, e, d C. e, d, b, a, cD. b, e, a, d, c62. The main idea of the passage is _.A. how Liz managed to enter Harvard University B. the hard time Liz had in her childhoodC. why Liz loved her parents so much D. how Liz struggled to change her life63. What actually made her go towards her goal?A. Envy and encouragement. B. Willpower and determination.C. Decisions and understanding. D. Love and respect for her parents.64. When she wrote “What drove me to live on.I had only experienced a small part of the society”, she meant that _.A. she had little experience of social life B. she could hardly understand the societyC. she would do something for her own life D. she needed to travel more around the worldBAfter 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie. She said, “I love you, but I know this other woman loves you too, and would love to spend some time with you.”The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit was my MOTHER, who had been a widow for 19 years, but the demands of my work and my three children had made it possible to visit her only occasionally. That night I called to invite her to go out for dinner and a movie.“Whats wrong, are you well?” she asked. My mother is the type of woman who suspects that a late night call or a surprise invitation is a sign of bad news.“I thought that it would be pleasant to spend some time with you,” I responded. “just the two of us.” She thought about it for a moment, and then said, “I would like that very much.”That Friday after work, as I drove over to pick her up, I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her house, I noticed that she, too, seemed to be nervous about our date. She waited in the door with her coat on. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to celebrate her last wedding anniversary. She smiled from a face that was as radiant as angels.“I told my friends that I was going to go out with my son, and they were impressed.” she said, as she got into the car. “They cant wait to hear about our meeting.”We went to a restaurant that, although not elegant, was very nice and cozy. My mother took my arm as if she were the First Lady. After we sat down, I had to read the menu. Her eyes could only read large print. Half
