But I also want you to understand that a dream itself comes from hard work, some good luck and good timing. Girls, here are some words of wisdom as you make your way in the world.Firstly, be open-minded to changing your path along the way. In high school, I wanted to be a politician. I left my hometown and went off to college in Washington, D. C. There, I discovered that I loved to support women. It taught me that I'm creative, a strong leader and great at marketing. As a result, I moved on to be the head of a national healthcare nonprofit （非营利机构）.Becoming a mother while in that job opened my mind to launching a breast pump bag business. Now I run a highly successful company that I started up on my own. In my opinion, you need to figure out what you are good at and what you are passionate about. Keep an open mind: the initial path you choose may lead you into other areas. Don't waste your money or time, but you can change what you are doing based on what you are learning about yourself.Secondly and more importantly, remember that failure is vital to your success. I won't tell you to feel good about failure. Failure can be heartbreaking. But I will tell you that every failure I've had along the way absolutely made me better. Failing the math exam in high school and going to summer school was embarrassing but Fve never failed an exam again.Being deprived（录U夺）of the job for a significant job opportunity that I was more than qualified for because of unfair assumptions hurt me but I went out and got a big job at a national organization at age 27. It's okay to get angry! Take that and turn it into positive action.I'm proud to be a role model to you as a mom and an entrepreneur（企业家）.I hope I inspire you to believe that you can be anything you want and you can have anything on your list. It will be my pleasure to watch your lives unfold before my eyes.Love,Your Mom1、The author has achieved her final goal as.A. a politician B. a social worker C. an entrepreneur D. the head of an organization 2、What does the author think of failure along the way in life?A. Failure is important to success. B. Failure is never positive.C. Failure is always heartbreaking. D. Failure makes people embarrassed.3、 The author was once deprived of a significant job opportunity because.A. she lacked work experience B. she was wrongly judged as unfit for itC. She was too young D. she was not as qualified as others 4、Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. A mom9s advice B. A mom9s life storiesC. Be wise in choosing your career D. How to be successful in life Text 2The New York See It All Tour is exactly what it sounds like: an all-inclusive guided tour of New York City.Central ParkOne of the most famous parks in the world, Central Park is a man-made wonder.

They will work for any company which hires them for just a few hours or for several weeks in a war zone. But if a freelance cameraman is injured in the course of the job, the TV company is not responsible for him. The freelancer must survive on his own.“TV will always need hard, vivid moving pictures which are fresh, but these companies feel uncomfortable with large numbers of employees on their books J explains Nik Growing, once foreign editor for Britain's Channel 4 News and now a BBC news presenter.“By hiring freelancers, they can buy in the skills they need only when they need them.
