Jane Fonda moved from being an Academy Award actress to a successful businesswoman. Her aerobics (有氧体操) workout videos have been sold around the world.
Athletes are constantly making greater and greater efforts to lower time for races;increase heights or distances.
The world of medicine has had its series of successes too. Christian Barnard performed several successful heart transplants. Other medical experts have achieved organ transplants. Throughout the ages, mankind has found treatment and cures for tuberculosis (肺结核) , cancer, and other diseases. A cure of AIDS might soon be discovered.
Age does not seem to slow down achievers. Tina Turner at 54 is still singing with great energy and attracting sell-out crowds wherever she goes.
At work, we go all out for achievements too. Success may mean organizing a conference more effectively and efficiently each year. Sometimes, it is not a pat on the back or the promotion that makes it worthwhile. Often it is the inner thrill and satisfaction of achievement, no matter how small it may be.
Aiming for success doesn’t mean you are greedy or dissatisfied. It is all part of gaining new experiences and dimensions in life. It finally makes you a more interesting and useful person in society.

Jane was worried. She had a job interview, and she wanted to look good. She decided to get some new clothes. The store owner, Pallas Hansen, helped Jane find a suit. But when she left the store, she didn't pay for the suit! How could Jane do this? She was in a special store called Career Closet in San Jose, California. Pallas Hansen and Charlotte Krumwiede started this nonprofit store to help women. They knew that many women don't find jobs because they don't have the right clothes for a job interview. Women who don't have a lot of money have to use their money to buy food and clothes for their children. They can't buy clothes for themselves. Pallas and Charlotte started the store in 1992 after they heard about a store like this in Chicago. Volunteers work in the store. Working women donate most of the clothes to the store. This makes it possible for the customers at Career Closet to get clothes for free. Career Closet has helped 2,500 San Jose women, but clothes aren't the only things women get at the store. They also get confidence. Jane is 36 years old. Her husband was hurt in an accident, and Jane needed a job to support her seven children. She went to Career Closet and got a jacket, a skirt, and a blouse. “The whole day made me feel special,” she said. Jane was a success at her interview, and she got the job. One reason why she got it was that she was wearing the right clothes for the workplace. Pallas says,” I love this job. Sixty percent of the women get jobs. It's like being a fairy god-mother.” 6. What do the women get besides clothes at Career Closet?
A、Confidence
B、Shoes
C、Money
D、Beauty

In 1922, Dick published his first book. He also married, in the same year, a woman named Jane Bobb. She was also a writer. The appearance of his most famous novel was in 1925. It was called The High Tower.
Although it was true that Dick had a natural talent for writing, he was also a compulsive drinker. Though a brilliant success in his youth, he never made the necessary adjustments for a maturing writer in an ever changing world. His later writings, Bladerunner, Killing Time, and The End Game, were less successful, so much that when he died in 1942 most of his books were no longer being printed and most people had forgotten about him.
His reputation in modern times is far greater than it was even during the time he was alive. This has been especially true since the film version of his famous novel The High Tower was, released.
We know about the. novels of Dick that ______.
A.His writing was influenced by black music
B.He described the Southern United States
C.His writings were about war
D.He wrote stream-of-consciousness style
SECTION B INTERVIEW
Directions: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.
Now listen to the interview.
听力原文:(Jane Zhang has an appointment with an academic advisor to discuss her plans for studying in Canada.)
Mrs. Dustan: Hello there. You must be Jane. Please come in. My name is Mrs. Dustan.
Jane: Hello, Mrs. Dustan. Pleased to meet you.
Mrs. Dustan: All right now .... let's see. Now, you're interested in attending university in Canada, Is that right?
Jane: Yes. And, I have a lot of questions to ask you.
Mrs. Dustan: Okay, but before I begin to answer your questions, I need to ask you a few questions first. Hmm .... now, your major is...
Jane: Engineering, Mechanical Engineering.
Mrs. Dustan: Right. And, where did you graduate?
Jane: I graduated from the Beijing Institute of Machinery in July 1998. I completed my Bachelor's degree.
Mrs. Dustan: Okay. Now, I'm assuming you'll want to continue studying in that field. Am I right?
Jane: Actually, I'd prefer to do an MBA if possible. But if I have no other choice, then I'll continue in Mechanical Engineering.
Mrs. Dustan: Okay. Now, are you familiar with the requirements for an MBA degree?
Jane: Yes, I think I need to do well on the GMAT, and I'll definitely need the TOEFL or IELTS, right?
Mrs. Dustan: That's right. You'll need at least 600 on the TOEFL or 6.5 on IELTS. In addition, you need to have completed a bachelor's degree too. Did you take the GMAT yet?
Jane: No, but I plan to take it in August.
Mrs. Dustan: The requirements for a Master's Degree in Engineering are a little different. You'll need to take the GRE and of course the TOEFL or IELTS.
Jane: I see. And, when do I start to apply?
Mrs. Dustan: The best time to start the application process is in November or December of the year prior to your intended year of study. Application forms are usually available in September or October.
Jane: Which schools in Canada offer the MBA degree?
Mrs. Dustan: Of the approximately 50 universities in Canada, 20 offer an MBA. Here's a small Booklet summarizing Canadian university programs. You'll find all the information on page 22.
Jane: Great! Thanks. And, how about tuition and scholarships?
Mrs. Dustan: Tuition for MBA programs has been steadily increasing. Some universities now charge the full tuition—meaning that there is no government subsidy. Those universities cost about$10,000 per year—and it's a 2 year program. Other universities are still government subsidized, so the tuition is only about $4500 per year. In terms of scholarships, usually the top 5 students entering the MBA program are given a generous scholarship. All other students have to pay the full fees. International students have to pay the full tuition—that's$10,000 per year.
Jane: Oh. Is it very difficult to get into an MBA program?
Mrs. Dustan: Yes, in fact the competition is very strong. MBA graduates have a pretty easy time finding a good job. So, many students are eager to do the program thinking it will guarantee them success in their careers.
Jane: Well, it sure does sound like an excellent way to start a promising future. Um, what is the school year like?
Mrs. Dustan: Classes begin in September each year and finish before Christmas. They resume after New Year and finish at the end of April.
Jane: And after April?
Mrs. Dustan: Why, that's your summer holiday!
Jane: Sounds great! I want to thank you Mrs. Dustan for all your help. I really do appreciate it.
Mrs. Dustan: You're very welcome. And, if you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me. You know my number, right?
Jane: I sure do. Thanks very much.
Mrs. Dustan: Goodbye.
