My dad, Greg Newman, had wanted to be a race car driver, but things didn’t work out for him. So I guess having a son who could become a race car driver was the next best thing. Don’t get me wrong-Dad didn’t push me into racing. In fact, when I was about 10 years old, my dad was afraid that driving a car wasn’t my dream.So he took the racing away from me.I wasn’t very happy with that decision. It wasn’t long before Dad realized that racing was what I loved.

At four, Dad bought me my first Quarter Midget (袖珍赛车) and that’s really where it started

for us. Back then, Dad coached me.He would stick out (伸出) his foot in the path of the race car, and then tell me to exactly hit his foot. By repeating this again and again, Dad believed that I would be faster and sharper on the race track.

Dad worked really long hours at his car repair business to make money so that I could race each weekend. I can remember that every night before he turned off the lights in the garage, Dad would tell me: “Don’t forget to kiss your race car good night.” He was trying to teach me that if I show respect, it’s returned. He wanted me to show thankfulness and respect for my race car and for all the hard work that we and many others had put into the dream.

My dad, my mom and my sister gave up a lot of things to help me race. For us, there was no better moment than winning the 50th running of the Daytona 500 in 2008. That evening in February 2008, I knew I had gotten a good push. I could hear the excitement. My father couldn’t speak a word, and when he got to Victory Lane (车道), he nearly knocked me over and gave me such a big hug. 41. Why did Greg Newman stop his son to race when his son was 10 years old? A. Because he thought racing was dangerous. B. Because he worried that his son didn’t like racing. C.

Not all great meals come from restaurants. Some are served from carts and stalls, and eaten on the go. So-called street food is not only delicious, but can be found in nearly every country, rich or poor, says Carla Diamanti, co-author of Street Food: Authentic Snacks from Around the world. “It’s a way to get to know the people and the flavor of a place,” says the Italian writer, who has nibbled her way around the globe. She shares some favorite snacks -----and snacking places with us. Naples, Italy Pizza:

Pizza may be the closest thing to a global food, but Diamanti says there’s nothing like the way it’s prepared in Naples. The dish is often ordered from a window counter and quickly baked for customers. If you’re eating it on the go, you fold it up for pizza al fortafoglio, literally wallet style. “Our pizza is quick and simple,” she says. www.inaples.it New York: Hot dogs

When foreigners first visit America, one of the first things many want to try is the country’s typical snack food, the hot dog. “It’s like the flag of America ---- both inexpensive and democratic,” Diamanti says. “ You expect to see kids queuing at a hot dog stall.” 212-484-1200; www.nycgo.com Japan: Bento boxes

Diamanti says the best time and place to eat this portable Japanese meal is under a blooming cherry tree in the spring. Bento boxes are filled with different dishes:often fish meat,pickled vegetables, rice

or tofu. “It’s really just a taste,” she says. While the containers are often elaborate wooden serving trays, they can be also cardboard boxes ordered to go.212-757-50; www.jnto.go.jp Jamaa el Fna Square, Marrakech, Morocco: Food stalls

When the sun begins to set, this central square comes to life as crowds gather to sing, dance and eat. Hundreds of people cooking at the same time,” Diamanti says. 212-221-1583; www.visitmorocco. com.

When I was nine year old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish white I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!”I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?

As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on

fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids (眼皮) and the sun hum their eyes. The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.

When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like salespeople.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.

51. Why was the author upset in the fishing trips when he was nine?

A. He could not catch a fish. B. His father was not patient with him.

C. His father did not teach him fishing. D. He could not influence a fish as his father did. 52. Why did the author’s father really mean?

A. To read about fish. B. To learn fishing by oneself. C. To understand what fish think. D. To study fishing in many ways. 53. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found ___________.

A. in deep water on sunny days B. in deep water on cloudy days C. in shallow water under sunlight D. in shallow water under waterside trees 54. After entering the business world, the author found .

A. it easy to think like a customer B. his father’s fishing advice inspiring C. his first boss’s sales ideas reasonable D. it difficult to sell services to poor people 55. This passage most likely comes from ___________.

A. a fishing guide B. a popular sales book

C. a novel on childhood D. a millionaire’s biography
