There are many people who could be Olympic champions. It's easy to be great because great people will help you. I’d five million people could have me in the pole vault (撑杆跳) the years I won it, at five million. Men who were stronger and faster than I was could have done it, but they never a pole, never made the to pick their legs off the ground to try to get over the bar.
Greatness is all us. It’s easy to be great because great people will help you. What is fantastic about all the conventions I go to is the greatest in the business will come and share their ideas, their methods and their with everyone else. I have seen the greatest men open up and show young people exactly how they did it. They don’t .
I’ll never forget the time I was to break Dutch Warmer Dam’s record. I was about a foot his record, so I called him on the phone. I said, "Dutch, can you me? I seem to have leveled off. I can’t get any higher."
He said, “ , Bob, come to visit me and I’ll give you all I got.” I three days with the master, the greatest pole vaulter in the world. For three days, Dutch gave me that he’d seen. To make a long short, I went up eight inches. That great guy gave me the best that he had. I’ve found that sports champions and heroes do this just to help you become great, too.
Great people will share and will tell you their . Look for them, call them on the phone or buy their books. Go they are, get around them, and talk to them. It is to be great when you get around great people.

In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to 41 a different life. It was a transitional（过渡的）time in Daniel's life. I wanted to 42 him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the 43 time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked 44 the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar 45 played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him 46 and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words 47 me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 48 opportunities. How many times have I let such moments 49 ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have 50 to me. Or what he might 51 to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him? 52 as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always 53 never hearing him put his 54 into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so 55 to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world 56 , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was 57 of was the stubble（短须）on his chin as his face pressed 58 mine. What I had said to Daniel was 59 . It was nothing. And yet, it was 60 .

The purpose of a letter of application (求职信) is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state clearly the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have done. It should be 46 , human, personal and brief without 47 out any necessary facts.
In writing a letter of application, keep in 48 that things a possible employer is most 49 to want to know about are your qualification, your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. If the first few sentences 50 to win the reader's attention, the rest of the letter may not be 51 at all. Try to key your 52 remarks to the needs or interests of the employer, not to your own needs or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “ I saw your advertisement (广告) in today's newspaper”. You might say “ I have made a careful 53 of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives 54 your product and why they like it”.
Try to be clear about the kind of job 55 you are now applying for. College graduates looking for their first positions often ask “What can I provide in a letter?” Employers want experience---which, naturally, no beginners has. The answer is that everything you have ever done is experience .
It is important to write a good strong closing remark for your letter. 56 a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent 57 is to enclose (内附) a stamped, self-addressed envelope (信封) with your letter. That makes it easier for a possible employer to get in touch with you.
46. A. rough B. simple C. complex D. numerous
46. A. sending B. taking C. leaving D. picking
48. A. mind B. sight C. contact D. touch
49. A. probably B. possibly C. likely D. surely
50. A. need B. fail C. wish D. used
51. A. kept B. continued C. written D. read
52. A. opening B. closing C. puzzling D. surprising
53. A. decision B. interview C. study D. discussion
54. A. change B. make C. sell D. use
55. A. what B. which C. that D. when
56. A .Make B. Ask C. State D. Get
57. A. result B. decision C. promise D. Idea
