In 1959，when Jean Harper was in the third grade，her teacher asked them to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up．She poured her heart into her report and expressed her dream of becoming an airline pilot．Her paper came back with an"F"on it．The teacher told her it was a"fairy tale"．Jean was completely disappointed．As the years went by，Jean was beaten down by the discouragement．"Girls can't become airline pilots； never have，never will．You're crazy．"Finally Jean gave up．
In her senior year of high school，her English teacher was Mrs．Dorothy Slaton，a strict teacher with high standards．One day Mrs．Slaton asked this question，"What will you do in the future？"Jean felt a rush of the old enthusiasm （热情），and with excitement she wrote down the very old dream right away．
The next thing that Mrs．Slaton said changed the course of Jean's life．"I have a little secret for you．You do have unlimited （无限的） abilities and talents．When you leave school，if you don't go for your dream，no one will do it for you．You can have what you want if you try!"
The hurt and fear of years of discouragement disappeared suddenly．Jean felt thrilled and told her teacher about her dream of becoming a pilot．Mrs．Slaton slapped （敲） the desk top，"Then do it!"she said．
So Jean did．It didn't happen overnight．In her l0 years of hard work，even facing all kinds of difficulties，she never gave up her dream．
Eventually，Jean Harper became a Boeing 737 captain （机长） of the United Airline Company．

任务型阅读。阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。（每空一词)
The world is divided into two important parts. One half of the world is rich and the other half is poor. In the poor part, a lot of people never get enough to eat. In the rich part, many people eat too much. In one part, children are hungry and in the other, a lot of people are fatter and fatter and have to go on diets or do some exercise. For example, a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in the poorer countries.
The poor countries have some difficult problems. Sometimes the land is too poor to grow anything on. The land can get better, but people have to do a lot of things first. They should learn how to enrich their land and how to find water.
But rich countries have problems, too. Sometimes the air is too dirty to breathe and the rivers are too dirty to swim in or to take water. The roads and the streets are full of people and buses. Cars usually move very slowly. Noise is terrible. A lot of people do not have houses to live in. People must do something about these problems. We should do something to make the air and the rivers clean and build more houses. But it will take a long time.
