One day, he gathered up all his courage and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10:00 a.m. and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where
he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an old man kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there
was something wrong with the car. Denson immediately went up to lend a hand to him. When Denson finished repairing the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Denson said there was no need to pay how and he just helped someone in need, and that he had to
rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office. It’s the least I could do. Please, I insist.” Denson agreed.
When he arrived at his destination, Denson found a long line of applicants（求职人）waiting to be interviewed. Denson still had some grease（油脂）on his shirt after repairing the car,
but he didn’t think he had enough time to wash it off or change the shirt. One by one, the applicants
left the interviewer’s office with disappointed looks on their faces. After a long time, Denson’s name
was finally called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking
the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?”Denson’s heart sank. “Wearing such a dirty shirt, how could I possibly pass this interview:” he thought to himself. Then
the interviewer turned around the chair, and to Denson’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out that he was the general manager of the company. “Sorr y I had
to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I make the right decision to have you as a member of the company before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congrat ulations!”

If you are reading this article in class, you are probably trying to read it quickly. You have
been taught to skim and scan, to ___75___key words so as to understand the main idea of the article
and the important points in the article. Skimming and scanning is a good method when you are pressed for time, such as when you are taking an exam, but, today, many people skim and scan everything and they have___76___the ability to enjoy reading.
In response to this, something called the “slow reading movement” has become popular. The
idea is that people should ___77___ their computers and mobile phones for half an hour or forty-
five minutes each day and enjoy reading a good book – slowly! In many cities there are even slow
reading clubs where members go to a safe, not to discuss books, but to sit quietly with each other,
drink coffee and just read.
Reading, of course, isn’t easy. You have to sit still, for one thing. And it can seem ___78___
when compared to the excitement of playing video games. But, for me, reading has been a
long0lasting ___79___ in my life. From the age of ten, when I got my first library card, I’ve enjoyed
the company of pirates and heroes, of evil criminals and clever detectives, of thousands of
interesting people I would have never met in real life. Reading provided me with escape, but it also
___80___me to understand the world around me. It was an education in a classroom that had no
walls.

Clue
Clue are the most important things in finding out the real criminal. Clues can be very small

Detectives use reasoning to find out what those clues truly mean, and put them together to find the truth.
Alibi （不在场证明）
An alibi is a special kind of evidence. It means a proof of your not being at the crime scene when the crime took place.

“Yes, madam, no problem.”
“I guess you are well-educated.”
“Y es, madam, I have completed my education. I have done my MBA courses.”
“Oh, wow! Why did you choose this job then, instead of going for a business or financial career?”
I should see her face i n the rear view mirro（r 后视镜）. She smiled and expressed her opinion.
I was really amazed.
Very politely, she said, “I have been enthusiastic（感兴趣的）about driving since I was a child. I have fulfilled my childhood dream. I do respect each and every job. I don’t mind whether a
job is good or bad in other people’s eyes. I want a job where I can get satisfaction. I received offers

from this job, I love driving! That’s it!”
