His biggest ambition in life was to be a writer. “I never wanted to be anything else,” he says. “I was ten or el even when I saw Gone with the Wind and I wrote my own Civil War story.”After earning a degree in creative writing at Carnegie Mellon University, he got a job at a newspaper in Orlando, Florida. He made his mark with his article on the rough working conditions endured by the people inside the Mickey and Minnie costumes at Walt Disney World. Later he became a staff writer for the Wall Street Journal.In 1988, when the famous advice columnist, Ann Landers, quit her job at the Chicago Sun-Times, the paper launched a nationwide contest to find her replacement.

All of a sudden the building shook and the elevator stopped and began to swing to and fro. Although the men were not aware of it, they had only 100 minutes to get out of the damaged tower before it would crumble to dust.Soon smoke began coming into the elevator. The men realized that something was wrong. They forced the doors open only to find a wall in front of them! The wall had the number 50 on it and they knew they were at the 50th floor. But their elevator normally did not stop there, so there was no opening for them to escape. Jan decided that they would have to make their own.Knowing that the wall was made of a material that could be cut through, Jan grabbed his 18-inch squeegee, and began chopping away at the wall. When he felt tired, others helped. Starting with one small hole, they cut through the three-inch deep wall and then widened it. Then they kicked the wall, two at the same time. The wall cracked apart. They saw before them a 2-by-4 inch metal beam and a tile wall! Refusing to give up, the desperate men bent the beam, knocked a hole through the tiles, then made the opening big enough to squeeze through. Astonished, firefighters took them to the nearest staircase and they ran down flight after flight. By 10:23, when Jan and the others emerged on the street, they had used up 95 of the 100 minutes they had. Five minutes later, the North Tower crumbled.全新版大学英语听说教程(2)学生用书(虞苏美 )答案 test1，2 答案.docxtest1 1-8bcbcbcab 9-12 dbdc13-15cbd16stocks17exhibition18techniques19activities20research21modem22sof tware23Delivery time for email from Europe to the USA is about 1o seconds.24 What's really extraordinary about the Internet is the amout and variety of information available.25 Services are also available than allow you to do your banking,reserve airline tickes, and even shop for a Mother's Day,26-28 cdc29-32ccad 33-35bca TEAT21-8dcdcdbca9-11dda12-15bcbc 16forecast 17unusual 18Fortunaitely19 extreme20rarely21global 22rush23People enjoy discussing the snoe ,complaining about the cold 24Contrary to popular opinion, it does not rain all the time.25 Thanks学海无涯to the rain,Britain has a richcountryside, which is famous for its deep green color .26-28adb29-31bac32-35cadb。
