    The motivation to succeed comes from the burning desire to achieve a purpose. Napoleon Hill wrote, “whatever the mind of man can conceive (设想) and believe, the mind can achieve.”
    A young man asked Socrates （苏格拉底） the secrets to success. Socrates told the young man to meet him near the river the next morning.  When they meet, Socrates asked the young man to walk with him towards the river. When the water got up to their necks, Socrates took the young man by surprise and pressed him into the water. The boy struggled（挣扎） to get out but Socrates was strong and kept him there until the boy stared turning blue. Socrates pulled his head out of the water and the first thing the young man did was to gasp（大口喘气） and take a deep breath of air. Socrates asked, “What did you want the most when you were there?” the boy replied. “Air.” Socrates said,“ That is the secret to success. When you want success as badly as you wanted the air, then you will get it. There is no other secret.”

    "BANG !" the door caused a reverberation（回声）. It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and I on the other side.
    We were both in great anger. "Never set foot in this house again!" stormed father. With tears  welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.
    The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I walked aimlessly.
    A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.
    But now ... I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old.  We differ in our ways of thinking. He always puts his opinions of behavior on me. Whenever I do something wrong, he never turns a blind eye to it. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.
    I walked aimlessly on the streets, without an exact place in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to be with me. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived.
    I saw that all the lights were off except the father's.
    I thought to myself: "Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?" "Am I wrong?" I whispered, maybe... With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that there was no iron door between us at all. Love - it's second to none.
    小题1:Decide which is the best order of the following according to what happened in the passage.
    a. I opened the door and father was waiting for me.
    b. I had a quarrel with my father.
    c. I walked about in the street without any aim.
    d. I returned to my house and saw it was still brightly lit.
    e. Sadly I ran out into the street.
    A．b, e, d, c, aB．b, e, c, d, aC．b, e, a, c, dD．b, e, c, a, d
    小题2:What made the writer think of his childhood?
    A．The sight of the street lights.
    B．The sight of the empty street.
    C．The sight of a father with a child in his arms.
    D．The sight of light in his own house.
    小题3:What conclusion can you come to after reading the passage?
    A．The father treats his son in an unfair way.
    B．The father is actually kind to his son.
    C．The father is neither kind nor cruel to his son.
