Jim, a successful businessman, told the experience of his childhood.

When he was 12 years old, his parents died. He was alone and didn’t get on well with others. People always laughed at him. No one showed          to him.

His only friend was a dog named Tige. He gave his dog enough to eat and drink, but sometimes he was not          to it. He didn’t know that an unkind word sometimes could cut one’s heart like a knife.

One day as he walked down the street, a young lady was walking in front of him. One of her bags dropped from her arms. As she stopped to          , she dropped other bags. He came to help her. “Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!” She said kindly, smiling.

A special feeling came to him. It was the first time that he had heard such kind words. He watched her          she went far away, and then he whistled（低语）to his dog and went directly to the river         .

“Thanks, dear! You are a nice little boy!” He repeated what the woman said. Then in a low         he said to his dog, “You are a nice little dog.” Tige raised its ears as if it understood.

“Hmm! Even a dog likes it!” he said. “Well, Tige, I won’t say anything unkind to you       .” Tige waved its tail happily.

The boy thought and thought. Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw         but a dirty boy. He washed his face carefully. Again he looked. He saw a          nice boy. He was amazed. From then on, he started a new life.

On a hot African morning, Leila was lying on her stomach and an elephant was walking towards her. Leila waited. Then she pushed the button on her camera. “And I got my best photo of an elephant ever, by lying under my car,” Leila explained. “I wanted to get close to the elephants, but of course this was dangerous; they had their babies with them. So every morning I used to park my car in the open near the path (小道). They used to take the same path every morning when they left the water hole. After a week, they were used to seeing my car. So the next morning, I lay under it and got my photo!”
Many of the best wildlife photos come from good planning. In Africa, photographers set up their hides (隐匿处) near water holes. They also set up hides near forest paths, as animals use the same paths every night. For bird-watching, many lakes have hides. Inside the hides, bird-watchers can watch all day in the shade (荫处) out of the wind and rain.
Good wildlife photos are needed for books, postcards, magazines and newspapers. But a success rate of 1 in 20 is good.
【小题1】Why did Leila lie under her car on the stomach?

Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own. My mom was one of those people.

My father died when I was nine months old. Mom and I lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she spoke the words that would change my life, “Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it.”

At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that I could walk again if I wanted strongly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school — walking on my own!

When the Great Depression (大萧条) hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support  both of us. At that moment, I decided never to be poor again.

Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point happened on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I wasn’t satisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they asked me an extra $2 for each child. That was too expensive for many American families. I told my wife that I was going to open a motel (汽车旅馆) for families that would never ask extra for children. There were plenty of doubters at that time.

Of course mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. But with my mother’s support and encouragement, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world — Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income (收入) of $ 1 billion a year.

You may not have started out life in the best situation. But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.
