When I was approached with the idea of trying to create a landmine(地雷) campaign, we were just three people in a small office in Washington, DC in late I had more than a few ideas about how to begin a campaign, but what if nobody cared？ What if nobody responded？ But I knew the only way to answer those questions was to accept the challenge.
But if I have any power as an individual, it&39;s because I work with other individuals around the world. We are ordinary people--Jemma from Armenia, Paul from Canada, Christian from Norway and thousands more-who have worked together to bring about extraordinary change. The landmine campaign is not just about landmines--it&39;s about the power of individuals to work with governments in a different way.
I believe in both my right and my responsibility to work to create a world that doesn&39;t think highly of violence and war, but where we seek different solutions to our common problems. I know that holding such beliefs is not always easy or comfortable--particularly in the post-9/ 11 world. But I believe that life is about trying to do the right thing.
Most people tend to get caught up in going to college, then getting a job, buying a house and paying the loan. Somehow, I’ve had the desire--and the drive--to do things a bit differently. If enough ordinary people back up our desire for a better world, I believe we can accomplish extraordinary things.

C.didn’t know she would work for landmine campaign

Why did the author create a landmine campaign？A.Because she was encouraged by her colleagues
B.Because she got inspiration from protecting her brother
C.Because it was her duty to remove landmines
D.Because she was interested in whatever others disliked
What is Paragraph 3 mainly about？A.The author had made many foreign friends
B.The landmine campaign had spread all over the world
C.Many individuals join the landmine campaign to create a better world
D.The author’s friends joined her in fighting against the government
What can be inferred from the text？A.The present world is full of violence and war
B.Going to a famous university is the author’s belief
C.Most people take war and violence for granted
D.Settling problems peacefully is the author’s belief
Second, people also learn that such【C8】______of cause and effect are probabilistic in nature. That is, the effects occur more often when the causes occur than when the causes are【C9】______, but not al ways.【C10】______, students learn that studying hard produces good grades【C11】______most instances, but not every time. Science makes these concepts of causality and probability more clear and【C12】______techniques for dealing with them more【C13】______than does causal human inquiry. In looking at ordinary human inquiry, we need to【C14】______between prediction and under .standing. Often, even if we don't under stand why, we are willing to act on the basis of a demonstrated【C15】______ability.
Whatever the primitive drives that【C16】______human beings, satisfying them depends heavily on the ability to predict future circumstances. The attempt to predict is often played in the【C17】______of knowledge and understanding.

What is not so widely known is that this special relationship often acts as brake on twins' intellectual development. As they are partly isolated in their own private world, twins communicate less with adults than do other children. The verbal ability of a four-year-old twin is typically six months behind that of a non-twin. The problem can be particularly severe in a deprived home, a one-parent family for example, where there is little stimulation for children anyway.
Such children, while capable of mutual comprehension in a private language, often remain in comprehensible to outsiders and thus at a severe educational disadvantage. The only solution to the problem, cruel though it may seem, is to separate the twins thus forcing them to acquire ordinary speech helped and guided by sympathetic parents and teachers.
Many people don' t know that ______.
A．twins understand each other very well
B．twins are slow to learn to talk
C．twins are unlikely to do less well at school than other children
D．there exists more communication between twins
Managing Oneself
We live in an age full of opportunities: If you are smart enough,and have got ambition and keep pushing forward, you can rise to the top of your chosen profession, no matter where you started out.But with opportunity comes responsibility. Companies today aren' t managing their employees' careers. Professional workers must be their own chief executive officers (CEO) . It' s up to you to strive for your place, to keep yourself engaged and productive during a working life that may last around 50 years. To do those things well, you' ll need to have a deep understanding of yourself — not only what your strengths and weaknesses are, but also how you learn, how you work with others, what your values are, and where you can make the greatest contribution, because only when you operate from strength can you achieve true excellence.
History' s great achievers — Napoléon, da Vinci, and Mozart — have always managed themselves. But they are so unusual both in their talents and in their accomplishments as to be considered rare exceptions. Now, most of us, even those of us with modest talents, will have to learn to manage ourselves. We will have to learn to develop ourselves. We will have to place ourselves where we can make the greatest contribution.And we will have to stay mentally alert and engaged during a 50-year working life, which means knowing how and when to change the work we do.
句子正确选择下拉选项框为“T”； 句子错误选择下拉选项框为“F”。
（1）Companies today are responsible for employee' s career.
（2） It is the CEO who decides your place.
（3） You need to understand your company well so that you can do things well.
（4） Understanding yourself means knowing well about your strengths,weaknesses, your values, how you learn, how you do with others and so on.
