Carolyn Stradley is the founder of C&S Paving Ine.(鋪路公司)in Atlanta,USA.In the following account,she recalls the job that challenged her1and skill but left her flying high.
“When the Atlanta Airport was under2 in 1979,we were a new company struggling to make it.National Car Rental wanted to have 2500 square meters of dirt paved3the cars could be on site4the airport opened,and the official opening was only ten days away!5other local paving company wanted to do the job,6it couldn’t be done in such a short time.”
“Because we were new and really needed the work,we were7to try harder.We gave National Car Rental our offer and8our best effort to get the job finished within ten days.We also9them that if we failed,they would be no worse off, 10they had plenty to gain if we succeeded.”
“We got the job and immediately went into11.Working at night needed lights,so I rented a machine to produce electricity for the site.Our12challenge was to keep the rock mixture13enough.All the available water wagons(灑水車(chē))were rented out for the airport construction,and we certainly couldn’t afford to buy a new one.14,I got a special 15to rent fire engine hoses(消防水龍帶)and connect them to nearby hydrants(消防);then I16held one of those hoses to17down the rock.”
“Those ten days were filled with challenges that18one creative idea after another.Nine days later,the night before the airport opened,National Car Rental was the 19company that had cars on the parking lot.”
“The key to our success was having the 20to take on any job and then being creative in our approach to getting it done.”

I grew up poor – living with six brothers, my father and a wonderful mother. We had1money and few worldly goods, but plenty of love and attention. I was2and energetic. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could3afford a dream.
My dream was to be a4. When I was sixteen, I could crush a baseball, throw a ninety – mile – per – hour fastball. I was also5: my high – school coach was Ollie Jarvis, who6me the difference between having a dream and showing strong belief. One particular7with him changed my life forever.
It was a summer and a friend recommended me for a summer8. This meant a chance for my first income – cash for a new bike and new clothes, and the9of savings for a house for my mother. The opportunity was attracting, and I wanted to10at it.
Then I realized I would have to11summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing. I was12about this.
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as13as I expected him to be. “You have your whole life to work,” he said. “Your14days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them.”
I stood before him with my head15, trying to think of how to explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth16his disappointment in me.
“How much are you going to make at this job?” he demanded.
“$ 3.25 an hour,” I replied.
“Well, is $ 3.25 an hour the price of a17?” he asked.
That18laid bare for me the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal. I devoted myself to19that summer, and within the year I was offered a $ 20,000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $ 1.7 million, and bought my mother the20of my dreams.

The native people said they3this creature and called it the “Yeti,”and they said that they had4caught Yetis on two occasions5none has ever been produced an evidence(證據(jù)).
Over the years, the story of the Yetis has6. In 1951, Eric Shipton took photographs of a set of tracks in the snow of Everest. Shipton believed that they were not7the tracks of a monkey or bear and8that the Abominable Snowman might really9.
Further efforts have been made to find out about Yetis. But the only things people have ever found were10footprints. Most believe the footprints are nothing more than11animal tracks, which had been made12as the melted(融化)and refroze in the snow.13, in 1964, a Russian scientist said that the Abominable Snowman was14and was a remaining link with the prehistoric humans. But,15. no evidence has ever16been produced.

“Early on I decided not to allow the1of others to stop me from becoming a musician. I grew up on a farm in northeast Scotland and began2piano lessons when I was eight. The older I got, the more my passion (酷愛(ài)) for music grew. But I also began to gradually lose my3.Doctors concluded that the nerve damage was the4and by age twelve, I was completely deaf. But my love for music never

“My6was to become a percussion soloist, even though there were none at that time. To perform, I7to ‘hear’ music differently from others. I play in my stocking feet and can8the pitch of a note (音調(diào)高低) by the vibrations (振動(dòng)) I feel through my body and through my9.My entire sound world exists by making use of almost every10that I have.”
“I was11to be assessed as a musician, not as a deaf musician, and I applied to the famous Royal Academy of Music in London. No other deaf student had12this before and some teachers13my admission. Based on my performance, I was
14admitted and went on to15with the academy’s highest honours.”
“After that, I established myself as the first fulltime solo percussionist. I

“I have been a soloist for over ten years.18the doctor thought I was totally deaf, it didn’t19that my passion couldn’t be realized. I would encourage people not to allow themselves to be20by others. Follow your passion; follow your heart. They will lead you to the place you want to go.”

The fictional Chinese-American detective Charlie Chan was the subject of popular books and movies for many decades. In recent years, however, the character has been criticized as an ill image of Asian-Americans.
Yunte Huang, an English professor at the University of California, says that’s not the case. He has been exploring the character and real-life policeman who inspired him.
Charlie Chan has been a familiar character to readers and film-goers, beginning in the 1920s. The detective solved crimes around the world in more than 40 films through the 1940s, and with the invention of television, found a new audience in the 1950s and 1960s.
Huang discovered Charlie Chan through books by American author Earl Derr Biggers, who created the character.
“One day, I happened to find two Charlie Chan novels. At that point I thought I knew that he was a negative character against Asians, but when I read the book,” he says, “I was immediately attracted. Ever since then, I’ve been a fan of Charlie Chan.”
As a fan of the books and films, Huang was surprised to learn that Charlie Chan was based on a real detective named Chang Apana, who was born to Chinese parents in Hawaii around 1871. Apana worked as a cowboy, and joined the Honolulu police force in 1898.
“He almost immediately became a local legend because as a former cowboy,” says Huang, “he would walk the most dangerous areas in Chinatown carrying a bullwhip（皮鞭）instead of a gun. He didn’t need that.”
Although some say the image of Charlie Chan, with his broken English, is embarrassing for Asian-Americans, Huang believes Chan’s broken English and unusual ancient sayings were part of his charm（魅力）.
“Let me just quote（引用）a few – ‘Actions speak louder than French,’ or ‘Mind like parachute (降落傘). Only function when open.’ Charlie Chan always owes these instructive sayings to Confucius’ eastern wisdom.
For Huang, the fictional Charlie Chan is highly entertaining, while the real-life policeman, Chang Apana, is a Chinese-American success, whose story is worth telling.
