The story of "Who Moved My Cheese?" was created by Dr.  Spencer. Johnson to help him deal with a difficult change in his life.  It showed him how to take his changing situation seriously but not take himself so seriously.

When his friends noticed how much better life had become for him, and asked why, Dr. Johnson shared his  "Cheese"  story.  Many later said how greatly the story had helped them to keep their sense of humor, to change, and to gain something better, too.

Twenty years after the story was created,  "Who Moved My Cheese?" was finally published. It soon became a No.1 international best seller,  with one million hardcover copies in print within the first sixteen months and over ten million copies within the next two years.

Some critics (批評(píng)家)  do not understand why so many people find the book so valuable. They say the story is simple enough for a child to understand, and it insults (侮辱) their intelligence. Some even fear it suggests that people should mindlessly accept unnecessary changes forced upon them by others, although that is not in the story. 

The author said that both the fans and the critics are "right" in their own way. It is not what is in the story of "Who Moved My Cheese?" but how you understand it and apply it to your own situation that gives it value.

Hopefully the way you understand the story of "Who Moved My Cheese?" and the way you put it into action in your life will help you find and enjoy the "New Cheese" you deserve (應(yīng)得).

60. Why did the book "Who Moved My Cheese?" become a best seller as soon as it was published?

A. Because it is simple and easy to read.

B. Because readers can learn a lot from it.

C. Because the writer is quite famous.

D. Because it has many interesting stories~

Some people don't like the book because they think that__________.

A. it is too simple for adults to read

B. the author aims to insult them

C. there are many wrong ideas in it

D. the author's intelligence is too high

Which of the following is NOT true about the book?

A. The author's friends were interested to know why life became better, for Spencer.

B. The author agreed with both the fans and the critics of his book.

C. Some people worry the book may have a bad effect on readers.

URBANA, ILL. (AP)--Mike dropped out of college to support his pregnant(懷孕的) girlfriend and now works as a manager of a trucking company, Lynn graduated with honors from Harvard University and was hired as a lawyer with a top law firm in a major city. What do these two people have in common? Ten years ago they were both high school valedictorians (致告別辭者).
A University of Illinois study follows the lives of 81 valedictorians and salutatorians (致詞的學(xué)生代表) who graduated a decade ago from public and private high schools in the state.
Tales of Success and Failure
The study found tales of success and failure. The research on 46 women and 35 men found that some were doctors and scientists, one was a drug addict, another was a waitress with emotional problems.
"There is a popular idea about people who do well in school doing well in life," said Terry Denny, professor of education. Denny conducted the study with Karen Arnold, a former graduate student of Denny' s who is now a professor at Boston College. Denny and Arnold contacted the 81 students before graduation, and then followed up with interviews nearly every other year. They also sent them questionnaires in the mail.
Varied Careers
One-third of the students are lawyers, or have a doctorate. Nineteen are in business and 15 are engineers or computer scientists. Others include a farmer, a stock broker, and an aerobics instructor.
Arnold says many of the students have only average positions in the work world and that "most are not headed for greatness in their careers." Denny, however, says that it is too early to make such predictions. "Who expects someone to be on the Supreme Court at the age of 28 or to be the discoverer of an important scientific invention right after college?" he said. "These students are just getting started in life. They are just beginning to find out what life is all about."
【小題1】What can we conclude from Paragraph 1?

A.Mike got married before he went to college.
B.Lynn was honored by a law firm in the city.
C.Mike was not so lucky as Lynn after graduating from college.
D.Mike and Lynn both graduated first in their high school class.
【小題2】According to the article Denny is probably older than Arnold because      .
A.Denny was her professor
B.Arnold did well at school.
C.Denny interviewed some students
D.Arnold helped Denny in the research
【小題3】What is probably the best title for the article?
A.Successful Careers for College Graduates
B.Success in Education Predicts Success in Later Life
C.High School Honors Not Always Key to Life Success
D.A study on Successful Jobs and College Graduates
【小題4】Who probably wrote this article?
A.College graduatesB.Reporters
C.Professors and researchers D.Teachers
