B
I’m a standup comic. One day, a woman from The Daily News called and said she wanted to do an
article on me. When she had finished interviewing me for the article, she asked, “What are you planning to
do next?” Well, at the time, there was absolutely nothing I was planning on doing next, so I asked her what
she meant, pausing for a moment. She told me she was interested in me!
So I thought I’d better tell her something. What came out was, “I’m thinking about breaking the
Guinness Book of World Records for Fastest-Talking Female.”
The newspaper article came out the next day, and the writer had included my parting remarks
about trying to break the world’s Fastest-Talking Female record. At about 5: 00 p.m. that afternoon I
got a call from Larry King Live, which I had never heard of, asking me to go on the show. They
wanted me to try to break the record, and they told me they would pick me up at 8: 00—because they
wanted me to do it that night!
Then I sat down to figure out what on earth I was going to do on the show. I called Guinness to find
out how to break a fast-talking record. They told me I would have to recite something either Shakespeare
or the Bible. Shakespeare and I had never really gotten along, so 1 figured the Bible was my only hope. I
began practicing and practicing, over and over again. I was both nervous and excited at the same time.
Then I decided just to give it my best shot, and I did. I broke the record, becoming the World’s
Fastest-talking Female by speaking 585 words in one minute in front of a national television audience. I
broke it again two years later, with 603 words in a minute. My career took off.
People often ask me how I did that. I tell them I live my life by this simple philosophy: I always say
yes first; then I ask, “Now, what do I have to do to accomplish that?” Then I ask myself, “What is the
worst thing that can happen if I don’t succeed?” The answer is, I simply don’t succeed! And what’s the
best thing that can happen? I succeed!
What more can life ask of you? Be yourself, and have a good time!
24. Why did the author pause before telling her next plan?
A. She took little interest in the topic. B. She refused to share it with others.
C. She didn’t have any plan in her mind. D. She needed time to think over the plan.
25. What happened to the author after the newspaper article came out?
A. She was persuaded to set a Guinness record.
B. She was invited to give comic performances.
C. She succeeded in making a fortune overnight.
D. She finally agreed to make her parting remarks.
26. Which can indicate the author’s career took off?
A. She could recite the Bible. B. She received an interview.
C. She broke the record twice. D. She developed her philosophy.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Do nothing by halves B. Practice for perfection
C. Just say yes to yourself D. Always hope for the best
C
For top students from low-income families, the challenge of applying to colleges is particularly
difficult. 1 in 4 deal with all of that—the writing, the studying, the researching and applying—completely
on their own. One approach to make this whole process easier? Pair students up with an adviser.
That’s the idea behind CollegePoint, an initiative ( 举措) to help gifted students go to schools that
match their intellectual(智力的) ability. When a high school student takes a standardized test—the PSAT,
SAT or ACT—and they score in the 90th percentile, and their families make less than $80, 000 a year,
they get an email from the program offering them a free adviser. The advisers listen, guide and answer
students’ questions.
Connor Rechtzigel, an adviser in Minnesota, sees the importance of his role, for research shows that
low-income students are far more likely to undermatch because they don’t think they have what it takes to
