I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,

introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film - it wanted somebody as well known

as Paul — he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to

their agents or the studio powers.

The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root

in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were

respectful of craft(技艺) and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the

qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other — but

always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心) of our relationship off the screen.

We shared the belief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back — he

with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance

and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us

together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.

I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was,

and we didn’t talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.

4. Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first?

A. Paul Newman wanted it.

B. The studio powers didn’t like his agent.

C. He wasn’t famous enough.

D. The director recommended someone else.

5. Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?

A. They were of the same age.

B. They worked in the same theater.

They were both good actors.

D. They han similar charactertics.

6. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Their belief.

B. Their care for children.

C. Their success.

D. Their support for each other.

7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the test?

A. To show his love of films.

B. To remember a friend.

C. To introduce a new movie.

D. To share his acting experience.

While it’s true that introverts tend to enjoy alone time, it’s not true they dislike people or social environments.

Just because you show more reservation than enthusiasm in these settings, it doesn’t mean you need to change or

that you can’t make new friends. Kat Vellos, a speaker and connection coach, advises introverts to “Resist pressure

from the outside world and don’t hide your true nature or force yourself to be extroverted.”

Danielle Bayard Jackson, a friendship coach, says that introverts can be good friends. “I think we sometimes

joke about them being incapable or not knowing what to do…and they actually have a lot of superpowers that we

don’t give credit(赞扬)to. They’re very observant. They’re really good listeners. And I think that makes for really

good friends.” So, how can introverts use their strengths and make new friends in the process?

“One of my favorite ways to do this is by going to a social event, then camping out on the edge with other

highly sensitive people who don’t want to be in the center of the action.” Vellos, who is an introvert herself, says.

“The kitchen and the edge of the yard are where I’ve often found the best conversations and feelings of connection

at an otherwise overwhelming(令人难以应对的)party.”

The key for introverts is to be mindful of how they spend their energy so that when they spend it, they spend it

well. “If you know you have a small social battery and you can show up for one hour after which it’ll be

overwhelming for you, make good use of that information about yourself.” Jackson says. “If you know you only

have an hour to spend, choose carefully the things that you say yes to.”
