I used to believe in the American Dream, which meant a job, a mortgage (°´½Ò), credit cards, success. I wanted it and worked toward it like everyone else, all of us 21 chasing the same thing.

One year, through a series of unhappy events, it all fell 22 . I found myself homeless and alone. I had my truck and $56. I 23 the countryside for some place I could rent for the 24 possible amount. I came upon a shabby house four miles up a winding mountain road 25 the Potomac River in West Virginia. It was 26 , full of broken glass and rubbish. I found the owner, rented it, and 27 a corner to camp in.

The locals knew nothing about me, 28 slowly, they started teaching me the 29 of being a neighbor. They dropped off blankets, candles, and tools, and began 30 around to chat. They started to teach me a belief in a 31 American Dream¡ªnot the one of individual achievement but of 32 .

What I had believed in, all those things I thought were 33 for a civilized life, were nonexistent in this place. 34 on the mountain, my most valuable possessions were my 35 with my neighbors.

Four years later, I moved back into 36 I saw many people were having a really hard time, 37 their jobs and homes. I managed to rent a big enough house to 38 a handful of people. There are four of us now in the house, but over time I¡¯ve had nine people come in and move on to other places. We¡¯d all be in 39 if we hadn¡¯t banded together.

The American Dream I believe in now is a shared one. It¡¯s not so much about what I can get for myself; it¡¯s about 40 we can all get by together.

When I came home to London at the end of my first term at university in December 1968, I was flat broke, and more broke because it was Christmas, so I went to an employment agency for a job.

"Would you like to work for the Beatles?" they asked.

Don't you have anything better?" I asked.

Fifteen minutes later I got the job. When I asked why they accepted me when millions would have done the job for free, the answer was ¡°That¡¯s just the proble.¡± Yes. I owed the job to the fact that I was not a crazy fan.

But of course I was a fan. It was difficult not to be. I worked over the winter holiday in 1968 and also during Easter 1969. I had to take a taxi in the days to deliver papers sealed in envelopes to the Beatles¡¯ house. I took the envelopes to the address, handed them over to whoever answered the door and lift. Who would entrust£¨Î¯ÍУ©such papers to an unknown student today ¨C the envelopes would be opened and the contents of the papers copied and sold to the Press, I t never occurred to me to do that. Much has been lost in 40 years!

I am always asked how many autographs£¨Ç©Ãû£© I collected, and the answer is none. How uncool would it have been to ask for an autograph? Far better just to hear the Beatles¡¯ s greets¡ª¡ª¡°Hi, boy.¡± How¡¯s it going?¡±

More than 40 years later, this remains the best job I have ever had. It met my immediate material need and provides a memory that can be my life treasure. For a child of the 60s, this was its peak. If some details of the memory are not so fresh, it¡¯s because they weren¡¯t important then. At 19, you take man you things that happen for granted. At 61, they become gold dust. If I had known that then, I would have kept a diary.

41£®The author when he came home according to the first paragraph.

A£®got sick B£®was penniless C£®broke his arms D£®had to leave school

42£®The author was offered the job as a mailboy because .

A£®the agency was in urgent need of helping hands

B£®the Beatles wanted to help poor young men

C£®the boy seemed not to be a fan of the Beatles

D£®the poor boy couldn¡¯t do heavy physical work

43£®From the 5th paragraph, we can learn that the author the Beatles.

A£®disliked B£®respected C£®doubted D£®envied

44£®The reason why the author didn¡¯t collect the autographs of the Beatles was that .

A£®he had no chance to do that B£®he had no enough money

C£®he was not allowed to collect D£®he preferred to talk with the Beatles

45£®How does the author find his job as a mailboy when he was 19?

A£®It was an experience worth treasuring.

B£®It was foolish of him not to make more money.

C£®He reached the peak of his life in the university.

D£®It helped him develop a habit of keeping a diary.

Children will find it more difficult to buy cigarettes as vending machines(×Ô¶¯ÊÛ»õ»ú)selling tobacco will be officially banned in England today£®According to the British Heart Foundation(BHF)£¬around 200£¬000 young people start smoking regularly in England each year and 11 per cent of l1-to-15-year-old regular smokers in England and Wales get their cigarettes from vending machines.
