Seizing life’s possibilities
Some people look at a hole and see empty space.Others see opportunity.That’s what Sheri Schmelzer __1__ a few years ago when everyone—including her three children—started wearing Crocs,the colorful shoes dotted with holes.
“My kids and I were clowning around,and my eldest __2__,Lexie,got the sewing kit out.I brought one of the Crocs(卡骆驰拖鞋),pulled some buttons,rhinestones(人造钻石),and fabric(布)out of the kit,and __3__ them in the holes.Lexie said,‘Mom,I love that!’”says Sheri.
Sheri and Lexie,then seven,spent the rest of the day filling holes in the family’s 12 pairs of Crocs.Every look-alike shoe was suddenly __4__.Crocs had sold millions of pairs of shoes by then.When her husband,Rich,experienced in __5__business,came home later that day,the couple figured they could create a business simply by riding the wave.Rich refused to let a __6__ Croc leave their house,which is in Boulder,Colorado,until he’d __7__a patent.
They decided to __8__the business Jibbitz.While Sheri designed,Rich strategized.They decided to sell the charms online.
Six months later,in February 2006,Sheri was doing so well that Rich left his business to work with her __9__.She was making hundreds of Jibbitz to order,by hand,by herself,in their basement.
Someone at Crocs was sure to notice the charms—after all,the company was headquartered just ten miles down the road.Duke Hanson,one of Crocs’ __10__,spotted Lexie and her Jibbitz at the local pool,__11__ her his business card,and said,“Have your mom call me.”
Sheri and Rich met with Crocs executives,but no one suggested buying the company.Sheri was actually relieved because she wanted to see if she,not Crocs,could make it big.And she did.In December 2006,Crocs __12__ Jibbitz for $ 20 million,with Sheri and Rich staying on board(董事会).

Despite great affection for their parents,many Chinese people remain “too shy” to express love for them,according to an online survey.★
The poll of around 6,000 people,conducted by Beijing-based recruitment website Zhaopin.com,was conducted as the nation gears up (为……做好准备)for Mother’s Day on Sunday.★
Although 74.6 percent of participants said they knew their mothers’ birthday,only 25.5 percent would like to actually tell her“I love you”.
“This figure suggests mothers occupy an important place in most participants’ mind.Yet,many people still find it ‘embarrassing’to express their affection,”the survey’s organizer said.
As to the form of celebration on Mother’s Day,67 percent of participants said they would prepare some gifts,with 70 percent saying that they would spend no more than 500 yuan(74 US dollars),while 51 percent said they planned to phone their mother because they would either be too busy at work or be away from home.
“I do love my mother deeply but I have never said ‘I love you’that often.It just feels quite weird for me to say it to her in person,”said Stella Wang,a 27-year-old office worker,noting that she prefers to express her feelings in writing on birthday or Christmas cards.
“I have to say that it’s difficult for me to express my love for my mother.I think if I did say it out loud,it might confuse her,”said Liang Hao,a 32-year-old engineer.
“Very few Chinese,at least those I know,are used to saying ‘I love you’...they may never even say it once,” said Mike Denver,an American working in Shanghai as an English teacher.
Hu Shoujun,a sociology professor from Shanghai’s Fudan University said,“The personality of the Chinese people is generally quiet,reserved and serious.For Chinese,it’s unnecessary and even regarded as ‘odd’ to display their affection for relatives and friends.”
1.The cause of conducting the poll is to ________.
A.find out how the Chinese will express their love to parents
B.make preparations for Mother’s Day
C.survey how many people will say“I love you” to their parents
D.survey what the Chinese will do on Mother’s Day
2.According to the passage,how many participants will say“I love you”to parents?
A.About 2,300.
B.Around 1,350
C.About 4,200.
D.About 1,530.
3.The underlined word“weird”can best be replaced by________.
A.shy
B.fantastic
C.impossible
D.unnecessary
4.According to the passage,why are the Chinese unwilling to say“I love you”to parents?
A.Because they have no affection for their parents.
B.Because they are far away from their parents.
C.Because they are afraid of confusing their parents.
D.Because the personality of the Chinese people makes them not do it.
5.According to the survey,which of the following is NOT the way to celebrate Mother’s Day?
A.Sending gifts to the mother.
B.Giving a call to the mother.
C.Writing a birthday card.
D.Buying a beautiful coat for the mother.Unit 3 Back to the past
