A young Los Angeles actor in need of a second job to pay his bills has come up with a
brilliant way to supplement his income-people walking.
Chuck MeCarthy originally considered becoming a dog walker to earn some extra cash, but
soon realized that the job required more than walking dogs on a leash.However,walking people
didn't require much when they were out on walks.Chuck realized there was money to be made if
he walked people around Los Angeles instead.
It might sound like a joke,but The People Walker,as he calls himself,is very serious about his
new job.For$7 per mile,he offers to walk with clients around L.A.,listening to their problems or
simply making conversations and offering them a sense of security.At 6-feet, 2-inches,and
sporting a bulky figure and bushy beard,Chuck doesn't look like the kind of guy you'd want to
mess with.
Chuck's services are aimed at people who need a motivational encouragement to go
walking,those who don't feel safe walking alone in some areas,and those who are afraid that
people might see the in walking by themselves and think that they have no friends."I wear my
The People Walker shirt upon request and on the first walk with a new client,so they can be
100%sure it's me,"McCarthy say.However,he admits some people are a bit uncomfortable with
this policy,as they don't necessarily want everyone to know that they're being walked.
So far,Chuck McCarthy has already had another five people walkers employed,covering
various areas,like downtown L.A.,Hollywood,Eagle Rock,or Fairfax.Once he posted signs around
the city,his phone started ringing and clients began rolling in.And with all the free publicity he
has been getting in the press lately,more requests are coming.
While he hopes that his acting career will pick up soon,in the meantime Chuck is very happy
with his people walking business.After all,it's literally a walk in the park and it pays the bills.
5.Which service of The People Walker isn't mentioned in the text?
A.Cheering up the clients.
B. Accompanying the clients.
C.Buying the clients food.
D.Offering a sense of security.
6.Why do people prefer Chuck to walk without wearing the shirt?
A.To keep the walk comfortable.
B.To avoid being recognized.
C.To attract more new friends.
D.To keep themselves alone.
7.What do we know about Chuck McCarthy from the text?
A.He has lost confidence in his acting career.
B.He hopes to find excitement in people walking.4
C.He has inspired other people to be more creative.
D.He is earning more as a people walker than as an actor.

More than four decades ago British scientist Robert Edwards first witnessed the miracle of
human life growing inside a test tube at his Cambridge lab.Since that ground-breaking
moment,more than four million babies have been born through IVF(体外受精）and in 2010 his
great contribution to science was finally recognized as he was awarded the Nobel Prize for
Medicine.
The prize for Dr Edwards,who was given a Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Award in 2008,
includes af900,000 cheque.The Nobel Assembly described IVF as a"milestone in modern
medicine".
With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe,the Manchester-born physiologist

said,"His achievements have made it possible to treat infertility,a disease which makes human
unable to have a baby.This condition has been afflicting a large percentage of mankind including

born in Oldham,Gtr Manchester,in 1978 to parents Lesley and John who had been fruitlessly
trying for a baby since 1969.Each year,more than 30,000 women in Britain now undergo IVF and
11,000 babies are born as a result of the treatment.
But his work attracted widespread criticism from some scientists and the Catholic Church
who said it was"immoral". Martin Johnson,professor of reproductive sciences at the University of
Cambridge,said the award was"long overdue".He said,"We couldn't understand why the Nobel
has come so late but he is delighted-this is the cherry on the cake for him".
Professor Edwards was too ill to give interviews but a statement released by his family said
he was"thrilled and delighted".

＂What is the biggest challenge of graduate school?"an undergraduate asked the discussion
group of graduate students at an event I helped organize last summer."Not letting the support
from my community turn into pressure,"one group member responded.
That answer might have surprised some people.But I understood exactly what she meant.
The speaker was an African-American woman.I am a member of a minority group myself,
pursuing(追求）a doctor's degree in chemistry,so her comment resonated(共鸣）with me.
Throughout my education,friends and family have expected me to take advantage of every
opportunity I come across because I may not get the same chance again.Members of my
community expect me to give outstanding performances everywhere I go because I represent
them and our culture.This has been a great source of motivation,but also of pressure.And when I
heard the member echo( 重 复 ） my experience,I understood that I needed to educate my
community about how their comments made me feel--and how to keep their support from
becoming stressful.
Now when people in my community-always with the best intentions-say something that
creates pressure,I tell them and we talk about it.This was a bit awkward at first.But they want to
support me,so I need to give them the tools to do that.
Sometimes,friends and family ask me,"How soon can you get your degree?"As many
students will agree, this question makes them feel bad. Now I respond by telling them that! prefer
to be asked"How are you progressing in your program?"and I explain why.
All graduate students carry a weight of expectations from family,friends and community.
Being aware of our needs and opening up lines of communication with supporters is a starting6
point for making the journey less stressful.

From my experience,there are three main reasons why people don't cook more often:
ability,money and:time._16 Money is a topic I'll save for another day.So today I want to give you
some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three
suggestions for great cooking on a tight schedule:.
17 The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there is
nothing ready to eat.So think about the coming week.When will you have time to cook?Do you
have the right materials ready?A little time planning in advance can save a lot of work later on.7
Make your time worth it.When you do find time to cook a meal,make the most of it and save
yourself time later on.Are you making one loaf of bread? 18 It takes around the same amount of
time.So save yourself the effort for a future meal.
Try new things.This may surprise you. 19 It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and
recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule.The more you learn and the more you
try,the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.
Hopefully that gives you a good start._20 And don't let a busy schedule discourage you from
making some great changes in the way you eat and live!
A.Make four instead.
B.Think ahead.
C.Cooking is a burden.
D.Ability is easily improved through studying and practicing.
E.But understanding your food better will help you manage all kinds of cooking.
F.However,one of the best tools to make cooking worth your time is experimentation.
G.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.

have to pay the postage myself?My budget is50 and I hope this will be enough to cover the cost
of the books and the postage.Besides,how should I pay?It couldn't be better if you accept credit

give it to my friend Wang Lin as a birthday present.
Thank you for your kindness and your early reply to this letter will be highly appreciated.
