Gilbert Arenas was born on January 6, 1982 in Tampa, Florida. His father played college football at the University of Miami. In 1984, the pair moved to Los Angeles, California where Gilbert's father was an actor in commercials and soap operas.
When Gilbert was about 11, he started playing basketball. By the time Gilbert was 14, he was already the best player on Ulysses S. Grant High School in Van Nuys, California. He decided to wear the number "0" because people told him he would get "zero playing time". After his sophomore year, Gilbert decided to enter the NBA draft. Many coaches thought that Gilbert was not ready. As a result, he was drafted a disappointing 31st overall by the Golden State Warriors. Gilbert worked hard at Golden State, despite the fact his coach kept him on the bench for much of the season. When he finally got his chance, Gilbert averaged 14 points and 5 assists per game as the Warriors point guard.
After a successful individual year for Gilbert, it was time to test the NBA's free-agent market. Much to the disappointment of Warriors fans, Gilbert signed a 6-year, 65 million dollar deal with the Washington Wizards in 2003. Not surprisingly, he became an instant star with the Wizards. Fans loved to watch him race up the court, dish-off passes, and make difficult shots and lay ups. Although the Wizards only won 27 games his first year in Washington, Gilbert led them with 19.6 points per game. Gilbert, along with teammates Larry Hughes and Antawn Jamison, led the Wizards to the NBA playoffs during his second year. The highlight of the decade for the Wizards was their post-season victory against the Chicago Bulls in the NBA playoffs.

18. Why was Gilbert drafted a disappointing 31st overall by the Golden State Warriors?
A. Because many coaches thought that he was not ready.
B. Because the Golden State Warriors liked him very much.
C. Because his family has moved to the Golden State.

Kaleil Isaza Tuzman moved to the United States from Columbia when he was 15.Within a few years he was pushing to get ahead, hawking (叫卖) baseball caps to pay the bills his Harvard scholarship didn't cover.
After graduating, he landed on Wall Street, but every night he dreamed of working for himself.During the booming (繁荣的) 1990s, he gave it a try when he and a partner started govWorks - a software company that helped city government go online.
They raised $60 million and expanded like crazy.Then dotcoms started turning into dotbombs - govWorks broke up too.Says Isaza Tuzman, "Entrepreneurs (创业人) have to be ready for both success and failure.In Columbia if you fail, you become a pariah and no one will do business with you.The wonderful thing about this country is you can get up again."
From national parks to moon landings, America has given the world some amazing ideas.But the American Dream is still the biggest - the idea that with hard work and a bit of luck you can be whoever you want to be.Historian James Truslow Adams once wrote that Americans believe "life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement."
These days there's pressure on the dream idea.A 1978 study of boys born and raised after World War II found an astonishing 23% of the poorest had reached the top of the income heap by 1973.Now, in a typical generation, only 10% work their way from bottom to top.
But every day, some still do make it.After govWorks went bankrupt, Isaza Tuzman built on what he had learned.His new company, Recognition Group, restructures (重组) firms and finds them venture capital?–?nearly $150 million so far.Last year, "Hispanic Business" magazine named him to its 100 Most Influential list.Not bad for a dreamer, in a country built on dreams.
41.What did Kaleil Isaza Tuzman dream of after graduating from college______
A.Working in the Wall Street stock market.
B.Starting a business of his own.
C.Climbing to the top of society.
D.Entering the IT industry.
42.The word "pariah" in " if you fail, you become a pariah" (Line 3,Para.3) most likely means "________."
A.a person who has no future
B.a person to be pitied
C.a person to be condemned
D.a person to be avoided
43.What does the author mean by the American Dream______
A.Everyone can reach the top of the social ladder.
B.People will have a better, richer, and fuller life than their parents.
C.A lucky poor boy can move to the top if he works hard.

B.More and more people are feeling the pressure to work harder in order to realize their dreams.
C.It is becoming more and more unpopular because few people today can move up the social ladder.
D.If one works hard enough, he will eventually make his dreams come true.
