21、   Walt Disney has spent the past three years making a shift to online streaming. Bob Iger, Disney's chief executive has repeatedly called the shift the "number one priority".

It therefore came as a surprise when Disney abruptly announced that Mr. Iger was retiring, with nearly two years left, to be replaced "immediately" by Bob Chapek, who has least experience in streaming.

"You thought you were going hard right, and all of a sudden you went hard left," said Rich Greenfield, a media analyst. He compared the choice to Apple's decision to replace Steve Jobs with Tim Cook: "You're choosing the operating executive instead of the wise, dynamic CEO."

The appointment came as a surprise also because analysts had considered Kevin Mayer, another longtime Disney executive, as the most likely candidate to take over Iger's position. In March 2018, Mayer was appointed to run Disney's streaming and international businesses-a high-profile job given Mr. Iger's emphasis on streaming as the future of the entire group.

"When thinking about what I need to do before I leave the company, creatively getting everything on track is my number one goal. If I also need to run the company every day, I will not be able to do that," said Iger.

According to the financial report, while Disney's streaming has attracted more subscribers, the war of streaming media is a war of burning money. It lost$693 million.

It is the theme park business in the charge of Chapek that has performed the task of "blood transfusion" for these money-burning new businesses. In 2019, by September, Disney's theme park unit operating profit rose by 11% to $6.76 billion. Wall Street analysis predicts that by September 2024, Disney's theme park division will have a profit of $10 billion and streaming media operating profit is expected to approach $2.5 billion.

"Look at the businesses he's been in charge of. They have nothing to do with streaming, but everything to do with profitability," said Brian Wieser, president of business intelligence at GroupM.

【1】What does Iger value most in running Walt Disney in the last few years?

A.Repeated changes. B.More profit. C.Creative goal. D.Online streaming.

【2】What is Greenfield's attitude towards the appointment of Chapek?

A.Doubtful. B.Curious. C.Supportive. D.Ignorant.

【3】What does the underlined part "blood transfusion" in Paragraph 7 probably mean?

A.Saving lives. B.Ending a war. C.Borrowing money. D.Recovering losses.

【4】Why was Chapek rather than Mayer appointed as Disney's chief executive?

A.Chapek is more experienced in streaming.

B.Mayer was too self-satisfied after 2018 promotion.

C.Chapek is abler to get Disney financially balanced.

D.Mayer caused Disney to lose much in pushing streaming.

23、How to Survive and Thrive

Here are some tips to help you learn not only to survive, but to thrive (成长) and grow in a chaotic world.

Try to build on strengths rather than focus on limitations. 【1】Maybe you’ll become an auto mechanic (技工), or maybe you’ll make good use of your ability to classify detailed information to build a career as a biologist or druggist.

Realize that few mistakes are disastrous. Did you fail a course? 【2】Most of us can’t avoid an occasional failure, but we can learn bounce-back attitudes through failures.

【3】Cecilia, a shy twelve-year-old, became livelier when she won the lead in a school play. “We want you to improve your grades, but not spend time on plays!” said her worried mother. To everyone’s surprise, Cecilia’s grades improved. 【4】Most importantly, no matter what happens, Cecilia can return to that feeling of success whenever she gets discouraged.

Getting into a top university — or any university — will not guarantee success. I’ve met people from top universities who have experienced unemployment and even homelessness. 【5】Career-changers who face the future with an attitude of “I can handle anything” are the ones who win today. While in difficulties, they keep up their spirits till they figure out what to do next.

26、Though it is one of the faded memories of my life today, there are times when I remember his face clearly, especially his eyes. As he had yellow spots on his eyes we called him Spotty. He would have been a stray (流浪) dog, until he came to me.

I was seven years old. My dad had just got a new job in Nasik. We had moved into a rented house. It was raining very heavily on the day we moved.

It was a cold dark night. We had our meal and went to sleep. Somehow in the midnight I heard some strange sounds outside the main door. I gathered courage and looked out through the window and I was really amused with what I saw outside.

There was a small puppy lying on an old doormat which my mother had put outside the door. It was wet and trembling. At first it was difficult to see the lite one. It was the yellow spots on its eyes that made me realize its presence.

It was trying to get under the doormat to avoid the cold air outside and it had managed to get in as I could see only its head outside the doormat. Was it sick or injured?

I felt pity for the poor soul. I went in and came out with an old towel. I went near the innocent one and held it in my hand and wiped the puppy till he had become dry. I took him into my room and made a bed for him with a woolen blanket and a small pillow. He seemed very healthy and comfortable in his new bed as he went to sleep immediately.

The next morning, everyone in the family came to know about the unusual guest "Shall we keep him with us?" I questioned my mom.

Like any other parents would, my parents first tally refused my idea but my sister and I convinced them to keep Spotty.

Slowly Spotty got on with everyone and became one of the family members.

Para. 1:

One day, Spotty returned from his daily walk with a broken leg.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Para. 2:

Almost a year later, one midnight we heard Spotty barking breathlessly.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
