36
for work. One day Mr. Ingram found an old truck that was
37
in the soft,sandy soil of our field. It was full of melons that someone had tried to
38
from our farm before his truck got caught in the mud.
Mr. Ingram explained that the truck’s owner would be
39
soon, and he wanted me to watch and learn. It wasn’t long

a local guy with a terrible reputation for fighting and stealing showed up with his two fully-grown sons. They looked really

some watermelons from us.”
There was a long
43
before the man answered, “Yeah, I guess so. What are you

for them?”
“Twenty-five cents each.”
“Well, I suppose that would be
45
enough if you help me get my truck out of here,” the man said.
It turned out to be our biggest sale of the summer, and an awful, perhaps violent incident had been

When I was growing up, I was ashamed to be seen with my father. He was severely disabled and very short, and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare. If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never let on.
It was difficult to coordinate(协调)our steps—his slow, mine impatient—and because of that, we didn’t say much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.”
He never talked about himself as an object of , nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or able. What he looked for in others was a “good heart”, and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him. I believe that is a proper standard by which to judge people, even though I still don’t know accurately what a “good heart” is.
Unable to
in many activities, my father still tried to participate in some way. I now know he participated in some things indirectly through me, his only son. When I played ball (poorly), he “played” too. When I joined the Navy, he “joined” too. And when I came home on leave, he saw to it that I visited his office. Introducing me, he was really saying, “This is my son, but it is also me, and I could have done this, too, if things had been different.” Those words were never said aloud.
He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he sensed my unwillingness to be seen with him during our walks. If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, how unworthy I was, how I regretted it. I think of him when I complain about small affairs, when I am envious of another’s good fortune, when I don’t have a “good heart”.
At such times I put my hand on his arm to regain my balance, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.”

For many businessmen online education has been a dream.Now it has come true.The investment (投资) in higher education, whether financial or in terms of time, has long been impossible for many of them.But well-known educational institutions have chosen to deliver an internet-based program, and these barriers(障碍) have been lifted.
That is good news for people eager to improve themselves and is more attractive to employers.It is also a benefit to industry with better qualified candidates applying for jobs at every level.
Having the benefits of a higher qualification without going to the university campus is attractive to many students.Campus study means greater cost, while online programs are flexible and save time, whether at home or at work.Students can achieve their degrees without causing too much disruption to their career or home life.
In addition to affordable, flexible classes and greater convenience, students also have access to the online learning resources of many of the world’s top educational institutions.They can also communicate with their tutors no matter what time it is or whether either party is away for any reason.
This has opened up the possibility of getting a qualification from a university or college that many students could only have dreamed of in the past.It also allows specialists to get the precise qualifications and focus on their studies.As well as seeing the increase of applicants from lower-incomes and housewives, studying online in the US is even becoming popular with younger people of college age.
Employers have become increasingly welcome and positive to online qualifications as more candidates earn them, especially if they’re properly approved by the US Department of Education.
US institutions have led the way in online education provision.Many top US colleges and universities offer a range of online programs that are highly respected and in every way perfectly fit for adults who need to combine their studies with a working life.
.According to Paragraph 1, many US colleges and universities ______.
A.have begun to lift the barriers to financial investment
B.have begun to run an internet-based program
C.have had a dream of offering online education
D.have gained financial investment
73.Why do people choose online education?
A.They can find jobs more easily than on-campus graduates.
B.They can get qualifications from US Department of Education.
C.They can save money and arrange their time and courses freely.
D.They can invest money in different courses provided online.
The underlined word “disruption” in the third paragraph probably mean ______.
A.dissatisfaction B.attention C.attraction D.interruptionWhich would be a good title for the passage?
A.Adult Education OnlineB.Online Education Taking the Place of Campus Education
C.Top US Universities Offering Online Education D.The Best of USA’s Online Education
