There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people 36 to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you 37 is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you 38 others. Because while there will be times 39 outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely 40.. The only way to really evaluate other folks’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are 41 . Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision 42 anyway.
You were 43 with the ability to decide what is and what isn’t in your best interest. Most of the time, you will make the right decision and 44 the appropriate actions, and in thinking for yourself, you will become far more successful than if you had gone against your own 45 .
Early on in my investment career, I made the mistake of 46 a few important business decisions on colleagues’ opinions instead of conducting the 47 necessary to make a wise decision. It wasn’t due to 48 on my part; no one could ever accuse me of that. But, being 49 to Wall Street, I intended to assume that my more senior 50 knew more than I did, and so I 51 too much significance to their opinions.
You know what happened? Each of those investments ended in 52 . Eventually I stopped allowing myself to be influenced by 53 and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. It took me until I was almost 30 years old to 54 this—it’s never too late for a person to change his approach both to 55 and to life.

Does your child struggle in school? Is he or she afraid of reading out loud, writing an essay, or working out a math problem? While every kid has trouble with homework from time to time, if a certain area of learning keeps going wrong, it might show a learning disorder. Learning disorders, or learning disabilities, are a general term for a wide variety of learning problems.
A learning disability is not a problem with IQ or motivation (動(dòng)機(jī)). Kids with learning disabilities aren’t lazy or slow. In fact, most are just as smart as everyone else. Their brains are just wired (裝電線) differently. Simply put, children and adults with learning disabilities see, hear, and understand things differently. This difference affects how they receive and process (處理) information. This can lead to trouble in learning new information and skills, and putting them to use.
It can be tough to face the possibility that your child has a learning disorder. No parents want to see their children suffer. You may wonder what it could mean for your child’s future, or worry about how your kid will make it through school. But the important thing to remember is that most kids with learning disabilities are just as smart as everyone else. They just need to be taught in ways that suit their unique learning styles.
It’s not always easy to tell whether a child has learning disabilities, for learning disabilities look very different from one child to another. One child may struggle with reading and spelling, while another loves books but can’t understand math. Still another child may have difficulty understanding what others are saying or communicating loud. However, some warning signs are more common than others at different ages. If you’re aware of what they are, you’ll be able to catch a learning disorder early and quickly and take steps to help your child as quickly as possible.

Determined to make school more related to the workplace, Roosevelt High School in Portland, Oregon, developed a school-to-work program. In their first year, students are offered some job pathways in natural resources, human services, health care, business, arts and communication. The following year, each student chooses one of the pathways and examines it in depth, spending three hours a week watching someone on the job. Such a program is also in practice in some other states.
The school-to-work program is built around a partnership(伙伴關(guān)系). For example, Eastman Kodak, a major employer（雇主） in Colorado, introduces students to business by helping them construct（建設(shè)） a model city using small pieces of wood. “The children use the models to decide on the best place to set up schools,” says Lucille Mantelli , director for Eastman Kodak in Colorado. Kodak introduces math by teaching fifth graders to use their pocket money properly. They also provide one-on-one job watching experiences and offer chances of practice for high school juniors and seniors. “Students come to the workplace two or three hours a week,” explains Mantelli. “They do the job for us. We pay them and they get school credits (學(xué)分). We also give them our views on their performance and developmental opportunities.”
In these partnerships, everybody wins. The students tend to（傾向于） take more difficult courses than students in schools that don’t offer such programs. Business benefits（獲益） by having a better prepared workforce needed in future years. “It’s a way for us to work with the school systems to develop the type of workforce we’ll need in future years,” Mantelli continued. “We need employees who understand the basics of reading and writing. We need them to be good at math and to be comfortable working on a team.”
“Our theory is that they can learn as much outside the classroom as in. All students have the ability to change the world, not just to live in it. To do that, they have to know how to solve problems and use critical（批判的）thinking skills. We need to encourage them to dream about jobs that go beyond what they see today,” concludes（得出結(jié)論） a school-to-work program organizer.

A. what the school decides to do
B. why the students get paid for their jobs
C. where the students have their math class
D. what role the business plays in the program
59. The main purpose of the school-to-work program is to _____.
A. offer students more difficult courses
B. introduce new job opportunities to schools
C. improve relations between students and teachers
D. make what students learn in school related to the workplace
60. According to the text, Lucille Mantelli is ____.
A. a math teacher B. a school designer
C. a company manager D. a program organizer
61. What does the writer mean by saying “…everybody wins.” (Paragraph 3)?
A. Students get school credits by taking examinations.
B. Both students and business benefit from the program.
C. The working conditions of the company have improved greatly.
D. Every teacher and student gets paid for working outside the school.
