【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 Einstein could not speak until he was four years old, and could not read until he was seven? His parents and teachers worried about his mental ability. Beethoven39。s music teacher said about him, As a poser (作曲家) he is hopeless. What if this young boy had believed it? When Thomas Edison was a young boy, his teachers said he was so stupid that he could never learn anything. He once said, I remember I used to never be able to get along at school. I was always at the foot of my class ... My father thought I was stupid, and I almost decided that I was a stupid person. What if young Thomas had believed what they said about him? When the sculptor (雕刻家) Auguste Rodin was young, he had difficulty learning to read and write. Today, we may say he had a learning disability. His father said of him, I have an idiot (白癡) for a son. His uncle agreed. He39。s uneducable, he said. What if Rodin had doubted his ability? Walt Disney was once fired by a newspaper editor because he was thought to have no good ideas. Enrico Caruso was told by one music teacher, You can39。t sing. You have no voice at all. And an editor told Louisa May Alcott that she was unable to write anything that would have popular appeal. What if these people had listened and bee discouraged? Where would our world be without the music of Beethoven, the art of Rodin or the ideas of Albert Einstein and Walt Disney? As Oscar Levant once said, It39。s not what you are but what you don39。t bee that hurts. You have great potential. When you believe in all you can be, rather than all you cannot bee, you will find your place on earth.（1）How many successful people are mentioned as examples in the passage?

Computers were something you saw on STAR TREK(星際航行), and our television only got one channel clearly. Still, I was never bored. The fields, hills, and woodlands around my house were the nature readymade playgrounds. I can remember once hiking to a nearby lake and slowly walking around it. At the backside of it I was amazed to find an old, onelane, dirt road that I had never seen before. I immediately set out to travel it. It was full of holes and muddy tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides, but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure. I walked on and on for what seemed like hours. I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear to turn around and head back home but I was stubborn and even a bit stupid, so I walked on. The dirt road give way to a rock one and then a paved one, yet there was still neither a car nor a house in sight. My legs were getting tired. I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared. I didn39。t want to end up trapped on this road in the dark of night, but I was sure it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again. I was almost in tears when I turned one last curve(彎曲處) and saw something in the distance. It was a house that I recognized. My heart leapt up! I jumped up and down and laughed out loud. I knew the way home! It was still over a mile away but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time. I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner. I remembered this recently when I saw a sign that said, “All roads lead Home.” This is true. In this life all roads no matter what their twists(彎曲) and turns are can lead us home again. They can lead us to our homes here on Earth. They can lead us to our homes in our heart, if we can insist.（1）Why was the author never bored when he was a boy? there was still a TV. he liked hiking alone. there were so many playgrounds built for him. he had so many places around his house to play.（2）What made the author decide to take the old road? it before. it was a muddy road. a new and special experience. it had deep woods on both sides.（3）How did the author feel when he saw a known house in the distance? ....
