The Chinese-born American architect Ieoh Ming Pei is one of the most creative architects of our times. He has incorporated both eastern and western ideas into his designs.

Ieoh Ming Pei was born in Guangzhou, China on April 26, 1917. His father was a famous banker. In 1935, at the age of 17, he came to the United States to study architecture at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1942, he entered the Harvard Graduate School of Design.

In 1964, Jacqueline Kennedy selected Pei to design the Kennedy library. After that he became well-known all of the world. People named it one of the Ten Best Buildings in the United States. In 1968, Pei started work on the East Wing of the National Gallery of Art, in Washington D.C.. Over one million people visited the building during its first 50 days in existence.

Following the East Wing project Pei's fame has continued to grow widely. In 1983, French President commissioned(委任) Pei to help make the Louvre more modern. Ten years later, the completion of Pei’s glass pyramid at the Louvre created a new historic landmark for Paris. Pei described it as, "the greatest challenge and greatest accomplishment of my career." At Fragrant Hill, a 300-room hotel in the Chinese capital, Pei has attempted to bring to his native China his often-quoted "third way of making buildings." Avoiding both a complete copying of traditional Chinese motifs(特色) as well as the modernism of the West, Pei has managed, at Fragrant Hill, to make one of his most eloquent(有说服力的) statements.

Pei has designed nearly 50 projects in the United States and abroad. About half of these projects have won major awards. Pei has been awarded the highest honors from nations over the world. In 1990, Pei was awarded the Medal of Freedom by President George Bush for his contributions to world peace and service to the US government.

One day in my class,Maria shared her feelings about money,“Money worries me. I think I want to live without money because I hate it. I HATE MONEY.” We were all touched by Maria's words as they

reminded us of the spiritual burdens that money managing can bring to us. After class I offered to help Maria deal with her financial problems. She hesitated to accept my offer,and I could see from the expression on her face that she was afraid of what it might involve. I quickly promised her that I wouldn't make her do more than she was able to. I told her frankly that I didn't enjoy managing my money any more than she did hers and wouldn't burden her with guilt,judgments,or impossible tasks. All I would ask her to do was to let me help her look at her fears and try to make some sense of them.

Maria still resisted my offer,and I can remember the excuses she gave me as they were the repeated complaints I had heard from so many people. “I'll never understand money,”she said. “My facts are meaningless.” “I don't deserve to have money.” “I never have enough.” “I have too little to manage.” “My financial position isn't worth looking at.” and the most devastating one of all,“I just can't do it.”

Going home that day,I couldn't get Maria out of my mind:her attitude conveyed the same negativity and  fear that I believed annoyed many people. I was sure it was this attitude that prevented people from managing their money effectively. My counseling(咨询)has taught me that these anxieties are  inseparably connected to our self ¬doubts and fear for survival. Many of us are terrified of handling our money because we don't believe we can do it well,and to do it wrong would put our very existence at risk.

On a deeper level we know that money is not the source of life,but sense of worth drives us to act as if it were. It locks us up in self ¬doubts and prevents us from tapping into the true source of our management power,our spirit.

61.The underlined word “devastating” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.

A.convincing                B.interesting        C.shocking                  D.valuable

62.Maria's words moved the author and others because they were ________.

A.in the same financial trouble      B.in the same financial condition

C.of the same family background    D.of the same feeling over the issue

63.As for money managing,the author intended to tell Maria how to ________.

A.overcome her fears              B.make wise decisions

C.avoid making mistakes           D.learn the necessary skills

64.Maria wouldn't take the author's offer of help for fear of________.

A.being forced to share her money with others    B.having to do something beyond her reach

C.being found guilty of making impossible errors

D.showing her judgment about money

65.According to the author,people's anxieties about managing money result from their understanding of

money as the only source of ________.

A.life             B.values        C.spirit            D.power

C

Don’t go to Kauai. Go to any of the other Hawaiian Islands—Maui, Lanai, the Big Island—but leave Kauai for us. The weather on Kauai is so unpredictable that sometimes it rains all day—in fact, it’s the second –wettest spot on the earth. Yes, there are giant double rainbows all the time, and the sunlight through the clouds is magical. But if you are not interested in these, go somewhere else. You just can’t control the nature on Kauai, and who wants to surrender to the nature when you could be at a fine hotel, lying in a comfortable chair next to a swimming pool, with food served upon request?
