They needed local guides to help them through this unknown territory.Born to a Shoshone chief around 1788, Sacagawea had been kidnapped (绑架) by an enemy tribe when she was about

When the trapper was hired as a guide for Lewis and Clarks expedition in 1804, Sacagawea also joined as an interpreter to talk to Native-American people on their 8, 000-mile journey.Sacagawea soon became a respected member of the group. She was skilled at
4、 finding plants for food and medicine to help keep the explorers alive. When a boat capsized (翻) on the Missouri River as they were crossing into what is now Montana, Sacagawea saved important books and much-needed supplies. When they needed horses to cross rough area, she convinced a Shoshone tribe
5、led by her long-lost brotherto give them some. She was so esteemed by Lewis and Clark that when they reached the Pacific Ocean in November 1805, Sacagawea was asked to cast her vote for where they should build a fort (营地).Sacagawea proved herself again after the group took a different route home thr

9、eaker from California named Geri flew to Japan, in her favorite jeans and a casual jacket, to give her first speech. Fourteen hours later, four perfectly dressed Japanese gentlemen greeted her at Narita Airport. Smiling and bowing low, they handed her their business cards. With her bag in one hand,
10、Geri took their cards with the other. She thanked them, glanced briefly at the cards, and put them into her jeans pocket quickly.When the five of them arrived at the hotel, they invited Geri to tea in the lobby (大厅). While sipping tea, the gentlemen presented her with a small gift which she eagerly
11、opened. She was thrilled with the gift and shouted excitedly, “Oh, its beautiful!”At this point, the four Japanese gentlemen stood up and, bowing only very slightly, said “Sayonara” and left immediately. Poor Geri was left astonished. What did she do wrong?Everything! Her jeans were the first gaffe.
12、 Even if youre coming off a bicycle in Japan, you do not meet c1ients (客人) casually dressed. The second mistake was Geris handling of their business cards rudely. In Japan, the business card is one of the most important communicative tools. It is always presented and accepted respectfully with both
13、hands. However, Geri put their cards away much too quickly. In Japan, people use business cards as a conversation starter. You chat about each others cards and work and do not put theirs away until they gently and respectfully place yours in safekeeping. Putting it carelessly into her jeans pocket w
14、as the ultimate disrespect.Then, the fourth horror of horrors was that Geri should not have opened the gift in front of her clients.

18、hat stage. But like everyone else in my graduating class, I had watched the economy turn from bad to worse. What I thought would take a week dragged into two and then four, and 100 job applications later, I found myself in the exact same spot as 1 was before. And the due date to begin paying back my
19、 student loans was creeping ever closer.You know that feeling when you wake up and you are just consumed with fear? Fear about something you cant controlthat sense of approaching failure that remains over you as you hope that everything that happened to you thus far was just a bad dream? That feelin
20、g became a constant in my life. And the most frustrating part was no matter how much 1 tried, 1 just couldnt seem to make any progress.So what did I do to maintain my sanity(理智)?I wrote. Something about putting words on a page made everything seem a little clearera little brighter. Something about w

26、d my younger brother. It was an enough distance in age to keep us close as we got older, but also enough of an age gap to make sure we lived our own lives in completely different ways. Having a younger brother while I was a girl was a lot of work for there was a lot of fighting.However, as weve got
27、older, weve become closer, and Ive learned several things in life from my younger brother that I didnt realize I needed before.My younger brother is one of the most talented and creative souls Ive known.

Hes helped remind me through his actions and words that giving up on creativity is something a person should never do.My younger brother has always been a more introverted type, and if you speak to him, youre lucky to get over three words out of hi
29、m at a time. Because of this, hes certainly learned the whole “actions speak louder than words” thing. But, Ive realized from my brother that I neednt speak to fill the silence. Sometimes, its necessary to spend some of your time in silence and reflect in it. My younger brother has also been through
30、 hard times, but hes able to focus on learning from the hard times, unlike me, who tends to hold on to every little thing from my life.

Things at home were not as “busy” as they used to be. We still had our 15-year-ol
34、d son Gabriel with us, but we missed having Matthew around.My wife soon had a crazy idea. “Lets get a dog.” she suggested. I wasnt exactly thrilled with the idea, but I agreed. I mean, what better way to replace a kid that has gone off to college than to get a dog.When we got to the animal shelter,
35、it seemed like every dog was a pit bull (比特犬). Id had many bad experiences with pit bulls as a child, so I didnt want to take one of them home with me.While I walked along the rows and rows of cold metal cages, a dog caught my eye. He was scared, and looked like hed given up on life. There was only
36、one problem: he was a pit bull.As he looked at me with his big, beautiful eyes, I could see into his soul. I could see how scared he was and that he just wanted a happy life. I couldnt just walk away I had to at least go over and look at him. I approached his cage, and he just sat there, looking at
37、me. I stuck my finger through the hole in the cage and petted him on the head. I expected him to get mad, but he didnt.I knew that this dog had never felt love before, and that he was enjoying every bit of the love I could give him in that moment. Tears began to stream down my face because I felt ev
38、erything that this poor creature was feeling right then. He just wanted to be loved; he just wanted a home and a family.Its been a year since we took the dog home, and our lives have been changed forever.Now, his favorite thing to do is give us kisses with his giant tongue every morning. He is alway
39、s there to greet us when we come home with a huge smile. Hes shown us more love than any other living creature on Earth ever had before. And every time I look into his eyes I see love, compassion and gratitude things I never thought that a pit bull was capable of feeling.21. Why did the authors wife
