You Need Courage!

So there 1 was sitting outside the university’s auditorium，waiting for the president of PepsiCo.I could hear him talking to the students…and talking，and talking._________ (47)He was now five minutes over, which dropped my time with him down to 10 minutes.Decision time.

I wrote a note on the back of my business card，reminding him that he had a meeting.“You have a meeting with Jeff Hoye at 2：30 pm.”I took a deep breath，pushed open the doors of the auditorium and walked straight up the middle aisle(过道)toward him as he talked.Mr.Weatherup stopped._________ (48)Just before I reached the door, I heard him tell the group that he was running late.He thanked them for their attention，wished them luck and walked out to where 1 was now sitting，holding my breath.

He looked at the card and then at me.“Let me guess.”he said.“You’re Jeff.”He smiled._________ (49)He spent the next 30 minutes offering me his time，some wonderful stories that I still use，and an invitation to visit him and his group in New Y_0rk.But what he gave me that I value the most was the encouragement to continue to do as I had done._________ (50)When things need to happen，you either have the nerve to act or you don’t.

A I began breathing again and we grabbed(霸占)an office right there at school and closed the door.

答案解析

46.E文章的第一段谈到，“我”得知百事公司的老总要在科罗拉多大学讲学，就设法得到了约见他的机会。接下去应该是E，这是一个转折，“我”虽然得到了约见他的机会，但在他作完演讲之后却只有15分钟的时间。所以，在第二段的开头才会出现：“我”在大学礼堂外面等候的描述。E与前后连贯，所以是答案。

47.C第二段开头描述“我”在礼堂外面等候的情况。第二个句子谈到，“我”能听到他给学生们讲话，他讲啊讲……最后一个句子提到，他已经超过了五分钟了。在第二句和最后一句之间应该是C，“我大为吃惊，他该停的时候没停”。

48.F第三段讲“我”在名片后面写了个便条提醒他还有个约会，然后推开门，向他走去。接下去很自然应该是F，把名片递给他。

49。A第四段谈到，百事的老总看了看名片，又看了看我，……他笑了。他笑了，说明他同意和我谈话，所以，接下去应该是A。

50.D第五段第二个句子谈到，他所给“我”的也是“我”最珍视的，就是他鼓励“我”继续按照“我”做过的作法做。“我”作过的做法就是有胆量打断一个总裁的演讲，所以，接下去应该是D，是总裁对“我”所作鼓励的具体内容。
