We were sitting in her classroom, giggling each other and talking about the latest information of the day. Mrs. Virginia De View, whose physical appearance made her an easy target for snickers(窃笑)and cruel jokes among students, cleared her throat and asked us to be silent.
“Now,” Mrs. Virginia De View said, smiling, “we are going to discover our professions.” The class seemed to be greatly surprised. We were only 13 and 14 years old.
“Yes, you will all be searching for your future professions,” she said, “You will have to do a research paper on your upcoming career. Each of you will have to interview someone in your field, plus give an oral report.”
Finally, I picked print journalism, and interviewed a true-blue newspaper reporter in the flesh. After a few days, I gave my oral report totally from memory in class. I got an A on the entire project.
Years later, I forgot all about Virginia DeView and the careers we selected. I was in college looking around for a new career, but with no success. Then I remembered Virginia DeView and my desire at 13 to be a journalist. And I called my parents. They didn’t stop me. They just reminded me how competitive
D. To inform students of training time.
22. What can a trainee get after finishing ESL program C. Diploma in Language Education.
the field was. This was true. But journalism did something to me; it was in my blood. For the past 12 years, I’ve had the most incredible and satisfying reporting career. I get asked all the time: “How did you pick journalism”
“Well, you see, there was this teacher…” I always start out. Virginia DeView will probably never know without her help. I would not have become a journalist and a writer. I wonder now how many other students benefited from that career project.
I believe that when people reflect back over their school days, there will be their very own Virginia DeView. Perhaps you can thank her before it’s too late.
24. What did the students think of Mrs. Virginia’s project in her class A. Harmful.

Life on Earth evolve(进化)through the passing on of genes. How does culture evolve
The evolution biologist, Richard Dawkins, coined the term “meme” in his book The Selfish Gene. According to Dawkins, while genes are the pieces of biological information from our parents which determines our appearance and how we grow, memes are units of cultural information—ideas and beliefs—that “pass from brain to brain”. Like genes, memes must compete for survival—if a meme cannot gain our attention, it disappears.
Basically, any shared idea related to culture is a meme. Myths, for example, are memes. Every society has its own stories that have survived, with some variations, for hundreds or thousands of years. The mythological dragon in Chinese culture is an idea that has been successfully passed between people for generation, and is therefore also a meme.
Historically, memes have spread very gradually by word of mouth. Within Internet culture, though, a successful idea can be shared between millions of people within a few hours. Internet memes (which may, for example, take the form of an image, a video or a website) may not last long, but they are particularly catching. They are shared, “liked”, copied and thus rapidly grown.
Then why do some ideas succeed in gaining our attention while others fail to attract us It’s difficult to say, but humour is generally a factor(因素). People are most likely to forward something to their friends if they think it is funny, the easier it is to digest, the further the meme travels. Other memes may gain ground because they are something out of the ordinary. Aside from pure entertainment, Internet memes have a commercial aspect. Given their mass appeal, it is no surprise that advertisements turn up alongside them.
