Walt Disney was born in 1901. The Mickey Mouse created（創造）in 1927 made him famous. He died in 1966, but his work and his dreams did not die. Every year, people all over the world enjoy his old Mickey Mouse and other animated cartoons. Millions of people also came to the United States to enjoy Disneyland in California and Disney World and EPCOT in Florida. Although Disney's work was extraordinary, in many ways Walt Disney was an ordinary man. He was born in Chicago and had a rather typical childhood in the Midwest. His family was not rich or successful. In fact, his father failed in business several times. Walt had to work hard, but he did not mind.
He was a man who did not give up easily. One summer, Walt wanted a job at the post office, but they told him he was too young. He went home, drew some lines on his face, and put on his father' s suit and hat. Then he went back to the same office and told them he was 18. They gave him the job.
Later in his life, Disney had a dream. He wanted to build a new kind of amusement park. It would be clean and beautiful. There would be rides for children and nice hotels for adults. It would be fun for people of all ages. Disney drew a plan for this park. It was called Disneyland. Engineers told him it was an impossible dream. His family and friends thought he was mad, but Disney did not give up his idea. In 1955, Disneyland opened its gates to the public and became the most successful amusement park in the United States.

Millions of people pass through the gates of Disney's entertainment parks in California, Florida and Japan each year. What makes these places an almost universal attraction? What makes foreign kings and queens and other important people want to visit these Disney parks? Well, one reason is the way they're treated once they get there. The people at Disney go out of their way to serve their“guests”, as they prefer to call them, and to see that they enjoy themselves.
All new employees, from vice presidents to part-time workers, begin their employment by attending Disney University and taking “Traditions I”. Here, they learn about the company's history, how it is managed and why it is successful. They are shown how each department relates to the whole. All employees are shown how their part is important in making the part a success.
After passing“Traditions I”, the employees go on to more specialized training for their specific (具體的) jobs. No detail is missed. A simple job like taking tickets requires four eight-hour days of training. When one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple ordinary job, he replied, “What happens if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or what bus to take back to the campgrounds?... We need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. Our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy party.”
Even Disney's managers get involved in the daily management of the park. Every year, the managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes. For a full week, the bosses sell hot dogs or ice cream, take tickets or drive the monorail(單軌車), and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the entertainment park come alive. The managers agree that this week helps them to see the company's goals more clearly.
All these efforts to serve the public well have made Walt Disney Productions famous. Disney is considered by many as the best mass service provided in America or the world. As one long-time business observer once said, “How Disney treats people, communicates with them, rewards them, is in my view the very reason for his fifty years of success ... I have watched, very carefully and with great respect and admiration, the theory and practice of selling satisfaction and serving millions of people on a daily basis, successfully. It is what Disney does best.”
(1)The first day they come to Disney parks, all new employees ________.
[ ]
A．begin by receiving on-the-job training
B．must learn several jobs
C．begin as ticket takers
D．have already attended Disney University
(2)The main objective of the Disney employees is to ________.
[ ]
A．learn all parts of the business
B．see that their guests enjoy themselves
C．be able to answer all kinds of questions
D．keep their important guests happy
(3)Each year, managers wear special service clothes and work in the park to ________.
[ ]
A．set a good example for employees
B．remind themselves of their beginning at Disney
C．gain a better view of the company's objectives
D．replace employees on holiday

The Making of a Surgeon
How does a doctor recognize the point in time when he is finally a “surgeon”? As my year as chief resident(進修醫生) drew to a close, I asked myself this question 36 more than one occasion.
The answer, I concluded, was 37 . When you can say to yourself, “There is no surgical patient I cannot treat competently, treat just 38 or better than any other surgeon” — then, and not until then, you are 39 a surgeon. I was 40 that point.
41 , for example, the emergency situations that we met almost every night. The first few months of the year I had 42 the ringing of the telephone. I knew it meant another critical decision to be 43 . Often, after I had told Walt or Larry what to do in a particular 44 , I’d have trouble getting back to sleep. I’d 45 all the facts of the case and, often, wonder 46 I had made a poor decision. More than once at two or three in the 47 , after lying awake for an hour, I’d get out of 48 , dress and drive to the hospital to see the patient myself. It was the only 49 I could find the 50 of mind I needed to relax.
Now, in the last month of my residency, 51 was no longer a problem. Sometimes I still couldn’t be sure of my decision, but I had learned to 52 this as a constant problem for a surgeon. I knew that with my knowledge and experience, any decision I’d made was bound to be a 53 one. It was a nice feeling.
This all sounds conceited(自負的) and I guess it is — 54 a surgeon needs conceit. He needs it to encourage him in trying moments when he’s bothered by the 55 and uncertainties that are part of the practice of medicine. He has to feel that he’s as good as and probably better than any other surgeon in the world. Call it conceit — call it self-confidence; whatever it was, I had it.
36. A. at B. in C. on D. for
37. A. self-service B. self-centered C. self-reliant D. self-confidence
38. A. as good as B. as well as C. as far as D. as long as
39. A. indeed B. maybe C. perhaps D. even
40. A. waiting B. standing C. lying D. nearing
41. A. Let B. Take C. Have D. Get
42. A. valued B. avoided C. feared D. enjoyed
43. A. made B. applied C. included D. developed
44. A. condition B. state C. occasion D. situation
45. A. retell B. review C. revise D. remind
46. A. if B. why C. how D. when
47. A. evening B. day C. morning D. afternoon
48. A. flat B. bed C. house D. apartment
49. A. means B. approach C. method D. way
50. A. peace B. trouble C. sorrow D. excitement
51. A. driving B. reviewing C. sleeping D. lying
52. A. expect B. accept C. respect D. inspect
53. A. critical B. poor C. sound D. difficult
54. A. but B. or C. so D. and
55. A. confidence B. conceit C. solutions D. doubts
