Many of us assume that with such a last name, Peter Buffett, 52, must enjoy a life of endless privilege. But the son of billionaire investor (投資人) Warren Buffett definitely doesn’t think so.
“People who are born with a silver spoon in their mouth can fall victim (受害者) to what my father has called a silver dagger (匕首) in your back,” Buffett told Reuters in an interview. “It leads to a sense of entitlement (特權) and a lack of personal achievement.”
Entitlement, he believes, is the worst thing ever. “Anybody who acts like they deserve (應得) something ‘just because’ is a disaster,” he said.
In his new book, Life Is What You Make It: Finding Your Own Path to Fulfillment, Buffett says that the only real inheritance (遺產) handed down from his parents was a philosophy (價值觀): Forge your own path in life. It is a belief that has allowed him to follow his own passions, establish his own identity, and reap (收獲) his own successes.
Did his father ever want him to go into finance? “It was encouraged for a moment when I was open to the idea,” he told Reuters. But as he grew older, it became clear the financial world “was not speaking to my heart.”
His father accepted his choice to become a musician. He began his musical career by writing music for TV commercials (廣告). He then released his own albums.
“I am my own person and I know what I have accomplished in my life,” he told Reuters. “This isn’t about wealth or fame or money or any of that stuff, it is actually about values and what you enjoy and finding something you love doing.”
Along with the book, Buffett has begun a “Concert & Conversation” tour in which he plays the piano, talks about his life and warns against consumerist (消費主義) culture and damaging the environment.
“Economic prosperity (繁榮) may come and go; that’s just how it is,” he writes in the book. “But values are the steady currency (硬通貨) that earn us the all-important rewards.”
1. What does “It” in the second paragraph refer to?
A. A life of a top investor. B. A silver spoon in the mouth.
C. Being born to a wealthy family. D. The victim of a silver dagger in the back.
2. What does the article tell us?
A. Peter Buffett is a born musician.
B. Peter Buffett enjoys a hugely privileged life.
C. A wealthy family can benefit a child but also spoil him or her.
D. Peter Buffett was forced by his parents to take over their business.
3. The article claims that Peter Buffett owes his achievements largely to ______.
A. his passion for music B. the good education he received
C. his great determination D. the values he learned from his parents
4. Which of the following statements would Peter Buffett probably agree to?
A. Wealth is there to enjoy to the fullest.
B. A person’s value lies within.
C. Many people are fooled by economic prosperity.
D. Young people should choose their own philosophy, whatever their parents believe in.
I’m not so sure I like my friends any more. I used to like them — to be honest. We’d have lunch, talk on the phone or exchange e-mails, and they all seemed normal enough. But then came Facebook and I was introduced to a sad fact: many of my friends have dark sides that they had kept from me.
Today my friends show off the more unpleasant aspects of their personalities via Facebook. No longer hidden, they’re thrown in my face like TV commercials — unavoidable and endless advertisements for the worst of their personalities.
Take Fred. If you were to have lunch with him, you’d find him warm, and down-to-earth. Read his Facebook and you realize he’s an unbearable, food-obsessed bore. He’d pause to have a cup of coffee on his way to save a drowning man — and then write about it.
Take Andy. You won’t find a smarter CEO anywhere, but now he’s a CEO without a company to lull. So he plays Mafia Wars on Facebook. He’s doing well — level 731. Thanks to Facebook, I know he’s playing about 18 hours a day. Andy, you’ve run four companies — and this is how you spend your downtime? What happened to golf? What happened to getting another job?
Take Liz. She is positive that the H1N1 vaccine will kill us all and that we should avoid it. And then comes Chris who likes to post at least 20 times a day on every website he can find, so I get to read his thoughts twice, once on Facebook and once on Twitter.
In real life, I don’t see these sides of people. Face to face, my friends show me their best. They’re nice, smart people. But face to Facebook, my friends are like a blind date which goes horribly wrong.
I’m left with a dilemma. Who is my real friend? Is it the Liz I have lunch with or the anti-vaccine lunatic(狂人)on Facebook? Is it the Fred I can grab a sandwich with or the Fred who weeps if he’s at a party and the wine isn’t up to his standards?
1.Who is opposed to the H1N1 vaccine in the text?
A．Fred. B．Andy. C．Liz. D．Chris.
2.What’s Andy probably busy in doing now?
A．He’s running his company.
B．He’s playing golf all day.
C．He’s looking for another job.
D．He’s playing computer games.
3.According to the text, Facebook tends to ______.
A．present another side of people
B．offer some food for free
C．show endless advertisements
D．get you to more parties
4.The text is developed mainly by ______.
A．giving examples B．following the time order
C．listing figures D．raising questions
5.The author focuses on the question of ______.
A．what is Facebook B．what happened to golf
C．who is my real friend D．who can help me
