Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say.
One day I went up to Michael and asked him, “I don’t get it. You can’t be positive all the time. How do you do it?” Michael replied, “Each morning I wake up and say to myself ‘Mike, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.’ I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining(抱怨) I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.”
I often thought about that when I made a choice about life. Several years later, Michael was involved in a serious accident, falling off 60 feet from a communica-tion tower. After l8 hours of operation, and weeks of intensive care, Michael was re-leased from the hospital with rods placed in his back.I asked him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.
“The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter,” Michael replied. “Then, as I lay on the ground, I remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or I could choose to die. In the operation room, I told the doctors and nurses, ‘I’m choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead’.”

With another invention in use, viewers will be also able to watch TV while walking to the office, taking a bus or simply waiting in line for lunch.
A Beijing-based company named Innofidei Inc. claims to have developed the first mobile TV chip for the market, which can change hundreds of thousands of mobiles into micro-TVs.
With this chip, people can receive TV signals on their phones and watch programs without any time or space limitations.
“As long as the handset terminal(接收终端设备) has a colored screen and a battery, our chip can turn it into a mobile TV,” said Meng Fei, director of Innofidei’s business development department. The chip can be placed into a cell phone, a PDA, an MP4, a digital camera or even a laptop. He said that this, together with plans by China’s state broadcaster, would ensure the 2008 Games lives up to its promise as a “People’s Olympics”.
“Our chips are cheap so that cell phones with them will not be much different in price from regular phones,” Meng said. “CCTV will offer some free channels during the Games, so people can enjoy the Olympics for free.”
SARFT(国家广播电影电视总局) is planning to build a regional test network in Beijing and hopes to start trials as soon as possible. The goal is to deploy CMMB (部署中国移动多媒体广播) on a national level by the first half of 2008.
Innofidei is now busy selling their chips to cell phone makers so that the new generation of phones reaches the market in early 2008.
“Our invention successfully combines the good points of the two best-selling consumer products in history—TV sets and cell phones, ” said Meng. “In the near future, soccer fans won’t be tearing their hair out because they are stuck in traffic and missing the chance to see their favorite team’s play.”
Local baseball fans, meanwhile, will be able to draw comfort from the knowledge that—both at the Olympics and afterwards—their teams will be playing on a field designed to help recycle water.
39. Which of the following CANNOT be turned into a mobile TV according to the passage?
A. A cell phone. B. A PDA. C. An MP3. D. A laptop.
40. Which of the following would possibly happen with the invention of the chip?
A. Sports fans watch Olympic Games on cell phones in 2008.
B. People watch video CDs on the MP4.
C. A game addict plays 3D games on a PDA.
D. Listening to news broadcast on radio.
41. We can infer from the passage that _______.
A. we cannot buy a mobile TV before the 2008 Olympic Games.
B. soccer fans will be angry when they miss the chance to see a TV program.
C. the baseball field will play a part in helping recycle water.
D. the invention of the chip successfully combines TV sets and cell phones.
42. The best title for this passage would be “_______”.
A. A new invention for Olympics B. A new generation of cell phones
C. Watching live games on TV for free D. People’s Olympics
