58、 about three diggers. The first digger liked holding a spade (锹) without doing anything but saying that he wanted to be a boss in the future. The second digger liked complaining about the longtime work and his low salary. The third digger always quietly devoted himself to digging without making any
59、claims. Several years later, the first digger was still holding his spade in the original place and the second took an excuse of work injury for early retirement. Only the third digger became the boss of the building company. Do you understand the moral of this story? Just go to buy a red shirt and
60、work hard.”The little boy was puzzled and could not figure out the implication of the story. So he asked the contractor to explain further.

64、或安排要做的事”，故此处用动词不定式。42.

69、走过来的”，可知本段讲的应该是承包商分享自己的奋斗过程，应在这段中侧重描写承包商的努力以及他成功的细节。Paragraph 2的开头是“听了承包商的话，小男孩思索良多”。显然接下来的内容应该是描写小男孩的心理活动，即他明白要想人生成功，唯一的道路就是不懈努力。【佳作展台】Paragraph 1：The contractor told the boy that was also how he had got where he was then. Actually the building contractor had once worked hard and outperformed other
70、s through his own constant efforts. If he had worn the same shirt just like other workers and hadnt devoted himself to working, by no means would he have been noticed by his boss. As a matter of fact he wore his red shirt every day and worked arduously. Soon his day came. He obtained his bosss appre

He knew that if he wants to stand out among people, there is no shortcut or alternative but hard work. Actually the contractors exper
72、ience was just one good example to prove the truth of it. Then the boy thanked the contractor for his reply and said goodbye to him. When he left the construction site of the skyscraper he already had a firm resolution in his mind that he would start his own journey right then in order to fulfill his dream in time.
