  补全短文career in business

  Shortly after I began a career in business, I learned that Carl Weatherup, president of PepsiCo (百事可乐公司), was speaking at the University of Colorado. I tracked down the person handling his schedule and managed to get myself an appointment.__________。(46)

  So there I was sitting outside the universitys auditorium, waiting for the president of PepsiCo. I could hear him talking to the students.。, and talking, and talking.__________(47) He was now five minutes over, which dropped my time with him down to 10 minutes. Decision time.

  I wrote a note on the back of my business card, reminding him that he had a meeting. "You have a meeting with Jeff Hoye at 2:30 p.m." I took a deep breath, pushed open the doors of the auditorium and walked straight up the middle aisle (过道) toward him as he talked. Mr. Weatherup stopped.__________(48) Just before I reached the door, I heard him tell the group that he was running late. He thanked them for their attention, wished them luck and walked out to where I was now sitting, holding my breath.

  He looked at the card and then at me. "Let me guess," he said. "Youre Jeff." He smiled.

  __________(49)He spent the next 30 minutes offering me his time, some wonderful stories that I still use, and an invitation to visit him and his group in New York. But what he gave me that I value the most was the encouragement to continue to do as I had done.__________(50) When things need to happen, you either have the nerve to act or you dont.

  A I began breathing again and we grabbed (霸占) an office right there at school and closed the door.

  B As I sat listening to him, I knew that I could trust him, and that he deserved every bit of loyalty I could give to him.

  C I became alarmed: his talk wasnt ending when it should have.

  D He said that it took nerve for me to interrupt him, and that nerve was the key to success in the business world.

  E I was told, however, that he was on a tight schedule and only had 15 minutes available after his talk to the business class.

  F I handed him the card then I turned and walked out the way I came.

  答案:E C F A D
