Start with the end and work backwards
When Jason Hoelscher was an undergraduate of fine art studies, there weren’t any professional development classes. So ambition and the timely realization 1 he would have to determine “what’s next” on his own urged Jason to engage his future self to find direction. It was 1996, and he was finishing his BFA (Bachelor of Fine Art) in Denver. He was faced with the choice of sitting back to wait for something 2 (happen), or pursuing a path into the unknown. He chose the latter.
Jason set up a plan that in five years he 3 (show) his work in the top gallery in that area of the country. This five-year goal gave him a starting point 4 which to work backwards.
By setting the goal, all of Jason’s efforts 5 (point) in the same direction. He showed up at different art show openings, and researched as best he could to make 6 familiar with the market environment.
As a result of showing up, Jason took opportunities 7 got him closer to his goal. He sent work to a student show and was accepted by Robin Rule, the owner of Rule Gallery. 8 (inspire), Jason spent the next month making new work.
In April of 1997, Jason went back to Rule Gallery with his new work. 9 scared to death, he looked confident at the gallery meeting. When he left, he left as the newest addition to the rule gallery roster (花名册). He had his first exhibition there one year later.
Jason could have stopped with the show selection, but what he really wanted was gallery representation. He struck while the iron was hot, and in 10 (do) so, shortened his five-year plan into a year-and-a-half. Section B

For millenniums most people’s lives had a certain 11 . You went to school to learn a trade or a skill-baking, farming or accounting. Then you could go into the workforce and make a good living repeating the same skill over the course of your career.
But these days machines can do pretty much anything that’s 12 . The new world requires a different sort of person. Drayton calls this new sort of personal changemaker.
Changemakers are people who can see the patterns around them, identify the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problem, organize fluid teams, lead collective action and then 13 adapt as situations change.
For example, Ashoka fellow Andrés Gallardo is a Mexican who lived in a high crime neighborhood. He created an app, called Haus, that allows people to 14 with their neighbors. The app has a panic button that 15 everybody in the neighborhood when a crime is happening. It allows neighbors to organize, chat, share crime statistics and work together.
To form and lead this community of communities, Gallardo had to possess what Drayton calls “cognitive empathy-based living for the good of all.” Congnitive empathy is the ability to perceive how people are feeling in 16 circumstances. “For the good of all” is the capacity to build teams.
It doesn’t matter if you are working in the cafeteria or the inspection line of a plant, companies will now only hire people who can 17 problems and organize responses.
Millions of people already live with the mind-set. But a lot of people still inhabit the world of following rules and repetitive skills. They hear society telling them: We don’t need you. We don’t need your kids, either.” Of course, those people go into reactionary mode and strike back.
The central 18 of our time, Drayton says, is to make everyone a changemaker. In an earlier era, he says, society realized it needed universal 19 . Today, schools have to develop the curriculums and assessments to make the changemaking mentality universal. They have to understand this is their criteria for success.
Ashoka has studied social movements to find out how this kind of 20 shift can be promoted. It turns out that successful movements take similar steps. III. Reading Comprehension Section A

Directions: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the work or phrase that best fits the context.
More people are travelling than ever before, and lower harriers to entry and falling costs means they are doing so for 21 periods.
The rise of “city breaks” --48-hour bursts of foreign cultures, easier on the pocket and annual leave balance has increased tourist numbers, but not their 22 spread. The same attractions have been used to market cities such as Paris, Barcelona and Venice for decades, and visitors use the same infrastructure as residents to reach them. “Too many people do the same thing at the exact same time,” says Font. “For 23 , the city no longer belongs to them.”
This starts with marketing, says Font, who notes that Amsterdam has started advising visitors to seek 24 outside of the city centre on its official website. “That takes some balls, really to do that. But only so many people will look at the website, and it means they can say to their residents they’re doing all they can [to ease congestion].”
But it also 25 a better way, it is called “detourism”: sustainable travel tips an 26 itineraries for exploring an authentic Venice, off the paths beaten by the 28 million visitors who flock there each year.
A greater variety of 27 for prospective visitors ideas for what to do in off-peak seasons, for example, or outside of the city center can have the effect of diverting them from already saturated landmarks, or 28 short breaks away in the first place. Longer stays 29 the pressure, says Font. If you go to Paris for two days, you’re going to go to the Eiffel Tower. “If you go for two weeks, you’re not going to go to the Eiffel Tower 14 times.”
Similarly, repeat visitors have a better sense of the 30 , “We should be asking how we get tourists to 31 , not how to get them to come for the first time. If they’re coming for the fifth time, it is much easier to integrate their behavior with ours.”
Local governments can foster this sustainable activity by giving preference to responsible operator and even high-paying consumers. Font says cities could stand to be more selective about the tourists they try to attract when the current metric for marketing success is how many there are, and how far they’ve come. “You’re thinking, ‘yeah but at what cost...’.”
He points to unpublished data from the Barcelona Tourist Board that prioritizes Japanese tourists for spending an average of �40 more per day than French tourist as a(n) 32 that fails to take into account their bigger carbon footprint. 33 tourists are also more likely to be repeat visitors that come at off-peak times, buy local produce, and 34 to less crowded parts of the city all productive steps
