听力原文： Nobody likes staying at home on a holiday weekend--especially if the weather is fine. Last fourth of July we decided to spend the day in the country. The only difficulty was that thousands of other people had exactly the same idea. We moved out of town slowly in heavy traffic, but at last we were able to turn off on a quiet side road and, after some time, stopped near an old farmhouse. We had brought plenty of food with us in a big picnic basket and we got the basket out of the car. We spread things out on the ground near a path at the foot of a hill. Everything was ready now, so we sat down. It was very peaceful in the cool grass until we heard bells ringing at the top of the hill. What we saw made us pick up our things and run back to the car as quickly as possible. There was a flock of a hundred or more sheep coming down the path directly towards us!

Now we all jot down the number whenever we make a call, especially the long distance calls, and we have no more telephone problems.

As she moved from one friend's house to another, Carr began working toward a high-school- equivalence diploma, listening to self-help tapes and making cheesecakes. After developing some new methods which she thought were pretty good, she offered her cakes to a restaurant. They sold out in a matter of hours.
The following year, she met a man at a church service and before long, they married. Carr began selling the cheesecakes out of their home. Later she opened a cheesecake company. As business became better and better, Carr didn't forget where she came from.
All the women she hires are mothers or high-school dropouts (退学者)--workers most other employers wouldn't like to hire. Her dozen workers make 100 to 150 cakes a week and Cart owes her success to her employees. She says, "We're going to have a learning center and a day-care center in the company. Part of the workday will be spent studying for high-school-equivalence diplomas."
Recently, a 33-year-old woman with three children to raise was referred to Cart. She hired her at once. "It has been a real blessing," the woman said.
The text suggests that Lynn Carr ______.
A．was once a school dropout herself
B．had few friends to turn to for help
C．had to sell her car for a new one
D．didn't work hard enough to keep her job
Character is made up of those principles and values that give your life direction, meaning and depth. These constitute your inner sense of what's right and wrong based not on laws or rules of conduct but on who you are. They include such traits as integrity, honesty, courage, fairness and generosity--which arise from the hard choices we have to make in life. So wrong is simply in doing wrong, not in getting caught.
Yet some people wonder if our inner values matter anymore. After all, hasn't our noted bank executive succeeded in every visible way, despite his transgressions (过错,犯罪)？
This question demonstrates a quandary (因境) of our modern life. Many have come to believe that the only things we need for success are talent, energy and personality. But history has taught us that over the long haul, who we are is more important than who we appear to be.
During the nation's first century and a half, almost everything in the literature of success and self-help focused on what could be called the character ethic. Such eminent figures as Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson made clear their belief that we can only experience tree success and happiness by making character the base of our lives.
After we moved into the industrial age and after World WarⅠ, the basic view of success shifted to what we could call the personality ethic. Success became more a function of charm, skills and techniques that, at least on the surface, lubricate (使润滑) the process of human interaction. Rather than struggle with thorny issues of right and wrong, we turned to making things run smoothly.
Some of that philosophy expressed itself with harmless but superficial maxims such as "Smiling wins more friends than frowning." Other ideas were clearly manipulative or even deceptive-faking interest in others' hobbies so they will like you, for instance.
With a value system based solely on skill and personality, we find heroes in athletes, musicians and in powerful business executives. But despite the admiration we feel for these achievers, we shouldn't necessarily look upon them as role models. While skill is certainly needed for success, it can never guarantee happiness and fulfillment. These come from developing character.
According to the passage, character is（）.
A.your integrity
B.your personality
C.a guide in your life
D.your sense of good
