When I took him my shoes, he at first told me: “I havent time. Take them to the other fellow on the main street; hell fix them for you right away.”But Id had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman. “No,” I replied, “The other fellow cant do it well.”“The other fellow” was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait” - without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap (鞋带) ,you might as well just throw away the pair.My man saw I wouldnt give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron (围裙), looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, “Come back in a week.”I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boot off a shelf. “See what I can do” he said with pride. “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work.”When I got back out into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something out of an ancient legend, an old craftsman with his way of speaking, his pride in his craft.These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things any old way as long as it “pays”, when, in short, people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption (消费) rather than a way to realize their own abilities. In such a period, it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done.56. Which of the following is true about the old cobbler?A. He had the best repairing tools. B. He was the only cobbler in the Marais.C. He was proud of his skills. D. He was a native Parisian.57. The sentence “He was something out of an ancient legend.” (paragraph6) implies that .A. nowadays you can hardly find anyone like himB. it was difficult to communicate with this manC. the man was very strange D. the man was too old58. According to the author, many people work just to .A. realize their abilities B. gain happiness C. make money D. gain respect59. This story wants to tell us that .A. craftsmen make a lot of money B. whatever you do, do it wellC. craftsmen need self-respect D. people are born equalBPhyllis Wheatley is regarded as Americas first black poet. She was born in Senegal, Africa in about 1753 and brought to America at about the age of seven. John and Susannah Wheatley bought her for three pounds at a slave (奴隶) market in Boston in 1761. Phyllis was soon accepted as one of the family, which included being raised and educated with the Wheatleys twin 15-year-old children, Mary and Nathaniel. At that time, most females, even from better families, could not read and write, but Mary was probably one of the best educated young women in Boston. Mary wanted to become a teacher, and in fact, it was Mary who decided to take charge of Phyllis Wheatleys education. Phyllis soon showed her remarkable talents. At the age of twelve she was reading the Greek and Latin classics.At the age of thirteen, Phyllis wrote her first poem. She became a Boston sensation (引起轰动的人物) after she wrote a poem on the death of the preacher George Whitfield in 1770. It became common to read Phyllis Wheatleys poetry in polite society. Mary had tried to interest publishers in Phyllis Wheatleys poems, but once they heard she was black they werent interested.Then in 1773 Phyllis went with Nathaniel, who was now a businessman, to London. Thirty-nine of her poems were published in London as Poems on Various Subjects. It was the first book published by a black American. In 1775 Phyllis wrote a poem about George Washington and sent it to him. He responded by praising her talents and inviting her to visit his headquarters. After both of her benefactors (恩人) died in 1777 and in 1778, Phyllis was freed. She married in 1778, moved away from Boston, and had three children. But after the unhappy marriage, she moved back to Boston, and died in poverty in 1783.60. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Those days the black were looked down upon.B.

She said, “The plans Ive seen look unbelievably exciting, and I dont think fans of the books or films will be disappointed.”Stuart Craig, the man in charge of the design of the park, is an Oscar-winning production designer who worked on the Harry Potter films so it should be faithful(忠实的) to JK Rowlings vision.Stuart Craig said, “Our primary goal is to make sure this experience is an authentic extension(原著的延伸) of Harry Potters world as it is portrayed in the books and films.”Visitors to the park will be able to explore some of their favourite places from the book such as the village of Hogsmeade, the Forbidden Forest and, of course, Hogwarts Castle, where Harry goes to school.Although fans can look forward to a holiday in the Harry Potter theme park, many will be saddened by the fact that the best-selling series (系列)is now drawing to a close.The final instalment(分期连载的一部分) in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, will be published on 21 July, and to mark the event JK Rowling is to read extracts(摘录) from the book to a select audience at midnight on the day of publication.Rowling has announced that two characters die in the final book, but has not revealed(透露) if Harry is one of them so fans will have to wait to find out the fate of their magical hero.63.

The captain then addressed me as if I was his equal, which was very pleasing to a young fellow like me. Sir, said he, Mr. Balfour tells me great things of you, and I like your looks. I wish I was staying here longer so that we might become friends. But well make the most of the short time that we have. You must come on board my brig(双桅船) for half an hour and have a drink with me. Now, I cannot describe how eager I was to see the inside of a ship. But I was not going to put myself in danger, and I told him my uncle and I had an appointment with a lawyer. Yes, said he, he told me of that. But, you see, the boat will set you on shore farther along, near Ran Keillors house. And here he suddenly leaned down and whispered in my ear: Take care; the old devil(恶魔) has evil plans. Come on board till I can have a word with you. Then, passing his arm through mine, he continued aloud, as he set off towards his boat: Now what can I bring you from Carolina? Any friend of Mr. Balfour can ask for what he likes. A roll of tobacco? Indian feather work? A wild beasts skin? A stone pipe? A mocking-bird that cries just like a cat? Make your choice and give your order. By this time we were beside his boat and he was helping me in. I did not dream of refusing. I thought (like a fool) that I had found a friend and helper, and I was looking forward to seeing the ship. As soon as we were all in our places the boat was pushed off and began to move over the water. I was so delighted with this new experience that I hardly understood what the captain said, and must have answered him without thinking. As soon as we were alongside, Hoseason ordered a rope and chair to be sent down, declaring that he and I must be the first to go on board. I was lifted into the air and set down again on the deck(甲板), where the captain stood waiting for me and immediately slipped his arm under mine. I stood there, rather confused and perhaps a little afraid, but delighted with the strange things all around me, while the captain pointed out some of the strangest and told me their names and uses. And then I saw that my uncle was not with us. I felt I was lost. With all my strength, I tore myself out of the captains grasp and ran to the side of the ship. Yes, there was the ship being rowed back to the shore, with my uncle sitting in it. I gave a wild cryso loud that it rang out over the harbor, and my uncle turned around and showed me a face full of cruelty and terror. That was the last thing I saw. Already strong hands had been pulling me back from the ships side, and now lightning seemed to strike me. I saw a great flash of fire, and fell unconscious. 67.
