Hearing this, my son burst into tears and 42, Did I do it wrong? Is God mad at me? As I 43 him and assured（使确信）him that he had done a terrific 44 and God was certainly not mad at him, an 45 gentleman approached the table.

We lived on a farm, in the winter especially, we were quite out off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that my life has its too. One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and the air is so that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it became of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous. Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever you tastes in culture or entertainment(娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising - and , what is more, shops are often only a short walk away. Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is , when you are in your teens(十几岁)or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.56. What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child? A. Staying on the farm. B. Moving to the countryside. C. Leaving home for the city. D. Running away from the school.57. Which of the following is true about the writer? A. He is very old now. B. He is in good health. C. He prefers driving a car. D. He lives in the city now.58. In the passage, the writer tries to _. A. express his opinions about way of life B. describe his life in the countryside C. an interest in the outside world D. persuade the reader to live in the city59. How is the passage mainly developed? A. By inferring. B. By paring. C. By listing examples. D. By giving explanations.BWhere we live, on the eastern shore of Maryland, the gentle waters run in and out like fingers slimming at the tips.The Canada geese know this place, as do the white swans and ducks. In the autumn, they e home for the winter. Once or twice each year, snow and frozen rain move into the area. When this happens, if the river is at its narrowest, there is a freeze which hardens the water to the ice.One morning, a friend of mine set the breakfast table beside the huge window, which overlooked the Tred Avon River. Suddenly she leaned forward and cried out, “There is a goose outthere.”We saw the figure of a large Canada goose, very iii, its wings folded tight to its sides, its feet frozen to the ice.Then from the dark sky, she saw a line of swans. They floated from the top of the sky downward and at last landed on the ice. My friend was on her feet now, with one unbelieving hand against her mouth. As the swans surrounded the frozen goose, she feared what life it still had might be pecked（啄）out by those great swan beaks.Instead, those beaks began to work on the ice. The long necks were lifted and curved down, again and again. It went on for a long time. At last, the gooses head lifted. Its body pulled. Then the goose was free and standing on the ice. And the swans stood in the air watching. Then, as if it had cried, “I cannot fly,” four of the swans came down around it. Their powerful beaks chipped off the ice and held in the feathers. Slowly, the goose spread its wings as far as they could go, and moved slowly into the sky.This is a true story. I just think of it in the bad moments, and from it es only one hopeful question:“ If so for birds, why not for man?”60. What happened to the Canada goose?A. It was deserted by other geese. B. It was stuck in the ice. C. It was wounded and couldnt fly. D. It was lost in the water.61. At first the authors friend was worried that _. A. the swans would not help the Canada goose B. the swans would have the same fate with the Canada goose C. the Canada goose wouldnt identify with the swans D. the swans would peck the Canada goose to death62. What did the swans do when they saw the Canada goose couldnt fly? A. They chipped off the ice held in its feathers. B. They waited patiently for the ice held in its feathers to melt. C. They came down and lifted it up to the sky together. D. They stayed with it and protected it.63. What would probably happen to the authors friend in the end? A. She stood there, watching attentively, still feeling a bit worried. B. She was on her feet, laughing at the swans and the Canada goose. C. She was embarrassed and went on with her breakfast silently. D. She stood there quietly, not realizing tears had e down her cheeks.CFeet are an important part of you. Without them, you couldnt stand up, walk around, or run a race. In fact, your feet work so hard for you that sometimes they get sweaty. Think of a hot, summer day when youve been walking around an amusement park all afternoon. Oooh, boy your feet have been in those sneakers a long time! On the car ride home, you decide to kick off your shoes. It feels good, but it smells bad. In fact, you might get an earful from the other passengers in the car: P.U. what stinks?Bacteria are to blame. These tiny critters normally inhabit your feet and love dark, damp places like the insides of sweaty shoes. They multiply in sweat, so if you dont wear socks, that really gets them going.In the right conditions, bacteria will have a good meal on your feet. These bacteria eat dead skin cells and oils from your skin. Their families will grow and start getting rid of waste in the form of organic acids（有机酸）. Its those organic acids that smell bad.And for 10% to 15% of people, the smell is really bad. Why? Because their feet are extra sweaty and bee home to bacteria. These bacteria produce more than just stinky organic acids they also produce stuff called volatile sulfur pounds. Sulfur pounds usually are powerful and awfully smelly. If youve ever smelled a rotten egg, you know what volatile sulfur pounds smell like.64. What on earth makes your feet smell bad?A. The sweatB. The sneakersC. BacteriaD. Dead skin cells65. How can bacteria live on your feet?A. They live on volatile sulfur pounds.B. They can find food in the sweaty conditionC. They eat organic acids on the skin of your feet D. They eat dead skin cells and oils from yor skin66. Among 200 people, how many peoples feet really smell bad?A. 10-15 B. 15-20 C. 20-30D. 30-4067. If you dont want to make your feet stinky, youd better _.A. not wear socksB. not wear sneakersC. keep your shoes dryD. make your shoes wetDI was parked in front of the mall wiping off my car. I had just e from the car wash and was waiting for my wife to get out of work. ing my way from across the parking lot was what society would consider a bum. From the looks of him, he had no car, no home, no clean clothes, and no money. There are times when you feel generous but there are other times that you just dont want to be bothered. This was one of those dont want to be bothered times. I hope he doesnt ask me for any money, I thought. He didnt. He came and sat on the curb in front of the bus stop but he didnt look like he could have enough money to even ride the bus. After a few minutes he spoke. Thats a very pretty car, he said. He was ragged but he had an air of dignity around him. His scraggly blond beard keep more than his face warm. I said, thanks, and continued wiping off my car. He sat there quietly as I worked. The expected plea for money never came. As the silence between us widened something inside said, ask him if he needs any help. I was sure that he would say yes but I held true to the inner voice. Do you need any help? I asked. He answered in three simple but profound words that I shall never forget. We often look for wisdom in great men and women. We expect it from those of higher learning and acplishments. I expected nothing but an outstretched grimy hand. He spoke the three words that shook me. Dont we all? he said. 68.
