When I told John, he was 51 as I expected him to be. “Y ou have your whole life to work,” he said. “Y our 52 days are limited. Y ou can’t afford to waste them.” I stood before him with my head 53 , trying to think of the 54 that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his 55 in me.

In 1971, a young man who grew up very poor was traveling across the country, trying to make a new start for himself. Along the way he had completely run out of money and was forced to spend the night in his car. This continued until one morning, after a week of sleeping in his car, he walked nervously into a restaurant and ordered a big breakfast.

After eating his first good meal in weeks, he lied to the waiter, telling him he had lost his wallet. This waiter, who was also the owner of the restaurant, walked behind the chair where the young man had been sitting. He bent down, and came up with a $20 bill that looked as if it had fallen on the floor and said, “Y ou must have dropped this,” the owner said. The young man couldn’t believe his luck. He quickly paid for the breakfast, left a tip, bought gas with the money, and went to the West.

On the way out of town, he began to understand what that man did. Maybe nobody dropped the money. “Maybe that man knew I was in trouble and he helped me in a way that didn’t hurt me. So I just made a promise to help other people if I can.”

Later, he worked very hard and became a rich man. Now, he lives in Kansas City. Each year he gives away thousands of dollars. He is known as the “Secret Santa(圣诞老人)” because at Christmas time each year, he personally hands money out to those on the street and at restaurants.

Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活)if the rain is spread throughout the year, If it falls, within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.

Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.

There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand , rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing —very, very slowly —as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.

Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that :have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.

68. Many plants may survive in deserts when___________.

A. it is dry all the year round

B. the rain falls only in a few weeks

C. there is little rain in a year

D. the rain is spread out in a year

69. Sand dunes are formed when___________.

A. sand piles up gradually

B. there is plenty of rain in a year

C. the sea has dried up over the years

D. pieces of rock get smaller

70. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert there

is_________.

A. too much sand

B. more sand than before

C. something else besides sand

D. nothing except sand

71. It can be learned from the text that in a desert____________.

A. life exists in rough conditions

B. there is no rainfall throughout the year

C. all sand dunes are a few feet high

D. rocks are worn away only by wind and heat

My father and I started our morning by moving quickly into the local store. I waited in the line at t he Starbucks counter while he shopped around to pick up a few things.

As I was starting there I become aware of an elderly women, with untidy hair, wearing layers up on layers of old clothing, hunchbacked (弯背的) behind me in line. She had a few things for washing and seemed to want the Starbucks cashier to ring up since that queue was shorter than the queues in the store.

At some point I became aware of her edging (慢慢挪动) closer behind me — closer than I was comfortable with! I instinctively (本能地) placed a hand over my purse and drew it close to me. My fear and imagination raced creating wild stories about this homeless woman who might try to ste al from me.

Then it was my turn to order. As the cashier rang Y psilanti my total, I discovered I was 67 cents s hort. I called my father but he was hard of hearing. He asked me to repeat what I said but he still cou ldn’t make me out. At that point, a long, grey arm, with holes in its sleeves, reached over from behind me. She laid 67 cents out on the counter, saying, “Here, we all need some help sometimes.”

I was stunned! Here was a woman who clearly had very little to give and was i n great need herself. I had judged her wrongly and she had offered to reach out to help me!

Dear Mickey,

Our English club was started two years ago. Those who are interested in it have come to join it, including many foreign friends and college students. In the club we practice speaking English and talk about some topics we are fond of. We also like to exchange some experience in learning English with each other.

Next week our club is to hold a get-together. I’d lik e to invite you to take part in many interesting activities here. This morning I came to see you but you happened to be out, so I left you a note with a map .Following the map below, you can get to our club.

When you get to the school gate, you’ll see a garden in front of you with the teaching building on the right and the library and the science lab on the left. Go westward along the garden until you reach the turning. Then make a right turn .Go straight ahead past the library and the science lab until you come to a small river. After you cross the bridge over it, you’ll see two buildings ahead. On the left is the very English club you want to look for.

Besides, I must remind you not to take along your dog with you to the club. Y ou must also speak English as often as possible.
