AMany years ago a kind farmer bought a tank（桶）of gas for a mom with two children. He didn't accept any money but just smiled and said, "Pass it on to someone else."The mom was my mother. After many years, I had a similar experience.A few weeks ago as my husband and I were filling up our car with a coupon（优费卷）for 99 cents a gallon, I got into a long line to pay. I could see that the young man before me was having some kind of problem; I quickly realized that he had misunderstood the coupon and thought it was 99 cents to fill his small truck. Everyone was saying,"99 cents a gallon is so cheap-they can't give the gas away." He was embarrassed and was just calling his wife when I got to the counter（柜台）.He said to his wife, “Just come here because I don't have enough money on me.”I asked the cashier（收银员）how much his was, and she told me.I told her I would pay for it and touched the man on the arm and told him to tell his wife it had been paid for he nodded and turned back to the phone, then stopped and looked at me.“What?”I told him again, and I was so surprised to see everyone stop what they were doing to watch me as if I had just grown another head. When he asked how he could give the money back to me, I just said, "Pass it on to someone else in need!"21．Why did the author help the young man pay for the gas?A.

Books, magazines, TV, radio and films all help us to know what is going on in the world and what people are thinking about.Do you think you can communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes may tell others that you are sad. When you put up your hand in class, the teacher knows that you want to say something or ask a question. You shake your head, and people know you are saying “ No”. You nod and people know you are saying “ Yes.”Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed there are a lot of signs around you and you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many ways without words. For example, an artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, seas and many other things.25. Choose the best title for this passage.A. Ways for communicationB. The best way for communication.C. The only way for communication.D. Words can carry messages26. How can people communicate with each other?A. With words onlyB. Only without wordsC.

You can cross the street there.CThe first chocolate was eaten by people in South America hundreds of years ago. In those days, the people did not really eat chocolate. They used the cocoa bean (可可豆) to make a chocolate drink and they enjoyed it very much. Many years later, the cocoa bean was brought to other countries and people came to love the taste of chocolate.In 1824, John Cadbury opened a small shop in Britain. One of the things he sold was chocolate drink. In 1831, he opened a factory to make chocolate drink. He wanted to encourage people to drink chocolate instead of other drinks. A few years later, a man called Joseph Fry found a way to make chocolate instead of only drinking it. But at that time chocolate was very expensive and only the rich people could buy it. Later, ad more and more chocolate bars were produced and sold, it became cheaper.However, at first only plain chocolate (a kind of chocolate without milk and with very little sugar) was produced. Milk chocolate came later and this was made by adding milk to the chocolate. The first milk chocolate bar was made in C adbury’s factory in 1897. Their most famous chocolate, Cadbury’s Milk Bar, was made in 1905, It has been the most popular chocolate in Britain and around the world for over 100 years. The Cadbury factory is still in Britain and the chocolate produced there is eaten all over the world. Every year, thousands of visitors visit the factory in order to see how chocolate is made.29．Hundreds of years ago, people first began to drink chocolate in .A．South America B．South Africa C．Britain D．Australia30．John Cadbury opened a factory to make chocolate drink in .A．1824 B．1831 C．1897 D．190531．People had the chance to eat chocolate instead of drinking it for the first time .A．when chocolate was cheaperB．when more and more chocolate was producedC．when John Cadbury started to make chocolate drinkD．when Joseph Fry found a way to make chocolate bars.32．At first, not many people bought chocolate .A．because it was very expensiveB．because people didn’t like the tasteC．because they wanted to have other drinksD．because there was no chocolate sold in the shopsDMost British telephone cards are just plain green, but card collecting is becoming a popular hobby in Britain and collectors even have their own magazine, International Telephone Cards. One reason for their interest is that cards from around the world come in a wide variety of different and often very attractive designs. There are 100,000 different cards in Japan alone, and there you can put your own design onto a blank card simply by using a photograph or a business card.The first telephone cards, produced in 1976, were Italian. Five years later the first British card appeared, and now you can buy cards in more than a hundred countries.People usually start collecting cards mainly because they are attractive, small and light, and they do not need much space. It is also a cheap hobby for beginners, although for some people it becomes a serious business. In Paris, for example, there is a market where you can buy only telephone cards, and some French cards cost up to 4,000 pounds. The first Japanese card has a value of about 28,000 pounds. Most people only see cards with prices like these in their collectors’ magazine. 33． When did people in Britain begin to use phone cards?A. In 1971.B. In 1975.C. In 1976.D.
