In 1957, the Hearst Corporation donated the fortune to the state of California. Since that time it has been maintained as a state historic park where the estate and its considerable collection of art and antiques are open for public tours.

【1】C 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第一段第三句In 1957, the Hearst Corporation donated the fortune to the state of California.可知在1957年，the Hearst Corporation就把這個(gè)城堡捐給了加利福尼亞州，所以現(xiàn)在它屬于加州。故C正確。

【2】C 計(jì)算題。根據(jù)Ticket Prices部分中Tours 2, 3 or 4 成年人$ 24；6-17歲的人$12，那么一對(duì)夫妻2人共48美元，5歲的孩子不收費(fèi)。共48美元。故C正確。

【3】B 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)Reservation Call Center Hours部分中March-September周六到周日的電話預(yù)定時(shí)間是8AM. to 6PM，可知在三月份的星期天上午9點(diǎn)電話訂票是可以的。故B正確。

Last week I was riding my special motorbike and then stopped at a convenience store. As I was getting my wheelchair off the back, a man watched me from his car and I noticed a wheelchair in his back seat. We spoke for a moment and I asked him about the wheelchair. He answered that it was for his daughter. “Well, do you think she would like to go for a ride on my motorbike with me?” I asked. He seemed shocked that a total stranger would ask him this. He thought about it for a second and said, “OK, as long as I can follow you.” He introduced me to Amy and he sat her on my back seat. Her father followed me for a few miles and she talked non-stop about what she wanted for Christmas.

As we came back to the convenience store, she said, “This ride is the best Christmas present I could ever receive. I have been in a wheelchair my whole life and didn’t know I could do this.” I told her about some of the other things I do (ski, travel the world by myself, etc.). As her father was taking her off my bike, she turned to him and said, “Oh Daddy, I’m going to be OK. Mr. Bryant does all kinds of things, and I will too.” Her father turned away as a tear of joy rolled down his cheek. He hugged me and said, “I was sitting here praying for a gift for Amy that would encourage her. She often felt that her life was dull compared to other children. God answered my prayer just now. Now I pray that God will bless you for your gift to Amy today.” I believed what he said. Being kind and thoughtful to others, we can be an answer to prayer.
