6.A good friend of mine lives about one hour away.I called her last week and found out that she wasn't doing well at work,which would make the following year a little more difficult.After hanging up the phone,I decided to offer to help her,but I couldn't think of what to do.However,opportunities come themselves when you're not even looking for.
A few days later,some friends and I happened to be eating desserts at a restaurant in her city.As we were looking at the menu,I turned to my friends and asked them if they wanted to join in a game.After explaining the idea,they decided to take 15 minutes to make someone's day.We ordered an extra dessert,wrote a note,added a smile card and were off.However,there was one problem:I had no idea where she was.
Therefore,it was time to rely on the network.I called up a friend and got him to call her to see what she was doing and found out that she was at work.
We drove to her work place and one of my friends became the delivery(投遞)person.He went in to look for my friend,found her,didn't really answer her questions and walked out,saying he's simply a delivery person.
He ran out quickly and I bent down as we drove by to make sure she didn't follow him out.Afterwards,all of us had this huge smile on our faces.We felt as if we had just planned a surprise party or something.
A simple opportunity turned into a moment that many of us can now share.

A.Because she lives too far away from work.

11.Not being the greatest fan in the world of live performance,I took a deep breath before I entered the building,the castle theatre,and prepared myself to be bored,expecting to find it more interesting to watch the audience than the show.Then I got the shock of my life.
Wadaiko Inchiro are a group of ten young Japanese men and women using traditional drums with a history going back more than 1500years.The drums were once used for festivals and religious ceremonies and also as a means of communication during wars.Today they give an ear-blasting performance which punches out rhythms with the power to wind you.They're a welcome relief from the Scottish pipers.
Unlike other performances,the best seats are at the back of the house.Not only will your ears be protected from full blast,but you will get a fantastic view of the whole set.On stage are some of the biggest drums you will ever see and a cast wearing red,white and black headscarf.
There had been almost no publicity for the show,but the house was full of people desperate,one could only assume,for something a bit different from the unrelenting performances appearing at this world-famous festival.The solid 60-minutes show starts as it means to go on.The drums rumble into fever-pitch action as the ten-strong company strike their sticks with startling control.Their rhythmic frenzy almost immediately drugs you into submission.Trapped inside the beating of the drums,you carried swiftly through warrior war cries to emotional rhapsodies(狂想曲).Not only is this display musically impressive,but the dance is strikingly beautiful.Moving between the enormity(巨大)of the drums,the slight Japanese characters have complete synchronicity(同步性)with the flying of their sticks,which they ceremonially cross and use to command.
The biggest drum is played only by Inchiro,the leader of the group.When I ask why this is so,he refuses to admit that he is being precious about this monster of an instrument and says:"When someone else can play it as I do,I will happily move aside."Dressed all in red,he stands before it as thought he is worshipping at an altar; as he raises his sticks to the drum,he touches it sometimes tenderly and sometimes murderously.Inchiro and his drum produce a range of sounds from thunder to the trickle of rain.

46.The writer took a deep breath before entering the building because she.D
A.was excited                 B.knew it would be hot in the theatre
C.was nervous                 D.was preparing herself to be bored
47.According to the writer,there were many people watching the performance because.B
A.the drummers are dressed in different colors
B.they wanted to see something unusual
C.the people in the group are famous
D.the show had been well advertised
48.We can learn from the passage that.A
A.the drums have been linked with religion for a long time
B.the show was more exciting at the beginning than at the end
C.the drummers make controlled movements with their drums
D.the best place to see the show is the seats nearest to the drummers
49.Inchiro feels that.C
A.no one else should ever play the biggest drum
B.he must always make loud noises on his biggest drum
C.he is now the only one who can play the biggest drum well enough
D.it is very important for him to teach someone else to play the biggest drum.

18.I came to study in the United States a year ago.Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court.
After the accident,my roommate called a doctor for me.I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day.But the next day,he asked me to pay him  200 for what he had done.I was astonished.He had good reason to charge me,he said.And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury,I'd have to have a good lawyer.And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer.Now that he had helped me find a good doctor,it was only fair that I should pay him.

My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met.But after that he avoided seeing me at all.He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident,yet he hardly did anything.He simply waited to collect his money.He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him.And he made me pay him  770.
