  My brother, mother and I live in a rural district of Hawaii.Our farm is at least twelve miles away from the most basic of services.Therefore, I take weekly trips to the shop to get living goods.About a month ago, 1 finished putting all the things on the car and prepared to leave.As I settled into my seat, a piece of paper on the ground caught my eye.I picked it up and read it carefully.

  The form was a receipt(收據(jù))from the State Motor Vehicle Department, recording the owner's payment of her Vehicle' s Registration fees(車輛登記費).At first I thought that I could find the owner.So I waited there for about an hour.The form might be carried away by the wind in the crowded parking lot.Would I find the owner? I looked over the form for contact or any personal data, perhaps a license tag or telephone number.I checked the date and the fees paid, noted the name of the owner and pocketed the paper.I concluded that the best and easiest step to take was to put the form in an envelope and send it to the owner the next morning.

  By the end of the week, I received a beautiful "thank you" letter from a very grateful and happy woman containing a hand written message and a card.In the letter, the owner explained how the wind rudely took her receipt away from a pocket in her car's passenger door.She had searched worriedly for quite some time.

  It felt great to know I'd helped someone avoid a loss by doing something that at first sight seemed little and unimportant.

My husband hasn’t stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It is funny now but it wasn’t at that time.

Last Friday, after doing all family   31    in town, I wanted a rest   32    catching the train, so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the    33   coffee shop—that cheap, self–service place with long    34    to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to   35    a place, and went to get a cup of coffee.

When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next   36    . It was one of those wild-looking youngsters,   37    dark glasses and worn clothes, and    38   colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did    39    me was that he had started to eat my chocolate.

Naturally, I was annoyed. However, to avoid    40    —and really I was rather   41   

about him, I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee, and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me   42    , then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could   43     believe it. Still I didn’t dare to   44   an argument. When he took a    45    piece, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, “Well, I shall have the last piece”. And I got it.

The boy    46    me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out,” This   47    is crazy.” Everyone stared. That was embarrassing(令人難堪的)enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to   48   . My face went red—as red as his hair—when I    49    I’d made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate that he had been taking. There was mine, unopened, just    50    my newspaper.

       閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

 “It’s my own fault.” Carl Fenter pulled his jacket closer against the cold morning wind.“The rest of the family is home, where it’s warm.”

Just another one of his brilliant ideas—a big tamale (玉米粉蒸肉) feast after tonight’s Christmas Eve service at church—and look where it landed him: waiting in a line of 50 people.

As Carl knew, every tamale shop in the city had sold out their tamales the day before Christmas, though he’d been driving all over El Paso that morning.Determined to bring home the tamales, Carl tried one last shop out in Canutillo.

When he arrived, a fresh batch (一批) would be ready off the steamer in 45 minutes.Taking his place at the end of the snaking line, he watched the woman in front of him remove her jacket to cover her shaking youngster.It wasn’t long before she, too, trembled in the chilly wind.Without hesitation, Carl took off his own jacket and offered it to the grateful mother.

They cheered when the line crept forward at last.Finally, Carl got inside the door and inched his way closer to the counter, the woman now first in line.“Sorry folks,” the clerk announced, “that’s the last of the tamales.” “No way!” Carl cried out.“But,” stressed the man, “we’ll have a final batch ready in, oh, about two hours.”

Defeated, Carl backed away, but the young mother grabbed his arm.“You’re leaving?” “I have to,” Carl glanced at his watch.“I promised to put up decorations at my church.” “I’ll get your order of tamales and bring them to your house.” Carl frowned.“I couldn’t ask you to do that.” “But it’s the least I can do.You lent me your coat.Just give me your address.” She and her little girl settled in for the long wait.

And at exactly noon on Christmas Eve, they delivered four dozen fragrant tamales—along with Carl’s brown jacket—to his home.

56.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

       A.When Carl arrived at the shop, no fresh tamale was for sale.

       B.Carl had to offer his jacket to the mother in front of him.

       C.Carl was unable to buy tamale by himself finally.

       D.Carl couldn’t wait because he had to go back to the church.

57.The mother offered to help Carl buy tamale mainly because ________.

       A.she felt sorry for her buying the last tamale

       B.she was very thankful to Carl for his kindness

       C.Carl asked her to buy tamale for him

       D.Carl promised his family to take tamale back home

58.Which is the correct order of the following events?

a.Carl went back to the church.

b.The mother delivered tamales to Carl’s home.

c.Carl waited in line for the tamales.

d.Carl offered his jacket to the mother.

e.The clerk told Carl there was no tamale left then.

       A.c, d, e, a, b         B.c, d, a, e, b      C.a(chǎn), d, e, c, b      D.c, d, e, b, a
