I once heard someone say, “We don’t remember days; we remember moments.” However, in today’s busy life we often forget to enjoy small pleasures while we make big plans.

In the race to be better or best, we sometimes lose sight of “just being”. And just being and enjoying a beautiful moment can provide some of life’s greatest pleasures. A fire on a cold winter night, a good book, an impressive sunset, a great meal, or a timeless moment with your child or a friend ．．． these moments, if we stop long enough to enjoy, are the essence (本质) of life.

I love to fish, especially for large-mouth bass (鲈鱼). About three years ago I was watching television late at night and got this crazy idea to go fishing in the lake behind my house. Of course, my wife thought I was nuts. It was almost midnight! I told her I was fine and took off.

I walked out to a warm summer breeze and looked up at the starry sky and breathtaking full moon. I allowed my senses to soak (浸泡) in every second — the sweet smell of flowers, the sound of every cricket (蟋蟀), the moon’s reflection dancing off the water — it was a perfect night.

After walking across a small field, I took out a flashlight, and selected a lure (饵). On my first cast I got a bass weighing over five pounds, one of the largest I had ever caught. I gently put it back into the water and continued my midnight adventure. During the next two hours I caught seventeen bass, all between two and five pounds. Although I’ve fished for almost fifty years, no fishing memory can top that night.

But that night provided far more than a fishing memory. It was a life memory. It provided me a picture of what life could be like if I just slowed down enough to enjoy the moments. On my way back to the house, as I walked through the tall grass, I took one last look at the sky and stopped to say, “Thank you, God, for giving me this night.”

The purpose of the passage is to ______.

A. suggest people should make big plans

B. tell people to do what they like

C. advise people to enjoy beautiful moments

D. encourage people to follow their dreams

What does the underlined word “nuts” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Determined. B. Ill. C. Tired. D. Crazy.

The fourth paragraph is mainly about ______.

A. the description of the night

B. the author’s fishing experience

C. the author’s attitude towards life

D. what the author did that night

We can learn from the passage that night the author ______.

A. caught fewer fish than before

B. enjoyed real small pleasures

C. went to bed around 1:00 am

D. went fishing with his wife

This was an unforgettable and wonderful experience．It happened about three years ago and it has had a 36 effect on me．I would like to show respect here for the two men I do not know 37 but whose actions gave a new 38 to the words — kind and generous.
I was walking down a busy street on a cold, windy day in early 39 , A homeless man, probably about 60 and without wearing any shoes , was 40 for change on a street corner.
A BMW car 41 on the other side of the street and an executive（主管）who was perfectly dressed stepped out of the car．He was probably about 42 years old．He was wearing a blue business suit with a deep red silk tie．He walked 43 across the street and over to the homeless man．Without saying anything, he first gave him a lot of 44 and then he sat down and took off his leather gloves（手套）, beautiful black leather shoes and his black dress socks．Then he   45 them to the homeless man．The homeless man took them and stared with a/an 46 mouth.
As he drove off, I couldn’t   47 thinking that it was probably the first time he had 48 the pedal（踏板）of that top-brand BMW car with a   49  foot! I stood there and the looks of   50 appeared on my face and the homeless man’s.
Two men of about the same age 51 very different lives had met and the one who was 52 in materials had offered 53 than his shoes．He had left this BMW car and   54 down from his high position．He lifted up the other man when he offered respect,   55 and real generosity.

For thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.
As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “The Old Trip to Jerusalem”, which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.
However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub’s landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.
That’s how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business. People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.
This decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 1l pm. Previously, with 1l pm as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”, and it causes long-term health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.
In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Men's Clubs”, meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.
