"Would your friend's name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?"I asked finally.He (54)Band said,"Yes.Would your brother's name happen to be Dr Rey Hunter?"It was my(55)D to laugh."Yes,"I replied.

3.It was a warm March evening,and I'd just taken a seat on the bus that would take me home.It was nearly 6:00PM,but the bus was not yet full and the driver gave no(36)C that he intended to start the bus.
A middle-aged woman took a seat opposite me.She was crying.Not speaking to anyone in particular,she (37)Anarrated her story.
She had come to the city to visit her daughter.On the way to the terminal,a thief had (38)Bone of her bags.It had contained half of the money she'd brought with her.The other half was hidden under her blouse,so she (39)D still had some money left.The bus conductor,driver,and other passengers listened to her tale.
At this time,an old man(40)Agot on the bus.He sat in the seat directly in front of the woman.
After a few minutes,all seats were (41)D.The driver got behind the wheel and started the engine.The bus conductor collected tickets and began asking us where we were(42)C.When he came to the old man's seat,he became (43)B and asked the old man whether he had any money.The old man(44)Cthat he did not.He explained that he (45)Call his money this morning when he'd accidentally got on the wrong bus and now he was trying to go home.
Upon hearing this,the bus conductor (46)Bthe old man to get off the bus.The old man was almost in tears as he begged the bus conductor to let him take that bus (47)A he could get home before dark.The bus driver approached the old man,and repeated the conductor's (48)Bto get off the bus.
"Stop troubling him!Can't you see he's only trying to get home?"she interfered."He doesn't have any money!"the driver shouted."Well,that's no (49)Cto throw him off the bus,"she insisted.
Then she said,"How much is his fare?"The bus conductor mumbled the amount."Fine,"said the woman.She (50)D inside her blouse,took out her (51)D money,and handed the fares to the bus conductor."Here's his fare and mine.Just stop giving him a hard time."
All eyes turned (52)Bthe woman,who,just minutes before,had been crying over the money she'd lost."It's only money,"she shrugged.
By the time the bus rolled out of the terminal,she had given the old man bread and a dollar.She rode the rest of the way home (53)Ba Mona Lisa smile of peace and grace,and the money she'd lost (54)Awas forgotten.
On the road of life,the politeness and smiles of (55)C can lighten our loads and lift our spirits.How much sweeter the journey when we make it a little smoother and richer for others!

The young man paused briefly to consider the words,bent to pick up a starfish and threw it as far as(15)A.Turning to the old man,he said,"I made a difference to that one."

20.You're rushing to work and a man ahead of you collapses on the sidewalk.Do you stop to help?In a study of by-standers,it was found that some people avert their gaze and keep on  walking rather than stop and get involved.
"There is a tendency to decide that no action is needed."says a psychologist."The first thoughts that pop into your mind often keep you from offering help.In order to take action,you have to work against them."Here are some common thoughts that might prevent you from helping.
●Why should I be the one?I'm probably not the most competent(有能力的) person in this crowd.You might think someone older or with more medical knowledge should offer assistance.
●What if he doesn't really need my help?The fear of embarrassment is powerful; no one wants to risk looking foolish in front of others.
●No one else looks concerned-this must not be a problem.We can follow the people around us,but most people tend to hold back their emotions in public.
"If you spot trouble and find yourself explaining inaction,force yourself to stop and evaluate the situation instead of walking on,"says the psychologist."Then retry to involve other people; you don't have to take on the entire responsibility of being helpful.Sometimes it's just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying,‘It looks like we should do something.'Or asking someone if an ambulance has been called and,if not,to call for one.Once you take action,most people will follow you."
56.Which is NOT the common thought that stops you from helping others?B
A.I'm not the very person capable of setting the problem.
B.It looks like we should do something.
C.It must not be a problem as no one else is concerned.
D.He doesn't really need my help.
57.According to a study of by-standers,what will some people do when a man ahead falls down on the sidewalk?C
A.They will call for help and then walk away.
B.They will stop and offer help.
C.They will turn away their eyes and go on walking.
D.They will laugh at him.
58.We learn from the last paragraph that if we spot trouble,C.
A.we should call the ambulance as soon as we can.
B.we should take on the whole responsibility and do something alone.
C.we should stop and evaluate the situation and try to make other people follow.
D.we should turn to other people and ask them to take on the responsibility
59.In order to offer others your timely help,you need toD.
A.ask others for help and call the police
B.get along well with the passers-by who spot the trouble
C.go directly to the police station
D.work against the first thoughts that prevent you offering help
60.The main purpose of the text is to tell readersA.

Jefferson never spoke to his honored (忠实的) guests about the fact.

21.The passage tells us that Jefferson was a President who learned to love the taste of tomatoesB.
A.when he was a little boy              B.while he was in Paris

D.None of the guests knew that their president would serve his honored guests poison apples.
