2.When milk arrived on the doorstep
     When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s,we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.As a 5-year-old boy,I couldn't take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
    Of course,he delivered more than milk.There was cheese,eggs and so on.If we needed to change our order,my mother would pen a note-"Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery"-and place it in the box along with the empty bottles.And then,the buttermilk would magically appear.
     All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen.Mr.Basille even had a key to out house,for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors,so that the milk wouldn't freeze.And I remember Mr.Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table,having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
     There is sadly no home milk delivery today.Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk,thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete.Besides,milk is for sale everywhere,and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
      Recently,an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories.I took it home and planted it on the back porch (门廊).Every so often my son's friends will ask what it is.So I start telling stories of my boyhood,and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.

56.Mr Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changerC.
A.to show his magical power   B.to pay for the delivery
C.to satisfy his curiosity    D.to please his mother.
57.What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy's house?D
A.He wanted to have tea there
B.He was a respectable person
C.He was treated as a family member
D.He was fully trusted by the family
58.Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?B
A.Nobody wants to be a milkman now
B.It has been driven out of the market
C.Its service is getting poor
D.It is forbidden by law
59.Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A
A.He missed the good old days
B.He wanted to tell interesting stories
C.He missed it for his milk bottles
D.He planted flowers in it.

A U-shaped object,resembling a silvery dome (穹顶), is now under inspection by Russian experts, after being secretly removed under cover of night from the possession of villagers who found it.

After discovering it on Sunday, locals from the village of Otradnesnky had managed to drag the “UFO fragment” from the thick forest where it had fallen. They loaded it onto a truck and took it through the snow to their village, where local inspectors then examined it before reporting Moscow authorities.

In an official statement, Sergey Bobrov, who found the object, agreed to keep it safe. But following their secret removal of the 200-kilogram metal fragment (碎片), police have it under close guard on orders from unnamed authorities.

The object has not had its origin confirmed yet. However, it does not come from a rocket or missile or be in any way associated with earth space technology, it has been announced. “The object found is not related to space technology. A final conclusion can be made after a detailed study of the object by experts,” said Roscosmos, the Russian space agency. Experts have also examined the object to determine whether it is dangerous. “We measured the radiation level near and inside the object. We found no radiation here,” said Yuri Bornyakov, who heads the rescue service department of the Kuybyshevsky district in the Novosibirsk region. Part of the fragment is made of ultra-strong titanium (钛), said Valery Vasiliev, the head of the Kuybyshevsky Department for Civil Defence and Emergency Situations.

A guess that it had come from a failed Kazakhstan rocket or satellite launch was also denied. “You can see inside it. All is open. It’s empty. No danger here. We were asked to take and store it. We brought it here. And now we are going to wait until they come to take it if they need it," said local police spokesman Sergei Sulein.

2.你叫Jenny,你的网友Peter(高一学生)即将面临期末考试,近日,他就是否要请家教来帮他复习迎考向你求教,请给Peter回复一封电子邮件,邮件必须包括以下内容:
结合你自身的学习经历就是否请家教表达你的观点及理由;
就复习迎考给出2条主要建议.
Hearing that you're wondering whether you should invite a tutor to help you prepare for the coming final examination,I'm shocked and I'll give you an exact'No'.
A tutor costs high,usually 150 yuan or more per hour,which you may not be able to afford.Besides,having studied that detailed information of tutor classes from my classmates,I find that most of the information is similar to that of school's,which is even with little or no extended materials,so it's absolutely no use if you listen to the teachers with full attention in the school and review what is on your notebook carefully after class.What's more,a tutor may make you depend fully onhim and lose your self-motivation on study,which is exactly the truth of study.Without it,you may never learn better.And that's why I say there's no need for you to invite a home tutor.
When it comes to preparing for the exam,I'd like to give you two suggestions.First,review the points which you're poor at.You will achieve twice the result with half the effort if reviewing the notes accompanied with several particular exercises.Second,check all the notes and make sure that you've captured all the details.
Try hard and I believe you can achieve a good score in the exam..
