School was over and I was both mentally and physically tired. I sat at the very front of the bus because of my   16 to get home. Sitting at the front makes you  17 out like a shiny coin in a pile of dull pennies.
Janie, the driver, tries to break the  18 atmosphere by striking the match of   194 .
I try to mind my manners and   20 listen, but usually I am too busy thinking about my day. On this day,   21 , her conversation was worth listening to.
“My father's sick,” she said to no one in  22 . I could see the anxiety and fear in her eyes. With a sudden change of attitude and interest, I asked,“What's wrong with him?"
With her eyes wet and her voice tight from  23 the tears, she responded,“Heart trouble.”Her eyes lowered as she  24 . “I've already lost my mum, so I don't think I can stand losing him.”
I couldn't respond. I was  25 . My heart ached for her. I sat on the old, smelly seat thinking of the great  26 my own mother was thrown into when her father died. I saw how hard it was,   27 still is, for her. I wouldn't like anyone to go  28 that.
Suddenly I realized Janie wasn't only a bus driver. That was  29 her job. She had a whole world of family and concerns too. I had never thought of her as  30 but a driver.
I suddenly felt very  31 . I realized I had only thought of people as  32 as what their purposes were in my life. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as  33 .
For all I know, I'm just another person in  34 else's world, and may not even be important. I  35 not have been so selfish and self-centered. Everyone has places to go, people to see and appointments (约会) to keep. Understanding people is an art.

America is grooving older. Fify years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United Satates were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways - education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying of America has made us a very different society-one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior(行为) is suitable at various ages.

A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health. There’s no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time tells ads it used to be. It doesn’t surprise us to hear of a 29 -year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing. Many people say, “I’m much younger than my mother or my father was at my age.” No one says “act your Age” anymore. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.

72. It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America _____.

A. has made people feel younger

B. has changed people’s social position

C. has changed people’s understanding of age

D. has slowed down the country’s social development

73. The underlined word “one” refers to_______ .

A. a society  B.America  C.a place  D. population

74. “Act your age” means people should ____ .

A. be active when they are old

B. do the right thing at the right age

C. show respect for their parents young or old

D. take more physical exercise suitable to their age

75. If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm the writer of the text would most probably consider it _________.

A. normal           B. wonderful        C. unbelievable       D. unreasonable

Time is very important in our lives. It organizes our everyday moments. However, time never had any importance in my life until I received a watch from my father.

I received this gift on a cloudy day. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 a.m. to meet my uncle and take him to my father’s house. However, I was late because I was staying with my friends. Later on that day, around 11:00 a.m., I remembered my uncle, but I was very late for him. He had left the airport and taken a taxi to my father’s house.

I got to my father’s house at 2:00 p.m. and felt ashamed of myself at that moment. After I said “hello” to my angry father and tired uncle, my father asked me to sit next to him and gave me this watch. Then he said, “Essa, did you have fun with your friends today?”

“Yes, Dad, and I’m sorry about not meeting my uncle at the airport.”

“I hope today you learned something important, and this watch will be a reminder (提醒物) for you.” He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my life.

I learned a very important lesson from my father: To respect time and never be late to do something. This watch is important to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson that I learned from it.
