Sometimes you make a wish, but when it comes. you decide you don’t want it. That’s what happened with Micky’s “birthday wish”.

Our family tradition is that you make a wish before you blow out the birthday candle. After he blew out the candle. Micky told us that his wish was to win a prize in the Pine Ridge-match. We quickly told Micky, “If you tell people your wish. your wish won’t come true.” So we lit the candle again, and he made another wish.

Micky and Paul were both supposed to start playing at 5:30.

When Micky reported to the check-in table, the game organizers told him his opponent (对手) had phoned and said he was coming late. The officials told Micky he could choose not to play and be declared the victor of the first round of competition.

But Micky said he didn’t want to win by not playing. He wanted the experience of playing a great player.

Finally, the beast showed up. He was tall, smiling and relaxed. His serve (发球) was like lightning.

Micky had some good returns, but he lost quickly, 6-1, 6-0.

We congratulated Micky on having some good returns and a few great serves. And we noted that he had won the first game.

“I didn’t win that game,” Micky said. “I think he just gave it to me at the beginning because he arrived late.”

“It was a birthday present.” I said, smiling.

“No, I refused my birthday present,” Micky said. In his eyes, his “birthday present” had been the chance to win by his opponent’s being late.

Micky ended up winning the “consolation prize(鼓励奖)” a small prize that we didn’t know existed until Micky earned it by being undefeated in the consolation bracket (档次).

We’ll’ never know what Micky’s second wish was - the wish he didn’t share with us.

It seems to me that no matter how many birthdays you celebrate, as long as you enjoy challenges, you will never be “old”.

56. What kind of person is Micky?

A. A person who always gives up. B. A person who is afraid of challenges.

C. One who enjoys challenges. D. One who is selfish.

57. Why did Micky lose the match?

A. Because he gave up a good chance. B. Because he let the others know his birthday wish.

C. Because he was proud of himself. D. Because his opponent played much better than him

58. The prize Micky won was ______.

A. one he had expected B. not a well-known one

C. a famous one D. one he thought meaningless

59. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.

A. enjoying challenges is helpful for one to keep “young”

B. one will become old as he celebrates his birthdays

C. one will stay young by continuously celebrating his birthdays

D. challenges can make one never get old

In some parts of the United States, farming is easy. But farming has always been difficult in the northeastern corner of the country, which is called New England.

New England has many trees and thin, rocky soil. Anyone who has wanted to start a new farm there has had to work very hard. The first job has been cutting down trees. The next job has been digging stumps (树桩) of the trees out of the soil. Then the farmer has had the difficult job of removing stones from his land.

The work of removing stones never really ends, because every winter more stones appear. They come up through the thin soil from the rocks below. Farmers have to keep removing stones from the fields. Even today, farms which have been worked on for 200 years keep producing more stones.

That is why stone walls are used instead of fences around New England fields. The stone walls are not high: A man can easily climb over them. But they keep the farmer’s cows from joining his neighbour’s cows.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates has recovered his spot at the top of the US money heap, taking the place of Investor Warren Buffett as America's richest person, Forbes magazine's latest list reveals.

With 57 billion dollars net worth Gates again leads the list of 400 richest individuals in the world’s wealthiest country. He displaced Buffett who briefly held the position this year but who has seen his Berkshire Hathaway investment group's shares slip 15 percent since February and is now worth 50 billion.

According to Forbes, whose list was published late Wednesday, the golden 400 have 1.3 billion dollars net worth or more. However, their combined net worth rose only 30 billion dollars, or two percent, to 1.57 trillion dollars.

Forbes said that rising oil and dizzy art prices fuelled the entry of 31 new members into the ultra -rich club and the return of eight previous members.

A notable arrival was Mark Zuckerberg, 24, founder of the social networking site Facebook (脸谱网). Forbes estimates his worth at 1.5 billion dollars.

Meanwhile, turmoil (动荡) on the stock and housing markets saw 33 others drop off the list, including former head of the troubled insurance giant AIG, Maurice Greenberg, and a former head of the online auction site eBay, Margaret Whitman.

Biggest gainers were led by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg who took eighth place with 20 billion dollars worth after a transaction (交易) put a new value on his Bloomberg media and financial data network.

The biggest loser was casino (赌场，娱乐场所) tycoon Sheldon Adelson, whose fortune fell 13 billion dollars over 12 months -- the equivalent to 1.5 million dollars an hour -- although he still has 15 billion dollars and occupies 15th place.

About two thirds of the list are self-made billionaires and just over 10 percent are women, led by television star Oprah Winfrey whose fortune rose 200 million dollars to 2.7 billion dollars.

68. According to Forbes, Warren Buffet is worth ________.

A. 57 billion dollars B. 50 billion dollars

C. 1.5 billion dollars D.20 billion dollars

69. 31 new members entered the ultra-rich club as a result of ________.

A. tell the readers that television stars make money easily

B. prove that a millionaire can become a billionaire

C women can also be billionaires

D. tell the readers that most of the billionaires are self-made
