ALast year, I met a little boy to whom my heart went out. He would talk to me every single day, and always seemed to have a smile on his face. His problem was that he stuttered (口吃) extremely badly when he tried to talk. It was really hard to understand what he was saying, although he loved to tell big tales!One morning, I was talking to the teachers who ran the school store. The boy stopped by and said hello to all of us. Afterwards they told me that the boy would stop every day to ask if they would be there the next day. But of course, he never had money to buy anything.I decided that I would get him a little something just as a surprise. So I picked out a pencil, a rubber, and a small notebook for just $1.00. I cannot describe the look on his face when I gave him the three little things. Then,without a stutter, he loudly said, "Thank you so much!" and just kept repeating, "Thank you! Thank you!" He gave me a big hug before going off to class.I was touched to see someone appreciate something that much. As he walked off, he was showing his new stuff to other kids walking to class. I have to say that I have never spent a dollar that would mean so much to me.56. Why did the boy never buy anything from the store?A. Because he couldn’t make himself understood.B. Because the teachers were unwilling to sell him anything.C. Because he couldn’t afford anything.D. Because he could never decide what to buy.57. What do we learn from the third paragraph?A. Actually the boy had no stutter at all.B. The boy was too excited to stutter at the moment.C. What the author had bought helped the boy speak normally.D. The author wanted to find out whether the boy really had a stutter.58. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. A Stuttering BoyB. Kindness Can Do WondersC. One Dollar Can Buy AnythingD. The Best Dollar I Have SpentBIn addition to writing articles and books, Mark Twain delighted the audience with his public lectures about the faraway places he visited on his travels. People were eager to learn about his trips to places like the Sandwich Islands (now Hawaii), Egypt and the Holy Land. Twain often used the fees he earned from his lectures to pay for more adventures. His well-attended performances also served to bring attention to his published work. At that time, the public lecture was a very popular form of entertainment, and audiences’expectations ran high, but Twain never failed to amuse them.Twain also wrote on amusing subjects. In 1873, he released a book called The Gilded Age. The book was a satire (讽刺) of the very wealthy of the time. A satire is a work that makes fun of bad human behavior, such as wasteful spending. Twain made people laugh at the excesses (无节制) of the rich.In 1889, Twain took on other members of the Establishment. He wrote A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, about a boy who travels back to the time of King Arthur. Twain made fun of those who were given advantages not because they had earned them but because of their family connections. If you have never read any of Mark Twain’s works, try reading A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, or The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. They will make you laugh.59. What do we learn about Mark Twain from the passage?A. He liked showing off by talking about his travels abroad.B. He thought the rich should show mercy to the poor.C. His lectures were very popular.D. He supported those who succeeded with the help of others.60.

They form a natural border between Zimbabwe (津巴布韦) and Zambia (赞比亚).The falls are named after Queen Victoria by Livingstone. They were known to the native people in the 18th century as: "the smoke that thunders". The waterfall is formed as the two-kilometer-wide Zambezi River spills (溅) over the edge of its giant stone riverbed and falls into the gorge (山谷) below. At their highest point, the Victoria Falls drop a distance of 108m, almost twice as far as the Niagara Falls. As much as 546 million cubic meters of water per minute falls over the edge from that height.Viewing the falls from the Zambian side means that visitors can follow a path that goes right up to the falls. The falls can also be viewed from the Boiling Pot, right in the depths of the gorge at the bottom of the falls. The 111-meter-high Victoria Falls Bridge, a railway crossing, is now a popular place for Bungee jumping. It can be crossed on foot for excellent views of the falls and the winding blue-green waters of the Zambezi River. It is also possible to see the falls from a plane.The area around the falls is a major game-viewing place. The best time to view the Victoria Falls is between December and July, when the water level is the highest.

The Etruscans raised a great army and marched toward Rome. At that time, Rome was just a small town, and the Romans did not have enough fighting men to protect their people.One morning, thousands of Etruscan horsemen and footmen were seen marching straight toward the wooden bridge over the Tiber River.

At the same time, he took two soldiers with him to the far side of it. There, the three brave menkept the enemy from taking the bridge.The soldiers tried to destroy the bridge as quickly as they could, and soon it was trembling, and ready to fall. Some of them ran across to call the three men back.Horatius yelled at the two others to cross first. At that moment the bridge fell with a great crash. Horatius fought the Etruscans by himself, and a dart (标枪) entered his left eye. In great pain, he turned and jumped into the river.Horatius sank into the deep water but soon emerged, halfway across the river. He was greeted with shouts of joy, for he had saved the town.
