         Tom Brennan was working in a Philadelphia office building when he noticed a black bag. The bag contained a book.

         This chance discovery ended a 12day search by the Library Company of Philadelphia for a historical treasure -- a 120-page -diary kept 190 years ago by Deborah Logan, “a woman who knew everybody in her day,” James Green, the librarian told the magazine America Libraries.

         Most of the diary is a record of big events in Philadelphia. It also includes a description of British soldiers burning Washington D.C. in the war of 1812. She describes President James Madison on horseback as “perfectly shaking with fear” during the troubled days. George Washington, she writes, mistook her for the wife of a French man, and praised her excellent English.

           The adventure of the lost book began September 4 when Cory Luxmoore arrived from England to deliver the diary to his ancestor (祖先) to the Library Company, which he and his wife considered to be the best home for the diary.

          Green told American Libraries he had the diary in his possession “about five minutes” when Luxmoore took it back because he had promised to show it to one other person. On returning to his hotel after showing the precious book to Green, Luxmoor was shocked to realise that he had left it in the taxi.

           Without any delay, Green began calling every taxi company in the city, with no luck. “I've felt sick since then,” Luxmoore told reporters.

            According to Green, no one has yet learned how the diary came to the office building. Tom Brennan received a reward (奖励) of $1 000, Philadelphia gained another treasure for its history, and Luxmoore told reporters, “It's wonderful news. I'm on high.”

    51. This article mainly tells about the story of _______.

    A. a lost diary                                           B. Deborah Longan

    C. Cory Luxmoore                                    D. the Library Company

    52. From the text, we learn that the diary is now owned by _______.

    A. Tom Brennan                                              B. an unknown person

    C. a Philadelphia magazine                        D. the Library Company of Philadelphia

    53. Philadelphia is thought to be the best home for the diary because _______.

    A. it was written in Philadelphia                 B. it tells stories about Philadelphia

    C. people in the city are interested in old things

    D. the British and the Americans once fought in Philadelphia

    54. Which of the following shows the right order of what happened to the diary?

     a -- Tom Brennan found the book in an office building.

     b -- The book was shown to James Green.

     c -- Cory Luxmoore arrived from England.

     d -- The book was left behind in a taxi.

    A. a, b, c, d         B. c, b, d, a                  C. a, c, d, b                         D. c, a, b, d

    55. What did Cory Luxmoore mean when he said “I'm on high”?

    A. I'm rich                    B. I'm famous                     C. I'm excited                    D. I'm lucky

    I chose to study in Madrid because I had a desire to learn Spanish. My first impressions of Madrid were incredible. It was before the New Year that I arrived in Madrid for the first time. While traveling to my Spanish friend’s house in a taxi, I appreciated the buildings along the road which were different from those of my own country.

    There are an incredible number of restaurants and bars from all over the world. If you are really into sightseeing, I hope you have rechargeable batteries for your digital camera, because one week really isn’t enough time to see everything here including a number of art, science, and historical museums as well as parks, buildings, and amazing landscapes.

    What I liked best about life in Madrid was the fact that if you were frustrated with schoolwork and wanted to have some fun, you can easily go out. The nightlife never seems to stop and the people are all very friendly. You can meet people and practice Spanish while having fun at the same time.

    What I liked least was the fact that many people smoked in the streets. Also, coming from the US, I was used to having a big breakfast every morning, but while living with an actual Spanish family, I wasn’t really satisfied with the food in the morning.

    I think I have definitely become more independent since I came back from Spain. Living in a big city like Madrid I found that it is necessary to plan ahead and to make a schedule for future. There is so much to see, not just in the Spanish World, but in the European World as well.

    56. What’s the purpose of the text?

    A. To attract people to tour around Madrid.

    B. To show how to enjoy Spanish culture.

     To give advice on how to study Spanish.

    D. To describe the author’s life in Madrid.

    57. Why did the author suggest taking rechargeable batteries?

    A. It’s difficult to deal with the used batteries.

    B. It’s not convenient to recharge batteries.

     There are few stores that sell ordinary batteries.

    D. You will find lots of places worth taking pictures of.

    58. Which of the following in Madrid didn’t please the author?

    A. Parks and buildings.            B. Restaurants and bars.

     Nightlife.                     D. Breakfast.
