    　　　 Bobby was sitting out in his back yard in the snow. The thin sneakers he wore had a few holes in them. Try as he might, he could not come up with an idea for his mother’s Christmas gift.

    　　　 Ever since his father had passed away three years ago, his mother worked nights at the hospital, but the small wage could only be stretched so far.

    　　　 What the family lacked in money and material things, they more than made up for in love and family unity. They ran the household in their mother’s absence. All three of his sisters had already made beautiful gifts for their mother.

    　　　 It was Christmas Eve already, and he had nothing. Bobby started to walk down to the street. He walked from shop to shop. Everything seemed so beautiful and so out of reach. It was starting to get dark, then suddenly his eyes caught a shiny dime. Never has anyone felt so wealthy as Bobby did at that moment.

    　　　 He went inside a flower shop. When the owner asked if he could help him, Bobby presented the dime and asked if he could buy one flower. The shop owner looked at Bobby, then said, “You just wait here and I’ll see what I can do for you.”

    　　　 The shop owner returned holding red roses all tied together with a big silver bow. Bobby’s heart sank as the owner placed them gently into a long white box. “That will be ten cents, young man,” said the shop owner, reaching out his hand for the dime. Slowly, Bobby moved his hand to give the man his dime.

    　　　 Then the shopkeeper’s wife appeared. “Where are the roses you were fixing?”

    　　　 The shop owner replied, “A strange thing happened to me this morning. I thought I heard a voice telling me to set aside a dozen of my best roses for a special gift. I wasn’t sure at the time whether I had lost my mind or what, but I set them aside anyway. When I saw that little boy tonight, I knew who that voice was.”

    56. According to the first three paragraphs we know that _____.

    　　　 A. Bobby’s sisters didn’t help Bobby to buy a gift

    　　　 B. Bobby had known what gift he’d give to his mother

    　　　 C. the children in the family all loved their mother

    　　　 D. Bobby’s family was rich before his father died

    57. Why did Bobby walk along the street?

    　　　 A. Because he didn’t know what to do.

    　　　 B. Because he wanted to try his luck there.

    　　　 C. Because he wanted to get some money.

    　　　 D. Because he hoped to see what he could get.

    58. What could he buy with a dime then?

    　　　 A. A flower. B. Nothing. C. A piece of cake. D. Many flowers.

    59. Bobby slowly gave the dime to the shop owner because _______.

    　　　 A. he did not want any rose flowers　　　　　

    B. the flowers weren’t worth a dime

    　　　 C. the shop owner would cheat him　　　　　

    D. he hardly believed what had happened

    60. From the last two paragraphs we can infer that the shop owner ______.

    　　　 A. was shocked by the voice he heard　　　　

    B. was always ready to help others

    　　　 C. didn’t know how to run a business　　　　

    D. was good at making up stories

    　　No one else knew about the extra club in Zach Nash's golf bag．It belonged to a friend, and Zach forgot it was there as he played his way to victory in a junior tournament(锦标赛)last summer in Wisconsin, US．

    　　The 14-year-old accepted his medal, celebrated with his grandparents who had come from a long way to watch．But when he stopped by his country club to share the news, a professional player noticed something wrong．“Count your clubs,” he told the teenager．

    　　Fifteen－one more than allowed．Zach's eyes filled with tears．

    　　If Zach had just won a basketball championship or a soccer game and someone had discovered a violation after the win, it would not have mattered．It is nothing unusual for a soccer player to dive to the turf to draw fouls(假摔以使对方犯规)．

    　　Golf is different．In a win-at-all-costs world, the game holds itself to a higher standard．Golf isn't a game where referees watch closely．In golf tournaments, dozens of competitors are spread across acres of land, so officials cannot hope to see each shot．Competitors call penalties(处罚)on themselves．

    　　“It was a sport for gentlemen, and gentlemen did not care about winning．They care about doing the right thing,” said Robert Simon, a golf coach at Hamilton College in New York．

    　　Honesty became a medal of honor．When one of the game's early stars, Bobby Jones, was praised for calling a penalty on himself at the 1925 US Open, he replied：“You might as well praise a man for not robbing a bank．”

    　　So even the error had no effect on Zach's final score－he has never used the extra club, the teenager packed up his medal and dropped it in the mail．“But this is golf, and rules are rules．I just knew what I had to do,” he said．

    　　Then came another tournament．Before teeing off(开球), Zach counted his clubs－four times．
