We got to the clean, lovely city of Yangzhou early in the morning. This is our first trip to China. All the different smells attract our attention to the local food. We are going to try something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is not expensive but very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to the Great Wall in the north.  
Sunday, April 27th
We visited the famous Slender West Lake (瘦西湖) which was crowded with visitors from all over the world, and bought a lot of toys for our friends outside the gate of the park. Everything is so colourful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will do the famous foot massage (按摩) and then leave for the Great Wall. We will take the night train north, stay in Beijing for two days, and then catch a bus to the Great Wall.
Wednesday, April 30th
Our trip to the Great Wall was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. People in the village love the quiet life. They are the kindest people I had ever met. They always smile and say “Hello”. Ralph and I can speak only a few words in Chinese, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness.

5.What is the best title for the passage?

I took my 7-year-old daughter to a restaurant by the beach for lunch. When we arrived, I saw JoJo, a rich man in the hotel business. We sat down to chat in an open-air cafe. Suddenly, our conversation was interrupted(打断） by a stranger, who politely asked to speak to me alone.

　 We stood a bit away from my table. Usually, people who asked to talk to mp told me their

opinions on the shows I hosted. But he was different. He said, “I'm James, the father of a 7-year-old girl who's very sick. Doctors have said that if she is treated in the UK, she will probably become better. I don't have much money. Can you please help me?"

I looked into the man's eyes, which were filled with tears. Then I went to sir back at the table. JoJo asked, "What's wrong? Your face changed." I told him why.

I thought of James and his daughter all the weekend. I even thought of doing a special TV show to collect money for the sick girl. On Monday morning, I was at the office when JoJo walked in, which was surprising because JoJo was so busy. I never thought he would have time to come and see me at the studios.

With a check book in hand, he said, "Please call James and tell him I'll pay for his sick daughter's treatment. I've been married for 35 years, but I'm not lucky enough to have a child. I love children and want to help this child." I called James.

The daughter is living a normal life now and JoJo visits her sometimes. I'm so happy that there're so many good people in this world.

　 A. ask the writer to introduce him to JoJo 　B. ask the writer for help to save his daughter

31. We can learn from the fourth paragraph that the writer _______.

　 A. didn't try to help the sad father　　　　　

B. was usually very busy with his work

　 C. didn't expect JoJo would come for the sick girl

D. was sure he would find a way to help the girl
