I was feeling a little 52 as I was carrying our shopping, and decided to throw away something. So I started to walk towards a garbage can when I noticed a poor man walking out of the restaurant in front of us. He 53 over to another nearby garbage can and started looking through it. I suddenly felt very guilty because I was about to throw away a new drink just because it was 54 . I walked up to him and handed the drink and some snacks over to him. The man looked up 55 and took what I gave him. A huge smile 56 across his face and this caused me to feel indescribably satisfied. I felt I couldn’t be happier 57 myself, but then he said, “Wow, this is my son’s lucky day! With that, he thanked me happily and started off on his bike, I 58 heard him whistling a song as he rode away. I got a warm 59 inside. I now understand what is meant by the saying “giving is getting . Although it only 60 a little action and a few words, I gained and learned more in those two minutes than I did in the rest of the month. Everyone in the world needs help, everyone can 61 help and everyone will be helped by 62 kindness. The image of that man’s happiness caused by my small gift appears in my mind every 63 I have the chance to do something nice. This is the 64 of charity. 50.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A If you asked me, over a year ago, to choose between the neon lights and street lights of Chengdu, I would have chosen the colourful ones without hesitation. But my experiences during the time of the severe earthquake have given me a different perspective. In fear of the after shocks people would be constantly moving about and they stayed out of doors during the nights. When night fell and rain set in, we could feel cold, tired and helpless. But I remember one night, which changed my whole attitude to the lights of Chengdu. All of a sudden, there was a beam of yellow, then another, and another. Before we knew it, there were lights on everywhere. The sea of light had the effect of making us feel overwhelmingly secure. I realized that the lights, which we had taken for granted before, were protecting the whole city. Then there were the people who came to our rescue, who made every effort to protect and save lives. I saw local taxi drivers on the road all night long transporting injured people to the hospitals. I saw volunteers from other parts of China hurrying with living essentials to the worst-hit areas- At that moment, Chengdu became a place where the word `love’ was being spelt in capital letters by caring people from every corner of the planet. Reconstruction is still in progress, but I’ve already come to understand that the quality of life in Chengdu comes not from the number of its modern buildings- but from the hope, the faith, the optimism, and the determination of the people- 65. What does the underlined word mean? A. determination B. evaluation C. destination D. viewpoint 66. What did the writer think of the street lights before the earthquake? A. The writer thought the street lights were very important to the people. B. The writer believed people couldn’t do without street lights. C. The writer considered the street lights as something natural. D. The writer had no idea about the street lights. 67. What’s the best title for this passage? A. Earthquake B. Lights in Rain C. Hope, the Lights D. Love of People 查看更多
