阅读理解。     I felt very sad because I was not able to get the ticket to the film Hero last Friday. I learned from the
newspaper that tickets could be bought at the cinema box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 a.m.
and 4:00 p. m. Since I work from 9:00 a. m. to 5:30 p. m., the only time I could go to the cinema was during
my 45 minutes" lunchtime. It is a pity that the cinema is on the other side of the town and the bus service
between my company and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip
in 45 minutes.
     Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for 15 minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come round
the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip, so I had to go back. The same thing happened on
Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday my luck changed. I got on a bus right away and arrived at
the cinema in twenty minutes. But when I got there, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard
one man said he had been waiting in line for over an hour. I found I would not have enough time to wait in line.
I caught the next bus and went back across the town.
     By Friday I understood my only hope was to make the trip by car. It was expensive, but I felt it would be
worth it to see the film. The trip by car only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I reached
the cinema, I was delighted to see that nobody was waiting in line. But I quickly found out that it was because
they had already sold out all the tickets. 1. It seems that the writer of the story works ______. A. in a small town
B. in Richland Hills
C. on a farm near the town
D. at a bus service Center 2. He tried to go to the cinema to buy a ticket but really got there ______. A. five times
B. four times
C. three times
D. twice 3. The underlined word "delighted" means ______. A. sure
B. sorry
C. surprised
D. pleased 4. Which of the following is true according to the story? A. The writer was too busy to have time for a rest during the day.
B. The buses running between his office and Richland Hills were always on time on Thursday.
C. He could buy the tickets neither before nor after work hours.
D. It always took him about twenty minutes to get to the cinema by bus. 5. What"s the title of the story? A. How to Get a Ticket
B. Tickets Sold out
C. A Wonderful Film
D. The Way to the Cinema

fried them, thinking that the man would say nothing about it. However, to his surprise, the man loved the thin
potatoes very much. Other guests tried them and liked them. So, Mr Crum"s potato chips were added to the
menu. They were called Saratoga Chips.
     Finally, Mr Crum opened his own restaurant to sell his famous chips. Now potato chips are packaged (包

     Many years ago, there was an old man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge
