     Conor Grennan was unwilling to be a volunteer (志愿者). The 29-year-old American was not sure if he
had the skills or a strong feeling for it. However, he went to work at an orphanage (孤儿院) in Nepal. His first
thought was to make people impressed.

     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.

B. four times
C. three times
D. twice
3. The underlined word "delighted" means ______.
A. sure

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.

     An American named Crum invented potato chips in 1853, although that was not his intention (意图). He
was a chef (厨师长) at a beautiful restaurant in Saratoga Springs, New York. A regular dish on the menu
was fried (油炸的) potatoes, which was an ides that had started in France. At that time, French fried potatoes
were cut into thick slices (片).
     One day, a dinner guest at the restaurant sent back his fried potatoes to the chef because he did not like
them so thick. So Mr Crum cut the potatoes a little thinner and fried them. The guest did not like those either.
That made Mr Crum angry, so he thought he would just show the man. He sliced the potatoes paper-thin and
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
装) and sold in stores.
