Miss Maynell and I grew to know each other through the mail. When World War II ended, I returned from Europe. We planned our first meeting at the Grand Central Station in New York.
At seven, I was in the station and waited for the girl whose heart I loved but whose face I’d never seen.
Suddenly a girl in a green suit was coming toward me. I stood up from the bench and started toward her, completely forgetting to notice that she was not wearing a rose.
“Going my way, sailor?” the girl murmured, walking away quickly. I made one step closer to her and then I saw Miss Maynell, who was well past 40, standing almost directly behind her with a red rose. I felt something even better than love. I didn’t hesitate and walked to her. “I’m John Blanchard, and you must be Miss Maynell,” I said, feeling shocked by the bitterness of disappointment. “I’m glad you could meet me. May I take you to dinner?”
The woman smiled. “I don’t know what this is about, son,” she answered. “But the young lady in the green suit begged me to wear this rose. And she said if you were to invited me to dinner, I should tell you that she is waiting for you in a big restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!”
54What did John Blanchard go to the station for?
A. To see the middle-aged woman
B. To wait for a girl from Europe.
C. To invite the woman with a rose to dinner.
D. To meet his lover as planned.
55.How could John Blanchard recognize the girl?
A. By her green suit B. By her red rose
C. By her beautiful face D. By her pictures
56 Why did John feel disappointed? Because _______.
A. he realized that it was not love
B. he found the girl was going away
C. he failed to find the girl with a rose
D. he knew that the girl would test him.

Everyone would like to be a millionaire but can you imagine having over S 30 million and only being 20 years old? Britney Spears from Kentwood,a small town in Louisiana,is an international pop superstar with not only S 30 million but also a S 2 million house in LA.At her young age,she can look after her family financially all her life.
This year is a big year for Britney,she is currently on a 31 date tour of the US and every concert is a sell out.That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 every time.It’s a tiring schedule but brings great rewards.When touring,she goes to bed at around 1 a.m.and then has a lie-in until 1 p.m.or 2 p.m.the next day.Her philosophy (人生哲学) is to take care of the body and be relaxed but always make sure you work hard and have fun.
Spears is not satisfied with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records,so she decided to branch out into the movie business and try a bit of acting.She made an appearance in “Austin Powers 3” in 2002 and she filmed a teenage comedy that was released in 2003.In this movie,she had a starring role.The movie was her own concept and she picked the writer.
In spite of the fact that she has not enjoyed the same popularity as a pop singer so far,she insists on trying more roles.For Britney,acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic about it all.If her movies are successful,her bank account is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she has been quoted as saying she does it for the love,not for money.
64.Tickets for Britney’s concert are ________.
A.booked in groups B.too expensive
C.not available D.all sold
65.The underlined word “you” in the second paragraph refers to _______.
A.a person in general B.a particular person
C.Britney herself only D.the reader
66.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Though young,Britney is a superstar both on the stage and screen
B.While touring,Britney is so tired that she has to sleep more than usual.
C.The teenage comedy was based on Britney’s own ideas.

Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days,but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.
If I have learned anything in my 16 years,it is that communication is very important,both when you disagree and when you get along.With any relationship,you need to let the other person know how you are feeling.If you are not able to communicate,your relationship drifts apart.When you are mad at your parents or anyone else,not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
Communication begins with the concerns of another.It means that you can’t just come home from school,go up to your room and talk to nobody.Even if you just say “Hi” and see how their day is for five minutes,it is better than nothing.
If you look up the word “communication” in the dictionary,it will say “the exchange of ideas,conveyance (传递) of information,correspondence (通信),means of communication;a letter or message”.To keep a good relationship,you must keep the communication strong.Let people know how you feel,even if it’s just by writing a note.
When dealing with parents,you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as parents.If you are trying to make them see something as you see it,tell them that you listen to what they have to say,but ask them politely to listen to you.Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse.
Here is an example.One night,Sophie went to a street party with her friends.She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks.but they didn’t feel she could just ask to go home.That would be rude.After all,they had been nice enough to take her along with them.Needless to say,she was late getting home.Her parents were mad at first,but when Sophie explained why she was late,they weren’t as mad and let the incident go.Communication was the key factor here.If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen,Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
Communication isn’t a one-way deal.It goes both ways.Just remember:if you get into a situation like Sophie’s,telling the other person how you feel and listening are key factors to communication.
68.The second paragraph mainly talks about ________.
A.the importance of friendship
B.making your feelings known to others
C.the importance of communication
D.the disagreement between generations
69.The key to happy relationship between parents and children is that _______.
A.children should always obey their parents
B.parents play the leading part
C.parents should mind their own business
D.both should make the other know their feelings
70.The example in the passage proves that ________.
A.Sophie’s parents were willing to listen to her
B.Sophie was very polite to her parents
C.Sophie did the right thing when she explained the reason of her being late
D.communication is the key to solving misunderstanding
71.All of the following statements are true EXCEPT ________.
A.if you don’t agree with others,you’d better let them know
B.it is better to say “Hi” to others than to say nothing
C.if you are too busy to communicate,just walk away
D.communication is a two-way deal

Those days I’ve prepared to complete my college degree. The last project was named “smile”, which required us to go out and smile at three people and 36 their reactions.
It was freezing. My friend and I went out to a fast food restaurant. We were standing in line, waiting to be 37 , when all of a sudden people around us began to back away from their position.
As I 38 I smelt a terrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor homeless men. As I looked down at the short gentleman close to me, he was smiling and his nice sky – blue eyes searched for 39 .
To sit in the restaurant and 40 up, they had to buy something. When the young casher at the counter asked what they wanted to order, one of them said coffee because that was all they could 41 . I smiled and asked the casher for two more breakfast meals on two 42 plates. Then I walked around the corner to the table that the men had chosen as a resting spot. I put the plates on the table and 43 the blue – eyed little man’s cold hands with my hands. With tears in his eyes, he said. “Thank you”. I noticed that all the 44 in the restaurant were set on me at that time.
