Nick Campbell sat at the side of the road and wondered what to do next. He looked at the second-hand Harley Davidson he’d bought from a back-street garage back home in Miami at the beginning of his trip six weeks before.
For years he had dreams of crossing the United States from east to west by motorbike and he’d finally decided that it was now or never. He’d given up his job, sold his car and set off for the journey of his dreams. He’d been lucky, or so he thought, to find this old Harley Davidson and had bought it for a very reasonable price------it had cost him just $600. But five kilometers from Atlanta, he had run out of luck. The motorbike had broken down.
He pushed the bike into town and found a garage. The young mechanic told him to leave the bike overnight and come back the next day. The following morning, to his surprise, the man asked if the bike was for sale. “Certainly not,” he replied, paid his bill and hit the road.
When he got to Kansas the old machine ran out of steam again. This time Nick thought about selling it and buying something more reliable, but decided to carry on. When the bike was going well, he loved it.
However, in Denver, Colorado the bike broke down again so he decided to take it to a garage and offer it for sale. The mechanic told him to come back in the morning.
The next day, to his amazement, the man offered him $2,000. Realizing the man must be soft in the head, but clearly not short of money, Nick asked for $ 3,000. The man agreed and they signed the papers. Then the mechanic started laughing. In fact it was several minutes before he could speak and when he could he said, “That’s the worst deal you’ll ever make, boy."
He removed the seat. On the underside was the inscription (铭文):
'To Elvis, love James Dean. '
56. Harley Davidson here refers to a _________.
A. car          B. truck         C. garage          D. motorbike
57. Which of the following did Nick value most?
A. Harley Davidson.   B. His job.    C. His dream to travel.   D. His car.
58. Nick was unwilling to sell his Harley Davidson because he thought it was
A. lovely        B. valuable       C. reliable         D. old
59. The underlined word ~ hi the 6th paragraph is closest in meaning to
A. clever        B. crazy          C. honest           D. kind
60. At the end of the story, Nick must have felt very __________.
A. sorry          B. delighted        C. excited         D. moved

Once upon a time there lived an old man in a nice cottage with a large garden. The old man was seen   36   his flowers all the time. They were so well-tended that every passer-by could not but   37   for a glance.

Then, suddenly he   39   the old gardener was blind.   40   , the young man asked, “Why are you busy tending these flowers every day which you can’t   41   in fact?” The old man smiled and answered that “ I can tell you   42   reasons.

I believe every flower has   54 with which they can see the kindness of the man’s heart. The blind man grows flowers in his heart. Though   55 to see the beauty of blossoming, he surely can hear the voice of it, I suppose.

It was a bitter, cold craning in evening Virginia years ago. An old man was waiting for a ride across the river. The wait seemed endless. His body became stiff the cold wind.
He heard the faint, steady   31  of approaching hooves (马蹄) coming along the frozen path,   32 , he watched as several horsemen   33  the bend. He let the first one pass by, then another and another. Finally, the last rider neared the sport where the old man sat like a snow   34 . As this one drew near ,the old man   35 the rider’s eye and said, “Sir, would you mind giving an old man a   36  to the other side?” There appear to be passage way by foot."
Reining his horse, the rider replied, “Sure. Hop aboard.” Seeing the old man was unable to   37  his half – frowned body from the ground, the horseman dismounted and helped the old man onto the horse. The horse took the old man not just across the fiver ,but to his   38 .
As they neared the cottage, the horseman’   39 caused him to inquire ,"Sir ,I notice that you let several other riders   40 without making an effort to secure a ride. Then I came up and you   41 asked me for a ride. I'm curious. What if I had   42 and left you there?"
The old man   43 himself slowly down from the horse, looked the rider straight in the eyes, and replied, "I’ve been around here for some time .I   44 I know people pretty good. The old – timer continued. I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately saw there was no   45 for my situation. It would have been   46 even to ask them for a ride. But when looked into your eyes, kindness and compassion were   47 . I knew, then and there, that your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me   48 my time of need.”
Those heartwarming comments   49 the horseman deeply.
“I'm most grateful for what you have said.” He told the old man .''May I have get too   50 in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion ."
With that Thomas Jefferson turned his around and made his way back.

第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题，每小题2，满分40分)
A
When he thought of the past,my grandfather would sometimes show us photographs of himself at school. They were brown and faded,and it was hard to believe that the blurred figure of the little boy in the short trousers and socks could ever have been Grandfather. Besides,he wore a cap---andthe boys in the photographs wore caps pulled so far forward that half of their faces were obscured. When Grandfather asked us to pick him out from the group,we would surely point to the wrong boy.
On one such occasion my younger sister,aged six,burst into tears when Grandfather proudly guided her finger to the right boy. "How could that boy be you?"she cried. "He should have a beard.” We were,of course,all convinced that grandfathers should have beards ,preferably white and bushy,like our owngrandfather's.
"I wasa good scholar ,”Grandfather would say,wagging his beard over the photographs."I should have been top of the c1ass if I hadn't had to get up at six every morning to milk the cows and chop the wood,and again when I came home from school.”
"But Saturdays?What did you do on Saturdays?"
"Saturdays,if it was fine, I’d be out all day in the fields with the men,"replied Grandfather."And if it was wet,I’d be helping my mother with odd jobs round the house.There wasn't much time for studying."
We all tried hard to imagine what it would have been like to have been Grandfather getting up at crack of dawn and never,obviously,having amoment for himself.It seemed we had learnt something from what Grandfather had said about his childhood.

A if he had had more time for studying,hewould have been the best in his class
B.he should have spent more time studyingrather than playing ballgames
C.his school days should not have been so hard and miserable
