I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout(付款台) earlier today.All of the checkouts were    36  , and the woman behind me was not happy! Every word that came from her mouth was a(n)    37  ! She wasn’t happy with the number of checkouts      38   ; she wasn’t happy with the amount of shopping some people had in their baskets; she wasn’t happy because this supermarket didn’t have a stand where she    39   scan her own shopping.
I listened to her    40  looking around as I loaded my stuff onto the conveyor belt (传送带).I didn’t want    41   to do with that kind of attitude, and if ever I’d felt like letting someone go     42    of me, it wouldn’t be such a woman!
But then I    43  back.Standing beside the woman was a five-year-old girl,    44   her granddaughter.The girl’s part of the shopping    45  of some comic books.
I couldn’t    46  it.I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt,     47   a space.“After you,” I said to the woman and the girl, and    48   them to a big    49   .The woman was delighted, and even    50   to complain ---- until she was walking away.
So,  51  bother having helped? It was because that little girl was probably taking in her granny’s complaint like a sponge(海绵).She was learning how to    52   situations like that by listening to her granny.I’d seen that I could interrupt that complaining, and put a smile and some   53   into the middle of it.
We can all complain; we can all react    54   , but it doesn’t have to be like that.And, even if only for a few     55    , I wanted to leave that little soul with just a glimpse of another way.

The spectacular Victoria Falls links two countries, Zimbabwe and Zambia.It was discovered by David Livingstone in November 1855 and is known in the local language, as Mosi-oa-tunya, “the smoke that thunders”.It was Livingstone who named Victoria Falls after his Queen and stated in his own famous diary entry--- “Angels in their flight must have gazed.”
Adventure sports and a range of accommodation
The rustic(乡村的)Victoria Fall town--- just ten minutes from the Fall, and on the outskirts of the Zambezi National Park--- has all facilities necessary to act as a base for exploring the region.Accommodation is plentiful--- from low budget campsites to luxury hotels.
And across the border in Livingstone, Zambia, visitors will find a town suitable for the adventure sports enthusiasts with lots of travel and adventure sports companies.
Victoria Bridge--- the third highest Bungee jump in the world
At a height of 364 feet, the Victoria Falls Bridge, completed in 1905, is the world’s third highest Bungee jump, though the scream factor is arguably the loudest, making it a great draw-card for adventure sports enthusiasts.While dropping into the abyss (深渊), you will be blasted with spray from the thundering Victoria Falls, and then jerked (猛烈) back to reality within inches of the swirling eddies (漩涡) of the Zambezi below.
How to enjoy the Victoria Falls Experience--- take to the sky’s and the water
Anyone can pay an entrance fee and walk around the ridge of Victoria Falls and take some good pictures to send home, but to truly experience the size and scope of the spray, you’ve got to get airborne, and there are options--- tame and a little wild: fixed wing planes, helicopters, microlights.
River Rafting, in many shapes and sizes, is conducted on both sides of the Zambezi River, in Zimbabwe and Zambia below Victoria Falls.
63.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The introduction to the adventure sports at Victoria Falls. 
B.The description of the beauty of Victoria Fall.
C.The development of the adventure sports in this region.
D.The introduction to the options of accommodation in this region.
64.What does David Livingstone think of Victoria Falls by saying “Angels in their flight must
have gazed.”?
A.Quite mysterious.      B.A bit dangerous
C.Amazingly beautiful.      D.Out of reach.
65.The author believe that the best way to experience Victoria Falls is______________.
A.on foot           B.by Bungee jump   C.by air      D.by river rafting
66.Which of the following best shows the relationship of the following places?
=" Victoria" Falls           =" Victoria" Falls town           =" Zambezi" National Park

He had travelled thousands of miles in the hope of earning some money,but 18-year-old Lin Kongming never knew danger was waiting for him.
He and six other migrant workers from Fujian Province spent 36 hours in Iraq as international hostages(人质). But luckily,they were set free last Tuesday morning,unharmed by the people who had taken them hostage.
After hard work by Chinese diplomats(外交官)in the region the Iraqi kidnappers(绑架者)agreed to hand them over to a local religious group.“The friendly relations between the Chinese and Iraqi peoples have played a key role in the release of the hostages,”said Foreign Ministry spokesman Kong Quan. China refused to join the US-led coalition(联军)in the Iraq war.
Since April 4,over 60 hostages from 12 countries,including America,Italy and Japan,have been taken in Iraq. Some have been released, others were killed.
The Iraqi resistance groups have started taking foreigners hostage in an attempt to force the US-led troops out of their country. As a result,many foreigners have left,fearing the situation will get worse. Some nations are also considering removing their troops from Iraq. Thailand has ordered its forces not to leave their camp and may bring them home before September as originally planned. New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark is considering similar action.
But Dan Senor,spokesman for the US-led coalition in Baghdad,said that it would not negotiate(谈判)with “terrorists or kidnappers” to get hostages released.
小题1:The seven workers from Fujian were set free mainly because ______.
A.they were too poor to pay anything
B.kidnappers didn’t know they were Chinese
C.China didn’t take sides with the US-led coalition
D.kidnappers were friendly to the Chinese
小题2:Why did the Iraqi resistance groups start to take foreigners hostage?
A.To show their anger towards the occupation of foreign troops.
B.To tell the world they would fear nothing.
C.To make foreign armies leave their country.
D.To resist the American troops.
小题3:The author mentioned Dan Senor to show the US ______.
A.wouldn’t give in to Iraqi terrorists or kidnappers
B.had enough power to station in Iraq
C.wouldn’t give up unless it could get something
D.had no plan to bring its troops home
小题4:The passage mainly tells us ______.
A.the hostage crises in Iraq
B.foreigners were not welcome in Iraq
C.the Chinese hostages were set free
D.keeping away from Iraq is a wise choice
