第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
In 1995 Patrick Combs was living in San Francisco and trying desperately to make ends meet. He had just written a guide for college students called Major in Success and he was using the book to build what he hoped would be a successful career as a motivational speaker,helping people to make the most of their talents and abilities. And no one needed his advice more than Patrick himself. Money had always been tight in Patrick's family and,at 28,he thought it was always going to be like that for him.
But you never know your luck!He found himself looking at a junk mail promising that if he sent money to a certain company,he would soon be receiving huge cheques (iL#) which would make him rich. And to prove it,the company had put a sample cheque in with their letter.
He thought it would be a funny joke to deposit (存储) the cheque in his account. He would give bank employees a laugh when they discovered that “some stupid people” had tried to cash a junk mail cheque. So he wrote in the amount of the deposit, $95,093.35.
After ten days,much to his shock,he found that the cheque had been cleared and the money had been put into his account. The junk mail company had succeeded in making the cheque look real — far too real. With “money” in his account,Patrick became worried. He couldn’t think of anything else for two months. After researching his own legal position long and hard,he discovered that he was not legally responsible for returning the money — he had committed no crime.
But in the end,Patrick decided to do the “right” thing. He returned the money to the bank. Patrick had by this time become famous and he used the story to make his career as a motivational speaker. Today his money worries are over.
21. What did Patrick worry about most at 28?
A. Money. B. His book.

A. He wanted to play a joke on the bank.
B. He planned to put money into the bank.
C. He tried to realise his dream of being rich.
D. He did what the letter instructed him to do.
23. What did Patrick do after he got the money?
A. He committed a crime.
B. He looked up many legal rules.
C. He worried about it for three months.
D. He unlocked the mystery of the cheque.
24. What can we infer from the text?

B. People shouldn’t wait for their luck.
C. Do the right thing and your luck will come.
D. Success will come when you make the most of yourself.

Hi Becky,

One afternoon,she was looking a small sculpture when a young man came into the room and started to put it into her backpack. She called the security guard because she thought a man was trying to steal it. She was embarrassing to discover that the sculpture belonged to him!Anyway,he didn't mind and he asked her to going for a coffee. They get married a month later.
