A
When I was fourteen years old, I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn’t the first time I had been abroad (Like many English children, I often went to France). So when I went to America, I thought I would have a nice easy holiday without any language problems.
How wrong I was! The misunderstanding(误解) began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to tell my American friend Danny that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.
“Yes,” I said, “I want to give my friend a ring.”
“Well, that’s nice,” he said, “Are you getting married? But aren’t you too young?”
“Who is talking about marriage(婚姻)?” I replied, “I only want to give my friend a ring to tell him I’ve arrived. Can you tell me where there is a phone box?”
“Oh,” he said, “there is a phone downstairs.”
When at last we met, Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.
“Don’t worry,” he said to me, “I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which Americans use differently in meaning from British people. You’ll soon get used to all the funny things they say. Most of the time, British and American people understand each other.”
56. The writer was from _________.
A. Japan B. France C. America D. England
57. The writer thought ________ in America at first.

Ren Kexin is preparing a Christmas gift for her best friend. It is a cross-stitch (十字绣). Making the gift takes up a lot of her free time.
“I’m interested in making gifts myself,” said the Grade 10 girl, “and I believe my friend will like it very much.”
Many Chinese students make gifts instead of buying them. Ren is one of them. A DIY gift is not only cheaper but also interesting to make and it has a special meaning.
Teenagers also make other gifts like bracelets (手链), Chinese knots (中国结). “Gift shops may sell many of them, but any gift you make yourself is unique (独一无二的),” Zheng Ruobing, a 16-year-old girl said. She once made a cross-stitch for an American teacher. Her teacher was excited with it.
However, not all students are DIY fans. Luo Dinghan thinks making gifts is a waste of time. “I often buy gifts for my friends, as time is more important than money,” he said, “And some gifts you get from stores are much more beautiful.”
61. The report says that making a DIY gift may_____________.
A. be easy B. be boring C. take much time D. cost much
62. The report tells many good points of DIY gifts except (除了) that ________________.
A. they are interesting to make B. they have special meanings
C. they are cheap to make D. they look very beautiful
63. Zheng Ruobing ____________ her American teacher.
A. made a cross-stitch for B. bought a bracelet for
C. made a Chinese tie for D. got a cross-stitch from
64. The Chinese meaning for the underlined word “waste” should be _____________.
A. 珍惜 B. 浪费 C. 投资 D. 节约
65. Luo Dinghan thinks ______________.
A. gifts from stores cost more money B. money is more important than time
C. DIY is a waste of time
D. DIY gifts can be more popular than gifts from stores
C
An old man was fishing on the bank of a river. A child came to see him fishing. The old man was really good at fishing and it didn’t take long for him to catch a full basket of fish. The old man saw that the child was very cute, and he wanted to give her a whole basket of fish. But the child shook her head. The old man was surprised and asked, “Why don’t you want the fish?”
The child answered, “I want the fishing rod(竿) in your hands.”
The old man asked, “Why do you want the rod?”
“It doesn’t take long to eat all the fish in a basket. But if I have the fishing rod, I can go fishing by myself and I won’t be afraid of not having any more fish to eat.”
I think you will certainly say that the child is very smart. Wrong! If she doesn’t know how to fish, she can not have fish to eat, even though(尽管) she has the fishing rod. It’s useless to only have a fishing rod. Fishing skills are the most important, not the fishing rod.
Too many people think that if they have a “fishing rod” in their life, they will no longer fear(害怕)the wind and rain. They are just like the child, who thought that if she had a fishing rod, she would have fish to eat.
66. The old man was fishing on the bank of ___________.
A. a river B. a lake C. a pool D. a stream
67. Why did the child refuse(拒绝) the fish the old man gave her?
A. Because she didn’t like fish. B. Because she wanted his fishing rod.
C. Because the old man had few fish. D. Because she wanted to learn fishing skills.
68. The writer thought the child was _______ after she explained why she didn’t want the fish.
A. smart B. hard-working C. silly(傻的) D. creative(有创造力的)
69. The article mainly tell us ____________.
A. if you have a “fishing rod” in your life, you won’t be afraid of anything
B. if you have a fishing rod, you’ll have a lot of fish to eat
C. “fishing skills” are more important than “the fishing rod” in life
D. “the fishing rod” is more important than the fish that people catch
70. What is the best title for the article?
A. The Fishing Rod B. The Fishing Man
C. The Fishing Girl D. The Fishing Experience
