km away from sydney, australia. i was looking forward to having five days off from duty. unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in sydney had already left. so i thought id hitch a ride (搭便车).i waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as gordon. he said that although he couldnt give me a lift, i should come back to his house for lunch. he noticed me standing for hours in the november heat and thought i must be hungry. i was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使放心) me i was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. when we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. after lunch, he helped me find a lift home.twenty-five years later, in 2003, while i was driving to a nearby town one day, i saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. i thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favor id been given decades earlier. i pulled over and picked him up. i made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.after a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “you havent changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”i couldnt remember where id met him. he then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. it was gordon.21 the author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because _.a. her work delayed her trip to sydneyb. she missed the only train back homec. she was going home for her holidaysd. the town was far away from sydney22 which of the following did gordon do according to paragraph 2?a. he helped the author find a ride.b. he gave the author a ride back home.c. he bought sandwiches for the author.d. he watched the author for three hours.23 why did the author offer a lift to the elderly man?a. she recognized he was gordon. b. she had known him for decades.c. she was going to the nearby town. d. she wanted to repay the favor she once got.24 what does the author want to tell readers through the story?a. those who give rides will be repaid. b. good manners bring about happiness.c. giving sometimes produces nice results. d. people should offer free rides to others.b silence is unnatural to man.he begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness.in between he does all he can to make a noise in the world,and he fears silence more than anything else.even his conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence.if he is introduced to another person,and a number of pauses occur in the conversation,he regards himself as a failure,a worthless person,and is full of envy of the emptiest-headed chatterbox（喋喋不休的人）. he knows that ninety nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly,but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure（蜡塑人像）.the aim of conversation is not,for the most part,to communicate ideas;it is to keep up the buzzing sound.there are,it must be admitted,different qualities of buzz;there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito.but at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person.most buzzing, fortunately,is pleasant to the ear,and some of it is pleasant even to the mind.he would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors.those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk.very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new.some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other peoples ears,though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a swiss hotel.at the end of an evening,during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time.they just prove themselves to be successful conservationists.25according to the author,people make conversation to .a. exchange ideas b. prove their valuec. achieve success in life d. overcome their fear of silence26by “the buzzing of a fly”(para.1),the author means “ ”.a. the noise of an insect b. a low whispering soundc. meaningless talks d. the voice of a chatterbox27according to the passage,people usually talk to their neighbors .a. about whatever they have prepared b. about whatever they want toc. in the hope of learning something new d. in the hope of getting on well28what is the authors purpose in writing the passage?a. to discuss why people like talking about weather.b. to encourage people to join in conversations.c. to persuade people to stop making noises.d. to explain why people keep talking.chello,
