arent we supposed to get signs from the people that pass on? why did i not feel her presence anymore? is there a heaven? suddenly, a woman driving right by my side rolled down her window and distracted my unanswered thoughts. “excuse me, excuse me, excuse me,” she said loudly. thinking she was going to ask for my parking spot, i simply pointed to my car. the thought of having to say where my car was seemed like too much to bear. “no, excuse me,” she said again. at this point, i felt i had no choice but to see what this annoying lady wanted. as i got closer, i was startled(惊吓) - was this my grandmothers nurse, adu, who lived with her during her final months? i soon realized that she wasnt, although the resemblance was unusual. then, i realized that this adu was searching for something in her bag. surprisingly, i was overcome by a sense of relief that led me to be patient the entire time the lady was searching. others would be nervous by a stranger reaching in their bag, but i wasnt. she finally reached to the very bottom of her bag and handed me a three-page booklet. “it looks like you need this,” she said calmly with a warm smile on her face. i looked down at the mysterious and obviously used booklet and on the front cover in big bold letters read “what hope for dead loved ones?” it took me only a few seconds to comprehend the exchange with this woman, but by the time i looked up, she disappeared. i walked slowly into my car holding the tiny little book that was given to me with fear that it would fly away in the wind. i didnt know what it was exactly, but i knew that if my grandmother had anything to do with that i didnt want to let it go. i felt a sense of relaxation as i opened the first page. it explained how people pass on, but their spirit remains with us. this was the first time since my grandma had passed that i felt her with me, just like i had wanted. i didnt know whether to laugh or cry, but i did know that i finally felt happiness from the surprising change in events. i couldnt, and still cant, believe what had happened to me on that day. i dont remember the specific details that you usually hear about like what the person was wearing, the time of day, or even the weather, but it doesnt matter. it was a random day in november when my life turned back around and i began to feel hope again. it was real. it was a miracle(奇迹). and, ill remember it for the rest of my life. 56. the author refused to say anything to the woman but just pointed to her own car at first mainly because _. a. the author did not know the woman b. the woman interrupted the authors thoughts c. the author thought she wanted to use the parking space d. the author was too weak to say anything 57. what can we learn about the authors grandmother? a. she often made the author angry. b. she was kind to the author. c. she left nothing to the author. d. she lost faith in god. 58. what can be inferred from the passage? a. the author and the woman became good friends later. b. the author knows the specific details about this experience. c. the author was very grateful to the unknown woman. d. the woman turned out to be the authors grandmothers nurse. 59. what would be the best title for the passage?

if not, you may not have a dry sense of humor. british people, and particularly the english, are well-known for our dry sense of humor. we often say the opposite of what we mean in order to be funny, and tell jokes in a tone of voice that makes it sound like we are being completely serious. as us writer julian tan put it on the huffpost students blog: “it is as if it is opposite day every day in britain.” if the people of britain are known for having a “stiff upper lip” and not showing emotion, then our dry sense of humor shows this through jokes. often it will take a long time or several beers, to get a british person to tell you what they actually think about something and get behind the wall of humorous sarcasm (讽刺) that they have in front of them.english comedian ricky gervais put it like this: “we play jokes on our friends. we use sarcasm as a shield (护盾) and a weapon. we avoid being serious until its absolutely necessary.”it can be annoying and confusing if you havent been raised with these types of jokes: “why did he just say such a ridiculous thing? is he making fun of me?” but it is also true that understanding this type of humor is a good way to make friends with people in the uk, even if you dont find it funny.its important to remember that the person telling the joke may actually be making fun of himself or herself, not you. one of the characteristics of british humor is “its strong theme of self-deprecation” (making fun of oneself), according to tan. so dont worry often, english people, and british people in general, just want to make fun of themselves!60. according to the passage, we can know that someone with a dry sense of humor can _.a. not use sarcasm as a shield and a weapon.b. not make friends with people in the ukc. pretend to play jokes on their friendsd. say funny things in a serious way61. which of the following words best describes british humor according to julian tan?a. opposite.b. annoying.c. ridiculous. d. funny.62. the underlined phrase “stiff upper lip” in paragraph 3 refers to a quality of _. a. remaining calm b. communicating feelings c. taking a positive attitude d. focusing attention63. it can be inferred from the passage that _.a. british people are famous for being emotionalb. british peoples humor is often misunderstoodc. its a tradition for british people to make fun of each other d. it doesnt take a long time to make friends with british peoplecmrs bennet, pride and prejudice jane austen described mrs bennet as “a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper（脾气）”: she topped your list of the least favorite female family heads. with her single-minded devotion to marrying off her daughters, she is one of literatures parents involving themselves in their sons or daughters private lives. and at least she pays attention to her daughters. whatever one might lay at her daughters door, she defends them.helen graham, the tenant of wildfell hall the second and final novel by anne bront was so shocking that after annes death, her sister charlotte prevented its re-publication. published for the first time in 1848, it told the story of a woman who escapes her alcoholic husband to protect her young son. in fleeing her husband, helen was not just challenging social structures, she was breaking the law: at the time, a married woman had no independent legal existence, and by taking her child with her she was likely to be punished for kidnapping(诱拐). helens actions didnt just establish her as a good mother; they helped to cause a movement.marilla cuthbert, anne of green gables the adoptive mother of orphan anne makes herself known as a softy through the course of the 1908 novel: so much so that margaret attwood has claimed that marilla is the true central character: “her growing love for anne, and her growing ability to express that love not annes duckling-to-swan act is the real magic transformation. anne is the catalyst(催化剂) who allows the strict marilla to finally express her long-buried softer human emotions.”mrs waterbury, the railway children the railway childrens female family head is “a very real mother, strong but also easily hurt.” presenting an idealized(理想化) vision of childhood, yet the novel contains a tension between appearance and reality which some have said reflects its author e nesbits personal life. her husband had an ongoing affair with her best friend, who bore him two children that nesbit raised as her own. jenny agutter has said: “nesbits life was always unstable. what saved her was her belief that things would work out in the end against the background of her own tense and complex family life, she wrote stories about families that were joined perfectly together.”64. the passage mainly discusses _ in literature.a. families b. mothersc. emotional life d.
