well, many years ago i went to bed one night in a railway sleeping car, and during the night i dreamed about a tiny boy who acted rather like a mouse. thats how the story of stuart little got started.as for charlottes web, i like animals and my barn（谷仓）is a very pleasant place to be, at all hours. one day when i was on my way to feed the pig, i began feeling sorry for the pig because, like most pigs, he was doomed to die. this made me sad. so i started thinking of ways to save a pigs life. i had been watching a big grey spider at her work and was impressed by how clever she was at weaving. gradually i worked the spider into the story that you know, a story of friendship and salvation（拯救）on a farm. three years after i started writing it, it was published. (i am not a fast worker, as you can see.)sometimes im asked how old i was when i started to write, and what made me want to write. i started earlyas soon as i could spell. in fact, i cant remember any time in my life when i wasnt busy writing. i dont know what caused me to do it, or why i enjoyed it, but i think children often find pleasure and satisfaction in trying to set their thoughts down on paper, either in words or in pictures. i was no good at drawing, so i used words instead. as i grew older, i found that writing can be a way of earning a living.some of my readers want me to visit their school. some want me to send a picture, or an autograph, or a book. and some ask questions about my family and my animals and my pets. much as id like to, i cant go visiting. i cant send books, eitheryou can find them in a bookstore or a library. many children assume that a writer owns (or even makes) his own books. this is not truebooks are made by the publisher. if a writer wants a copy, he must buy it. thats why i cant send books. and i do not send signaturesi leave that to the movie stars. i live most of the year in the country, in new england. from our windows we can look out at the sea and the mountains. i live near my married son and three grandchildren.are my stories true, you ask? no, they are imaginary tales, containing fantastic characters and events. in real life, a family doesnt have a child who looks like a mouse; in real life, a spider doesnt spin words in her web. in real life, a swan doesnt blow a trumpet. but real life is only one kind of lifethere is also the life of the imagination. and although my stories are imaginary, i like to think that there is some truth in them, tootruth about the way people and animals feel and think and act.yours

japanese tourists taking a holiday in australia got stuck when their gps told them they could drive from the mainland to an island, failing to mention the 15 kilometres of water and mud in between.as they drove their hired car from moreton bay in queensland to nearby north stradbroke island, they started to notice the firm gravel（沙石）surface they were driving on giving way to the renowned bay mud. however, being confident that their gps would direct them to a road soon, they decided to plough on, managing to travel around 500 metres before their hyundai getz（现代汽车）was up to its axles tires in mud. to make matters worse, the tide started to come in and soon forced them to seek help and abandon the vehicle. just four hours later the car was trapped in two metres of water to the great amusement of onlookers on the shore and passengers on passing boats and ferries.yuzu noda, 21, said she was listening to the gps and “it told us we could drive down there. it kept saying it would navigate us to a road. but we got stucktheres lots of mud.” she and her travel companions tomonari saeki, 22, and keita osada, 21, instead had to give up their plans for a day trip to the island and headed back to the gold coast of a lift from the racq tow truck（吊车）driver who was called to the trapped car. no such luck for the hired car though after assessing the situation, no attempt was made to recover it. the students from tokyo, who are due to return home tomorrow, said the experience would not put them off returning to australia for another visit. “we want to come back to australia again. everyone is very nice, even today.” ms yuzu said.remaining excited, mr. tomonari joked that the car may have got stuck because it was built in korea. “maybe if it was japanese it would be okay,” he said. he added: “it has rained every day on our six day holiday. hopefully next time we come back it will be sunny.” the car was covered by insurance, but the tourists will have to pay up to about $1500 in extra charges.55. the three japanese tourists got stuck because _.a. there was no way to the islandb. their gps was broken during their journeyc. their gps had given the wrong informationd. their car was made in korea instead of japan56. they didnt abandon their car until _.a. there came the tide b. they got stuck in the mudc. some onlookers went to save them d. they managed to travel

truck driver.d. they had to turn to passengers on passing boats and ferries.58. according to the passage, which of the following is true?a. the car was left where it was trapped.b. the passengers saved these students in the end.c. mr. tomonari got very frustrated after the journey.d. the car was covered by insurance so they didnt have to pay any money.cthere are many dimensions(维) to footballs
