husband suggested we give her a computer to play against. i wasnt sure my mother was ready for it. after all, it had taken 10 years to persuade her to buy an electric cooker. even so, we packed up our old computer and delivered it to my parents home. and so began my mothers adventure in the world of computers. it also marked the beginning of an unusual teaching task for me. ive taught people of all ages, but i never thought i would be teaching my mother how to do anything. she has been the one teaching me all my life: to cook and sew; to enjoy the good times and put up with the bad. now it was my turn to give something back. it wasnt easy at the beginning. there was so much to explain and to introduce. slowly but surely, my mother caught on, making notes in a little notebook. after a few months of scrabble and other games, i decided it was time to introduce her to word processing(文字处理). this proved to be a bigger challenge to her, so i gave her some homework i asked her to write me a letter, using different letter types, colors and spaces. “are you this demanding with your kindergarten pupils?” she asked. “no, of course not,” i said. “they already know how to use a computer.” my mother isnt the only one experiencing a fast personal growth period. thanks to the computer, my father has finally got over his phone allergy(过敏反应). for as long as i can remember, any time i called, my mother would answer. dad and i have had more phone conversations in the last two months than weve had in the past 20 years.56. what does the author do?a. she is a cook. b. she is a teacher.c. she

as co-director of a television station in chicago. unfortunately, the station is not here. after thinking long and hard about it, weve concluded that the right decision is to move to chicago.” marc looked shocked, while his sister rachel breathlessly started asking when theyd be moving. “its surprising, but exciting!” she said. marc simply said, “we cant goi cant leave all my friends. id rather stay here and live with tommy lyons!” the tisichs hoped that by the time they moved in august, marc would grow more used to the idea of leaving. however, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings. when the morning of the move arrived, marc was nowhere to be found. his parents called tommy lyons house, but mrs. lyons said she hadnt seen marc. mrs. tisich became increasingly concerned, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly. what they didnt know was that marc had started walking over to tommys house, with a faint idea of hiding in lyonss attic(阁楼) for a few days. but something happened on the way as marc walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood: the fence that he and his mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together. how much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place? marc didnt take the time to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartons(纸板箱)the right size to hold his record collection. 66. what would most likely happen next? a. marc would bring his records over to the lyonss house. b. mr. and mrs. tisich would call the police. c. marc would join his family for house moving. d. mr. and mrs. tisich would start searching for marc.din july 1994 jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, was struck by 21 pieces of a comet（彗星）. when the fragment（碎片）landed in the southern part of the giant planet, the explosions were watched by scientists here on earth. but what if our own planet was hit by a comet?the year is 2094. it has been announced that a comet is heading towards the earth. most of it will miss our plant, but two fragments will probably hit the southern part of the earth. the news has caused panic.on 17 july, a fragment four kilometers wide enters the earths atmosphere with a huge explosion. about half of the fragment is destroyed. but the major part survives and hits the south atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. the sea boils and an enormous wave is created and spreads. the wall of water rushes towards southern africa at 800 kilometers an hour. cities on the african coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned. the wave moves into the indian ocean and heads towards asia.millions of people are already dead in the southern part of the earth, but the north wont escape for long. tons of broken pieces are thrown into the atmosphere by the explosions. as the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. crops are ruined. wars break out as countries fight for food. a year later civilization has collapsed. no more than 10 million people have survived.could it really happen? in fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the earth. the dinosaurs（恐龙）were on the earth for over
