(b)my grandfather lived only half a mile away from where i grew up in new york. every day, he would walk down to our house and bring my dad newspapers. along with the papers he would bring a small bag of treats (美食) for my two brothers and me.western new york had terrible winter weather: rain, sleet (雨夹雪), or even 3 feet of snow. even when he was 81, he still walked the half mile every single day. as a child, i looked forward to the daily treats, but now im older and i realize he braved the rough weather each day just to see us smile; i now value that more than anything else.my grandfather touched many lives. a woman who had been in hospital for five years told me her story. she said my grandfather would visit her twice a week at her home: to read to her, play bridge, or just chat. it lasted for years without stop. she had few visitors. even a hitch-hiker who my grandfather had picked up for free told me of my grandfathers influence on his life. my grandfather took the traveler to his home. after learning that the man was homeless, my grandfather gave him a place to stay. the man told me that no one had ever been so nice to him. he later found a job in a supermarket.i was touched, but not surprised to know all of the touching stories from which i understood my grandfathers selflessness. i have since tried to learn from him to help others. although he died years ago, we still respect him.46. the writers grandfather walked to his grandsons home each day in order to _.a. bring his son newspapers b. give his grandchildren some foodc. take exercise by walking d. see his son and grandchildren47. all of the following can describe the writers grandfather except _.a. kind b. selfless c. strict d. helpful48. the underlined word “hitch-hiker” in paragraph 3 refers to _. a. a person who gets a free car ride when traveling b. a person who likes traveling by car c. a person who is given up by parents d. a person who travels alone and gets lost49. from the text we can infer that _. a. the writer didnt know his grandfathers selflessness until years later b. the writers grandfather went to his house except on snowy days c. the writers grandfather ever looked after a woman in hospital for five years d. the writers grandfather ever helped a stranger find a job in a supermarket50. after learning about his grandfathers stories, the writer _.a. felt a little surprised at first b. followed the example of his grandfatherc. was much sad all the time d. didnt like his grandfathers action第二节： 阅读短文，回答问题。（每题2.5分，共10分）first came the survey that smoking causes lung cancer; then researchers found second-hand smoke leads to certain illnesses; another study found that “third-hand” smoke harms peoples health as well. research found that nicotine can stick to indoor surfaces (such as the surface of chairs, tables and clothes and even peoples skin) for days where it combines with bad stuff which injures peoples health. they form new cancer-causing stuff（材料，原料，东西）. this is the bad influence of “third-hand” smoke. scientists found there was a large amount of caner-causing stuff on indoor surfaces after a smoker had been away from the room for hours or even days. the stuff on the surfaces caused danger to people, especially young children. the idea of “third-hand” smoke came from a study by dr jonathan of the harvard cancer centre in boston. he said that a mixture of several kinds of bad stuff can remain on soft furniture, clothes and other indoor surfaces for hours or even days after a cigarette is put out. how much bad influence it has on peoples health depends on how wide the space is. the wider the space, the less influence it has. in a place as small as a car, “third-hand ” smokes influence can be very dangerous. some may think that smoking outside will be ok. but they are wrong. smoking outside can also form “third-hand” smoke, because nicotine will remain on the smokers skin and clothes and then get indoors with them.the study, published in the journal proceedings of the national academy of science, also asked for opinions on smoking in 1,500 families in new york and found that most parents knew about second-hand smoke, but only 3% of the parents heard about “third-hand” smoke.51. in which place can “third-hand” smokes influence be very dangerous? 52. why can “third-hand” smoke get indoors when people smoke outside? _53. according to the study, how many families parents in new york heard about “third-hand
