lunchtime and i walked into a small branch office on the west side. i had come to 36 a checking account. the only officer on 37 was a fortyish black man, standing 38 a small counter from a young white boy who was wearing a v-necked sweater. i think i was especially 39 of the boy because he looked more like a kid from a prep school than a 40 in a west side bank. the boy continued to 41 my attention because of what happened next. he was holding an open savings-account book and 42 an expression of disappointment. “but i dont understand. i opened the account myself, so why cant i 43 any money?” the boy said, his voice breaking. “i know it is, but those are the rules. ive already explained to you that a fourteen-year-old is not 44 to withdraw money without a letter from his parents,” the officer explained patiently. suddenly i noticed the account had a series of small deposits and withdraws. then i questioned the officer, “how do you 45 that? why did you let him withdraw money before, but not now?” he looked 46 . “because the tellers were not aware of his age before and now they are. its really very 47 .” i turned to the boy with a shrug. “youre really getting 48 ,” i said. “you ought to get your parents to come in here and 49 .” the boy looked destroyed. 50 , he put his savings book in a rear-pocket and walked out of the bank. the officer turned to me. “you know,” he said, “you really shouldnt have got 51 .” i couldnt believe what this idiot was saying. “we were 52 this morning that some neighborhood bully has been shaking down (敲诈) this boy for more than a month. the other guy was 53 him to take money out every week and hand it over. the poor kid was 54 too scared to tell anyone. anyway, the police are on the case and theyll probably make a(n) 55 today. “you mean there

womanbdont you just love ice skating every winter? i am sure, that since winter is approaching, your skates are set to come out, just waiting to be used. impress your friends with your new trick on how to ice -skate backwards with the help of these tips. skating backwards on ice is a bit difficult but once you master the basic, there s nothing like it. follow the steps given below and you will be able to skate backwards in no time. stand straightthe first thing that you need to do is, stand straight. if you feel that you are falling backwards, then just put your chin up and slightly bend your knees. dont worry; this happens to all. confidence is what you needthe most important step while learning how to skate backwards, is having enough confidence in yourself and in what you are doing. how can you achieve this? by practice. just practice rolling backwards down a gentle slop every single day or just by pushing off from a wall or something of that sort. but before you do that, make sure that the place where you are practicing is free from any kind of debris （碎片） because otherwise, you could end up in the hospital due to some accident. while going backwards, just get used to the feeling of moving backwards. one of the important ice skating tips and techniques is that if you feel that you are losing your balance, then scissor （做剪式运动） your skates. keep practicing this till you are confident about it. maintain speedconfident now? great! now the next step is to maintain your speed. while rolling in a straight line with one skate, with the other try sculling （滑浆）, that is, keep pushing yourself backwards with an outwards stroke （滑动）. now bring the skate which you were using to scull, and then again, repeat the same process. make sure that you put most of your weight on the skate which is moving straight and not the one with which you are sculling. now, try the same thing using the other foot. again keep doing this till you are confident enough. increase your speed nowonce you are confident that you can scull with either foot, the next thing that you have to do is increase your speed. try some of your own tricks now. scull with either foot or with both at the same time. scull and be awarewhile you keep one foot straight, keep sculling with the other. you can do that simultaneously （同时，一起） with both feet. concentrate on what you are doing but dont get so involved that you dont see where you are going. if you are not watching your back, you might just bang against something or someone. 59. according to the text confidence comes from _ .a. constant exercise b. strict coaches c. high speed d. good techniques60. which is the right order of ice - skating backwards?a. increasing your speed. b .being able to scull with one foot. c. being about to stand straight. d. trying some different tricks. a. cadb b. cbda c. cbad d. acbd61. in the last paragraph the author mainly wants to express _ .a. one must be brave to learn to ice - skate backwards b. skating and keeping cautious are both important c. its difficult to concentrate when ice - skating backwardsd. it s a common thing to hit someone when ice - skating backwards62. the purpose of the text is _ . a. to offer some advice on ice - skating backwards b. to introduce the culture of ice-skating backwardsc. to explain advantages of ice - skating backwardsd. to compare different ways of ice - skating backwardsci had an experience once which taught me something about the ways people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. one january, i officiated (主持) at two funerals for two elderly women. both died a natural death. at the first home, the son of the deceased (已故的) woman said, “if only i had sent my mother to florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. its my fault that she died.” at the second home, the son said, “if only i hadnt insisted on her going to florida, she would be alive today. that long airplane ride was more than she could take. its my fault.”when things dont turn out as we would like them to, we tend to think that had we done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believed that the opposite course, for example, keeping mother at home, would have turned out better. after all, how could it have turned out any worse?there seem to be two elements involved in our readiness to feel guilty. the first lies in our belief that the world makes sense and that there is a reason for everything that happens. the second is the thought that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happens. the roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. a baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything
