The usual laughter _37_, and people stirred（搅动）to go. Papaderos _38_ his hand, stilled the room, and looked at me for a long time, asking with his eyes if I was _39_ and seeing from my eyes that I was. “I will answer your question.” Taking his _40_ out of his hip pocket, he dished into a leather billfold（钱包） and brought out a very small _41_ mirror, about the size of a quarter. And what he said went like this:” When I was a small child, during the war, we were very poor and we lived in a remote village. One day, on the road, I found the _42_ piece of a mirror. A German motorcycle had been wrecked（破坏） in that place. “I tried to find all the pieces and _43_ them together, but it was not possible, so I kept only the largest piece.This one. And by _44_ it on a stone I made it round. And I began to play with it as a toy and became fascinated by the fact _45_ I could reflect light into dark places where the sin would _46_ shine - in deep holes and crevices and dark clothes. It became a game for me to get light into the most _47_ places I could find. I kept the little mirror, and as I went about my grew up, I _48_ take it out in idle moments and continue the _49_ of the game. As I became a man, I grew to understand that this was not _50_ a childs game but a metaphor for what I might do with my life. I _51_ understand that I am not the light or the source of light. But light-truth, understanding, knowledge - is there, and it will only _52_in many dark places if I reflect it. “I am a fragment(碎片) of a mirror whose design and shape I do not know. _53_, with what I have I can reflect light into the dark places of this world - into the black places in the _54_ of men- and change some things in some people. Perhaps others may see and do likewise. This is what I AM _55_.

After the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, Earthquake had good news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse. More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims. Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred a 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the citys high ways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the citys buildings and highways, making them more resistance to quakes. Despite the good mews, civil engineers arent resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place. In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquakes vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.56. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that _. A. new computers had been installed in the buildings. B. it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highways. C. large numbers of Los Angles residents had gone for a holiday. D. improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways.57. The smart buildings discussed in the passage _. A. would cause serious financial problems B. would be worthwhile though costly. C. would increase the complexity of architectural design. D. can reduce the ground vibrations caused by earthquakes.58. It can inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on _. A. the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital construction. B. the development of flexible building materials C. the reduction of the impact of ground vibrations. D. early forecasts of earthquakes.59. The authors purpose in writing the passage is to _. A. compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U.S. B. encourage civil engineers to make more extensive use of computers. C. outline the history of the development of quake-resistant building materials. D. report new developments in constructing quake-resistant buildings. B A few days ago I asked my sons governess (女家庭教师) Julia to come into my study. “Be seated, Julia,” I said, “Lets settle our accounts, I guess you most likely need some money, but maybe youre too polite to mention it. Now then, we agree on thirty dollars a month ” “Forty.” “No, thirty. I made a note of it. I always pay our governess thirty. Well, um, youve been here two months, so ” “Two months and five days.” “Exactly two months. I made a special note of it. That means you have sixty dollars coming to you. Take off nine Sundays you know you didnt work with Tom on Sundays, you only took walks And three holidays ” Julia was biting her finger nail nervously, her face red, but not a word. “Three holidays, therefore take off twelve dollars. Four days Tom was sick and there were no lessons, as you were occupied only with Dick. Three days you had a toothache and my wife gave you permission not to work after lunch, Twelve and seven-nineteen. Take nineteen off that leaves. Hmm forty one dollars. Correct?” Julias left eye reddened with tears. Her chin trembled; she coughed nervously and blew her nose, but still not a word. “Around New Years Day you broke a teacup and a saucer; take off two dollars. The cup cost more, it was a treasure of the family, but forget it. Then, due to your neglect, Tom climbed a tree and tore his jacket; take away ten. Also duo to your carelessness, the maid stole Dicks shoes. You ought to watch everything! You get paid for it. So, that means five more dollars off. The tenth of January I gave ten dollars.” “You didnt.” sobbed Julia. “But I made a note of it.” “Well if you say so.” “Take twenty seven from forty one - that leaves fourteen.” Her eyes were filled with tears. Poor girl! “Only once was I given any money,” she whispered, her voice trembling, “and that was by your wife. Three dollars, nothing more.” “Really” You see now, and I didnt know that! Take three form fourteen - leaves eleven. Heres your money, my dear. Three, three, three, one and one. Here it is!” I handed her eleven dollars. She took them and pocketed them. “Merci (法语：谢谢) ，”she whispered. I jumped to my feet and started pacing the room. I was overcome with anger. “For what, this merci?” I asked. “For the money.” “But you know Ive cheated you - robbed you! I have actually stolen from you! Why this merci?” “In my other places they didnt give me anything at all.” “They didnt give you anything” No wonder! I played a little joke on you, a cruel lesson, just to teach you I am going to give you all the eighty dollars! Here they are in the envelope Is it really possible to be so spineless (懦弱)？Why didnt you protest? Why were you silent? Is it possible in this world to be without teeth and claws - to be such a fool?” Embarrassed, she smiled. And I could read her expression, “It is possible.” I asked her pardon for the cruel lesson and gave her the eighty dollars. She murmured her little “merci” several times and went out.
