I didnt want to _37_ her request, so we headed towards the only _38_ in our town. When we arrived, the hill was crowded with people. We found an open spot next to a thin man and his three-year-old son. The boy was already lying in the sled (雪橇), _39_ to be launched. “Come on, Daddy!” he called. The man looked over at me. “Okay if we go _40_?” he asked.“Sure. Looks like your son is ready to go,” I said. With that, he gave the boy a huge _41_, and off he flew! And the father ran after his son at full speed. “He must be afraid that his son is going to _42_ somebody,” I said to Erica. “Wed better be _43_, too.”Then we also skied down the hill at a great speed. As we returned to the top, I noticed that the man was _44_ his son, who was still lying in the sled, back up to the summit. When we reached the top, the boy was ready to play again. Again, the father _45_ him down the hill, and then pulled both the boy and the sled back up. The little boy was terribly spoilt by his father, I thought. _46_ he was small, the child could pull his own sled up the hill once in a while. This _47_ went on for more than an hour, but the man never _48_, and he was very happy instead. Finally, I could _49_ it no longer. I called to him, “You have tremendous _50_!”The man smiled and said, “He has cerebral palsy (脑瘫). He cant walk. ”I was dumbstruck (惊呆的). It had all seemed so happy, so _51_, that it never occurred to me that the child might be _52_. Although I didnt know the mans name, I told the _53_ in my newspaper column.

But he brought courage and hope to people around the world.Nkosi Johnson, who died last June, is remembered today as an AIDS fighter. This young boy challenged his governments AIDS policies and millions of South Africans in the fight against the disease.Johnson was the longest survivor born HIV positive.He survived with this deadly disease for 12 years before it claimed his life.At first, Johnson was expected to live for nine months when his foster mother, Gail Johnson took him in at the age of two. She now runs Nkosis Haven across town from her house in Melville. The Haven is home to 20 children living with HIV or AIDS, and 11 of their mothers.Johnson attracted the worlds attention and stole the hearts of thousands of people across the world at the 13th International AIDS Conference in Durban in July 2000. He stood in front of a large audience including South African President Thabo Mbeki. He told them that he wanted AZT, a drug used to treat AIDS patients, to be given to HIV-positive pregnant（怀孕的） women to prevent the disease being passed on to their unborn babies. He received a loud cheer at the end of his speech.Johnsons speech was broadcast live across the world. With views beyond his age and even a sense of humor, Johnson soon became an international sign of the fight against AIDS and HIV.56The main idea in paragraphs 5 and 6 is _.AJohnson attracted the worlds attentionBJohnson stood in front of South African President Thabo MbekiCJohnson wanted AZT to treat AIDS pregnant womenDJohnson helped prevent the disease being passed on to an unborn baby57The AIDS child gave the speech in order to _.Asteal the hearts of thousands of people Bbe an AIDS fighterCget more help from the world Dfight against the government58From the passage we can infer that _.Athe governments AIDS policies have to be improvedBthe government did nothing to help those with HIV positiveCthe boys speech changed the governments policiesDno one lived longer than the boy59The best title for this passage is .AThe Sad Story of an AIDS Child.BThe Courage of an AIDS ChildCAIDS, a Deadly DiseaseDA Hero in South AfricaBIdeas about polite behavior are different from one culture to another. Some societies, such as America and Australia, for example, are mobile and very open. People here change jobs and move house quite often. As a result, they have a lot of relationships that often last only a short time, and they need to get to know people quickly. So its normal to have friendly conversations with people that they have just met, and you can talk about things that other cultures would regard as personal. On the other hand，there are more crowded and less mobile societies where long term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person, for example, will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger from a less mobile society puts it, its no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you dont want to answer.Cross-cultural differences arent just a problem for travelers, but also for the flights that carry them. All flights want to provide the best service, but ideas about good service are different from place to place. This can be seen most clearly in the way that problems are dealt with.Some societies have “universalist” cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way. “Particularist”societies, on the other hand, also have rules, but they are less important than the societys unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.This difference can cause problems. A traveler from a particularist society, India, is checking in for a flight in Germany, a country which has a universalist culture. The Indian traveler has two much luggage, but he explains that he has been away from home for a long time and the suitcases are full of presents for his family. He expects that the check in official will understand his problem and will change the rules for him. The check in official explains that if he was allowed to have too much luggage, it wouldnt be fair to the other passengers. But the traveler thinks this is unfair, because the other passengers dont have his problem.60. Often moving from one place to another makes people like Americans and Australians .Alike traveling better Beasy to communicate withCdifficult to make real friends Dhave a longterm relationship with their neighbors61. People like Malaysians prefer to associate with those _.Awho will tell them everything of their own Bwho want to do business with themCthey know quite well Dwho are good at talking62. A person from a less mobile society will feel it _ when a stranger keeps talking to him or her, and asking him or her questions.Aboring Bfriendly Cnormal Drough63. The writer of the passage thinks that the Indian and the German have different ideas about rules because of different _.Ainterests Bhabits and customs Ccultures Dways of lifeCThe idea of “law” exists in every culture. All societies have some kind of law to keep order and to control the interactions of people with those around them. The laws of any culture tell people three things: what they can do (their right), what they must do (their duties), and what they may not do. In addition, there are usually specific types of punishment for tho
