I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together inside the storm door on the top step.“Any old papers, lady?” asked one of them.I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals, wet with heavy snow.“Come in and Ill make you a cup of hot cocoa.”They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread with jam to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started again on my household budget.The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich?”I looked at my shabby slipcovers. The girl put her cup back in its saucer carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” Her voice was hungry with a need that no amount of food could supply. They left after that, holding their bundles of papers against the wind. They hadnt said “Thank you.” They didnt need to. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful. Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.I tasted the potatoes and stirred the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a good steady jobthese matched, too.I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy prints of small sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.56.

Its the highest waterfall in the world, deep in the jungles of Venezuela. Few people have ever seen Angel Falls. Its very hard to get there. If you went by land, you would have to travel for weeks through thick jungles. If you went by plane from Caracas, a city on the northern coast, it would take about four hours.What would it be like to take a trip by plane from Caracas to the falls? For hundreds of miles you would fly southeast over green plains. Then the land would become higher and you see mountains with forests. Soon the land would level out to high plateaus(高原). Finally, you would fly toward a deep valley steep, rocky sides.Suddenly you would see a silver thread in the distance. Then as your plane flew closer, you would see the waterfall more clearly. You would see water falling over half a mile straight down the cliff. It is a sight you would never forget.No one knew about this high waterfall until 1930. In that year James Angel, an American pilot flew over the areas. As he was flying over the mountains and valleys, he suddenly saw a waterfall. It was an unforgettable sight, the water seemed to be dropping straight out of the clouds.In 1941 an American expedition explored and measured the falls. From the top to the bottom, the water falls more than 3,200 feet. These falls are over 1 000 feet higher than any other falls in the world.60. Which of the following is NOT true?A.

The best headline for this passage would be .A. A Trip to Angel FallsB. An Unforgettable SightC. Angel FallsD. Waterfalls in the WorldCWhen I was small and my grandmother died, I couldnt understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and according to the study it is found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendly and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we dont even know were very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.Just as crying can be healthy, not crying-holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering-can be bad for physical health, studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, dont fight it. Its a natural-and healthy-emotional response.64. Why didnt the author cry when her grandmother died?A.Because her father did not want her to feel too sad.B.Because she did not love her grandmother.C.Because she was too shy to cry at that time.D.The author doesnt give the explanation.65. It can be inferred from the text that .A.there are two ways to keep healthyB.crying does more good to health than laughingC.crying and laughing play the same rolesD.emotional health has a close relationship to physical health66. According to the author, which of the following statements is true?A.Crying is the best way to get help from others.B.Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.C.We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.D.We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.67. What might be the most suitable title for the text?A.Power of TearsB. How to Keep HealthyC.Why We CryD.
