The accused person was taken into the arena and asked to open one . Behind one door was a hungry tiger , while behind the other was a lady chosen especially for him . To this lady he would be immediately married, in honor of his innocence.The king had a beautiful daughter whom he loved very much , and she secretly loved a young commoner（平民）.When the king discovered their relationship , the man was immediately put in prison, and a day was set for him to enter the arena.The princess knew behind which door stood the tiger, and behind which a lady.

He turned, and with a firm, quick step he walked across the empty space to the door on the right and opened it.Now, the point of the story is this: Did the tiger come out of that door, or did the lady? The more we think about this question, the harder it is to answer. It involves a study of the human heart.

And when he was 15 he signed his schoolmates up to start a baby-sitting circle.Now 20, third-year Cambridge University student, Peter Blackburn is managing director of a company with a 30,000 plan. And he thinks it will make more than $15,000 by next summer.He set up Peter Blackborn Ltd last year to bring out a new, colour term-planner that now students all over the UK are using.“I felt that most of the planners going around were pretty unimaginative,” he says, “I believed that I could do a better job and decided to have a go”.Blackburn admits that he is putting far more effort into business than his computer studies course at university. While fellow students are out with their friends, he keeps in touch with his business office in Lancashire by movable phone.

She had one big ambitionto play the drums in a band. But one big problem lay in her way. To be good enough to play in a band, Brenda had to practice a lot, but she lived next-door to a lot of old people. Many of them are sick. She knew that the sound of beating drums would really get on their nerves. So, she had tried playing in the strangest places: a basement, a kitchen, and even in a shower. But there was always someone it would annoy.One day, while watching a science documentary on TV, she heard that sound cannot travel in space, because theres no air. At that moment, Brenda Bongos decided to become a sort of musical astronaut.With the help of a lot of time, books and work, Brenda built a space bubble. This was a big glass ball connected to a machine which sucked out all the air inside. All that would be left inside was a drum kit（成套设备） and a chair. Brenda got into the space suit she had made, entered the bubble, turned on the machine, and played those drums like a wild child.It wasnt long before Brenda Bongos came very famous. Many people came to see her play in her space bubble. Shortly afterwards she came out of the bubble and started giving concerts. Her fame spread so much that the government suggested that she be part of a unique space journey. Finally, Brenda was a real musical astronaut, and had gone far beyond her first ambition of playing drums in a band.Years later, when asked how she had achieved all this, she thought for a moment, and said: If those old people next door hadnt mattered so much to me, I wouldnt have found a solution, and none of this would have ever happened.66. Why did Brenda try to play in the strangest places?A. Because she didnt want others to hear her play.B. Because she didnt mean to disturb others.C. Because she didnt have her own room.D. Because she didnt like her neighbors.67. Brenda started to give concerts _.A. after she practiced in her space bubbleB. when she became part of the unique space journeyC. after she became a real musical astronautD. when people came to see her in the space bubble68. Brenda became famous because _.A. she was good at music and scienceB. she became a real musical astronautC. she invented a special way of practiceD. she played well and had a talent69.

I have been a boarder（寄宿生） with the Carsons for more than a year and a half.The Carsons live in their own house, which has four bedrooms including the one in the basement（底层） which I live in. Judy does all the work in the house and Andrew is responsible for the work in the garden. When they go out in they evening, they often ask me to look after their children.Judys parents, Mr. and Mrs. Morris, lived in another city. Judy was their only child and naturally they doted on（溺爱）Judys children. They often sent the children presents.Last April Mr. Morris died. Now that Mrs. Morris was quite alone, I expected that Judy would want her to come and live with them. One day, Margaret, Judys daughter, told me grandma was coming to live with them and her daddy and mummy would want my room back. The news didnt surprise me and the next day I went to Judy and asked her about it. I said I couldnt think of living in their basement room any longer if it was needed for Mrs. Morris. Judy seemed surprised at first. Then she told me there was no deed for me to move, for they hadnt yet come to any decision about her mother coming to live with them. “Naturally Im worried about my mother. She has been in poor health.” She smiled sadly and added. “To be honest, Andre
