Perhaps I can get back to England one day. So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree, and then began to make a long hole in it. It was hard work, but about six months later, I had a very fine canoe(独木舟).Next, I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was! Why didnt I think carefully before I began to work? Of course, the canoe was too heavy. I couldnt move it! I pulled and pushed and tried everything, but it didnt move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that. In my sixth year on the island, I did make myself a smaller canoe, but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey, and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now, and I was just happy to be alive. A year or two later, I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island. I also built myself a second house there, and so I had two homes. I kept food and tools at both of my houses, and also wild goats (山羊).There were many goats on the island, and I made fields with high fences to keep them in. They learned to take food from me, and soon I had goats milk to drink every day. I also worked hard in my corn(玉米)fields. And so, many years went by.51 .Where might the man in the story come from? A. America. B. China. C. England. D. Australia.52. Why was the man unhappy for a long time? A. He was alone on the island. B. He couldnt make a boat by himself. C. The canoe he made was too heavy to move. D. The canoe was too small for a long journey.53. This story is mainly about how the man .

Living on the farm without neighbors, Kitty has become dependent(依赖的)on me. After lunch, we drove to the camp place. After we got out of the car, we were introduced(介绍)to the other children. Kitty followed me closely, holding my hand all the time. I need you for a few more minutes, she said to me, tears in her eyes. I pulled away and walked up to a camp worker. Excuse me, I said loudly, Id like to introduce you to my daughter. Maybe you could help her meet a few of these children. He came over to talk to Kitty and I kissed her face. Then we all left before Kitty found we had left. On my way home, I felt a piece of my soul(灵魂)had been taken away from my body. Tears came down my face.
