My husband hasn’t stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It is funny now but it wasn’t at that time.
Last Friday, after doing all family   31    in town, I wanted a rest   32    catching the train, so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the    33   coffee shop—that cheap, self–service place with long    34    to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to   35    a place, and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next   36    . It was one of those wild-looking youngsters,   37    dark glasses and worn clothes, and    38   colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did    39    me was that he had started to eat my chocolate.
Naturally, I was annoyed. However, to avoid    40    —and really I was rather   41   
about him, I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee, and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me   42    , then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could   43     believe it. Still I didn’t dare to   44   an argument. When he took a    45    piece, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, “Well, I shall have the last piece”. And I got it.
The boy    46    me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out,” This   47    is crazy.” Everyone stared. That was embarrassing(令人难堪的)enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to   48   . My face went red—as red as his hair—when I    49    I’d made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate that he had been taking. There was mine, unopened, just    50    my newspaper.

A poor traveller stopped under the tree to eat the boiled rice and vegetables which he had brought with him. A few metres away, there was a small shop by the side of the road where a woman was frying (油炸)fish and selling it to travelers. The woman watched the poor traveler carefully, and when he finished his food and began to go, she shouted rudely, “You haven’t paid me for the fried fish!”
“But I have not had any fried fish!” he said.
“But everyone can see that you enjoyed the smell of my fried fish with your rice and vegetables,” said the woman, “If you had not smelled the fish, your meal would not have been so pleasant!”
Soon a crowd collected, and although they supported the poor traveler, they had to admit that wind was blowing from the shop to the place where he had eaten, and that it had carried the smell of the fried fish to him.
Finally, the woman took the poor traveler to a judge, who said, “The woman says that the traveler ate his meal with the smell of her fried fish. The traveler agrees that the wind was blowing from the woman’s shop to the place where he ate his rice and vegetables, and that it carried the smell of her fried fish to his nose while he was eating, so he must pay for it. What does your fried fish cost?” he asked the woman.
“Twenty-five cents a plate,” she answered, delighted.
“Then go outside together,” said the judge. “There the traveler must hold up a twenty-five-cent piece so that its shadow(影子)falls on the woman’s hand. The price of the smell of a plate of fried fish is the shadow of twenty-five cents.”
51. The traveler refused to pay the woman for the fried fish because       .
A. he was poor                                                 B. he was rude
C. he was supported by a crowd                  D. he hadn’t eaten her fried fish at all

Have you ever heard the story of the four-minute miles? Many years ago, people believed that it was impossible for a human being to run a mile in less than four minutes until Roger Banister proved it wrong in 1954.
What happens if you put an animal in a pond? Any animal, big or small, will swim its way through. What happens when someone, who doesn’t know how to swim, falls in deep water? They drown. If an animal who has not learnt swimming could escape by swimming, why not you? Because you believe you will drown while the animal doesn’t.
Have you ever wondered why the letters are organized in a particular order on your keyboard? You might have thought it is to increase the typing speed. Most people never questioned it.

It was the second day of the three-day Golden Beach Music Festival on Huangdao Peninsula, west of Qingdao, one of China"s most renowned coastal tourist cities. Lines of orange beach umbrellas stood out along the coastline against the big blue sea and sunny sky. Brightly colored tents dotted Golden Beach, which is said to be the best beach in China with the longest stretch of untainted silver sand.
With one hour to go before the start of the show on September 13, Liu Siyuan, one of the festival"s chief promoters, was sitting alone at the sound-mixing station with his head buried in a box lunch. His cellphone, which was close at hand, kept ringing from time to time and Liu picked it up to answer all kinds of questions and give orders on everything from booking train tickets to disposing of trash.. “I"m so busy these days, since I have to arrange everything for the festival. How would I know how to deal with the garbage on the beach?” he said.
But that didn"t matter a bit to festival goers. On the first day, more than 1,000 music fans, local residents and tourists gathered at Golden Beach to enjoy dynamic music mixed with local beer, sea breeze and sunshine.
“This is the most unforgettable music festival I"ve ever attended,” said Mu Er, a music fan and magazine editor who came all the way from Shanghai especially for the beach festival. Mu has been to many other domestic music festivals, including those held on grassland and in city parks.
“Nothing can compare to the beach music experience, which is so extraordinary, relaxing and so much fun,” she said, while wandering around a market where vendors sold postcards, CDs, hats, masks, rock-themed T-shirts and other small handmade products.
Festival goers turned the beach into a giant playground—playing football, swimming, riding motorcycles, flying kites, or just simply sitting on the beach and drinking beer. "(The beach is) damn awesome!" said Joe, a musician from Wales who plays bass with a local five-piece rock band called The Dama Llamas, as he was about to go on stage.
60. Mu Er, a music fan and magazine editor, came to Golden Beach            
A. to see the best beach                  B. to be on holiday
C. to play his own music                D. to attend the music festival
61. Mu Er felt the most interested in        
A. buying postcards                   B. wandering around
C. experiencing the beach music         D. selling hats and T-shirts
62. It can be inferred that festival goers         
A. have a lot of fun on the beach       B. have built a giant playground
C. play football every day             D. sit and drink free beer every day

An earthquake is caused by a sudden slip on a fault, or fracture, in the earth"s surface. The tectonic plates on the surface are always slowly moving, but they get stuck at their edges because of friction. When the stress on the edge overcomes the friction, there is an earthquake that releases energy in waves that travel through the earth"s crust and create the shaking we feel.
An earthquake"s degree is a measured value of its size and is the same no matter where you are, or how strong or weak the shaking was in different locations. An earthquake"s intensity is a measure of the shaking it creates, and varies with location.
A degree of 8 or higher defines a “great” earthquake; 7 to 7.9 is considered “major”; 6 to 6.9 is “strong”;5 to 5.9 is “moderate”; 4 to 4.9 is “light”; 3 to 3.9 is "minor"; and less than 3 is “micro.”
Experts have said that a million people died in earthquakes in the 20th century ­and that this century might see 10 times as many deaths, with as many as a million killed in a single quake. That is, unless major efforts are made to fortify the world’s growing cities, which are expected to be homes to billions of added residents.
Even though the rate of earthquakes over time seems to be more or less unchanging, the world"s population explosion means that more people are moving into quake zones, which are often near coasts. The result, the experts say, is the prospect of continuing trauma.
“It is inevitable,” Klaus H. Jacob, an earthquake expert at Lamont-Doherty, the earth sciences research center of Columbia University, said at the end of the last century. “More and more people, and more and more buildings, are  at stake  . As the world gets more populous and richer, allowing a more built-up environment, higher buildings and all the infrastructure that supports our civilization, communications and the like, the risk goes up.”
63. We can feel the earthquake because               
A. the plates are always moving.     
B. the stress overcomes the friction.
C. the plates get stuck.  
D. the waves in which energy is released travel through the earth’s crust.
64. a degree of 8.2 is thought             
A. a  “moderate” earthquake.         B. a “major” earthquake .
C. a “strong” earthquake.             D. a “great” earthquake.
65.  Experts have said that                
A. a billion people died in earthquakes in the 20th century.
B. ten times as many deaths will be seen by this century.
C. a million people will be killed in a single earthquake this century.
D. if we don’t take measures, something worse may happen.
66. The underlined expression probably means           .
A. endangered       B. strong         C. safe        D. weak
