  “Yes,” said the old man, “Yours  38  perfect but I would never trade with you. You see, every  39  represents a person  40  I have given my love. I tear out a piece of my heart and give it to them, and often they  41  me a piece of their heart that fits into the  42  place in my heart. But because the pieces aren’t exact, I have some rough edges, which I cherish, because they remind me of the love we  43 .
  “Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart  44 , and the other person hasn’t returned a  45  of his or her heart to me. These are the empty gaps—giving love is  46  a chance. Although these gaps are painful, they  47  open, reminding me of the love I have for those people too, and I hope someday they may return and fill the space I have been waiting. So now do you see what true beauty is?’’
  The young man walked up to the old man,  48  his perfect heart, and tipped a piece out. He  49  it to the old man.

  Several years ago I worked in an office, which I had a locust tree growing outside the window. It had grown into a tall tree and must have been there for a long time. The tree blocked the view and made the office seem dull, unfortunately this happened to be the room assigned to me and I was depressed by it for quite some time.
  When the first spring came, everything was green except the locust tree. Secretly, I was very happy because I had thought it had died.
  One morning when I opened the window for fresh air, I unexpectedly smelt a familiar sweet scent floating into my office but I couldn’t name it. Suddenly, I realized it was the locust tree! The tree that I thought dead was blossoming in full glory.
  From then on, I usually came to the office very early to see dew forming on the locust tree blossoms and every year was eager to see spring again.
  During summer, the green leaves provided shade protecting me from the harsh sunlight, but allowing enough light in to make it pleasant. In autumn, the leaves turned into many different colors. Its beauty touched my soul. Many times I thought to take photos but never did. Then I had to leave in a hurry. Later in life it became a great regret that I had not done so.
  Actually, many times in our lives, we think we own something, therefore we don’t cherish it. We don’t feel regretful until we lose it one day! Moreover, sometimes, we have to accept the things we don’t want and need to discover the hidden beauty to find unexpected joy!

One day I bought a house. One day --- what a day! I became a  35 , and not long after that I picked up the check for my own father. I thought then it was a milestone for me. One day, when I was a little older, I realized it was one for him too, another milestone.

To build a safer car, Japanese automakers are trying to replace the most accident-prone (易出事故的) part: the driver.
Inspired by statistics blaming human error for most accidents, Toyota and its competitors are designing “intelligent” cars that can almost drive themselves on the high way.
The systems are designed to reduce human tiredness and the mistakes that often result. This kind of support is what drivers need most in a country with some of the most crowded reads in the world. That is why it should not be surprising that Japan is leading the race to make cars smarter.
To provide a safer ride, Japanese automakers are turning to technologies like laser radar and machine vision to replace tired eyes and wandering minds.
An infrared radar unit fixed on the bumper is part of a now cruise (巡航) control method that Toyota introduced in August 1997. It’s now an optional feature on its Celsior luxury sedan that costs 70,000 yen (US$648).
The “adaptive” system tracks the car ahead, and slows down or speed up the car automatically to keep a safer distance in highway traffic. The same technology has also been used by some cars made by Toyota’s competitors.
Subaru, a type of its Legacy wagon, made its first appearance last September with Active Driving Assist, which besides adjusting cruising speed, sounds an alarm if the car goes out of its lane or makes a turn too fast. In the latter case, it down shifts gear even before the driver starts to brake.
An even smarter system is coming from Honda. Called Honda Intelligent Driver Support (HIDS), it “sees” the road through a tiny camera on the windshield and helps steer the car down the middle of lane. A computer picks out lines on the highway surface and touched the car’s steering wheel in the right direction. Honda got approval in March to start testing HIDS on the highway and says it will arrive in showrooms in the near future.
56. Why are Japanese automakers developing cars that can almost drive themselves on the highway?  (No more than 10 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
57.What is the main purpose for the automakers to design the system of the new cars?(within 15 wd)
_____________________________________________________________________________
58. When is it likely that an accident happens?  (No more than 15 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
59. If you drive the car with HIDS, what will you find?  (No more than 10 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
60. What does the underlined word “showroom” in the last paragraph mean in English?
