Ahead，in the distance，stood t he Brooklyn Bridge．I'd come to this place and studied the bridge a million times．And on every one of those times，I was taken by what I'd come to call Brooklyn Belle．I never got tired of looking out at Belle，who carried all kinds of people to all kinds of places，day after day．
On a cloudless night like this one，she was a sight like no other sight in the whole city．She was so beautiful．My heart was full of energy．I reached into my jacket pocket and pulled out my pencil．I looked through my sketchbook （速寫簿）．I'd drawn Belle in the high-noon light，on snowy days，and on early mornings．My favorite sketches were those of Belle during rush hour．
Tonight I sketched slowly at first，then faster．I was proud of my drawings-I liked to think of them as portraits （肖像），but each page showed a sad truth about Belle：She had become old．She was some forty years older than Mama Lil．She should be as lovely as she had been．That bridge project needed me，and I needed it．

18．It was Mother's Day morning last year and I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son，Tenyon．As we were leaving，we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance（入口）and had hit her head on the concrete（混凝土）．Her husband was with her，but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock．
Walking towards the scene，Tenyson became very upset（沮喪的） about what had happened to the couple．He said to me，"Mum，it's not much fun falling over in front of everyone．"
At the front of the supermarket，a charity（慈善） group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds（籌集善款）．Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower．"It will make her fel better，"he said．I was amazed that he'd come up with such a sweet idea．So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up（讓…高興）．"Just take it，"she replied．"I can't take your money for such a wonderful gesture．"

At that，the old man started crying and said，"Thank you so much，you have a wonderful son．Happy Mother's Day to you．"
The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower，telling her who it was from．Though badly hurt and shaken，the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile．
29．What dose the author intend to tell us？D

6．The greatest contribution to civilization in the century may well be the air-conditioning-and American leads just as amazing is the speed with which this situation came to be．Air-conditioning began to spread in industries as a production aid during World WarⅡ．Today most Americans need to take air-conditioning for granted to homes，offices，factories，theatres，shops，studios，schools，hotels，and restaurants，and we can see it almost everywhere in today's America．
But not everybody is aware that high cost and easy comfort are merely two of the effects of the vast cooling of American．In fact，air conditioning has substantially altered the country's character and customs．
Many of the byproducts are so conspicuous（顯而易見的） that they are scarcely noticed．To begin with，air-conditioning transformed the face of America by making possible those glassy，boxy，sealed-in skyscrapers．It has been indispensable，no less，to the functioning of sensitive advanced computers，whose high operating temperatures require that they be constantly cooled…
It has，at will，forced families into going back into families with closed doors and shut windows to improve the effects of the air-conditioning，reducing the interactions of neighborhood life．I think there is no need explaining the seriousness of this consequence（后果）．It is really surprising that the public's often noted withdrawal into self-pursuit and privacy has kept in pace with the historic spread of air-conditioning．Though science has little studied how habitual air-conditioning affects mind and body，some medical experts suggest that，like other technical avoidance of natural changes in climate，air-conditioning may damage the human capacity to adapt to stress．If so，air-conditioning is only like many other greatly useful technical developments that liberate（解放） man from nature by increasing his productivity and power in some way-while indirectly weakening him in others．

32．According to this passage，which of the following played a role in the forming of the unique character of U．S．？B
A．Its advanced computerized civilization．
B．Its excessive use of air-conditioning．
C．Its public's retreating into self-pursuit．
D．Its greatest contribution to human civilization．
33．According to the author，the chief consequence brought about by the wide application of air-conditioning isB．
A．the loss of human capacity to adapt to changes in climate
B．the reduction of social communications of neighborhood life
C．the active life style of all its users
D．the decreased human production and power
34．The tone of this passage reveals that air-conditioningD．
A．has little effect on its users
B．has more effect on body than on mind
C．brings only damage to its users
D．does harm as well as good to its users
35．What is the author's overall attitude towards air-conditioning？C
A．Neutral              B．Objective
C．Critical             D．Compromising．

10．Money MattersParents should help their children understand money．（36）G So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things，candy or toys，for example．
The basic function of money
Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services．It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have．If he wants to have a toy，give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier（收銀員）．（37）F When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money，you can start explaining more complex ways of using money．
Money lessons
Approach money lessons with openness and honesty．（38）D If you must say no to a child's request to spend money，explain，"You have enough toy trucks for now．"Or，if the request is for many different things，say，"You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy．"
（39）A
Begin at the grocery store．Pick out two similar brands of a product---a name-brand butter and a generic （無商標產(chǎn)品），for example．You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money．（40）CIf he chooses the cheaper brand，allow him to make another purchase with the money saved．Later，you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases．

A．Wise decisions
B．The value of money
C．Permit the child to choose between them．
D．Tell your child why he can-or cannot---have certain things．
E．Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you
F．Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store．
G．The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest．
