Standing on the top of a church tower not far from our home in Rome, Father said to me, “Look down, Elsa. Be brave.” I gathered all my ________ and looked down. I saw the crossing of twisting, turning streets ________ to the square in the center of the village. “See, my dear,” Father said gently. “There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can’t get where you want to go by one road, try ________.”
Now I understood why I was there. Earlier that day I had begged Mother to do something about the ________ lunches that were served at school.

In the years that followed I often remembered what Father told me. And on the way to my first small success I found the road ________.

I felt so depressed that I was ________ that we would have to cancel the presentation ________ show the clothes unfinished. Then it ________ on me. Why not show the clothes unfinished?
We worked hurriedly and the showing took place as ________. Some coats had no sleeves; others had only one. Many of our clothes were only ________ made of heavy cotton cloth.

People have smoked cigarettes for a long time now. The tobacco which is used to make cigarettes was first grown in what is now part of the United States. Christopher Columbus, who discovered America, saw the Indians smoking. Soon the dried leaves were transported to Europe. In the late 1800s, the Turks made cigarettes popular.
Cigarette smoke contains at least two harmful substances, tar and nicotine. Tar, which forms as the tobacco burns, damages the lungs and therefore affects breathing. Nicotine, which is found in the leaves, causes the heart to beat faster and increases the breathing rate. Nicotine in large can kill a person by stopping a person’s breathing muscles. Smokers usually take in small amounts that the body can quickly break down.
Nicotine can make new smokers feel dizzy(頭暈) or sick to their stomachs. The heart rate for young smokers increases 2 to 3 beats per minute. Nicotine also lowers skin temperature and reduces blood flow in the legs and feet. It plays an important role in increasing smokers’ risk of heart disease and stroke.
Smoking cigarettes is dangerous. Cigarette smoking was the cause of lung cancer and several other deadly diseases.
1.Tobacco first appeared in ________.
A. AsiaB. AfricaC. EuropeD. America

For an increasing number of students at American universities, Old is suddenly in. The reason is obvious: the graying of America means jobs, coupled with the aging of the baby-boom generation, a longer life span means that the nation's elderly population is bound to expand significantly over the next 50 years. By 2050, 25 percent of all Americans will be older than 65, up from 14 percent in 1995. The change poses profound questions for government and society, of course. But it also creates career opportunities in medicine and health professions, and in law and business as well. "In addition to the doctors, we're going to need more sociologists, biologists, urban planners and specialized lawyers," says Professor Edward Schneider of the University of Southern California's (USC) School of Gerontology (老年學(xué)).
Lawyers can specialize in "elder law," which covers everything from trusts and estates to nursing-home abuse and age discrimination (歧視). Businessmen see huge opportunities in the elder market because the baby boomers, 74 million strong, are likely to be the wealthiest group of retirees in human history. "Any student who combines an expert knowledge in gerontology with, say, an MBA or law degree will have a license to print money," one professor says.
Margarite Santos is a 21-year-old senior at USC. She began college as a biology major but found she was "really bored with bacteria." So she took a class in gerontology and discovered that she liked it. She says, "I did volunteer work in retirement homes and it was very satisfying."
1."...Old is suddenly in" (Line 1, Para. 1) most probably means "________".
A. America has suddenly become a nation of old people
B. gerontology has suddenly become popular
C. more elderly professors are found on American campuses
D. American colleges have realized the need of enrolling older students
2.With the aging of America, lawyers can benefit ________.
A. from the adoption of the "elder law"
B. from giving special services to the elderly
C. by enriching their professional knowledge
D. by winning the trust of the elderly to promote their own interests
3.Why can businessmen make money in the emerging elder market?
A. Retirees are more generous in spending money.
B. They can employ more gerontologists.
C. The elderly possess an enormous purchasing power.
D. There are more elderly people working than before.
4.Who can make big money in the new century according to the passage?
A. Retirees who are business-minded.
B. The volunteer workers in retirement homes.
C. College graduates with an MBA or law degree.
D. Professionals with a good knowledge of gerontology.
5.It can be seen from the passage that the expansion of America's elderly population ________.
A. will provide good job opportunities in many areas
B. will place an unbearable burden on society
C. may lead to nursing home abuse and age discrimination
D. will create new fields of study in universities
