36.解析：notice注意到。know，understand和recognize都不合句意。
37.解析：as if似乎。根據(jù)上文“kept glancing in my direction”可判斷出這個(gè)人似乎認(rèn)識(shí)作者。since因?yàn)�；even if即使；though雖然。
38.解析：have sth.open把……打開。根據(jù)下文的內(nèi)容可判斷出這個(gè)人把報(bào)紙打開了，攤放在自己的面前。flat（使）變平；cut切（割）；fix使固定。
39.解析：pretend假裝。這個(gè)人把報(bào)紙攤放在自己面前假裝在看報(bào)紙，實(shí)際上是在監(jiān)視我。
40.解析：see看見，看到。從上文作者對(duì)這個(gè)人的注意可判斷出see是正確答案。find發(fā)現(xiàn)，表示經(jīng)過努力尋找到的事實(shí)，與上下文的內(nèi)容矛盾。guess猜測(cè)；learn了解。
41.解析：根據(jù)上文“waiting for the food I had ordered to arrive”可判斷出這時(shí)服務(wù)員給作者端來了食物。menu菜單；bill賬單；paper紙。

46.解析：下文“he came into the kitchen”表明這個(gè)人去了廚房。
47.解析：從下文可看出這個(gè)人離開了飯店。
48.解析：由于這個(gè)人對(duì)作者感到迷惑不解，也引起作者想知道他想做什么。wish后不接名詞或代詞作賓語，所以不能用what提問。
49.解析：follow跟隨。從上文知道，這個(gè)人是一位偵探，他跟隨著作者來到飯店。meet遇見；catch捉��；discover發(fā)現(xiàn)。
50.解析：定語從句was looking for修飾the man，他要尋找的人。
51.解析：根據(jù)上文 “What?” I said可判斷出作者對(duì)此感到驚訝。care關(guān)心；worry擔(dān)心；regret后悔。
52.解析：must必須。飯店老板對(duì)作者與照片上的人如此相像表示肯定。

Nick Campbell sat at the side of the road and wondered what to do next. He looked at the second-hand Harley Davidson he’d bought from a back-street garage back home in Miami at the beginning of his trip six weeks before.
For years he had dreams of crossing the United States from east to west by motorbike and he’d finally decided that it was now or never. He’d given up his job, sold his car and set off for the journey of his dreams. He’d been lucky, or so he thought, to find this old Harley Davidson and had bought it for a very reasonable price------it had cost him just $600. But five kilometers from Atlanta, he had run out of luck. The motorbike had broken down.
He pushed the bike into town and found a garage. The young mechanic told him to leave the bike overnight and come back the next day. The following morning, to his surprise, the man asked if the bike was for sale. “Certainly not,” he replied, paid his bill and hit the road.
When he got to Kansas the old machine ran out of steam again. This time Nick thought about selling it and buying something more reliable, but decided to carry on. When the bike was going well, he loved it.
However, in Denver, Colorado the bike broke down again so he decided to take it to a garage and offer it for sale. The mechanic told him to come back in the morning.
The next day, to his amazement, the man offered him $2,000. Realizing the man must be soft in the head, but clearly not short of money, Nick asked for $ 3,000. The man agreed and they signed the papers. Then the mechanic started laughing. In fact it was several minutes before he could speak and when he could he said, “That’s the worst deal you’ll ever make, boy."
He removed the seat. On the underside was the inscription (銘文):
'To Elvis, love James Dean. '
56. Harley Davidson here refers to a _________.
A. car          B. truck         C. garage          D. motorbike
57. Which of the following did Nick value most?
A. Harley Davidson.   B. His job.    C. His dream to travel.   D. His car.
58. Nick was unwilling to sell his Harley Davidson because he thought it was
A. lovely        B. valuable       C. reliable         D. old
59. The underlined word ~ hi the 6th paragraph is closest in meaning to
A. clever        B. crazy          C. honest           D. kind
60. At the end of the story, Nick must have felt very __________.
A. sorry          B. delighted        C. excited         D. moved
