9．For many of us，cartoon strips are simply one of our pastimes．The popular Japanese manga（漫畫） provides us with an escape from reality into a world of fantasy，adventure and romance．With much less text and pictures running for pages，it fits perfectly into today's fast，throwing away city lifestyle．
But Tsai Chih-chung，a famous Taiwanese illustrator （漫畫家），doesn't agree．He believes cartoons can be a bridge connecting traditional Chinese culture and wisdom with the modern  world in a much wittier and more acceptable way．
He has interpreted Lao Zi，Confucius，Mencius，Zhuang Zi and Sun Zi and made their works accessible to a global audience．He has also produced two books about Zen （禪宗），introducing oriental philosophy．His cartoons are humorous yet full of wisdom and are admired as an easy way to learn Chinese classics．
After avoiding the public for ten years，Tsai made a comeback in late April with seven new works．But does his age，61，work as a gap between him and his young readers？Tsai doesn't think so．The topics he has covered range from philosophy in a time of individuality to the learning and memorizing techniques used at school．"Every child is a genius and has the potential beyond his own imagination，"he said．
If popular Japanese manga is purely for entertainment，Tsai's work，to a large extent，is to light the power of thinking in a light-hearted way．Tsai uses differenr forms of water to refer to people．In his eyes some people are like an ocean，some are like vapor，while others may be ice or
rain．But in essence（本質(zhì)上）they share a similarity-human being's forever chasing for the true and the good．"The person who thinks over life issues is not necessarily a scholar or a philosopher，"he said．"I've dedicated my whole life to thinking and individual freedom，not making a living．"

61．What is the main idea of the first paragraph in the passage？D
A．Japanese manga is a simple way of killing time．
B．What Japanese manga is mainly about．
C．Japanese manga presents a world of fantasy，adventure and romance．
D．Why Japanese manga is so popular．
62．The underlined word"it"in paragraph l refers toB．
A．much less text
B．Japanese manga
C．pictures running for pages
D．a(chǎn)n escape from reality
63．In Tsai Chih-chung's opinion，cartoonB．
A．connects traditional Chinese culture and wisdom
B．helps connect Chinese classics with modern world
C．uses a wiser and acceptable way to draw cartoons
D．builds up a bridge between cartoons and illustration
64．Compared to Japanese manga，Tsai's works areC．
A．mainly designed for a pure time killer for all
B．more popular with young readers in China now
C．to inspire people to think in a cheerful way
D．much more interesting and instructive
65．According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE about Tsai Chih-chung？A
A．He values more thinking and personal freedom than making a living．
B．He says that one who thinks over life is either a scholar or a philosopher．
C．He thinks some people are like ocean，some like vapor，while others like ice cream．
D．Tsai devoted his life to creating cartoons in order to make money．

64     C  從"If popular Japanese manga is purely for entertainment，Tsai's work，to a large extent，is to light the power of thinking in a light-hearted way"可知C日本漫畫純屬娛樂的話，那么蔡的作品能點亮人思考的力量，故選C．
66    A   從"I've dedicated my whole life to thinking and individual freedom，not making a living．"一句可以看出，漫畫家蔡志忠更多的是崇尚理想和自由．故選A．

14．I took the bus to work for many years．No one knew each other； the passengers all sat there sleepily in the morning．The bus was cheerless and silent．
One of the passengers was a small gray-haired man who took the bus to the center for senior citizens every morning．No one ever paid very much attention to him．
One July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled．The driver nodded guardedly（戒備地）．The rest of us were silent．
The next day，the old man boarded with a big smile and said in a loud voice："A very good morning to you all!"Some of us looked up，amazed，and murmured"Good Morning"in reply．
The following weeks，our friend was dressed in a nice old suit and tie．His thin hair had been carefully combed．He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other．
One morning he even had a bunch of wild flowers in his hand．The driver turned around smiling and asked："Have you got yourself a girlfriend，Charlie？"We never got to know if his name really was"Charlie"，but he nodded shyly and said yes．The other passengers whistled and clapped at him．Charlie waved the flowers before he sat down on his seat．
Every morning after that Charlie always brought flowers．Some passengers also brought flowers for him．The bus became a happy place．
Then，one morning，as autumn was closing in，Charlie wasn't waiting at his usual stop．When he wasn't there the next day and the day after that，we started wondering if he was sick or-hopefully-on holiday somewhere．

The old gentle man was fine，but one of his close friends had died over the weekend．How silent we were the rest of the way to work．
The next Monday Charlie was waiting at the stop，stooping （彎腰） a bit more，a little bit more gray，and without a tie．Inside the bus was silent．Even though no one had talked about it，all of us sat there silently，our eyes filled with tears and a bunch of wild flowers in our hands．
