After eighteen months of hard work by more than 100volunteers,the Bentwood Truck Museum is ready to open.The old factory had been scheduled to be destroyed.When Roger Haygood heard about the plan to tear down the building,he bought it so that he could store his collection of old trucks there.Then he had the idea of turning the building into a truck museum.

18.I found the imagination of becoming a grandmother somewhat discouraging.I was younger than I thought a grandmother should be when I got the news that I was going to become one myself.I admit,it was not a role that I was emotionally ready to accept.I had been a young mother,and had certainly hoped my daughter would not face that same challenge.I remarried when she was a teenager,and then had two more children.On getting the news that she was expecting,I remember thinking"What do I know about being a grandmother?-I haven't even finished raising my own kids yet!"I don't like to be unprepared,so I read a few books about grandparenting.That gave me a little help,but I was still uncertain.I thought about other grandmothers I knew,and got a few ideas I liked and a few more that I didn't.But I couldn't quite figure out what kind of grandmother I wanted to be.Then I thought about my own grandmother,Granny,as she's known by most people,and I knew I had the answer.
I didn't realize it until that moment,but my own grandmother was the example for the kind of grandmother I wanted to be.I am fortunate that I got to spend a lot of time with my grandparents when I was a little kid.Here's what I learned from my Granny:
Grandmothers always have a cookie jar.For my entire life,Granny always had a cookie jar full of cookies.When I was a little tiny girl,just at eye level with the counter,Granny would get the cookie jar down for me.When I was a little older I learned how to pull the chair over so I could reach.As I got taller,if I really stretched,I could reach the cookie jar with my finger tips and move it close enough to get it down off the counter to find out what kind of treat was inside.Always the first thing I did when I went to Granny's house was check the cookie jar and there were always cookies in it.Many years later,I'll drive my own children to Granny's house and the first thing Pd do is get us all a cookie.
So grandmothers must have a cookie jar and on my granddaughte's first Christmas,my daughter bought me my own cookie jar.She said when they came to see me,her daughter would find the treat the way she did and I did.

19.The young boy was sitting on the ground in the refugee(難民)camp playing with an empty tin.Other children were standing around watching him with envious(嫉妒的) eyes.
Envy?Of an empty tin?
This tin was indeed no worthless piece of trash-it was a splendid truck,complete with wheels and grille(鐵柵) and floor.The vehicle even had remote control,a frayed piece of string from the"engine"to the hand of the owner.
The tin had lost all its original markings.But its first load had probably been sardines(沙丁魚(yú)).Later the tin had been left with other rubbish behind the refugee camp clinic,and the boy had found it on one of his daily expeditions (探險(xiǎn))into the"big world".
For thousands of refugee children,a tin 1ike this rates high on their list of wants.It can be used for many purposes,as jewellery(珠寶),as a toy,for drinking or as a medicine box.
Many refugee children would consider it the happiest day of their lives if they received a handful of marbles(彈珠) as a present.
They dream of gifts which children in developed countries take for granted.Maybe a book to read,or a pencil and an exercise book of their very own.
Their imagination can create toys,but it cannot create books.Someone else must provide them.A more costly and valuable gift they cannot imagine.

32.How do you think the young boy may feel when he gets something to read?C
A.depressed        B.frustrated         C.excited           D.frightened
33.Other children envied the young boy because the boyA.
A.had something to play with    B.got some sardines to eat
C.received a handful of marbles D.had a real truck toy
34.What is implied in the last paragraph of the text?D
A.The society should donate some toys for the refugee children.
B.The refugee children are more imaginative rather than creative.
C.The refugee children are more creative rather than imaginative
D.The society should offer the refugee children things for study.

9.When it comes to success in business and success in life,there are few qualities as important as confidence.
People naturally have different levels of confidence.Some have a higher level of confidence than others do,but even those whose confidence is lacking can leam to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals.Increasing self confidence is one of the most common reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals.
One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace. We all know how difficult it can be,for instance,to ask the boss for a raise.This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities.After all,if you are unsure about your own abilities,how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do?
Even if you are not asking for that big raise,having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success.If you are certain of your abilities,chances are that those around you,whether they are your coworkers,your colleagues or your superiors,will see that confidence,and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do.
Being thought of as the person to go to,and being seen as an expert in your chosen field,is naturally very important to success on the job.If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice,you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing.After all,if you are a recognized expert at the office,you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team.
Having a high level of confidence,after all,does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve.Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence.
63.What is the passage mainly about?B
A.The influence of confidence on one's life.
B.The importance of confidence to success.
C.The difference of people's confidence.
D.The judgment on one's confidence.
64.Psychologists and other professionals can offer help to thoseA
A.who think their goals are hard to reach
B.who expect to give guidance to others
C.who want to ask the boss for a raise
D.who dream to be recognized experts
65.What does the underlined word"indispensable"in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A
A.important                       
B.a(chǎn)ttractive          
C.outgoing          
D.energetic
66.What message does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?D
A.To overlook one's disadvantages.
B.To make full use of one's advantages.
C.To have great confidence in one's abilities.
D.To make objective evaluations of one's abilities.
