In 1932, my father had to declare bankruptcy (破產(chǎn)). He was ashamed of it, but it came about because of his  36  heart.

He had been in the milk business and every day he  37  milk to many homes. His route（線路）included many people  38  worked at the local steel company. Dad  39  delivering milk even when his customers were unable to  40  him.

After the bankruptcy, he started selling hamburgers from a  41  building he and his brothers had built. That was the  42  of the Poplar Inn, named  43   the row of poplar trees（楊樹）nearby. My mother was a good cook, and soon many dishes were  44  to the menu. Later, another two buildings were built and the Poplar Inn   45   much larger.

On Saturdays, Mother would spend the whole day in the kitchen  46  for parties. During dinner, my sister Phyllis and I helped  47  customers. Phyllis would dance, and I would sing the latest songs. Square dances were  48   then and many adults would dance. As the evening went  49 , and children became bored with watching their parents  50 , they were often taken to our bedrooms.

Since Dad had a big heart, it was not  51  for him to help others without asking for payment. Every time my father made a loan (借出的貸款), he  52  out a card, but he never tried to  53  those debts. Finally, he destroyed the cards — therefore there were no  54  at all.

The Poplar Inn was  55  around 1953 to make way for a new highway. But if I stood there now, instead of hearing traffic, I think I’d hear music and the sound of people laughing.

Twenty–six years after a terrible bicycle accident which left her in a coma(昏迷) for two months and with permanent brain injuries, Barbara Buchan performs many actions more slowly than others. But on September 10 in Beijing, Buchan, at 52, the oldest member of the United States Paralympic team, broke the record and won the gold medal for her disability class in the individual 3,000–meter cycling pursuit.

“You can be very upset at the world and have everyone take care of you.” Buchan said by telephone from Beijing, “or get back on your feet again.”

    Buchan first dreamed of Olympic gold at age 15 while watching the 1972 Munich Games. She became a top American cyclist by July 1982, when a terrible road–race crash injured her brain and left doctors doubtful about whether she would survive. She was wearing only a soft leather helmet at the time; her accident made the rule put into practice that cyclists wear the hard–shell helmets that are now common.

Buchan recovered enough of her athletic ability to run track in the 1988 Paralympics in Seoul, where she won a silver medal in the 800 meters. Women’s cycling was not included in the Paralympics yet, so Buchan trained to the point where she raced against men in the 2000 Paralympics in Sydney, Australia-she finished 9th and 10th in two races-and then successfully fought for a separate women’s cycling program beginning in 2004 in Athens, where she did not get a medal.

Even though she was approaching her 50s, Buchan kept racing and again made the United States Paralympic team for Beijing-where she is twice the age of most of her teammates and competitors.

“Barbara’s almost the leader of our team-she’s been through it all,” said Craig Griffin, the United States cycling coach. “She’s never tired. She’s never let her body go and then come back. I don’t think age is as big of a deal as people make it out to be.”

64. According to the text, after the accident,         .

       A．Buchan asked her friends to take care of her

       B．cyclists started to wear helmets in competition

       C．Buchan could not answer questions correctly

       D．doctors doubted whether Buchan could come back to life

65. What’s the right order of the events related to Buchan?

       a. She won a gold medal in Beijing.

       b. She became a top American cyclist.

       c. She won a silver medal in the 800 meters.

       d. She suffered a terrible bicycle accident.

       e. She took part in a cycling program in Athens.

       A．c-d-b-a-e               B．b-c-d-a-e 

C．b-d-e-c-a         D．c-b-d-e-a

66. What does the underlined phrase “get back on your feet” in the second paragraph mean?

       A．rise to your feet              B．walk on your way

       C．go beyond yourself  D．depend on yourself

67. Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?

      A．The Making of a Hero     B．From a Loser to a Winner

       C．All Roads Lead to Rome  D．Health is Better than Wealth
