During my visit to China, I stayed in several hotels or guesthouses. I would like to say something about fire regulations(条例) in these hotels.
When I was in Beijing in a hotel I checked the nearest fire escape to my room, as I usually do, I found that on the ground floor, the exit(出口) out of the buildings was chained and locked! If there was a fire, people wouldn’t be able to escape. In some other places, I did not find any notice
about the procedures(程序).

What is America’s number one sport? Can I still say baseball? You could make that statement 30 years ago, but things have changed. Baseball of course has the richest history of all sports. But with the popularity of basketball and American football, there can now be an argument on which sport is American’s number one sport.
Basketball really took a turn in the 1980’s as Magic Johnson and Larry Bird took the NBA to another level. Of course, basketball was already popular and had seen such stars as Jerry West and Dr.J, but the real breakthrough(突破) came in the 1980’s and from there it really took off with Michael Jordan into the 90’s. Basketball has even become very global now as many NBA stars competed in the Olympics and faced no competition. Today, they had better be ready because there are so many talents(天才 Like basketball, American football has always been a favorite of many sports fans and its popularity has grown widely. The ratings(收视率) that Super Bowl Sunday brings are amazing. They have even talked about making Super Bowl Sunday a national holiday.
In the year 2050, basketball and American football will have history like baseball’s rich history and maybe American national sport. They have been trying for years, but it is not going to happen.
So what is American’s number one sport? To me baseball will always be Americans’ hobby --- rich in history and many memories for people of all ages. If you have any comments on this subject, do give your opinions.

“It’s over! Thank goodness!”
School was over and I was tired． I sat at the front of the school bus．
Janie, the driver, tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere by striking the match of talks． I try to listen politely, but usually I am too busy thinking about my day． On this day, however, her talk was worth listening to．
“My father’s ill,” she said to no one in particular． I could see worry in her eyes． I had never seen her like this before． She always meets students with a smile．
With a sudden change of interest, I asked, “What’s wrong with him?”
With her eyes wet and her voice unusual, she answered, “Heart trouble．” Her eyes lowered as she continued． “I’ve already lost my mum, so I don’t think I can stand losing him．” I couldn’t answer． My heart ached for her．
I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain my own mother was thrown into when her father died． I saw how hard it was, and still is, for her． I wouldn’t want anyone to go through that．
Suddenly I realized Janie was more than a bus driver． That was just her job． She had a whole world of family and cares for them too．
I suddenly felt very selfish． I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver． I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as unimportant． I shouldn’t have been so selfish and self-centered．
Understanding people is an art．
52．When the students get on the school bus, Janie usually _______ ．
A．listens to music B．talks about her own worry
C．sits on her seat without words D．meets them with a smile
53．After she learned Janie’s story, the writer thought of _______ ．

A
We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.
Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity（机会）and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed - no examination is perfect - but to
have no external( 外部的 )tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in external examinations or in any controls in schools or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency（实力）,the ideal and the purpose of each teacher.
Without external examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them - a form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill - respected school can show certificates（证书）to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of a certificate shows the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well - respected school. This defence of excellence and opportunity would disappear if external examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school's fame（名誉）,unable to compete for employment with the child from the favoured school.
The opponents（对手）of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.
These people are not just against school organisation, but are at war with the whole idea of modem competitive society and they are using children in schools for their destructive（破坏性的）purposes. There is no reason why we should allow such people to determine the way our schools are organised when it is to the obvious disadvantage of the pupils, of the schools and of our society as a whole.
51. According to the passage, the writer thinks that ________.
A. changing the standards could mean the end of equality
B. standards must keep changing in order to achieve equality
C. there would be no standards without external examinations
D. we cannot have standards because examinations are not perfect
52. In the writer's opinion, what would happen if external examinations were taken away?
A. There would be no more opportunities and no more excellence.

Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But many years ago, it wasn’t easy at all. Before 1750, people never tried skating on wheels. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin’s work was making instruments. In his free time he liked to play the violin. Merlin was a man with many ideas and many dreams. People called him a dreamer.
One day Merlin received an invitation to go to an important party. He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think. He wanted to find a way to make a wonderful entrance at the party. Merlin had an idea. He thought that he would attract a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skate shoes. Merlin was very proud of them. He dreamed of arriving at the party and skating into the room while playing the violin. He was sure that everyone would be very surprised.
On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room, playing his violin. Everyone was really surprised to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skating.

During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping makes it possible for your body to prepare itself for the next day.

Although your mind slows down, you will dream from time to time. Scientists who study sleep point out that when you are dreaming, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.

“You know, these cups bring to mind a tea quote(说法) I heard.” Mary’s aunt said.
She poured tea. There were four of them and there were four totally different cups on the table. They took their tea cups.
“What quote?” Mary asked.
“Well, maybe I should rather say it is a story,” aunt said, “I heard that there was a wise teacher who took all his students for tea. They were surprised that all the cups on the table were different. Each of them took a cup and started drinking their tea, each looking at the cups of others. The teacher let them do that for a while and then said,‘Do you notice your behavior? You are all looking at each other’s tea cup and I can see some of you with the broken ones are even envious(羡慕的) of the finer cups of others. Is this not so?’ ”

circumstances(状况) of your life. You all got the same thing in your cups — tea. And yet you can not truly enjoy it in your envy of another’s cup. It’s just the same with life. You forget to enjoy your own life when you concentrate on envying the circumstances of someone else’s life.
So now, close your eyes, and taste your own tea. Really taste it. And tell me — did it matter from which cup it came from?”
Aunt finished telling her short tea story and they all sat in silence for a while, tasting their tea. A sleepy fly buzzed(嗡嗡作响) past, a bird sang in the tree. And it really did not matter one bit from which tea cup they drank.
