The man was nearly out of sight when the Frenchman suddenly found his watch was gone. He thought it was that Italian who had taken his watch. He decided to follow him and force him to return the watch. Soon the Frenchman caught up with the Italian. Neither of them understood the others language. The Frenchman threatened the Italian with his hand and pointed to his own watch. In the end, the Italian gave his watch to him.

The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire, if you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential of that nation.Today in America, if you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choices would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock stars- the people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent but one wonders if one should hold up rock stars as a model. The rock stars too often are mixed with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles. However, one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes. The second type of hero for the American youth is the sports stars. Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area - sports. However, too often the personal life of the sports stars is a bit of disorder. Too frequent drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports stars. The third type of hero is the TV or movie stars. These persons may have lots of acting talent and are quite sad and they should not be held up as a model of young people. Today, the rock star, the athlete, and the actor all have become the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a teacher, or a scientist? These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes. However, they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone. What is really sad is that the young try to imitate their heroes. They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles. If the heroes of today for the American young people are limited only to rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright.64. From the passage, we know that the heroes the American youth admire are those _. A. who are not bright but are good-looking B. who are rich but are strict with themselves C. who are talented in some area but lead an improper life D. who are perfect in all areas65. It can be inferred that the American young people will not admire _. A. a university professor B. a popular singer C. a football player D. a film actress66. According to the writer, people should admire those _. A. who are rich and wear the latest fashionable clothes B. who can express peoples feelings C. whose personal life is good D. who work in the interests of the people67. What is the writers attitude towards American youths admiration? A. He understands it. B. He criticizes it. C. He is angry about it. D. He is uninterested in it.D Springtime in Paris 4 days for $129 per person Paris in springtime was, is and will be something rather special.
