In no time he wrapped包裹 a cloth tightly around his arm to stop the poison spreading go his heart. Rushing home he shouted Bring me the knife!

He worked hard in an office and was paid much. He had a happy family. His wife was beautiful and kind to him. His daughter Sara was only three years old and everyone liked her. At fist he loved his wife and took good care of Sara. When he was free, he always went to the theatres or parks with them. And they enjoyed themselves. Later he got interested in gambling(赌博) and he often stayed outside for days. His wife looked for him but she failed. She asked him to stop gambling but he didnt listen to her. He lost a lot. In the end she had to divorce离婚 him and left Sara to him. And soon after that he was sent away解雇. He began to look for another job but nobody would employ a man like him. He got into trouble at once. Once Sara caught a bad cold and had to be in hospital. However, he had no money. His neighbor didnt lend his any though they had pity on the poor girl. He thought for a long time and found a way.

Boys and girls have nearly two months holiday before them as they leave school by train and car to return home to their fathers and mothers. The summer holidays are the best part of the year for most children. The weather is usually good, so that one can spend most of ones time playing in the garden or, if one lives in the country, out in the woods and fields. Even if one lives in a big town, one can usually go to a park to play. The best place for a summer holiday, however, is the seaside. Some children are lucky enough to live near the sea, but for the other who do not, a week or two at one of the big seaside towns is something which they will talk about for the whole of the following year. In England, it is not only the rich who can take their children to the seaside; if the factory worker or a bus driver, a street cleaner or a waiter wants to take his wife and children to Southend or Margate, Blackpoor or Clacton, he is usually quite able to do so. Now, what is it that children like so much about the seaside? I think it is the sand, sea and sun more than any other things. Of course, there are lots of new things to see, nice things to eat, and exciting things to do, but it is the feeling of sand under ones feet, of salt water on ones skin, and of the warm sun on ones back that make the seaside what it is. 68. Summer holidays start _. A. with July B. as soon as the examinations are over C. in mid-June D. in August 69. After the examination, all pupils leave for home _. A. by train only B. by air C. by bike D. by either train or car 70. July and August are the brightest months for most children, for they can _. A. stay with their parents for all the vacation B. do
