His life seems different from that of the others. He looks exhausted and carries nothing. He appears along a downtown street, seemingly out of nowhere. We sometimes want to know where he sleeps at night. A few weeks ago he boarded the bus. A few stops later, a young woman boarded. She swiped (刷) her bus-card, only to find the machine would not accept it. The driver told her to pay the $2.25 fare. “I just bought this card,” she said. “I paid the money.” The driver said she could take the card back to the sales office and explain the problem. In the meantime she would have to pay the fare for that day. The woman became confused and distressed. The rest of us just watched, wondering how the problem would be solved. Suddenly the man rose from his seat, dropped a few coins into the fare box. “Youre lucky,” the bus driver said quietly. “He paid for you.” Silence fell over the bus. The rest of us had watched the womans discomfort, but he felt it. We lawyers, journalists and business people headed downtown to help fix the world. He fixed her world. I havent seen him since that day. Some people believe angels occasionally drop down and move among us. All I know is that I have a new respect for the simple act of kindness. It speeds us along on our way.21. According to the first paragraph, the author _. A. thinks highly of the manB. often gives the man some help C. knows the man very wellD. considers the man strange22.

D.to believe that people are born kind.BHow the Grand Canyon (大峡谷) was created remains one of the geologys greatest mysteries. Some evidence suggests that the process was a gradual one in which the Colorado River (which runs through the canyon) slowly cut deeper and deeper into the ground over millions of years. But volcanic rock samples taken from the canyon now suggest that the canyon was down-cut instead.Down-cutting is when a flood of water rushes over a landscape (地形) with enough force to cut deeply into the ground and leaves behind a canyon. Such a flood is usually released when a natural or man-made dam (堤坝) bursts.Robert Webb, a research geologist, says natural dams seem to have formed and broken across the Colorado River several times during the last million years. The dams were built when lava(熔岩) from the eruptions of nearby volcanoes flowed into the river. The lava hardened into hard rocks and blocked the river, causing it to back up and form a lake. Each time the lake grew so huge that it broke the rock dam, releasing a flash flood that furthered the down-cutting process and deepened the canyon. Down-cutting is not just an earthly event. Satellite photos sent back from Mars suggest that the process has happened there, too, say many other researchers.The photos, taken by the Mars Global Surveyor, indicate that an enormous lake existed on Mars 3.5 billion years ago. The lake spilled into a large nearby hole. One edge of the hole broke, releasing a flash flood that quickly carved out a grand canyon.The existence of down-cutting on Mars is just one more piece of evidence that the cold, dry planet was once warm and wet.24. In the past, deep canyons were believed to have formed _. A. as a result of a sudden break of volcanoes B. due to river flows over millions of years C. owing to the burst of artificial damsD. thanks to our ancestors creative work25.

Several great lakes existed on the upper parts of the Colorado River. C. People built high dams on the upper parts of the Colorado River. D. The Colorado River crossed the Grand Canyon to form down-cutting.26. From the last three paragraphs we learn that _. A. there are great lakes on MarsB. there are active volcanoes on Mars C. there might be cities on MarsD. there might be life on Mars27. The passage can be titled as _. A. Lakes on Earth and MarsB.

Public school kids surrounded by museums and monuments are putting the ready-made learning tools to use and actually learning. A trip to see painter Jacob Lawrences Migration Series is one of almost 200 trips that Wheelock will organize this year through the nonprofit group Live It Learn It. “For many kids, school is disconnected,” says one of four full-time workers and tour leaders. “With the program, they see how what they are learning is connected to their communities.”Seven years ago, Wheelock changed a job as a lawyer for one as a four-grade teacher. When he learned that D.C.s public schools ranked behind those of other cities in many ways, he knew he had to do something different. He took his class to Capitol Hill for a lesson on the three branches of government and saw his students interest develop quickly.With seed money from a local couple, Wheelock developed detailed lesson plans for trips to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Lincoln Memorial. The group also has classes for trips to the Anacostia River, boat rides to historical forts. Word spread, and now fourth, fifth, sixth graders from the neediest public schools in the District participate.“Im not brave enough to take my class to a museum for over an hour!” says teacher Cathy McCoy, gesturing toward her students. “But look With Live It Learn It, what the kids learn today theyll remember for a lifetime.” 32.

They built bigger and bigger ships. Many members of the United States Congress worried about the cost. 37 They asked President Harding to organize a conference to discuss these issues. 38 President Harding invited representatives from the major naval powers of the time Britain, Japan, France and Italy. He also invited representatives from countries with interests in Asia and Europe China, Portugal, Belgium and the Netherlands. He did not invite the new Soviet leaders in Russia.Mr Hardings Secretary of State, Charles Evans Hughes, spoke. 39 He proposed that the worlds strongest nations should stop building warships for ten years. He also proposed that Britain, Japan, and the United States should destroy some ships to make their navies smaller immediately. 40 It involved the misuse of underground oil owned by the federal government. Warren Harding was an honest man. But he did not have a strong mind of his own. He was easily influenced. And he often accepted bad advice.

I know that somewhere there is a man who knows the truth. But I do not know where to find him.”A. He is remembered mostly for two events.B. The conference was not a complete success.C.
