In the city of Fujisawa, Japan, lives a woman named Atsuko Saeki When she was a teenager, she 36 of going to the United States. Most of what she knew about American  37  was from the textbooks she had read. "I had a  38 in mind: Daddy watching TV in the living  room,Mummy  39 cakes and their teenage daughter off to the cinema with her boyfriend."
Atsuko  40 to attend college in California. When she arrived, however, she found it was not her  41  world.'"People were struggling with problems and often seemed  42 ," she said. "I felt very alone."
One of her hardest  43 was physical education. "We played volleyball." she said."The other students were   44  it, but I wasn't."
One afternoon, the instructor asked Atsuko to   45  the ball to her teammates so they could knock it  46  the net.No problem for most people, but it terrified Atsuko. She was afraid of losing face  47 she failed.
A young man on her team  48 What she was going through." He walked up to me and 49  , 'Come on. You can do that'".

Six years have passed. Atsuko is back in Japan, working as a salesclerk. "I have  52 forgotten the words." she said. "When things are not going so well, I think of them."
She is sure the young man had no idea how much his kindness   53 to her.  "He probably doesn't even remember it," she said. That may be the lesson. Whenever you say something to a person cruel or kind—you have no idea how long the words will  54  . She's all the way over in Japan, but still she hears those four  55 words: You can do that.

At one time no one could travel on an English road faster than four miles an hour. That was the law until 1896. A man had to walk in front of a car which could not go faster than the man. At night the man had to carry a red lamp.
Once Charles Rolls brought a car from France to England, but he wanted to drive faster than four miles an hour .In order to have no trouble with the police, he had a talk with some of the police officers, who ordered their policemen to look the other way when the car came along the road. This was a good plan in the country, but not so easy to follow in the busy streets of London.
One night Rolls and some friends started from London on their journey to Cambridge. One of the men walked in front with the red lamp, but he walked as fast as he could. The police became very interested in walls and shop-fronts when they heard the car, and not one of them saw it.
They reached a hill; but what a waste of time it was to drive down the hill at four miles an hour! Rolls was getting ready to jump into the car; but then he noticed a policeman who was not looking the other way. The slow car reached him.
“Good evening,” said the policeman, looking at the car.
“Good evening,” said Rolls, holding the lamp.
“One of these horseless things,” said the policeman, looking at it with interest.
“Yes,” said Rolls, and waited.
“I’ve often wanted a ride in one; but of course policemen can’t buy things like that.” He turned and looked hopefully in Rolls’s face.
“Jump in,” said Rolls.
“Thanks,” said the policeman, and did so. “Now,” he said, sitting down, “you can let it go just as you like down this hill. There isn’t another policeman on this road for a mile and a half.”
60.The policemen were told “to look the other way” (the underlined part in Paragraph 2) so that        .
A.they could watch the car coming from the other direction
B.the car could go faster than four miles an hour
C.they could make sure no one was in the way
D.the car would not hit them on the road
61.In what way did the policemen carry out the order from their officers?
A.They greeted Rolls when the car came along.
B.They walked in front of the car with a red lamp.
C.They pretended to be attracted by something else.
D.They stood on duty every 1.5 miles along the road.
62.The policeman who said “Good evening” to Rolls wanted to       .
A.teach Rolls a lesson                                  B.take a free ride home
C.have a talk with Rolls                               D.have a car ride experience
63.After the policeman jumped into the car, Rolls       .
A.dared not drive the car faster than he was allowed to
B.could drive as fast as he wished within a certain distance
C.could drive on any road he liked for the rest of the journey
D.drove his car as fast as he could down the hill to Cambridge

Do you know of Guo Degang? In recent months he has become well known in China as a crosstalker.He has never performed on TV before, but attending his crosstalk performance is becoming increasingly fashionable in Beijing, especially for youth and school children.
Guo arrived in Beijing from Tianjin in 1995 and came across a teahouse where he found several young people performing crosstalk.Being a crosstalker himself, he couldn’t help taking to the stage.Gradually, more and more people came to the teahouse to see him perform.He soon found himself playing to audiences numbering more than 100 in a teahouse that could only contain 80.
As his popularity grew, Guo thought over the future of his art.“Traditional crosstalk is at least half an hour long, but performances are no longer than five minutes on TV, which kills much of the story.TV is part of the fast-food culture and crosstalk is a face-to-face art form — it needs interaction (交流), and is not suited to TV,” Guo said.He decided to bring it back to its roots: the teahouse and theater.
In 1996, Guo and some young crosstalk actors founded Deyun Crosstalk Association.Over the next ten years, the association organized countless performances in teahouses across Beijing.Despite their growing popularity, Guo ensured (確保) that ticket prices were kept low to make the art form accessible to everyone.Tickets to his performances are still 20 yuan today.And in keeping with technology and modern times, the association set up a BBS site on the Internet where fans could download recordings and discuss performances with actors.
He hopes that through their efforts, more young people will learn to appreciate crosstalk and perhaps train to be crosstalkers themselves.

A.Guo Degang and his traditional crosstalk

A.let fans download recordings
B.have fans discuss performances with actors
