It was a cold evening. An old man had been standing by the river for hours. His beard(胡子） was frozen while he waited for a ride across the river. The wait seemed endless. Anxiously, he watched as several horsemen came around the corner.

He let the first one pass by without trying to get his attention. Then another passed by, and another. Finally, the last rider came near. As this one drew near, the old man said, "Sir,would you mind giving an old man a ride to the other side?"

The rider replied,"Sure thing. Get on." The horseman took the old man not just across the river, but to his home, which was a few miles away.

As they neared the man's village, the horseman asked," Sir, I noticed that you let several other riders pass by without trying to ask for a ride. Then I came up and you asked me for a ride at once. Why? What if I had refused and left you there?" The old man replied,"I know people pretty well. I looked into the eyes of the other riders and saw that they didn't care about me. It would have been useless to ask them for a ride. But when I looked into your eyes, your kindness and compassion(怜悯） were clear. I knew that you would help me."

B. Because he was too anxious to speak.

C. Because they rode too fast to notice him.

D. Because he didn't think they would help.

32. After being asked for help, what might the last horseman be thinking about the old man?

A."He is a useless man."           B."He is a kind man."

C."He is a poor old man."          D."He is a warm-hearted man."

Almost every kid in this country has ever eaten Hershey chocolate. But do you know that the Hershey chocolate factory is more than one hundred years old? And do you know that the father of Hershey Chocolate, Milton Hershey had many failures in business before he started his famous company?

Milton Hershey was born in 1857 in central Pennsylvania. He stopped attending school when he was 12 years old. Before he became interested in making chocolate, he worked as a printer for a small newspaper at first, but he didn't like it. Then he decided that printing was not the right job for him.

Then he worked at a candy factory in Lancaster. After working for a few years there,he decided to open his own little candy business near Philadelphia. His first business failed because it was not making money. After that, he went to Denver to learn how to make caramels (焦糖）. He took his new skills back to New York and began selling candies on the street. But his second business also failed.

Finally, Milton Hershey moved back to Pennsylvania where he grew up. He then

experimented with all kinds of different candies and chocolate. By 1893, he was selling a million dollars worth of caramel candy each year. Since his chocolate-flavored(巧克力口味） caramels were the best-selling, he decided to make chocolate himself.

By experimenting caramels, Milton Hershey discovered how to make delicious chocolate. The area where he lived had a large and easy supply of milk and sugar, which helped him succeed in his chocolate business. In 1903, Milton Hershey built a huge chocolate factory and a town to go with it.

Today, the town of Hershey is still the home of the factory that Milton Hershey built.The streetlights are shaped like the candy. The air often smells like chocolate. And if you ever visit it, you can smell delicious chocolate smells just by driving through the town.

The factory is not so hard to find, just travel down Cocoa Avenue until you get to East Chocolate Avenue. Turn right at the traffic lights and just follow your nose. It's not far.

A. had finished his college

B. had many failures in business

C. had taught himself how to make caramels

D. had built a town
