Smetimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-ld daughter, Elizabeth, listen t rck music tgether and talk abut pp culture, he remembers his mre distant relatinship with his parents when he was a teenager. “I wuld never have said t my mm, ‘Hey, the new Weezer album is really great.

Great cultural changes led t mre pen cmmunicatin and at mre demcratic(民主的) prcess that encurages everyne t have a say. “It's nt smething easily finished by parents these days, because life is mre difficult t understand r deal with, but sharing interests des make it mre fun t be a parent nw,” explains Mr. Ballmer.

①700 years befre the Wright brthers began experimenting with human flight, the Chinese had already gt its secrets — with kites.
②Kites may have been invented in China as early as 500 While sme kites were flwn fr fun, ther kites prvided key technlgies fr daily life. Chinese fishermen used kites t carry their lines far ut t sea. Sailrs used them t take a measurement f the wind.
③The Chinese craftsmen were very clever! They made their kites frm bamb and silk, and they came in all kinds f cl shapes, like 80-ft-lng dragns. These kites shwed ff ancient China's great technlgy. Their wings and tails culd even mve! As Chinese engineers experimented t make the kites fly even higher, they discvered the science f aerdynamics(空气动力学). They made the wings f their kites wrk like airfils(机翼) — the same design used in mdern planes.
④And the man-carriers were the mst amazing Chinese kites. Ancient Chinese peple may have made them a cmmn sight by the 1200s. The kites were much larger than a small airplane. They were made frm strng bamb ples tied tgether and then cvered with silk. During wars, Chinese scuts used man-carrying kites t fly high in the sky and spy n their enemies — similar t mdern spy planes.
⑤In the late 1200s, the Italian businessman and explrer Marc Pl was amazed by what he saw in China, and he wrte a detailed descriptin. When he returned t Italy, mst peple refused t believe him. They culd nt imagine that a persn culd fly.
⑥Centuries passed befre Eurpeans learned the secrets ften by flying kites imprted frm China. In 1804, an English engineer, Sir Gerge Cayley, built the first mdel airplanes. He used kites t make the wings. Abut 100 years later, American inventrs, including the Wright brthers, als fund ideas fr their flight experiments by flying kites first.
53. What des Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. Hw peple made kites.B. When kites were invented.
C. What kites were used fr.D. Where kites were invented.
54. Why are mdern planes mentined in Paragraph 3?
A. T describe the ppularity f ancient Chinese kites.
B. T get readers t learn abut the histry f Chinese kites.
C. T shw the excellent skills f kite made in ancient China.
D. T tell the differences between mdern planes and Chinese kites.
55. Which is the crrect rder f the fllwing events?

b. Ancient Chinese made large man-carrying kites.
c. Marc Pl tld Italians abut Chinese amazing kites.

In less than an hur the feet were finished, tw slender, nimble little feet, strng and quick, mdeled as if by an artist's hands.
“Clse yur eyes and sleep!” Geppett then said t the Marinette.
Pincchi clsed his eyes and pretended t be asleep, while Geppett stuck n the tw feet with a bit f glue melted in an eggshell, ding his wrk s well that the jint culd hardly be seen.
As sn as the Marinette felt his new feet, he gave ne leap frm the table and started t skip and jump arund, as if he had lst his head frm very jy.
“T shw yu hw grateful I am t yu, Father, I’ll g t schl nw. But t g t schl I need a suit f clthes.”
Geppett did nt have a penny in his pcket, s he made his sn a little suit f flwered paper, a pair f shes frm the bark f a tree, and a tiny cap frm a bit f dugh.
Pincchi ran t lk at himself in a bwl f water, and he felt s happy that he said prudly: “Nw I lk like a gentleman.”
“Truly,” answered Geppett. “But remember that fine clthes d nt make the man unless they be neat and clean.”
“Very true,” answered Pincchi, “but, in rder t g t schl, I still need smething very imprtant.”
“What is it?”
“An A-B-C bk.”
Putting n his ld cat, full f darns and patches(补丁), he ran ut f the huse withut anther wrd. After a while he returned. In his hands, he had the A-B-C bk fr his sn, but the ld cat was gne. The pr fellw was in his shirt sleeves and the day was cld.
“Where's yur cat, Father?”
“I have sld it.”
“Why did yu sell it?”
“It's t warm.”
Pincchi understd the answer in a twinkling, and, unable t restrain his tears, he jumped n his father's neck and kissed him ver and ver.
