Yet I later became the father f tw bys, Will and Tim (8 and 5), wh were bth interested in baseball. On Saturday mrnings, I’d take Will ut t the playgrund and play catch with him. Thanks t my weak arm, the ball drpped befre he culd catch it. After many misses ne day, he said, “Hw am I ever ging t make the majr leagues?” “Yu gt the wrng dad, kid,” I thught.

I finally decided that I must d smething abut it. S I called the city’s recreatin department, explaining that sme families wanted t start a baseball league in ur neighbrhd. Were there any fields fr that? They bunced me arund. Finally, I spke t the fficial in charge. I gt butterflies in my stmach. What if he said n? “Yes, we have smething fr yu,” the man said, hearing my request. We gt tw fields fr fur hurs every Sunday mrning. Our league was funded. What a jy it was t sit n the benches, watching Will and Tim playing baseball! Hw grateful I was fr ther parents wh did the caching! And I became the mst unlikely baseball cmmissiner (专员) ever.
Many years have passed. Nw Will and Tim are new dads, and I can’t wait t see what they’ll have t d. I knw better than anyne: Parenthd calls yu t d the mst unlikely things.

One by ne, prejudices are disappearing in the West. Peple may hld private suspicins that ther peple’s race r sex makes them inferir—but t say s penly is ttally tab(禁忌). One ld prejudice remains undisturbed, thugh. Just ask a childless persn.
They are nt charged t special taxes, as they were in Sviet Russia; nr are they driven frm their hmes, as they still are in sme pr cuntries. The childless nnetheless cme in fr a lt f criticism. Sme pint ut that nn-parents are failing t prduce the future wrkers wh will pay fr their pensins. Childless pliticians are charged with nt having a prper stake in sciety. “He talks t us abut the future, but he desn’t have children!” cmplained Jean-Marie Le Pen, c-funder f the Natinal Frnt party, f Emmanuel Macrn, wh went n t win the French presidency. Similar attacks n Theresa May and Angela Merkel als failed but researchers find that many vters quietly agree.
If nn-breeders are selfish, they have a strange way f shwing it. They are mre likely t set up charitable fundatins than peple with children, and much mre likely t dnate mney t gd causes. Accrding t ne American estimate, the mere fact f nt having children raises the amunt a persn leaves t charity by a little ver $10,000. The childless are thus a small but useful cunterweight t the wrld’s parents, wh stp scial stability by passing n their scial and ecnmic advantages t their children.
The charge that childless peple fail t pull their weight in ppulatin is crrect, but is less serius than it appears. Thse wh d nt have children d put pressure n public pensin systems. Gvernments have t d unppular things like making pensins less generus, as Japan has dne, r accepting mre immigrants, as sme Western cuntries have dne. But t sustain public pensins in the lng term, cuntries d nt actually need mre parents. What they need instead is mre babies. It is pssible t cmbine a high rate f childlessness with a high birth rate, prvided peple wh becme parents have mre than ne r tw children. That was the pattern in many Western cuntries a century ag. Ireland, yet anther cuntry with a childless leader, still manages it tday.
The childless als d everyne else a favr by creating wnderful wrks f art. British nvelists have been especially likely t have n ffspring: think f Hilary Mantel, P.G Wdehuse and the Brnte sisters. In September last year Britain put Jane Austen n its ten-pund nte. That decisin was cntrversial, thugh it was hard t see why. Few peple have written as shrewdly abut mney r abut families even thugh Austen did nt marry, and had n children.
28. What is the main idea f Paragraph 2?
A. The childless ften cme under sharp criticism.
B. Childlessness is t future wrkers’ disadvantage.
C. Many highly successful peple have n children
D. The childless pliticians get attacked in sciety.
29. The childless are prejudiced because peple think the childless ______.
A. have a strange way t shw selfishness
B. set a bad example fr yung peple
C. are nt as generus as thse with children
D. are the gvernment’s financial burden
30. What des the underlined wrd “it” in Paragraph 4 refer t?
A. Accepting mre immigrants.
B. Reducing the pensins fr the aged.
C. Encuraging parents t have mre children.
D. Supprting the plitical leaders with n children.
31. What is the best title fr the passage?
A. In defense f the childless.B. Prejudice against nn-breeders.
C. Why dn’t they have children?D. Measures t address childlessness.

Wh can imagine life tday withut an Autmated Teller Machine (ATM)? They are available in cnsiderable numbers thrughut the wrld.
The first ATM was the brainchild f an enterprising Turkish-American inventr Luther Gerge Simjian. When the idea f an autmated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents befre any bank agreed t give it a trial run. It is easy t assume that the inventr f such a ppular machine was laughing all the way t the bank. ____16____ Within six mnths f its peratin in New Yrk in 1939, the device was remved due t lack f custmer acceptance.
It was nt until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rlled ut a self-service machine in Lndn, England, which prved successful. ____17____ The first cash machine relied n custmers’ use f prepaid tkens (代币) t get envelpes with a fixed amunt f cash inside.
____18____ The banks’ principle was seemingly custmer service. But it wuld be flish t minimize the many advantages that cash machines prvided t the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cst fr the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cst and lss t prfits were its staff. Bank accunts swiftly recgnized that self-service peratins culd reduce bank branch staff cst by70 percent.
Experts quickly determined that public acceptance f ATMs cunted n cnvenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. ____19____ Fr maximum efficiency, ATMs had t be lcated near public transprt r in a shpping mall, nt at a branch. The busier and mre crwded the lcatin, bviusly, the better. Nw, rughly 75 percent f all cash prvided by banks t their custmers cmes frm cash machines. ____20____.
Public acceptance f depsits (存款) by machine was significantly slwer than custmers’ usage f ATMs fr withdrawals. In general, it seems that custmers smetimes still prefer and trust an ver-the-cunter transactin (交易) fr depsits.
A. Lcatin, in particular, was a key factr.
B. His cash machine, hwever, didn’t prve durable.
C. The device was relatively primitive, at least by tday’s standards.
D. Hwever, cash machines psed sme interesting, unanswered questins.
E. An interesting factr was the issue f bi-statistics fr custmer identificatin.
F. Devices riginally dismissed by the public are nw recgnized as essential institutins.
G. Sn afterwards, many ther banks became admittedly champins f the cash machine.

I was always afraid f water. This fear culd nt be explained, but I knew that the mment I stepped near any bdy f water, my legs wuld turn t jelly (果冻). I wuld imagine myself drwning in the water and thrashing arund (乱扑腾) helplessly. That was why I had never gne int a swimming pl until swimming became a schl requirement. My schl wanted all pupils t pass a swimming test, and if they culd nt, then they wuld have t attend weekly swimming lessns in schl, which made me tremble.
Thus, my parents signed me up fr swimming lessns at the pl near my huse. With great unwillingness, I attended thse weekly lessns, and each ne was great suffering fr me. I was naturally clumsy, and my fear f water did nt help at all. Every lessn, I wuld be spending my time thrashing abut in the water, while my classmates wuld be swimming cuntless laps effrtlessly and even turning ver like dlphins in the water. Hw was I ging t pass the test at this rate?
In my swimming class, there was an exceptinally athletic girl. Tall and muscular, her name was Kathy. She was the best swimmer in ur class and always lked at me with disdain (鄙视), especially when I thrashed abut hpelessly in the water.
Once, after a particularly lng and hard swimming lessn, I sptted Kathy swimming gracefully in the pl. Gathering my curage, I asked gently, “Kathy, can yu teach me t swim?” She stared at me cldly. It was as if I std at the edge f an endless cean f inadequacy, my fears appearing like dark strm cluds threatening t drwn me. Yet, in that mment, a glimmer f hpe flashed within me, a desperate lnging fr guidance and acceptance. Wuld Kathy’s icy exterir (外表) melt under the warmth f empathy, r wuld I remain frever thrashing in the sea f my wn fears?

67. T my surprise, she ndded after a few mments f silence. Frm then n, Kathy stayed back fr abut an hur after every swimming lessn t cach me. She taught me hw t prpel myself frward in the water and I gradually gained cnfidence in the pl. Slwly but surely, I imprved under her guidance and encuragement. Fur mnths later, it was time fr me t take my swimming test. I jumped int the pl and fllwed all f Kathy’s advice. I swam gracefully, just like a fish, and passed the test with flying clurs.
“Cngratulatins!” Kathy said when she learnt I had passed the swimming test. I threw my arms arund her and hugged her tightly. “Thank yu! Yu’re a wnderful friend!
