While you are in trouble, what are you going to do? What? 36 ? Or run away? Those are all the wrong ways. Robinson Crusoe can tell you the 37 answer.
It is an 38 story: Robinson Crusoe hated the comfortable life in his hometown. So , he wanted to be a seaman and travelled around the world. But one day, a terrible thing happened. A great storm came and their boat crashed! No one was alive in this accident except Robinson.
He was the 39 man in the world－Because all his friends were 40 but he was alive. 41 , at the same time he was the most tragic(悲惨的) man of all－He must face the fact.
Alone on an island 42 food, water or gun! But, all roads lead to Rome! He just used his 43 to work hard. Then, he made a cave, built a house, grew corn and kept goats. In the end, he could 44 the life on the island. In his twenty-fourth year on the island, he saved a wild man, and gave him the name of “Friday”. With Robinson’s 45 , “Friday” learned to become a good servant(仆人). Finally, they got a boat and 46 the island!
Surely, the writer of Robinson Crusoe is really a hero! It’s too 47 to describe Robinson with words. We could say that Robinson was very 48 , and also he was brave...Certainly, too many good words can describe him. But now, I don’t think it is 49 , the most important thing is 50 we have learned from the story. That is, use our own hands to work hard with
confidence!

I’ve found the perfect flat! It’s small but very nice. It’s near my office, so I can walk to work. The only problem is that it’s $1,000 a month. That’s too much for a young man like me!
I’ve soon got used to the life here. I love it! There’s a supermarket nearby and some restaurants I can go to when I do not want to cook. My workmates and new neighbours are friendly. It’s April Fool’s Day today and I even played a trick on my neighbour next door. Cool!

There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to friends who have travelled to the places, you can go and see a film, or you can read travel books. 
     It seems that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective (主观的) ideas of travels which the writers have got themselves. These books can be useful if the writers share their travelling experiences with others. The second are those books which give a purely objective (客观的) information of things to be done and seen. If a cultured person has written such a book, then it is even more useful. The third kind are those books which are called “a guide” to some place. If they are good, they will describe and explain the place in detail. I think they are the most helpful for travellers. Like the first kind, they can be exciting and interesting, but their main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most special way. 
     Whatever kind of travel book you choose, you must make sure that it does not describe everything as “wonderful”, “excellent” or “fantastic”. You must keep an open eyes on its date of publication(出版) because travel is a very practical matter and many things change quickly in the twenty-first century. Finally, you should make sure that it is easy to find the useful information for your travel.
58. The passage is written to introduce .
A. maps B.travel books C.travel films D.travel places
59. The writer of the first kind of travel book gave his ideas after he .
A. travelled B. read books
C. heard a lot about travelling D. surfed the Internet
60. The underlined phrase “a cultured person” means person with .
A. a good appearance B. a good education
C. a lot of experience D. a lot of money
61. The date of publication must be noticed because .
A. the prices of travel books may be different
B. the writers of travel books may be different
C. the information in travel books is always the same
D. the information in travel books is always changing
D
Not everyone has a chance to be a detective（侦探）, but I got one when I was 13 years old. It happened in 1994.
One afternoon, I was walking down the street when I saw my father’s new car. I expected(期望) to see my father in the driver’s seat. But to my surprise, I saw a young woman driving instead, “She has stolen my father’s car,” I thought. So I quickly stopped a taxi and got in. I said to the driver, “Follow that new car in front,” I told him why.
The taxi driver had a car phone, so I asked him to call the police. Soon we heard the sound of a police car. The police told the woman to stop the car using a loudspeaker. The taxi came to a stop, too. I got out right then and said to the woman, “This is not your car. It's my father’s car.”
The woman smiled and said, “Oh. You’re Mr. Johnson’s son, right? I've seen your photo in your father’s office.”
Before I could say one word, the woman explained that she was my father’s new assistant（助手）. My father had asked her to take his computer to the shop to have it repaired. He lent her his car. After hearing this, I called my father and he told us what the woman said was right. The police and the taxi driver laughed. I felt very sorry. It was both the first time and the last time I worked as a detective.
62. When did the story take place?
A. Thirteen years ago. B. Twenty years ago. C. Thirty years ago. D. Before 1994.
63. What did the writer see one afternoon on a street?
A. He saw his father driving a new car with a young woman.
B. He saw a young woman driving a new car with his father.
C. He saw a young woman trying to steal his father’s new car.
D. He saw a young woman in his father’s new car.
64. How did the writer manage to get his father’s car to stop?
A. He had his father call the young woman. B. He asked the taxi driver to stop his father's car.
C. He got the help of the police. D. He called the young woman.
65. How did the writer feel when he found out the truth?
A. He felt good about himself. B. He felt sorry.
C. He felt very happy. D. He felt excited.

Before I was twelve years old, my family lived in the mountains. Our house was far from my school. It took me one hour to walk to school every morning. It was a happy time for me, because I could meet friends on the way, and we would go to school together. There were just six classes in my school, and only about twenty students in each class. We spent most of our time playing; the mountains were our playground. I still remember the different kinds of flowers, the songs of different birds, and the colors of trees in different seasons---everything was so interesting and beautiful. Even now I still miss my life in the mountains.
