A
Each time I see a balloon, my mind flies back to a memory of when I was a six-year-old girl. It was a rainy Sunday and my father had recently died. I asked my mom if Dad had gone to heaven. "Yes, honey. Of course." she said. "Can we write him a letter?"
She paused, the longest pause of my short life, and answered, "Yes." My heart jumped." Does the mailman go there?" I asked.
"No, but I have an idea." Mom drove to a party store and returned with a red balloon. I asked her what it was for. "Just wait, honey. You'll see." Mom told me to write my letter. Eagerly, I got my favorite pen, and poured out my six-year-old heart in the form of blue ink. I wrote about my day, what I learned at school, how Mom was doing, and even about what happened in a story I had read. For a few minutes it was as if Dad were still alive. I gave the letter to Mom. She read it over, and a smile crossed her face. She made a hole in the corner of the letter to tie it to the balloon. We went outside and she gave me the balloon. It was still raining. "Okay, on the count of three, let it go. One, two, three. " The balloon, carrying my letter, flew upward against the rain. We watched until it was swallowed by the clouds. Later I realized, like the balloon, that Dad had never let his sickness get him down. He was strong. No matter what he suffered, he'd keep on, fly up, and finally go beyond this cold world and his sick body. He rose into sky and became something beautiful. I watched until the balloon disappeared into the gray and white and I prayed that his strength was passed on. I prayed to be a balloon.

I drove to a local supermarket one day. My shopping list was long and my wallet was light. Still, I needed to get a week’s worth of groceries for my family. I parked my car, looked down at my list, and hoped I could afford it all.
As I approached the door, I saw an old man with kind eyes and a gentle smile. He said he was collecting for a local food bank. He handed me a second shopping list and asked if I could help them. I smiled back, took the list and walked into the store. I really wanted to help but wasn’t sure whether I could this time.
I walked through the store, getting what I needed. When I looked down at my full cart I wondered again if I even had enough to pay for it all. Then as I put my own list back into my pocket I remembered the food bank list under it. I smiled. I went over and picked up two of the biggest boxes of rice for the food bank. It took another six dollars out of my wallet, but my heart felt six times larger when I did it. And when everything was totaled, I had just enough to pay.
It takes so little to make our world a better place. A few dollars can help to fill a child’s hungry belly. A smile and hug can help to heal a hurting heart. An encouraging word can inspire someone else to live and to love. A random (偶然的) act of kindness can change another’s day and life. It is up to you, though. You can think only of yourself and those close to you while saving a few bucks on rice.

B.the old man was actually begging for food for himself
C.the author didn’t take much money with him that day
D.the author had no interest in the old man

A.thought highly of the old man’s behavior
B.refused to take the shopping list to the store
C.wasn’t sure if he could help him
D.decided to give him a hand at once
31.Which of the following statements does the author probably agree with?
A.Nothing but smiles can help heal a hurting heart.
B.It actually takes so little for us to make a difference to others.
C.Our world would be poor without kindness and help.
D.It is important for us to think of those who are in great need of rice.
32.What would be the best title for this passage?
A.A Pleasant Shopping Experience
B.An Old Beggar
C.A Long Shopping List
D.A Small Act of Kindness

It is popular to travel by bike in China. China has a huge population. And it is said that there is at least one bike for every two people. Of course, many people in China ride bikes for sport or exercise, but it is also a much more commonly accepted means of everyday transportation, as compared to countries such as the United States.
If you are living for a long time in China, chances are that you will want to buy your own bike so that you can use it whenever you want. Even if you don’t use a bike for everyday transportation, owning one can be a great way to enjoy the sights in the countryside. However, if you are just visiting China, renting a bike can be a more convenient choice.
It is important to choose the correct bike for your use. You will find that in China, the one-speed style of bike is popular. These bikes are great if you want to ride around in the city to see the sights. They are quite comfortable and easy to ride. You can often rent a bike for a day for about 15 dollars.
However, if you wish to ride on some of the rural paths, a mountain bike style would be a better choice. They are great for different kinds of road surfaces, providing for a safer ride. If you are planning to have a wish to tour and still be able to carry packages with you, then a touring bike would be the best choice. These are the most expensive to rent, but are very suitable for carrying packages and even some of your luggage along with you.
1.If you are traveling in Beijing, you had better ______.
A.buy a bike
B.borrow a bike
C.steal a bike

Not next to me, please!When you are traveling by plane, there are some passengers you just don’t want to have next to you.
A. 36
Perhaps you normally like them, but when you are sitting next to them on a plane it’s a different thing.
