A young waitress named Mary watched him move towards a table by the window. She ran over to him, and said with a smile, “Here, sir. Let me give you a hand.”
Without saying a word, he gave her a smile. She pulled the chair away from the table and helped him sit down. Then she put his cane against the table so that he could reach it. In a soft, clear voice, he said, “Thank you] miss.”
“You’re welcome, sir,” she replied. “I’ll be back in a moment, and if you need anything, just wave at me!”
After he had finished a good meal. Mary brought him the change. She handed him his cane, and walked with him to the front door. Holding the door open for him, she said, “Come back and see us, sir!” The old man turned around and smiled.

We recycle(回收利用) rubbish, so why not language? Recycling language means using vocabulary that you have learnt before again and again. However, unlike rubbish that piles up(堆积)in our environment, if we do not recycle language, we simply forget it. So how do you recycle language?
There are basically three ways to do it. The first is through reading. Go back to your favourite articles and read them once more. Just reread them and do not worry about each vocabulary item. If there are some that you are not sure about, make a guess and you will probably guess right. The second way to recycle is through writing. Look at some of your favourite articles and write either a short paragraph or a few sentences in your own words. After you have done this a few times, go back and read through what you have written, checking vocabulary functions. Don‘t worry if you have made mistakes. That‘s how you learn. The third way to recycle language is by having an imaginary chat with yourself about your favourite articles at home. You can pretend there is someone with you who speaks English and tell him what you are thinking about or how you feel.
( )61. According to the passage, recycling language means ______.
A. repeating vocabulary at times
B. revising vocabulary at a proper time
C. learning new vocabulary as much as possible
D. using vocabulary that we have learnt very often
( )62. If we recycle language, it may ______.
A. be kept in our mind
B. be forgotten easily
C. pile up in our environmentD. disappear from our mind soon
( )63. The second way to recycle language tells us to .
A. rewrite our favourite articles.
B. pay more attention to mistakes
C. practise spoken English with someone
D. pay no attention to vocabulary functions
( )64. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in recycling language?
A. Reading.
B. Listening.
C. Writing.
D. Speaking.
( )65. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?
A. Why to Recycle Language
B. How to Learn Vocabulary
C. How to Recycle Language
D. Why to Learn Vocabulary

When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father’s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.
Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie’s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock（码头）, feet dangling（摇晃）, and got ready for a big meal.
Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we’d bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw away the rest.
Bernie was my father’s idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.
What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.
For many years, I forgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.
Well, I’ve relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away.
( )66. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling ______.
A. relaxed B. worried C. hungry D. proud
( )67. How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon?
A. They ate it in a polite way.
B. They only ate its best part.
C. They ate every part of it.
D. They shared only one piece.
( )68. In the eyes of the writer’s father, Bernie ______.
A. was just a rich businessman
B. worked hard all the time
C. lived a rich but healthy life
D. knew how to make money
( )69. The underlined part “the heart of the watermelon” in the last paragraph refers to ______.
A. the best part of the watermelon
B. the writer’s busy life
C. the writer’s decision of making money
D. the writer’s hope of enjoying life
( )70. It can be learned from the passage that ______.
A. one has to work hard to reach his goal
B. a friend in need is a friend in deed
C. watermelon is the healthiest fruit
D. one should keep work-life balance

Roger, a young man from China, has taught Chinese in a primary school in England for three years. A lot of children like his class and he enjoys teaching them very much. All the pupils are quite interested in what Roger teaches them. They learn quickly and do everything carefully.
One day he said to the children, “People in a lot of Asian countries wear white clothes at funerals, but people in America and in Europe wear white in the weddings because white means purity and happiness. What colour does an English woman wear when she gets married?” Mary said, “White, sir, because she is happy.” “That is good, Mary,” Roger said. “You are quite right. She wears white because she is happy.”
But then one boy in the class put up his hand. “Yes, Dick?” Roger said, “Do you have a question?” “Yes,” Dick said. “Why do men wear black in our country when they get married, sir ?”
