Would you like to adopt an animal? Although this sounds very unusual, some children have done just this. The Natural Zoo has given people the chance to adopt animals by paying for all of its food for one year. One of the animals that needed parents was a young tiger named Brocky. The people at the zoo said that it would cost about $900 a year for the food for Brocky.
Not many boys and girls have $900 to spend. That is why several hundred children and grown-ups each have sent a little money to the zoo to help pay for Brocky’s food. Some children sent in only a quarter because that was all the money they had. Other children sent in more money than that.
Since so many people sent money to the zoo to help pay for Brocky’s food, he now will be able to eat as much as he wants. Brocky surely must be a happy tiger to know that he has so many adopted parents. Many children must also be happy to know that they have helped to feed him. It really will be cool for those children to go to the Natural Zoo to visit their adopted tiger Brocky.
53. Brocky is ________.
A. an animal zoo B. an adopted child
C. a tiger without children’s love D. a tiger in need of adoption
54. Several hundred people give money to the zoo to help Brocky because ________.
A. its food is too expensive for one person to afford
B. people don’t want to spend too much money on Brocky
C. people don’t love Brocky enough
D. the zoo forces them to do so
55. Children will be ________ if they go to the zoo to visit the tiger Brocky.
A. frightened B. excited and happy C. nervous D. surprised
56. With so many people’s money, Brocky now can ________.
A. play with many toys B. live without being hungry
C. eat meat every day D. have an air-conditioned room to live in
57. We can infer (推断) from the passage that ________.
A. zoos are too poor to feed the animals B. there are too many animals in the zoo
C. many people are kind to animals D. children love animals better than adults do
58. The underlined word “adopt” probably means “________”.
A choose and raise B. look after C. buy D. give a name

As time went by, I began to understand my parents gave me ____63____ more than just a rusty (生锈的) old bike. They gave me a life lesson about love. When you give something out of love, it doesn’t matter what it is in fact. What matters is the love that is in it.

Answer the questions. (根据文章内容回答)
That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in the city I lived. There I was walking home in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. I was having trouble dealing with my job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and the life in this awful place.
As I walked down the empty street under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. “Run!” I told myself and began to do so, both to keep warm and keep away from any possible danger.
About a block from my flat, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun, but the street was empty. The sound had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. I didn’t realize what the sound had been until I reached my flat and unlocked the door. It had been my wallet falling to the street.
I wasn’t cold or tired any more. I ran out of the door and back to where I had heard the sound. Although I searched the street for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard a rubbish truck stop next to me. A voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and a man jumped out. “Is this what you’re looking for?” He asked, with a wallet in his hand.
It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night. However, I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life.

【原文】You may think that inventions are far away from your everyday life. In fact, almost every one can invent.
For example, the inventors of the dishwasher loved to give dinner parties. But she found it took too long to wash her dishes by hand and too many of them broke. She decided that a machine could do the job faster and with fewer mistakes. So, in 1886, she set out to make one for herself.
Most inventions are created to solve a problem. So, the first and most important step is to find the problem. The next step is to think about possible solutions. An invention is a new way of solving a problem. So think of many unusual ways. You can often come up with a solution to a problem by looking at it from a different angle (角度) and thinking about it in a new way.
Most inventions are not completely new. They do not come out of nowhere, but of things or ideas that already exist (存在的). And the hardest part of inventing, even for a lot of inventors, is coming up with a problem and finding a solution. Once you have an idea, you can always get help building your invention.

Would you like to adopt an animal? Although this sounds very unusual, some children have done just this. The Natural Zoo has given people the chance to adopt animals by paying for all of its food for one year. One of the animals that needed parents was a young tiger named Brocky. The people at the zoo said that it would cost about $900 a year for the food for Brocky.
Not many boys and girls have $900 to spend. That is why several hundred children and grown-ups each have sent a little money to the zoo to help pay for Brocky’s food. Some children sent in only a quarter because that was all the money they had. Other children sent in more money than that.
Since so many people sent money to the zoo to help pay for Brocky’s food, he now will be able to eat as much as he wants. Brocky surely must be a happy tiger to know that he has so many adopted parents. Many children must also be happy to know that they have helped to feed him. It really will be cool for those children to go to the Natural Zoo to visit their adopted tiger Brocky.
53. Brocky is ________.
A. an animal zoo B. an adopted child

Answer the questions. (根据文章内容回答)
That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in the city I lived. There I was walking home in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. I was having trouble dealing with my job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and the life in this awful place.
As I walked down the empty street under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. “Run!” I told myself and began to do so, both to keep warm and keep away from any possible danger.
About a block from my flat, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun, but the street was empty. The sound had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. I didn’t realize what the sound had been until I reached my flat and unlocked the door. It had been my wallet falling to the street.
I wasn’t cold or tired any more. I ran out of the door and back to where I had heard the sound. Although I searched the street for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard a rubbish truck stop next to me. A voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and a man jumped out. “Is this what you’re looking for?” He asked, with a wallet in his hand.
It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night. However, I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life.
