I sent him on his way，and I walked away towards my car．Just as he was going out of a short way，something in me clicked，and I offered him a（43）D．He gratefully accepted，and he （44）Bto show me his ID．I declined，but（45）Dmy hand and introduced myself．He said his name was Mario．
Mario followed me to my car．When I unlocked the passenger door for him，he didn't get in（46）CI assured him it was fine．As we sat in the car together，I suddenly got （47）A．"If this guy wanted，he could hurt me and take my car"，I （48）Ccalling my brother as a safety precaution （預(yù)防措施），but then I felt determined not to feel scared．
Mario and I got into some （49）B．He told me about his family in Mexico，how he works（50）Cdoesn't ever earn enough，how he （51）Blive near Fresno and work on the farms but now earns more in the Bay Area．It was good talking to him，though I couldn't shake the nervousness completely．I （52）Basking him questions that would give me clues as to whether he was being truthful．
When we got into East Palo Alto，I pulled into a gas station and told him it was as （53）Bas I could take him．He quickly got out and （54）Dme several times，saying he could find his way home from there．
Thinking back on it，I am glad to give a ride to Mario．Although it was （55）C，I think such things should be done without fear，or not at all．I wouldn't say I'd pick up a hitchhiker（搭車人）again，but I know that if I did，I would make sure I could offer more love and less fear．

20．Tea，the most typical English drink，became established in Britain because of the influence of a foreign princess，Catherine of Braganza，the queen of Charles II．As a lover of tea since her childhood in Portugal，she brought tea-drinking to the English royal court and set a trend for the beverage in the 17th century．The fashion soon spread beyond the circle of the nobility to the middle classes，and tea became a popular drink at the London coffee houses where people met to do business and discuss events of the day．Many employers served a cup of tea to their workers in the middle of the morning，thus inventing a lasting British institution，the"tea break．"However，drinking tea in social settings outside the workplace was beyond the means of the majority of British people．It came with a high price tag and tea was taxed as well．
Around 1 800，the seventh Duchess of Bedford，Anne Maria，began the popular practice
of"afternoon tea，"a ceremony taking place at about four o'clock．Until then，people did not
usually eat or drink anything between lunch and dinner．At approximately the same time，the
Earl of Sandwich popularized a new way of eating bread-in thin slices，with something like jam or cucumbers between them．Before long，a small meal at the end of the afternoon，involving tea and sandwiches，had become part of the British way of life．
As tea became much cheaper during the 19th century，its popularity spread right through all corners of the British society．Thus，tea became Britain's favorite drink．In working-class households，it was served with the main meal of the day，eaten when workers returned home after a day's labor．This meal has become known as"high tea．"Today，tea can be drunk at any time of the day，and accounts for over two-fifths of all drinks consumed in Britain-with the exception of water．

32．What is mainly discussed about tea in the text？A
A．Its development in Britain．
B．Its traditional ways of drinking．
C．Its influence around the world．
D．Its popularity in Europe．
33．What does the underlined words"the beverage"probably refer to？A
A．Tea drinking．    
B．A small meal．
C．A way of eating b read．
D．A choice of drinks．
34．Why was tea unable to be accepted as a common drink in Britain in the 17th century？D
A．It was merely served in London．
B．It was taxed as an alcoholic drink．
C．It was forbidden in business settings．
D．It was too expensive for most people．
35．How is the text organized？C
A．By cause and effect．
B．By comparison．
C．In time order．
D．In frequency order．

6．Davion Navar Henry Only has spent his whole life in Florida's foster （收養(yǎng)的） care system．His mother was in prison when he was born，and when he did an Internet search for her name in June this year he learned she'd died just a few weeks earlier．He's been moved from here to there throughout his childhood without ever finding somewhere he really belongs．As a teenager now，Davion is starting to feel like he is running out of time-at risk of becoming one of the more than 23，000 youths each year who simply"age out"of the foster care system at age 18 or older and are left on their own without ever finding a family connection．

3．Did you know that a turtle（烏龜）can lay 12eggs in one minute？A large sea turtle lays around 150eggs at a time．She lays all these eggs in just a few minutes．．
Large sea turtles live in the warm seas of the world．Except when they lay their eggs，they spend their whole lives in the water．When it is time to lay their eggs，the females swim to land．．
They usually return to the place where they themselves were born．How they find their way back there is unknown．When they reach shore，the big，heavy turtles crawl slowly up to the high water mark．Using their flippers（腳蹼），they pull themselves along the sand．They must struggle like mountain climbers．When they finally reach dry sand，they rest before beginning the difficult task of laying eggs．
The turtles lay the eggs in deep holes and cover them with warm sand．The sand protects the eggs from harm．Then the females leave them．After a few weeks，if you happened to be walking along the beach，you might see the sand begin to shake．You maysee tiny black balls coming out of the sand．The tiny heads of baby turtles!
