They went to the station and bought their tickets. When the train came in, Michael broaden in first and without knowing it, dropped his ticket in the platform as he got into the carriage(车厢). Derek, who was close behind saw the ticket fall and quickly picked it up. Without a word to his friend, he put it in his pocket.
    After they had been in the train a little while, they heard the ticket inspector coming down the corridor, shouting, "tickets, please!" Michael looked for his and of course couldn't find it.
    "Oh, dear, I can't find my ticket, Derek," he said.
    "Have another look, Michael, it must be somewhere," said Derek.
    "No, I can't find it anywhere. What shall I do?"
    "Perhaps you had better hide under the seat, then the inspector won't know you are here." So Michael crawled under the seat as fast as he could and lay perfectly still. Presently the door opened and in came the inspector, "Tickers please!" he said.

Being home to the largest second-hand bookstore in the world, Hay-on-Wye is more than just a small town in Wales — it's a book heaven on the earth.

The history of Hay-on-Wye as the"town of books" began on the April Fool's Day of 1977.A man called Richard Booth jokingly called himself King of Hay and said the town was now a country! Since then, he has succeeded in building a healthy tourism industry about books. Today thousands of visitors come to Hay-on-Wye every year to look for whatever books they need.

Before Booth's great idea, Hay-on-Wye was a slowly dying town having less than 2, 000businesses. The king of Hay-on-Wye opened his first bookstore in 1961, and later encouraged his friends in the trade to come to Hay. After a few. years, he filled almost every building with books. Hay-on-Wye now has over thirty bookshops, many selling second-hand books, which has made the town pleasant for book collectors.

Hay-on-Wye has its special honour with over one million books sold here every year. Unlike other book dealers(交易商), Richard Booth doesn't centre on any one topic. He buys any type of books believing that every book is valuable and someone in the world wants it. Book lovers from all over the world come to Hay-on-Wye because a large number of books here are at low prices.

Since 1988, Hay-on-Wye has also been the place for a famous literary(文学) festival, now supported by The Guardian, which draws hundreds of thousands of visitors to see and hear big literary names from all over the world.

Once a dying small town, Hay-on-Wye is now a pleasant tourist town, with ten percent of its population working in the book business, and local businesses benefiting(得益于) from the waves of

tourists coming here in search of books.

 阅读下面短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

My son Sam is 16 and autistic (患自闭症的). It was Sam's very first day at high school. We'd set up a 1 of how he'd get home: I'd pick him up outside the 2 near his school at 3:30 p.m.

Unknown to me, very bad weather was on its way, and I was 3 . But because of his dead phone battery, I was 4 to communicate that to him. 5 , he became very upset and frightened outside the shop, exactly where I'd told him to wait.

This was 6 a beautiful old lady not only went to check on him, but took him inside her shop, 7 him down, got my phone number from him and called me. After that my son would go into her shop every afternoon, buy a drink and have a 8 .

Sam graduates this year, and I'm increasingly feeling the need to 9 the shop to let this 10 lady know that she helped Sam, and that she saved me from the situation. I'm not sure if I can 11 all of this, but at least I will get to thank her.

There are people I will not get to thank, though — the many kind strangers who have been there for Sam. And believe me, if you're wondering if this world is a complete 12 right now, I'm here to say that it is not.

So I guess this is a love letter to those of you who have helped a 13 out of the goodness of your heart. Please know that you as well as your beautiful heart and kindness are 14 , and perhaps 15 , you have made a great difference in someone's life.

The English teacher came into the classroom with test papers in his hands. He said with a smile, "I know there are too many tests for you these days, but the test today is very1 .It is different from your other tests." The teacher started to hand out the test papers to each student.

There was only a small black " X " in the middle of the paper. The students were very 2 to see that.The teacher noticed the students' surprise.Then he said, "I want you to 3 what you see there. You must finish it by yoursclves."

All the students 4 about it hard and then wrote down their answers quietly. The next day,   the teacher said, "You only paid attention to the black ' X  ' , but nobody wrote about the white paper."

The whole class listened 5 , because they worried that they might fail the exam.

Then the tcacher said, "Don't worry. I just want you to think about your 6 .The white paper is like your whole life and the black ' X  ' is just like the problems in your daily life."7 , the students understood what the test was about.

Life is a wonderful 8  , full of love and care. If you only care about the problems, you'll never 9 that they are much smaller than everything else life gives you. So it' s better to look on the bright side, 10 each moment, and find happiness in life.

 阅读下列短文, 从每小题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项

Like most parents, mine spent much time advising me to take part in activities outside school. However, they never forced me, and I never found anything I was interested in. Then one day a friend at school told me about a local dance group and asked if I wanted to go with her. So, after school we went to talk to the dance teacher. She explained everything to us and we both decided to join.

My parents were really pleased to hear I'd finally chosen dancing. They think if you develop an interest in doing something yourself, it will be easier to succeed.

I' ve now been attending the dancing classes for 3 years and I really enjoy it. We are organized into age groups, and at 16 I'm now in the oldest class. There are classes of swing dance, ballet(芭蕾舞), street dance and folk dance. I practice street dance and I'm quite good at it. I also help out leading some of the younger children.

We also take part in events like local and even national dance shows, and relatives turn up to see their children perform. My parents are proud of me as they tell me all the time.

Now I' ll be too old to continue dancing with the group. However, I have already made plans to continue with them. The dance school has become very successful and is opening new classes. The director has asked if I'd like to be one of the group leaders and of course I said" yes"!
