30、g slowly can help a person to avoid all accidentsCOur plan was to drive into Cambridge, catch the 7:34 train to Liverpool Street Station, then to separate and meet again for lunch. We should have arrived at Liverpool at 9:19, but due to a typical London fog, the train had to move along so slowly tha

31、t it was not until 10:30 that it got there. In spite of our late arrival, Joan, my wifes sister, decided that she would go to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London while we went shopping. It was only after her sister had disappeared into the fog that my wife realized that we hadnt decided wher

32、e we should meet for lunch. Since I had our three tickets for the concert in my pocket, this was indeed a problem. There seemed to be nothing we could do except taking a taxi to the Tower of London, and try to find her there. Needless to say, we didnt find her. It was now one oclock, and the concert

33、 began at 2:30. “Perhaps she will think of waiting outside the concert hall,” suggested my wife hopefully. By this time the fog was so thick that road traffic had to stop, and the only way to get there was by underground railway. Hand in hand we felt our way along the road to where we thought the ne

34、arest station should be. An hour later we were still trying to find it. Just as I was about to lose my temper completely when we met a blind man tapping his way confidently through the fog. With his help we found Tower Hill tube station just fifty yards down the road. By now it was far too late even

35、 to try to get to the concert hall before the performance began at 2:30, so we decided to return to Cambridge. It took seven long hours instead of the usual two to make that journey. Nor were we able to get any food and drink on the train. Tired and hungry we finally reached home at ten, opening the

36、 door to the sound of the telephone bell. It was Joan; she had seen the Crown Jewels, had managed to get another ticket for concert, and had had a wonderful dinner at a restaurant near the hotel where she decided to stay for the night. Now she was ringing to discover whether we had had an equally su

37、ccessful day.48. Why was Joan separated from her sister and her brother-in-law? A. they could not see each other because of the fog. B. Joan had not seen Crown Jewels. C.

38、to do in the afternoon? A. Go to the concert. B. See the Crown Jewels. C. Return to Cambridge.D. Go shopping.50. The reason why they didnt all meet for lunch was that _. A. They lost their way in the fog B. they forgot to make necessary arrangement C. they waited at different places and didnt meet e

39、ach other D. the couple couldnt find the underground station51. Its quite clear that for Joan the trip to London had been _. A. spilt by the fogB. quite tiring C. rather disappointingD. very enjoyableDSome years ago, on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the

40、old swimming hole behind his house. He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator (美洲鳄) was swimming toward the shore.His father working in the yard saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In utter fear, he ran toward the water, yelling

41、 to his son as loudly as he could.Hearing his voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U turn to swim to his father. It was too late. Just as he reached his father, the alligator reached him. From the dock, the father grabbed his little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs.

42、 That began an incredible tug of war (拔河) between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the father, but the father was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, took aim and shot the alligator.Remarkably, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the vic

43、ious attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his fathers fingernails dug into his fresh in his effort to hang on to the son he loved.The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy asked if he would show his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs. And then, he said to the repor

44、ter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my dad wouldnt let go.”You and I can identify with that boy. We have scars, too. No, not from an alligator, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But, some

45、wounds, my friend, are because someone has refused to let go. In the midst of your struggle, someone has been there holding on to you.If you have the scars of someones love on your arms, be very, very grateful. Someone in your life did not and will not ever let you go.Never judge another persons sca

48、necessarily mean pain at all times55. Which of the following viewpoints will the writer most probably agree with? A. Be grateful to a painful past, for you can always learn something from it.B. Other peoples criticism or blame may hurt you, but if it is for your own good, you should take it thankful

49、ly.C. The swimming hole of life is filled with danger, but you dont need to be too serious about it as someone will never let you go.D.
