25、been watching the X Games on TV. Athletes from all over the world were competing in the most amazing sports. Just then his grandmother walked into the room. “I want to be extreme. Would you really let me do that? You always worry about my safety!” said Jason.“You will have to follow some rules,” sai

26、d his grandmother. “You can only ride in the park never on the streets. You have to promise to wear a helmet (頭盔). If you hurt yourself too much, I have the right to take your skateboard away. Is it a deal?”“You bet!” Jason was so excited that he jumped off the sofa. A week later he had a board and

27、a helmet. On Saturday, his grandmother dropped him off near the park. He was happy to have a grandmother who let him try new things.Kids in the park were moving quickly up and down the ramps (坡道). They flew into the air and landed as easily as birds. When he watched the X games, Jason felt like he w

28、as doing the tricks himself. But watching these kids up close, he knew that none of it was going to be easy. He felt a little bit scared.Very slowly he carried his board to the ramp. Taking a deep breath, he put his right foot on the board. He kicked off with his left foot. For a few seconds he glid

29、ed (滑行) along, just waiting to fall. Then he came to a stop. Kicking off again, he waited for the worst to happen. Again, he stayed up. The third time he kicked, lost his balance, and fell hard on his left knee.It hurt, but it was no big deal! Why had he been so scared? Now he felt calm because thin

30、gs had gone wrong, and he was fine!Next time he kicked off harder and went fast and farther. “Excellent!” said a girl as she passed him. “Extreme!” laughed Jason to himself. “Not quite.” 56.

32、D. kindness BI was eleven years old, waiting for my exam at Saraswati Vidyalaya, my school in Nagpur. “No. 12, please come forward.” Kirti, a very fat girl from my class, stepped ahead. I heard my classmates laughing and so I tried to stop them with my eyes. But my good intentions were mistaken. The

33、 next morning, my teacher, Mrs. Kamble, told me, “Ashwini, Ive received a complaint about you.” I was shocked. The girl I was protecting thought Id been laughing at her.I tried to explain but the teacher refused to hear me out. She punished me by making me stand by the door. I knew I was right. Such

34、 punishment to a class topper was simply unheard of. But, slowly, my pride disappeared. Instead of being angry, I understood the other students who have been punished at times. For the first time, I felt humbled (謙遜的). Three years later, I was in the math class. Mr. Prabhuraman, wrote an equation (方

35、程式) one hed taught us the day before on the blackboard. “Anyone who doesnt know how to solve this,” he said, “please leave the class at once.” I knew I could solve only the first two steps. But my pride made me stay there. Unfortunately, the one who was asked to solve it was me. I just stood there,

36、chalk in hand, trying not to look foolish. I prepared myself for a good talking-to (斥責(zé)), but Mr. Prabhuraman told me kindly, “Go back to your seat.” Today, two decades later, those incidents have made me think. One teacher punished me for something I didnt do; the other forgave me for something I di

37、d wrong. Both experiences had an effect on me. They remind me that no matter what you accomplish (完成), you must always be humble.59. When the very fat girl appeared, Ashwini _.

40、hroughout history. Historical evidence shows, for example, that people who lived over 3,000 years ago ate salted fish. Thousands of years ago in Egypt, salt was used to preserve (保存) the dead. Stealing salt was considered a major crime (罪行) during some periods of history. In the eighteenth century,

41、for example, if a person was caught stealing salt, he could be put in prison and his ears could be cut off.In the Roman Empire, one of the most important roads was the one that carried salt from the salt mines to Rome. Guards were stationed along the route to protect against salt thieves, and they r

42、eceived their pay in salt, thus bringing the English word, salary. Any guard who fell asleep while on duty was thought to be “not worth his salt”, and as a result he would get a little less salt on his next payday. The expression, “not worth his salt”, is still used today in English.In the modern wo

43、rld salt has many uses beyond the dining table. It is used in making glass and airplane parts, in the growing of crops, and in the killing of weeds (雜草). It is also used to make water soft, to melt (融化) ice on roads and highways, to make soap, and to fix colors in cloth. Salt can be got in various w

48、l blocks of letters in such a way that written material could be printed and mass-produced. Few people could read before Guttenberg made the invention, but once books became less expensive, more Europeans could read and write.Block printing existed long before Gutenberg.

49、ood blocks to print books as early as 868, but a new set of woodcuts (木刻印版) had to be made for each book. Producing one book was not easy; producing all kinds of books was more difficult.

50、t longer than other inks used in his time. We dont know much about Gutenberg because he was not famous during his lifetime. He was born in Germany about 1400. In 1448, Gutenberg developed signatures for each number, letter, and punctuation mark (標(biāo)點符號). He then built the molds (模型) to hold the signat

51、ures in place. Gutenberg published the first mass-produced book: a 1,282 page Bible. To this day, more copies of the Bible have been printed than any other book. Copies of Gutenbergs invention spread throughout Europe, but the German goldsmith did not get rich from his invention. Some officials deno

52、unced the invention of printing because they feared that it would spread bad ideas. By 1500 there were 1,700 printing presses in Europe.
