         I once heard someone say, “We don’t remember days; we remember moments.” However, in today’s busy life we often forget to enjoy small pleasures while we make big plans.

         In the race to be better or best, we sometimes lose sight of “just being”. And just being and enjoying a beautiful moment can provide some of life’s greatest pleasures. A fire on a cold winter night, a good book, an impressive sunset, a great meal, or a timeless moment with your child or a friend ... these moments, if we stop long enough to enjoy, are the essence (本质) of life.

         I love to fish, especially for large-mouth bass (鲈鱼). About three years ago I was watching television late at night and got this crazy idea to go fishing in the lake behind my house. Of course, my wife thought I was nuts. It was almost midnight! I told her I was fine and took off.

         I walked out to a warm summer breeze and looked up at the starry sky and breathtaking full moon. I allowed my senses to soak (浸泡) in every second — the sweet smell of flowers, the sound of every cricket (蟋蟀), the moon’s reflection dancing off the water — it was a perfect night.

         After walking across a small field, I took out a flashlight, and selected a lure (饵). On my first cast I got a bass weighing over five pounds, one of the largest I had ever caught. I gently put it back into the water and continued my midnight adventure. During the next two hours I caught seventeen bass, all between two and five pounds. Although I’ve fished for almost fifty years, no fishing memory can top that night.

         But that night provided far more than a fishing memory. It was a life memory. It provided me a picture of what life could be like if I just slowed down enough to enjoy the moments. On my way back to the house, as I walked through the tall grass, I took one last look at the sky and stopped to say, “Thank you, God, for giving me this night.”

64. The purpose of the passage is to ______.

A. suggest people should make big plans                                   

B. tell people to do what they like

C. advise people to enjoy beautiful moments

D. encourage people to follow their dreams

65. What does the underlined word “nuts” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Determined.                       B. Ill.         C. Tired.                           D. Crazy.

A. the description of the night

B. the author’s fishing experience

C. the author’s attitude towards life

D. what the author did that night

B

A sign is another kind of language. Here are some of them that you see on the roads.

Number one is a sign with the number thirty on it. When drivers see this sign, they must not go at more than thirty kilometers an hour. We see this sign when we are getting near a town. Number two is a sign that we’re near a crossing. We must drive carefully. Number three is a sign that there is a bend in the road. Again, we must drive slowly and carefully. It is not safe to go round a bend very fast. Number four is a sign that there is another road coming in from the right. There is a junction at this place. Number five is a sign that there is a hill and number six is a sign that the road gets narrow. Drivers must go slowly and carefully. Number seven has the word “SCHOOL” on it. This is a sign that there is a school at the side of the street or the road. Perhaps there are children going to or leaving school. So drivers must look carefully and go slowly. Number eight is a sign with the letter “P” on it. The letter “P” means “Parking”. At some places, there’re the signs “No parking” or “No waiting”. If a driver leaves his car near one of these signs, a policeman may come and write down the number of his car.

61. At the places where you see Sign 1, ________.

A. you are already out of a town

B. you still have thirty kilometers to go

C. there must be a town thirty kilometers away

D. there must be many houses and buildings not far away

63. You have to drive not only slowly but also carefully when you find________.

A. each of the eight signs              B. either of Signs 2 and 3

C. all of Signs 3, 5, 6 and 7            D. any of Signs 3, 5, 6 and 7

64. A driver can leave his car________.

A. near Sign 8 at any time

B. near a sign with “No parking” on it

C. near a sign with “No waiting” if there’re no police there

D. near a sign with “P” on it in the daytime

Many teenagers(青少年) feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members don’t know them as well as their friends do.
