Look! There are thousands of people waiting to buy tickets home in the railway station. Each time when Spring Festival comes, buying tickets of train trip would be very hard. And things seem to be getting worse and worse, although we have greatly increased the mileage(总里程) of railway network and speeded up trains. Why? It's because too many people want to go back home to spend Spring Festival with their family. Many people become angry with the Ministry(部)of Railways. They wonder why it is hopeless for them to get the tickets from the railway station. Instead, they sometimes can only buy them from ticket scalpers at much higher price.
The Ministry of Railways estimated(估计) that about 216 million passengers would travel by train during the 40-day peak period(高峰期) during the 2010 Spring Festival holiday. The number of travelers will be 8%higher than that of 2009. This problem even attracted the President Hu Jintao's attention. He wrote a note to Liu Zhijun, Minister of the Ministry of Railways, asking him to make sure of a "smooth and safe" transportation. Afterwards, officials from the Ministry of Railways said they would try their best not to let any ticket-buyers spend Spring Festival at the railway station.
(1)What does the underlined word "scalper" in the first paragraph mean?
A.代售点
B.售票员
C.票贩
D.赌徒
(2)Many people can't buy the tickets from the railway station, and they sometimes can only buy them from the scalpers .
A.expensively
B.wrongly

【题目】根据短文内容的理解,选择正确答案。
I didn't think I had a passion(激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show. It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.
That day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye(吸引我的世界). It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫褴褛). He was homeless. That didn't interest me, for I had seen many like him before.
But in some ways he was different. This man was not sitting down with a sad expression(表情). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍贵) thing he had.
"Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought(尽管) he's homeless?" I asked.
"He bought it," she replied. I was still unable to understand.
"But if he's homeless, why doesn't he use the money to buy food or clothes? He wasted it on something he doesn't need."
"Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren't the most important things. We need happiness, too."
The man must care too much about music to buy a radio instead of food clothes. I soon realized(意识到) that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there's nothing to look forward to.
Since then I've never gone a day without thinking of what's truly important. A home, a meal, clothes—these things are only part of the picture. What's often forgotten is that we all need a pleasure, a light in a dark day. We all need a passion.
(1)How would Sarah spend her days long ago?
A.She watched TV all day.
B.She used to read a lot.
C.She did nothing but thinking.
D.She was always sleeping.
(2)Who caught Sarah's eye when her mum stopped the car at a red light?
A.A man dressed in rags.
B.A man dressed in new clothes.
C.A man sitting down with a sad expression.
D.A man singing happily to the music.
(3)Why was the man different?
A.He wore new clothes.
B.He was sitting with a sad expression.
C.He was homeless.
D.He lived an active life though he was very poor.
(4)What did Sarah do after she understood the fact?
A.She thought all day without doing anything.
B.She bought a radio just like the man's.
C.She had a passion with everything from then on.
D.She always danced to the music on the radio.
(5)What can we learn from the passage?
A.Sometimes food and clothes are the most important things in our life.
B.Happiness is the key to life and it is what we are looking forward to.
C.Music is more important than food or clothes.
D.Money is the most important thing for a person.

That night, Sue quarreled with her mother, and she ran out of the house. Since she left in a hurry, she didn't take any money with her.
When she passed a noodle shop, she suddenly felt very hungry. She wished for a bowl of noodles, but she had no money. The owner saw her standing outside and asked her if she would like a bowl of noodle. She nodded but then she said that she didn't have any money.
“Okay, I'll treat you.” the owner said. A few minutes later, the owner brought her a steaming bowl of noodles. After eating some bites, Sue cried.
“What is it?” the owner asked.
“Nothing. I am just touched by your kindness! Even a stranger on the street gives me a bowl of noodles, but my mother chased me out of the house after a quarrel. She is so cruel!”
“Girl, why did you think so? Think again. I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you were touched. Your mother had raised you since you were very born, why weren't you grateful and argued with your mom instead?”
Sue was really surprised after hearing that.
On the way home, Sue thought it over about what to say to her mother. She stopped in front of the door and saw her mother worried and tried after looking for her everywhere.
