    I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was a strange farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I really didn’t know who she was but I had to go.

    It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn’t know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed that Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone even my own wife!” he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑闻). I was even more surprised when he told me he had put her in the barn(厩). “I couldn’t leave her in the cold!” he said. Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground.

    “She was such a good cow! I wouldn’t let anyone except a doctor touch her!” he said and cried again.

    60. The farmer wished that the writer might         .

    A. look into the matter             B. bring Milly back to life

       C. free him from a scandal          D. keep the whole thing a secret

    61. The underlined phrase in the first paragraph means “       ”.

       A. expect                               B. understand

       C. see clearly                            D. hear clearly

    62. Before he arrived at the farmer’s house, the writer expected to see Milly lying         .

       A. on the ground of a barn          B. on the floor of a room

       C. in bed in a room                D. in bed in a barn

    63. What do we know about Milly for the story?

    A. She had met with an accident.         B. She had caused a scandal.

       C. She was seriously ill.            D. She was hidden somewhere.

    64. The person who told the story is probably a        .

    A. farmer                        B. policeman

       C. country doctor                D. newspaper re5-6porter

    I was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date I just couldn’t be late for! I found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries. A. PhD. student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. I was in a huge rush, thinking of my upcoming evening. I did not want to be late for this date.

    We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped unloading her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile----warm and reassuring—and I retuned her gift by smiling back.

     “Must be a special lady,” whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers,” she said.

     “Yes, she’s special,” I said, and then to my embarrassment, the words kept coming out. “It’s only our second date, but somehow I am just having the feeling she’s ‘the one.’ ”Jokingly, I added, “The only problem is that I can’t figure out why she’d want to date a guy like me.”

     “Well, I think she’s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,” the woman said. “My husband used to bring me flowers every week-even when times were tough and we didn’t have much money. Those were incredible days; be was very romantic and---of course---- I miss him since he’s passed away.”

    I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. There was no doubt in my mind as I walked up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said “You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady.” I handed the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation.

    It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just purchased(bought). “You have a wonderful evening,” I said. I left with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers.

    I remember being slightly late for my date that night and telling my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years later, when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me, she told me that this story had helped to seal it for her-that was the night that I won her heart .

    Why was the writer in a hurry that day ? 

    A. He was to meet his girlfriend.           B. He had to go back to school soon.

    C. He was delayed by an elderly lady.       D. He had to pick up some groceries.

    What does the underlined phrase “her gift” （Paragraph 2 ） refer to ?  

    A. Her words.     B. Her smile.     C. Her flowers.     D. Her politeness.

    Why did the writer give his flowers to the elderly lady ?

    A. She told him a nice story.           B. She allowed him to pay first.

    C. She gave him encouragement.        D. She liked flowers very much.

    What is the message conveyed in the story ?

    A. Flowers are important for a date.        B. Small talk is helpful.

    C. Love and kindness are rewarding.       D. Elderly people deserve respecting.
