Describing the event later, Bannister said, “On the way to the track the wind blew strongly. As I lined up for the start I glanced at the flag. It moved gently now. This was the moment when I made my decision.”

“The gun fired. My legs  41  to meet no resistance, as if I was pushed forward by some unknown force. The noise from the faithful  42  gave me greater strength. I felt the moment of a lifetime had come.”

Have you noticed that the majority of human beings seem to focus on the negative? Bad news is often seen in the newspapers, television shows and magazines, but good news is often overlooked.

I saw a woman I was not very familiar with. She is a beautiful woman; every time I see her, I am struck by the smile on her face that can light up a whole room. So at one time I walked up to her and said, “You know, you are like liquid sunshine! Every time I see you, you give me so much joy.” I was not quite prepared for her reaction. She was blown away. Her eyes seemed about to shed tears, and she said, “That is so sweet! That is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me!” It was as if nobody had ever told her how beautiful her appearance was. I was extremely moved by the moment I had shared with this woman.

Why not take notice of the positive and spread a little sunshine? When you are looking for beauty, you will begin to see it more and more. When you discover it, don’t be afraid to appreciate  it. Not only will it make them feel good, it will make you feel good as well. I truly believe the saying, “What goes around, comes around.” When you show kindness and sincerity, you will receive it back. You may even discover — much to your surprise — that you become the friend of someone you would never have expected to get along with.

60. The woman had tears in her eyes because __________.

the man’s behavior was so rude

she was nervous about the man’s words

the man told her the fact she didn’t know

she was so excited at the man’s praise

61. Which of the following can take the place of “What goes around, comes around”?

A. The wise appreciate one another. 

B. Respect yourself, or no one else will respect you.

C. There is kindness to be found everywhere.

D. Everybody should learn to praise others.

62. The best title for the passage probably is _____.

Spread a little sunshine

B. Everyone likes to be praised

C. Pay attention to the positive

D. Each of us has good points

　  Life on land probably began about 430 million years ago, though it has stayed in the water for perhaps as much as 3,000 million years. When we think of the first thing on land, we probably think of strange animals coming out of the oceans, but in fact no animals could have been living if plants had not been on land first. Plants had to be on land before animals arrived. They supplied the first land animals with the surrounding and food necessity, since then, the plants, are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy.

　　The first plants to stay out of the water were probably certain kinds of algae（海藻）which were followed by other plants that grew close to the ground and needed water in which to reproduce. Once the move to land had been made, however, evolution（进化）happened quickly. By the end of 100 million years, plants had developed their roots（根), and some had got tree -like forms since height was very important in gaining sunlight. About 300 million years ago, much of the world was covered with forests of huge trees. In most ways they were like modern trees. They had roots, leaves, wood, but mostly they had not developed seeds.
