题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Earlier this week I was at a store after the holiday season, and while waiting in line I  31  a very stressed out Dad with his two sons waiting in line to purchase a car seat for the younger child.

The father was asking if he could buy the display model because it would be   32  than the others. The cashier  33  that he could buy the display model   34 that there was no box for it. He said that was just   35 with him.

Then he asked if there were any additional coupons(优惠券)to bring the  36 down just a little bit more. The cashier was doing her best to  37 some additional savings coupons for this young father; but wasn't  38 much of anything in her drawer.

I used to be a people-watcher, but found that as I  39 this activity for about five minutes I was beyond  40 to help -- and I had no idea why, but before I could really think about it I found myself digging through my  41 for the 10 to 15 dollars in coupons I knew I had.

But I found nothing. I gave him $20 cash. The father said he couldn’t  42 it, but appreciated my offer. The cashier was  43 in the same mode as I was in wanting to help this young family; and took the money toward his  44 with a smile on her face - the seat  45 coming to around $50 instead of the original $90+.

As the Dad collected his small children and began to  46 he looked at me and said, " You really shouldn't have done that but I thank you so much -- you just made certain that we will all get to eat today."

My reply was simple. Be  47 or years from now, simply do the same or something extra for someone else you don't know; and that would  48 me tenfold(十倍地).

What really got to me out of this whole experience is that it made me realize a small thing can have a huge  49 in the long run; as long as the chain isn't  50 .

The computer is a useful machine. It is the most important invention in many years. The oldest kind of computer is the abacus (算盘), invented in China centuries ago, but the first large, modem computer was built in 1946. A computer then could do maths problems very fast.

Today computers are used in many ways and can do many kinds of work. In a few years the computer may touch the life of everyone, even people in the faraway villages.

In the last few years, there have been great changes in computers. They are getting smaller and smaller, and computing faster and faster. Many scientists agree that computers can now do many things, but they cannot do everything. Who knows what the computers of tomorrow will be like? Will computers bring good things or bad things to people? The scientists of today will have to decide how to use the computers of tomorrow.
