　　Hotlines have become common in China. Some radio broadcasting stations use hotlines to encourage the listeners to take part in the talk shows.

　　That's a good idea. Yet,　the fact is,　some people do nothing but break the whole programme.

　　Some people know little about the topic under discussion. Sometimes they do not even know what the host(主持人)is talking about. So the host has to tell the caller what the show is about .Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express his hope and show his ignorance(无知).Then the host has to answer and explain-how silly this is !It wastes a lot of time .

　　It seems that some people phone the hotlines in fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They don't care what the topic is ,　whether they themselves are interested in or how silly they appear to be.

　　I'm totally bored(厌烦)by those people . It's necessary for radio stations to improve the hotline programmes. In my opinion,　 if a caller doesn't know what is going on,　 the operator should not let the caller take part in it.

　　52. The sentence,　"Some people do nothing but break the whole programme." may tell us that ______.

　　A. radio stations use hotlines in a wrong way B. it is a fact

　　C. it is a good idea D. some people have unclear thoughts

　　A.　for the host works hard B. because of the caller's ignorance

　　C. that some people who don't care what the topic is must have realized that they appear to be silly

　　D. what the hotline programmes are

　　World Cup Dad

　　For most of my 15 years, my father usually said very little to my mother and me. He preferred reading the newspaper or watching football matches on television to talking to his family.

　　Everything changed one morning. As soon as I came downstairs to breakfast, I could see that he wasn’t his usual reserved (缄默的) self. “Can’t wait! FIFA World Cup! Big match! Must see!”1 quickly figured out what ail the excitement was about: Dad is a big football fan.

　　I had never been interested in football, but Dad’s excitement that morning made me more and more curious. I had to find out why this sport was making my normally reserved father act like a five-year-old on his first trip to Disneyland.

　　Dad decided that we should all eat at a little German restaurant so that we could watch the World Cup while eating. Secretly, I think he was hoping to turn Mum and me into football fans.

　　The match started a few minutes after we entered the restaurant. As I was eating my meal, a loud noise came from the television. Surprised, I looked up at the TV: “Why is that man jumping up and down?” Dad patiently explained:“That’s Papa Bouba Diop, my son. It’s normal for them to jump up and down after they’ve scored.”

　　Dad explained almost everything to me. His monosyliabic (单音节的) answers were a thing of the past. I loved the new Dad! I watched the rest of the match, becoming more and more interested. When I told my father that I planned to watch more matches with him, he smiled and gave me a wink (眨眼). At long last we had something in common.

　　Football has really helped Dad and me get closer and form a stronger relationship with each other. Who says football is only about 22 men running after a silly ball?

　　56.Which of the following words can best describe the authur’s father?

　　59.What can we learn from the text?

　　Most of you would probably say that what makes you truly happy is your family and the love you share in your relationships, and I couldn’t agree more. But money comes into play in those relationships.

　　When I talk about money this way to a group, there is always someone who comes up to me and says, “Suze, you are so wrong. Money isn’t the key to lifethis is!” At which point their wallet flies open and they show me a photo of their family.

　　That’s when things get interesting, because I start asking them questions: Did you take that photo with your own camera? It looks like a beautiful beach, was the photo taken on a family vacation? Do you hope to help those beautiful boys and girls go to college?

　　As their answers are “yes”, I ask them how they provide all of that for their family. That’s when they understand that I had it right.

　　I totally agree that family and friends are of great importance to our well being; without meaningful relationships, there’s no chance of ever being truly happy. That’s why, every Saturday night, I end my CNBC show with the following words:“People first. Then money. Then things.”

　　How we deal with the money we have also plays into our happiness. Over the past few decades (十年), the percentage of Americans who say they’re happy hasn’t changed much, while at the same time the average income has doubled. So we have more money, but we’re not much happier on average.

　　A paradox (悖论)? Far from it. My sense is that while we’re making more money, we arent’t making more of the money we make. We have to pay for a lot of things, and we have to worry about saving for retirement (退休) in a way that our parents and grandparents never did. And as many of you know, it’s really hard to increase your happiness when you’ve got a lot of money worries.

　　Do you agree, or am I way off base? I’d love to know what do you think about the money/happiness connection.

　　60.Why do people often show the author their family photos?

　　[A] They hope to show money is very important.

　　[B] They want to prove they can afford a holiday.

　　[C] They think a good family makes them truly happy.

　　[D] They believe a happy person considers people first.

　　61.Why did the authur ask the group questions in Paragraph 3 ?

　　[A] To persuade them to save for the future. '

　　[B] To ask for advice on holidays abroad.

　　[C] To know more about each person.

　　[D] To show them what he meant.

　　62.Which of the following arguments does the author want to make?
