or surfing (浏览)websites. There are some games for free. We can meet new and
interesting people in the chat room. We can also listen to music and see films.
Now, there is a lot of service on the Internet such as online banking, job
finding and ticket buying. We can also do shopping and find nearly all kinds of
goods. Sometimes we can find something that is quite good but very cheap.

My sister Electra was leaving a s mall shop. She was pushing a shopping cart(手
推车) and trying to put the change(找零)into her pocket at the same time. While
she was doing this, she dropped a quarter (25 分硬币). Carefully she bent over to
pick it up. To her surprise, an old man walked towards her. With a quarter in his
hand, he said, “Here's the quarter you dropped, young lady.”
My sister replied, “Oh, I've found mine. That must be yours. “
“No, I think it's yours. I found it on the ground back there,” he said. “It's
not mine. Why don't you keep it? I have plenty at home. I collect quarters.”
“Really?” my sister asked. “What are you going to do with them?”
“I have over 9,000 quarters. I have always dreamed of driving across the country
through the northern states(州)and then down to California and back to New York,
but now I'm too old to do that, so instead I think I'll buy a TV,” he explained
to her.
“Oh,” my sister said. “Don't give up your dream of traveling. I know someone
who took the train and had a lovely trip. Why don't you try that?”
“Why did I never think of that?” the old man said, sounding hopeful of this
new idea. “I'll think about that and look into it. Thank you for telling me.”
My sister told me the story and said, “I lust don't want to see him giving
up his dream and buying a TV! I'm glad I dropped that quarter. Perhaps what I said
will change his life.”

The crab is a living clock. It tells the time of the day by the colour of its
skin, which is dark by day and pale by night. The crab's changing skin colour is
a regular twenty-four hour cycle(周期)that follows the daily rhythm(循环)of the
sun.
Does the crab really keep time, or is its skin simply affected by the sun's
rays(光线),changing colour with the amount of the sunlight? To find out the answer,
scientists kept some crabs in a dark room for two months. Even without daylight
the crabs' skin colour continued to change.
The change probably had something with the rhythm of the sun, to help protect
the crab from the sunlight and enemies. After millions of years it has become
completely regular inside the living body of the crab.
Scientists noticed that once each day the colour of the crab is especially dark,
and that each day this appears about fifty minutes later than the day before. From
this they discovered that each crab follows not only the rhythm of the sun but also
that of the tides(潮汐).The crab's darkest period(一段时间)is the time of low tide
on the beach where it is caught.
33. The crab's changing colour _________________.
A. tells the crab what time it is
B. protects the crab from the
sunlight
C. keeps the crab warm
D. gives the crab a lot of energy
34. Scientists studied crabs in order to find out ____________.
A. why they change colour
C. whether they change colour
B. how to use them as clocks
D. where they can be caught
35. When the crabs were kept in the dark,__________.
A. they didn't change colour
B. they changed colour more
quickly
C. they changed colour more slowly
D. they changed colour as usual
36. The crab is like a clock because its colour changes__________.
A. in a regular 24-hour rhythm
C. with the sun's rays
B. at low tide
D. every fifty minutes

International travelers, whether traveling for business or pleasure, will find
themselves solo from time to time. Here are a few ways to meet new people and perhaps
even get new travel chances.
Make yourself friendly
Be relaxed and polite. Remember to put yourself in social situations.
Restaurants, shops and parks are all great places to meet people. If you want to
make local friends in a country, stay near the place the locals often visit.
Show your photo album
Keep a small photo album in your bag when you travel. Photos of family, friends
and pets will help your new friends to learn more about who you are and give you
things to talk about. They will share their similar experiences with you, and it
will help you to learn more about your new friends.
Offer something special
Can you help your new friends improve their Chinese? Can you cook a traditional
Chinese meal? By sharing your experiences, you can have a relationship with your
new friends that they won't soon forget.
Give some gifts
Many foreigners love Chinese goods but have to pay a lot when buying them in
their homeland, so you'd better prepare some gifts such as silks, tea and china(瓷
器).They are always popular.
Exchange flats
If you and your new friends get along well, you can give them your information
and plan to exchange flats for your next trip. Then you can visit their countries
and stay in their flats while they stay in yours. In this way you will improve
friendship and live like a local abroad, but pay less for traveling.
37. The underlined word "solo" in the passage mean “_________”.
A. free
B. alone
C. worried
D. close
38. In which way can a photo album help you?
