32、on my knees and pleaded(懇求) for help. “Please God, I cant do anything more for my son. Im at the end of my rope. Im giving the whole thing up to you.”I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karls absences.” Before he could say a

33、nother word, I choked up and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just dont know what to do. Ive tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. Its out of my hands.” For a moment there was silence

34、 on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time”, and hung up.Karls next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades.

41、aces like mine so much so that they make mine theirs.It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me.

42、e sometimes it makes the place feel comfortable and warm but this is my home, not a party house. I was old enough to move out on my own, so why cant I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy(隱私)?JoanEdwards reply to JoanDear Joan:If your family didnt pay attention to your needs when you were a

43、child, you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now.And if youve gathered your friends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere, you may fear that saying no will bring back the kind of conflict you grew up with or destroy the nice atmosphere you now enjoy. You need to understa

44、nd that in true friendship its okay to put your own needs first from time to time.Be clear about the message you want to send.

48、D. encourages Joan to be brave enoughDWhen a rather dirty, poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg for a few coins, do you hurry on, not knowing what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly hand over some money? What should our attitude to beggars be? There can be no

49、question that the world is full of terribly sad stories. It must be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from. It seems cruel not to give some money to beggars.Certainly , most of the worlds great religions (宗教) order us to be open-hearted and share what we have with those l

50、ess fortunate than ourselves .But has the world changed ?Maybe what was morally（道德方面）right in the old days ,when one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help ,is no longer the best idea. Quite a few people will not give to beggars .Let us look at their arguments.First

51、,some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable and actually make a good living from begging .Giving to beggars only encourages this sort of evil(惡行).Secondly, there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer, wine or drugs .Thirdly, there is the opinion tha

52、t there is no real excuse for begging. One might be poor, but that is no reason for losing ones sense of pride and self-dependence.Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be dealt with by the government rather than ordinary people .Some people think beggars should go to the local gove

53、rnment department and receive help.It is hard to come to any final conclusion ;there are various cases and we must deal with them differently .A few coins can save a life in some situations ,and even if the money is wasted ,that does not take away the moral goodness of the giver.68What is mainly dis

54、cussed in the passage?AMoral deeds of people.BReligious activities of the church.CMoral goodness of the giver.DArguments on giving to beggars.69What can we infer from the sentence “But has the world changed ?”in the second paragraph?APeople no longer know who suffers misfortune in the village.BSome

55、people will not do what was morally right in the past .CWe dont meet with those who need help any more.DNow it is the governments duty to help the beggars.70Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?ASome people dress up to pretend to be beggars.BSome beggars want money to help their children go to school.CSome beggars use the money to buy drugs.DSome beggars have no excuse for begging.71In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that it is hard to come to any f
