    While traveling abroad(在国外), Mr. Jackson Frank ran short of money. So he wrote to his brother, asking for $500. "Send the money by telegram," he wrote, "to the Fisher Bank in P…" After a week he began calling at the Fisher Bank. He showed his passport(护照). "Nothing has come for you," he was told.

    ()It is easy to underestimate English writer James Heriot.He had such a pleasant,readable style that one might think that anyone could imitate it.How many times have I heard people say“I could write a book.I just haven’t the time.”Easily said.Not so easily done.James Herriot,contrary to pupular opinion,did not find it easy in his early days of,as he put it,“having a go at the writing game”.While he obviously had an abundance of natural talent,the final,polished work that he gave to the world was the result of years of practising,re-writing and reading.Like the majority of authors,he had to suffer many disappointments and rejections along the way,but these made him all the more determined to succeed.Everything he achieved in life was earned the hard way and his success in the literary field was no exception.

    我们很容易低估英国作家吉米·哈利。他的作品秉承一种令人愉快的,易读的风格,以至于有人认为任何人都可以模仿。很多次我听到人们说:“我能写一本书,我只是没有时间。”说来容易,做来难。与大家所想的相反,早年吉米·哈利发现写作并非易事,正如他所言“尝试写作游戏”。尽管很显然他极具写作天赋,但他呈现给世界的最终出版作品也是历经多年练习,重写与阅读的结果。与大多数作家一样,一路走来,他经历了多次的失望与拒绝,但这一切使他更坚定了获得成功的决心。他生命中获得的成就源于他的艰苦努力,他在文学领域的成功绝非偶然。

    Passage Four

    One evening Mr. Green was driving home along a lonely country road. He had £ 100.00 in his pock et. At the loneliest part of the road, a man asked for a lift (搭车). Mr. Green told him to get into the car and continued his driving. When he talked to the man and learned that the man had been in prison for robbery and had broken out of prison two days before, Mr. Green was very worried.

    Suddenly he saw a police-car and had a bright idea. He just reached a small town where the speed limit (限制速度) was 30 miles an hour. But he drove the car as fast as it could go. He looked back and saw that the police-car had begun to chase (追) him. After a mile or so the police-car overtook (赶上) him and ordered him to stop. A policeman got out and came to Mr. Green's car. Mr. Green hoped that he could tell the policeman about the escaped robber, but he felt the man had put a gun against his back. The policeman took out his notebook and pencil, saying he wanted Mr. Green's name and address. Mr. Green asked to be taken to the police station, but the policeman said, "No, you will have to appear at the police station later." Mr. Green had to do as the policeman told him. The policeman wrote his name and address down, put his notebook and pencil back in his pocket and gave Mr. Green a talk about dangerous driving. Then Mr. Green started up his car again and drove on.

    Just as he reached the outskirts (郊区) of London, the passenger said, "! want to get off here." Mr. Green stopped the car, the man got out and said, "Thanks for the lift. You've been good to me. This is the least I can do in return (报答)." And he handed Mr. Green the policeman's notebook, which he stole while the policeman was talking to Mr. Green.

    46. The man asking for a lift was ______.

    A. a robber who robs drivers

    B. a policeman who had worked in prison

    C. a prisoner who had escaped from prison

    D. a stranger with £ 100.00 in his pocket
