Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and the barn provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls. My parents would never agree with me. The walls were old. Some stones were missing and others were loose and crumbling. Still, my wishing for climbing those walls grew so strong that, one spring afternoon, I finally gathered all my courage and entered the living room. “I, uh…. I want to climb the stone walls,” I said hesitantly. Everyone looked up. “Can I climb the stone walls?” Suddenly, a chorus (齐声) went up from the women in the room. “Heavens, no!” They shouted. “You’ll hurt yourself!” I wasn’t too disappointed because the response was just as I had expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute,” I heard he said, “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.” “Be careful. Come and see me when you get back.” For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met my grandfather and told him about my climbing. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred.” he said. “You made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you and I like you exactly as you are.” 61. It’s clear that the city kid often __________. A. visited his grandfather’s farm                B. climbed the old stone walls C. had little fun on the farm                    D. helped to repair the stone walls 62. The little kid gathered his courage to __________. A. talk to his grandfather                    B. enter the living room C. ask for climbing    the old walls                D. stay out alone for some time 63.

Which is the best title of the passage? A. Being yourself.                            B. The old Stone Walls. C. My Grandfather.                            D. Nice Sunday Afternoons. C I have lived in Lawndale for thirty years. I have seen many things change. Some have been the better and some for the worse. My neighborhood is a good one. I have friends here and my family lives here. My mother’s home is two blocks away. My cousins live down the street. Progress starts with hope. That’s something I learned a long time ago. You can look at things and complain. Or you can ask, “What can we do to make things better?” My son came home from school in August with a plan. It was a plan his class made. They were going to turn a vacant lot (闲置地皮) into a garden. I said it would be a lot more work than he knew. He had a dream. He wanted to have a lot of flowers in Lawndale. He said, “If we turn the vacant lot across fromm the school into a garden, it will show everyone how much we care. And then more people will plant flowers and trees, so the community will get to be a really beautiful place.”
