The whole class 48 down. My mouth opened and this came out: “I don’t think we should make fun of the short bus, because there are people on that bus who have a lot in common with us and have the same feelings as we do.” I could feel my 49 getting louder. “ So I would 50 it if you didn’t make fun of them.”
The room was very quiet and everyone stared at me. My teacher 51 for his words and then started the song again. At the end of the class,
everyone was giving me strange looks.

A
One day, a college student was taking a walk with a professor. As they went along, they saw lying in the path a pair of old shoes. They supposed the shoes belonged to a poor man who was employed in a field close by, and who had nearly finished his day’s work. The student turned to the professor, saying, “ Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his shoes, and hide
ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his confusion when he cannot find them”.
“My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never amuse ourselves at the
expense of the poor. But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by tricking on the poor man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the discovery affects him.”
The student did so, and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes. After he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, he felt something hard. He bent down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder were seen on his face. He fixed his eyes on the coin, turned it round, and looked at it again and again. He then
looked around him on all sides, but no person was to be seen. He now put the money into his
pocket, and continued to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin. His feelings overcame him. He fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and cried a sincere thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread, Whom the timely help, from some unknown hand, would save from dying．
The student stood there, deeply affected, and his eyes filled with
tears．“Now,” said the
professor, “are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick？”
The youth replied, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget． 56．The student wanted to play the poor man a trick to _________________． A．find the truth B．show his wisdom C．amuse himself D．teach him a lesson

Tips for Cycle Trips
Cycling has many advantages as a form of travel, as it is the fastest way to travel by human Power, and slow enough to allow the type of local
involvement that is impossible with powered travel．Cycle travel is a cheap form of transportation． Distance
On level terrain（地形）,without a headwind, a cyclist of average fitness on a touring bike can comfortably cover 60-120km a day．Distances of up to 250km a day are possible, but anything much beyond 120km will require considerable physical tension and not allow many stops to enjoy the places you visit．For many,80-100km a day will be the most suitable distance to aim for, as it will give a sense of achievement and also leave plenty of time for meals and activities． Geography
The gradient（坡度）of the trip will reduce your range．A basic rule is that for every 100
metres of altitude you climb, you should add an extra 15 minutes to your journey time．In hilly or mountainous areas, the easiest routes for cycling are downstream along major rivers, as overall they will be downhill．A long, roundabout route along a river will usually be easier than a short, direct route
