阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A Divine Plan
At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves learning-disabled children, the father of one student delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by those who attended. He began with a question. “Everything God does is done with perfection. Yet, my son, Shay, cannot learn and understand things as other children do. Where is God's plan reflected in my son？”
The audience was stilled by the question. The father continued，“I believe that when God brings a
child like Shay into the world, an opportunity to realize the Divine Plan presents itself. And it comes in the way people treat that child.”
Then he told the following story：
Shay and I walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball. Shay asked，“Do you think they will let me play？”
I knew that most boys would not want him on their team. Shay didn't even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball. So I approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play. The boy looked around for guidance from his teammates. Getting none, he took matters into his own hands and said, “We are losing by six runs(得分). The game is in the eighth inning(回合). He can be on our team and we will try to put him up to bat in the ninth inning.”
In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay's team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. At the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the outfield.
In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay's team scored again. They had the potential to win. Would the team actually let Shay bat at this juncture and give away their chance to win the game?
Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. At last, understanding what the boy's intentions had been, the boys from both teams helped Shay win the game for the team and Shay was cheered as the hero.
“That day，” said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face，“the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of the Divine Plan into this world.”
56Why did the father think most of the boys wouldn't let_____ join them?
A. Because it was a very important game and they couldn'tafford to lose it.
B. Because they knew Shay was physically disabled.
C. Because they didn't get on well with Shay.
D. Because they knew Shay was anything but good at playing baseball.
57The sentence “Although no hits came his way, he was obviously very happy just to be on the field.” should be put t the end of ________.
A. Paragraph 5
B. Paragraph 6
C. Paragraph 8
D. Paragraph 9
58What can we infer from the passage?
A. Shay's team would have lost the game without him.
B. The opponent team let Shay score purposely.
C. It was quite by accident that Shay scored.
D. Shay's team let him play because they didn't take the game seriously.
59The underlined word “juncture” can be explained by ________.
A. a critical point
B. a particular place
C. a dilemma
D. an important game
B
If your parents take out a loan, remind themselves to make the payments on time. Otherwise it will become a negative record in their personal credit reports, which are playing an increasingly big role in people's daily lives. A story carried by Chongqing Morning Post in June, underlines this trend.
According to the report, a Chongqing student borrowed money from the bank to finance his university studies. After he graduated in 2005, he went to work in Shenzhen. Later, he wanted to buy a house using loans. But several banks turned down his loan applications. The reason was that he had not paid back
1,500 yuan he borrowed from a bank when he was at university.
A personal credit rating is becoming an essential “pass” in everyday life, as China establishes a nationwide credit database. Personal credit systems go back 150 years. In developed countries, enterprises and banks use them to decide whether or not to loan money or do other business with a
person.
A credit report estimates the credit worthiness of an individual, a company, or even a country. It
is an evaluation made by credit bureaus of a borrower's overall credit history and his or her ability to repay debt. A poor credit rating means a high risk of defaulting on a loan, and thus leads to the
refusal of a loan by the lender.
Today in China, credit history in banks is the major content of a credit report. But in the future, reports will include information about the payment of telephone bills, water use fees, electricity and natural gas bills, and taxes, according to officials of the People's Bank of China, the central bank.
Personal information such as appearance, genetic data, fingerprints, blood type, disease history, ethnic identity, family and religious beliefs are not to be included in credit reports, according to a draft regulation on credit rating issued last year by the Sate Council. The authors of the draft have just finished soliciting(征求) public opinions.
The Credit Reference Center run by the People's Bank of China is in charge of developing a nationwide credit database. Credit reports for all people with bank transactions (交易)began in 2006.
A personal credit rating is important to the social and economic activities of a person. According to the draft, if you have a personal negative credit record, it will be kept for five years.
60. The author took the story as an example in order to ________.
A. tell us the story of a Chongqing student
B. warn us of the importance of our personal credit report
C. encourage us to use credits widely
D. inform us to apply for a loan at university
61. Credit reports will include the following except ________.
A. taxes
B. telephone bills
C. genetic data
D. water use fees
62. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Personal credit systems go back 150 years in China.
B. Credit reports began in 2006 in China.
C. Credit history in banks is the only content of a credit report.
D. You can turn to the People's Bank of China for the information about your credit report.
63. What's the best title for the passage?
A. Credit Really Counts
B. Credit in China
C. A Credit Report Rating
D. Credit Report Contents
C
Hello， children and parents. Thank you all for coming to this meeting. I'd like to start by confirming that we will receive some money from the government for our school trip to Indonesia.
We will receive approximately $1，300 per child， which will reduce the overall cost to you.
Now that we are sure to get the money， it is time to do some serious planning. We are sure that the trip will be very exciting for the children， especially if they have not traveled overseas before. There are many benefits to having some exposure to different places and cultures. Your children will be able to learn a lot about other people and cultures on this trip.
Leanne is with us tonight. Leanne， where are you? Put up your hand， Leanne， so that the people can see who you are. Thank you. Leanne went on the trip last year and will be happy to tell you .of her experiences and answer any questions you might have. We will hear from her a bit later in the meeting. We only have five months to organize the trip. From past experience I can tell you that the time
