This summer vacation,Xiaokai,a high school student in Guangzhou,planned to spend his time surfing the Internet,playing basketball and watching TV.
But Xiaokai"s parents tried to make him read some classics at home.In their yees,reading the classics would do his son much more good than other activities.
Though his room was full of the classic books,he had just finished reading one of them,The Old Man and the Sea.
"I picked up the book just because it was not very thick,"he said."Nothing impressed me at all after reading."
Xiaokai is not alone in today"s China.Now most of the teenagers are fond of reading martial arts stories,cartoons and popular magazines.Theose classics cannot get them interested at all.
Parents areworrying about this phenomenon(现象).They always tell their chilren to read the classsics,which is supposed to help their children improve their academic studies.
Ms Li made a classics reading plan for her daughter,but her daughter refused to carry it away.She just finished less than 10 pages of the Dream of Red Chamber(阁楼) during the whole summer vacation. Ms Li sighed,"What"s wrong with the children today?"
It is the same with teachers.One middle school Chinese teacher once prepared a chart(图表) of Interpersonal relationship in the best-known novel Dream of Red Chamber for his students. They were asked to remember how the characters are related to each other while preparing for the final exam.
To improve the situation in which the fastfood culture (快餐文化) seems to be winning over teenagers,parents are expected to understand their children"s interests, and guide them to read the books instead of forcing them,according to some experts.It is not necessary for the kids to read the classics in their childhood.They can read classics after having their own life experience.
64.Xiaokai read only one classic book because _______.
A.he didn"t have more
B.he wasn"t interested in the classics
C.it took him a lot of time
D.he just acted on his parents" advice

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
Last year.I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, DC.I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended.Immediately, I pulled out all of my change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her.But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money.I just need help finding the post office.”
In an instant, I realized what I had done.I acted with prejudice―I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be.I hated what I saw in myself.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant.I left Honduras and arrived in the US at the age of 15.I started my new life with two suitcases,my brother and sister.Through the years, I have been a doorkeeper, cashier and pizza delivery driver among many other humble(卑微的)jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer.
In my own life, I have experienced prejudice.I remember a time―at the age of 17―when I was a busboy, I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me.
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am, where I have been ,and to lose sight of where I want to be going.That blind woman on the streets cured me of my blindness.She reminded me of my belief in humility(谦虚).By the way, I helped that lady to the post office.I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson.
56.How did the writer give the blind woman money?
A.In a modest way B.In a polite way
C.In an impatient way. D.In a painful way

A.still lives a poor life B.was busy with his work
C.was born in Honduras D.was a native of Washington D.C.

A.be nice to the elderly and the disabled
B.try to experience different kinds of culture
C.treat others equally with love and respect
D.think about one’s past as often as possible
59.What would be the best title of the text?
A.A priceless lesson B.An act of prejudice
C.A sightseeing trip D.A humble moment
