r. Peter Johnson, aged twenty-three, battled for half an hour to escape fro his trapped car yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water. r. Johnson took the only escape route—through the boot(行李箱).
r. Johnson’s car had finished up in a ditch(溝渠) at Roney arsin, Kent after skidding on ice and hitting a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to coe in only slowly,” r. Johnson said. “I couldn’t force the doors because they were jaed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I kneater would coe flooding in.”
r. Johnson, a sweet salesan of Sitting Hoe, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other otorists by sounding the horn and haering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape. Later he said, “It was really a half penny that saved y life. It was the only coin I had in y pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot.
It took ten inutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five inutes to clear the sweet saples fro the boot. Then r. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen inutes passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I oved the boot lid, the water and ud poured in. I forced the lid down into the ud and juped out of the ditch.”
His hands and ars cut and bruised(擦傷), r. Johnson got to Beckett Far nearby, where he was looked after by the farer’s wife, rs. Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, “That thirty inutes seeed like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into two feet of ud at the botto of the ditch.

You are watching a fil in which two en are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the en crashes through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground belo He is dead！Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the en who fall out of high windows or jup fro fast oving trains are professionals. They do this for a living. These en are called stunten. That is to say, they perfor tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do ost of the things you see on the screen. For exaple, they fall fro a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to epty cardboard boxes covered with a attress (床墊). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are ade of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is ade of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntan' s success depends on careful tiing. For exaple, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jup out of the way of the explosion just at the right oent.
Naturally stunten are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and soeties killed. A Norwegian stuntan, for exaple, skied over the edge of a cliff (懸崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落傘) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for en only. en no longer dress up as woen when actresses have to perfor soe dangerous action. For nowadays there are stuntgirls tool.

D. his safety is generally all right
49. Which of the following is the ain factor (因素) of a successful perforance?

50. What can be inferred fro the author' s exaple of the Norwegian stuntan?

To err(犯錯誤) is huan. To blae the other guy is even ore huan.
Coon sense is not all that coon.
Why tell the truth when you can coe up with a good excuse?
These three popular isquotes(戲謔的引語)are eant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about huan nature .To err, or to ake istakes, is indeed a part of being huan, but it sees that ost people don’t want to accept the responsibility for the proble. Perhaps it is the natural thing to do. The original quote about huan nature went like this: “ To err is huan, to forgive, divine(神圣的).” This saying irrors an deal people should be forgiving of others’ istakes. Instead, we tend to do the opposite --- find soeone else to pass the blae on to. However, taking responsibility for soething that went wrong is a aking of great aturity(成熟).
Coon sense is what we call clear thought. Having coon sense eans having a good general plan that will ake things work well, and it also eans staying with the plan. Coonsense tells you that you take an ubrella out into a rainstor, but you leave the ubrella hoe when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine．Coon sense does not see to be coon for large organizations, because there are so any things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. People say that in a large copany, “The right hand does not knohat the left hand is doing.”
And what is wrong with a society that thinks that aking up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the coon probles with aking excuses is that people, especially young people, get the idea that it’s okay not to be totally honest all the tie. There is a corollary(直接推論)to that: if good excuse is “good” even if it isn’t honest, then where is the place of the truth?
51. According to the passage, which of the following sees the ost huan?
A. to search for truth B. to achieve one’s ideal
C. to ake fun of others’ istakes D. to criticize others for one’s own error
52. According to the author, what is a sign of a an’s aturity?
A. doing things his own way B. bearing responsibility for his istakes
C. aking as few istakes as possible D. thinking seriously about his wrongdoing.
53. Which of the following is NOT based on coon sense?
A. A an tries to take charge of everything in a large copany.
B. A student goes out with an ubrella in story weather.
C. A copany’s next ove follows a good plan
D. A lawyer acts on fine judgents
54. What is the author’s opinion about a good excuse?
A. aking a good excuse is soeties a better policy.
B. Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas.
C. A good excuse is as rewarding as honesty.
D. Bitter truth is better than a good excuse.
55.What would be the best title for his passage?
A. A irror of Huan Nature B. To Blae or to Forgive
C. A ark of aturity D. Truth or Excuse
