A
That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines(台词). I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had bee too much for me.
As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “ Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.
It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.

The physical education office of Peking University announced on Aug. 27 that the university would build a golf course near Weiming Lake. Golf would thus bee an elective course for Peking University's students in the near future.
Peking University's eastern sports ground will be rebuilt into two soccer fields and one golf course. The latter will be designed as 90 meters long and 40 meters wide, occupying only a quarter of the whole sports ground.
The director of the physical education office revealed that a student would make only one stroke on the ground, and one class session would hold no more than 30 students.

Let us begin by saying what causes our dreams．Our dreams do not e from another world．They are not messages from some outside source（来源）．They are not a look into the future either．
All our dreams have something to do with our feelings，fears，longings，wishes，needs and memories．If a person is hungry，or tired，or cold，his dreams may include a feeling of this kind．If the covers on your body，such as a quilt or a blanket，have slipped off your bed，you may dream that you are sleeping on ice or in snow．The material for the dream you will have tonight is likely to e from the experience you have today．
So the subject of your dream usually es from something that has effect on you while you are sleeping（feeling of cold，a noise，a disfort，etc．）and it may also use your past experiences and the wishes and the interests you have now．This is why children are likely to dream of fairies(神仙)，older children of school examinations，hungry people of food，home-sick soldiers of their families and prisoners of freedom．
There are some scientists who have made a special study of why we dream，what we dream and what those dream mean．Their explanation of dreams，though a bit reasonable，is not accepted by everyone but it offers an interesting approach to the problem．They believe that dreams are mostly expressions of wishes that did not e true．In other words，dreaming is a way of having your wishes carried out．
62. Older children often dream of examinations probably because ______．
    A. they are interested in exams
    B. they are often worried about their studies

    B. In most people's dreams they often plan something of great importance．
    C. Children often dream of ghosts because they are full of imagination．
    D. Some of the past experiences may appear in people's dreams．
