I hid the long black bag in the garage (车库) two days ago. Tonight, in the dark, I would finally take it away. If everything went OK, it would be done by morning. But I had to be sure no one, not even my wife, saw me.
It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected. I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed. It was partly true. But the main reason for leaving was that I wanted to complete my plan.
First I had to get the kids to sleep. That was never easy at any time and tonight it was even more difficult. The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early. I told him 10:30 pm was not early. As usual, I read them a bed time story, but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret.
Silence finally came, and feeling like a thief (小偷) in the night, I went out of the house and into the garage. Taking one end, I pulled the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden. I was worried that my neighbours might see me and call the police.
It was already eleven o’clock. By the light of the moon I started working, trying to make as little noise as possible. And that was not easy with a saw (锯子) and a hammer (锤子).
After much hard work, I finally completed my work. I looked down at my watch. It was exactly 4:00 am. Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep. It wouldn’t be long now before the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree-house Father Christmas brought them this year.
( )62. Why did the man feel nervous?
   A. He left the party too late.   B. He was afraid of the darkness.
   C. He didn’t know where the black bag was. D. He worried that others would know his secret.
( )63. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refers to_______.
   A. thieves B. parents C. children D. neighbours
( )64. In what order did the man do the following?
a. Read the kids a story.   b. Had a shower.   c. Worked in the moonlight.  
d. Pulled the bag from the garage.   e. Went to a party.
   A. e-d-a-b-c   B. e-a-d-c-b    C. a-b-e-d-c   D. a-e-d-c-b
( )65. How would the children feel when they saw the man’s work?

六、任务型阅读 每空一词
The world is divided into（被分为）two important parts. One half of the world is rich and the other half is poor. In the poor part, a lot of people never get enough to eat. In the rich part, a lot of people eat too much. In one part, children are hungry and in the other, a lot of people are fatter and fatter and have to go on diets or do some exercise to lose weight. For example, a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in the poorer countries.
The poor countries have some difficult problems. Sometimes the land is too poor to grow anything on. The land can get better, but people have to do a lot of things first. More experts (专家)should go there to teach people how to enrich（使富裕） their land and how to find water.
But rich countries have problems, too. They are not always pleasant places to live in. Sometimes the air is too dirty to breathe （呼吸）and the rivers are too dirty to swim in or to take water. The roads and the streets are full of people and buses. Cars usually move very slowly. Noise is terrible. A lot of people do not have houses to live in. People must do something about these problems. We should do something to make the air and the rivers clean and build more houses. But it will take a long time.
