As a driver, he was busy but he was paid much. His wife was an able woman and did all the housework. When he came back, she took good care of him and he never did anything at home. So he had enough time when he had a holiday. A few friends of his liked gambling(赌博) and he learned it soon. So he was interested in it and hardly forgot anything except gambling. He lost all his money and later he began to sell the television, watches and so on. His wife told him not to do it but he didnt listen to her. She had to tell the police. He and his friends were punished for it. And he was hardly sent away. After he came out of lockup(拘留所), he hated her very much and the woman had to leave him.It was New Years Day. Mr. Lang didnt go to work. He felt lonely and wanted to gamble again. He called his friends and they came soon. But they were afraid the police would come. He told his fiveyearold son to go to find out if there were the policemen outside. They waited for a long time and didnt think the police would come and began to gamble. Suddenly opened the door and in came a few policemen.“I saw there werent any policemen outside, daddy，” said the boy, “so I went to the crossing and asked some to come.”21Mr. Lang was paid much because_.Ahe was a driverBhe worked in a factoryChe had a lot of work to doDhe had worked there for a long time22Mrs. Lang did all housework because_.Ashe couldnt find any work Bshe thought her husband was tiredCher husband spent all time in gamblingDshe wouldnt stop her husband gambling23_， so he was put into lockup.

BSurprise. CSatisfaction. DFear.28What David New said implies that _.Ateachers should focus more on their work than on uniformBtrousers by Miss Sexy were banned because theyre too shortCmost teenage girls would like to be treated as young womenDchildren will always find a new way to change their uniformCThe Most Scenic Drives in AmericaPrice: $25.00Description: This book includes 120 easytofollow maps, 400 breathtaking photos, fascinating facts, tips, suggested side trips and much more.What Works What Doesnt: The Bottom Line on Everything Health Price：$31.96Description: Now, with What Works What Doesnt, you can stop wasting time and money on products, treatments and approaches that dont work, and start getting real results from strategies that do.Strange Stories, Amazing Facts of Americas Past Price: $34.96Description: If you ever thought history was dull and our forefathers stodgy, here is a book to change your mind.This is America at its most fascinatingmore than 600 true stories as gripping as a whodunit, as fast paced as a spy chase, as atmospheric as a historical novelguaranteed to give many hours of reading pleasure.How To Write Your Life StoryPrice: $26.95Description: Discover how easy it is to write your own life story!
