There was a boy in India who was sent by his parents to a boarding school. Before being sent away this boy was the brightest student in his class. He was at the top in every competition. He was a champion.
But the boy changed after leaving home and attending the boarding school. His grades started dropping. He hated being in a group. He was lonely all the time. And there were especially dark times when he felt like killing himself. All of this was because he felt worthless and that no one loved him.
His parents started worrying about the boy. But even they did not know what was wrong with him. So his dad decided to travel to the boarding school and talk with him.
They sat on the bank of the lake near the school. The father started asking him casual questions about his classes, teachers and sports. After some time his dad said, “Do you know son, why I am here today?”
The boy answered back, “to check my grades?”
“No, no” his dad replied, “I am here to tell you that you are the most important person for me. I want to see you happy. I don’t care about grades. I care about you. I care about your happiness. YOU ARE MY LIFE.”

Work is very important to Americans, and most take pride in their work. Americans are expected to be dedicated workers, prepared to work long, hard hours. Americans tend to evaluate each other by the jobs they do, so it is common to hear people ask each other what they “do” for a living when they are first introduced.
Today, perhaps more than ever, Americans love to work and expect great rewards both material and emotional from their occupations (职业). Most Americans, therefore, want their jobs to be interesting, rewarding, and, if possible, challenging and even entertaining.
Americans work long hours The average American works about forty hours a week, but many professionals work much longer hours; many work more than sixty hours per week. Some people feel many Americans are now too work-conscious and neglecting their homes, spouses, and children. Competitive organizations place much pressure on their employees, as they are demanding, and rarely give them more than two or three weeks of paid vacation. Most Americans are considered “stressed” at work—— and often at home—— as they try to balance the many placed on them.
While many workers do enjoy their work, some do not. And while many professions and jobs are fun and rewarding, many are not. To compensate (补偿)for boring, unsatisfying jobs many Americans devote time to hobbies, to forming friendships, and to social, religious, sports and political activities.
55. According to the passage, when first introduced, Americans often ask about each other’s ___
.
A. ages B. jobs C. habits D. families
56. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Americans only care for salary.
B. Americans want jobs not only easily done but also well paid.
C. Jobs that are interesting and well paid are popular in America.
D. Americans want to do work instead of enjoying sports.
57. From the passage, we know that in America if you don’t enjoy your work much, .
A. you can take part in some other activities
B. you’d better stop working 
C. you’d better stay at home
D. you can’t ask your boss for two or three weeks of paid vacation
58. The best title of the passage is .
A. Entertainment and Work B. Activities and Work
C. Family and Work D. Americans and Work

Phoenix, Arizona, the USA was shaken by a big sandstorm recently. It was a huge dust storm that struck Phoenix a little after 7:00 pm local time.
Arizona has sandstorms particularly during the monsoon(季风) season which usually starts from mid-June until the end of September. However, this was so far the biggest. The cloud of dust turned day into night. Some trees were downed, gardens were destroyed and it knocked out power for thousands of local people along the area, but luckily no deaths happened. A number of the people’s pools became dirty with dust. People who lived in Phoenix for more than 40 years said that this was the first time they had experienced this huge dust storm. It could greatly influence people’s health.
The big dust cloud started in Tucson traveling north across the desert. The huge storm ran up to 60 miles per hour. It was more than 100 miles wide and a mile high. Besides Phoenix and near cities, the storm also reached Yu
