When our first son Brendan was born in Sydney in 1966，his godfather gave him a golden elm tree that we planted in our yard.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Four years ago, I helped start a Blessing in a Backpack program in my school district. Each week we distributed backpacks filled with a weekend’s worth of food for at-risk students in our district.
Our packing area was in one of the district’s high schools, made up of students who could not make it in a traditional classroom, or who had academic issues that would keep them from graduating. The headmaster of the academy assigned us a young man having classroom and personal issues. Andrew was a polite, handsome young man with a ready smile, but his eyes showed hurt and he seemed fearful of adults.
During the packing, he did what we asked but we could tell his heart was not in it. But after a few weeks, our young volunteer started to warm up to us and the job. After a month, Andrew was very involved and inviting other young people to help us. We could see he was excited to be given a leadership role.
We came to rely on Andrew more and more. Then he goofed up and was driven out of school for three days. The following week my co-chair and I talked to Andrew, letting him know how important he was to the organization and how he had disappointed us with his behavior. You could see the tears in his eyes during our talk.
As the months passed, we could see a change in Andrew. He became focused and positive about his future. A few months before June, he informed us excitedly that he was going to graduate. I think that might have been one of his proudest moments. The headmaster later told us that had we not stepped in and given him support, encouragement and guidance, he was sure Andrew would have been dead from violence.
As graduation approached, students talked about who they were inviting and how proud they would be to have their families there, but Andrew had no one who would come. I knew that I could not let him down, not after all his growth and improvement. I would be there for him.
As the proud graduates walked in to sit on stage, I could see a light in his eyes as he approached. When he reached me, he touched my hand, as if to say thank you. Tears welled up in both of our eyes.
I learned that my dear friend Andrew turned his life around. He is now in his second year in a university and doing very well. Not only had we fed him meals on weekends through his own Blessing in a Backpack, we had fed his soul.

TIRANA (Reuters) — Of 14 sorties (架次) flown by British World War Two (WWⅡ) pilots supplying Anti-Nazi fighters in Albania on Oct. 29, 1944, 12 returned to the base in Italy, one failed to drop its load and “the other is missing and assumed to have crashed”, according to official records.
For seven decades, the bomber was believed to be at the bottom of the Adriatic Sea. Then, last October, a British and U.S. team climbed into the Albanian mountains to find its wreckage (残骸) spotted by a villager there.
The vital clue would come in the form of a gold ring, the inside of it carved with “Joyce & John”, kept by an Albanian villager Jaho Cala and then his son.
“My father gave it to me when I got married in 1971, but told me clearly the ring did not belong to our family and I was to return it to its owner,” Jaho’s son, Xhemil Cala, told Reuters.
Twenty years later, Cala, a police officer, always wore the ring. But he had not given up returning it to its rightful owner. Finally, he contacted the embassies of the US and Britain — the two countries that helped liberate Albania from the Nazis a month after Flt Sgt Thompson’s death. Three months later, the British embassy confirmed the ring was Flt Sgt Thompson’s, and contacted his family. Then the riddle was solved.
A flight engineer, Sergeant John Thompson and Joyce Mozley got married in June 1944 but only spent a weekend together before being posted overseas. Thompson’s plane dropped supplies to the Biza valley, but on turning west to return to Italy, it crashed, killing its crew. His wife remarried after the war and passed away in 1995. At the ceremony in Albania’s Defence Ministry, Cala kneeled as he handed the ring to Thompson’s 92-year-old sister, Dorothy Websteralong with a piece of rock from the mountain that brought the plane down.
“Your brother helped to liberate my country. He will never be forgotten.” Defence Minister Mimi Kodheli told Webster.
“I remember him very well, as if it were yesterday,” Webster told Reuters, adding she was “excited … getting all these that we never thought we would ever get”.
60. Thompson’s plane crashed because it ___________.
A. failed to drop its load B. went down to the Adriatic Sea
C. was shot down by a bomber D. hit a mountain in Albania
61. This news report was most probably written in ________.
A. 2022 B. 2021 C. 2022 D. 2021
62. What’s the correct order of the following events?
① The owner of the ring was found.
② Albania was liberated.
③ Xhemil Cala got the ring.
④ The remains of the plane were found.
⑤ A ceremony was held in Albania’s Defence Ministry.
A. ②③①④⑤ B. ②③④①⑤ C.②④③①⑤ D. ③②④①⑤
63. The best tittle for the passage is____________.
A. Love Story of a Flight Engineer
B. Search of the Crashed Bomber
C. WWII Pilot’s Ring Returned after 70 Years
D. Ceremony Held to Return the Hero’s Ring
