I made up my mind to drive to South Carolina to meet my friends in my used car. Though I had only been there once 21 and did not know the 22 very well. I was on the 23 after I had made some inquiries (询问).

At Ashvelle, there was a crossroad where I could go on along the main road or I could take a short cut. The short cut was to 24 several hills and was dangerous, I hesitated (犹豫)for a little while and then chose the main road, for I wanted to be 25 .

Thinking it 30 , I decided to go on. “If 31 people can go along this road, why can’t I?” I 32 myself.

The short cut, to my surprise, was not that 33 . In fact, it was only a very peaceful country road, 34 up and down two low 35 .There was 36 traffic. On both sides of the road, you could see trees, wild flowers, and 37 with cows and horses. My fear was 38 with the wind. Listening to the beautiful country music over my car stereo (立体声), I drove on and 39 the scenery which was so quiet and so natural. Even my used car forgot to give me 40 . It was just in this light heartedness that I arrived at my destination. My friends, after they heard what had happened to me, all said it sounded like an adventure.

The Guidance Department (教导处) at Burrville High School has a staff (职员) of eleven. Most of their work is done with the students. But the staff sees a lot of parents, too.

“Parent meetings form a clear monthly pattern,” says Mildred Foreman, Guidance Director. “This pattern stays much the same from year to year. The busy months are October, March and May.”

September starts rather slowly. Few parents come in. Most of them want to discuss the schedules. October brings many behaviour problems. Some parents are called in. Others come by themselves. Things quiet down in November. December is a quiet month. “It’s the holiday,” Ms. Foreman says. “People want to come in, I know, but they decide to wait until after New Year’s Day.”

Report cards go home just before Christmas holidays. Bad marks bring parents in as school reopens. This happens again in March, another report card month. May is always the year’s busiest month. That’s when parents realize that their children might be held back (留级). They come in to see if anything can be done before things are decided in June.

41. “Most of their work is done with the students” means ______.

A. most of their work is dealing with the studentsB. most of their work is getting rid of their students

C. they have most of their work done by the students

The year was 1932. Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single-engined aeroplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter(高度表) failed and she didn’t know how high she was flying. At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged into the sea.

Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames coming from the engine. Would she be able to reach land? There was nothing to do except to keep going and to hope.

In the end, Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland, and for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe. When she returned to the United States, she was honored by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous.

What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty-six minutes.

In the years that followed, Amelia Earhart made several flights across the United States, and on each occasion she set a new record for flying time. Amelia Earhart made these flights to show that women had a place in aviation (航空) and that air travel was useful.
