AOne day, I happened to talk to a stranger on the bus. When he found out that I was from Chicago, he told me that one of his good friends lived there and he wondered if I happened to know him. At first I wanted to say that Chicago was a very big city. He was silent (沉默) for a few minutes, and then he began to tell me all about his friend.He told me that his friend was an excellent tennis player, and that he even had his own tennis court . He added that he knew a lot of people with swimming pools, but that he only knew two people in the country had their own tennis courts. And his friend in Chicago was one of them. I told him that I knew several people like that. For example, my brother and my next-door neighbour. I told him that my brother was a doctor. The doctor had a tennis court. I said that my next-door neighbour went to Sacramento last summer and lived in the house next to my brother's. For a moment, we looked at each other. But we did not say anything.“Would your friend's name happen to be Roland Kirkwood? ”I asked finally.

What does “ahead of” mean in English?A. earlier thanB. later thanC. afterD. untilCIn today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect(影响) on the poor, but once a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.If money was everything, all millionaires(百万富翁) would have true love, true friendship, good health and a long life. However, this is not always true.Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words which are “I love you”. But can love be bought? I’m afraid not. Love means to give, not to take. To every person, health and long life are probably the most precious(宝贵的) things. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is “No”.Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship can’t be bought either. In a word, where money is worshiped(崇拜), money can cause brothers to quarrel, lovers to hate, strangers to fight and so on. No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make you a happy person if you have not one to laugh with, no one to cry for.( )56. According to the passage, which of the following do you think is right?A. Money is everything.B. Money isn’t necessary.C. Money is important, but not the most important.D. With no money, with no success.( )57. What’s the most important thing for every person according to the writer’s ideas?A. Only money.B. Health and a long lifeC. Only friendship.D. A, B and C( ) 58. Which sentence of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. If you haven’t much money, you can’t get more happiness.B. You may live a long life even if you are poor.C. Every year many people die in the world because their family is poor.D. If you are rich, you will have less friendship.( )59. In fact, all millionaires ____________.A. have much moneyB. die earlierC. love their moneyD. have true love( )60. What does the sentence “Love means to give, not to take.” mean in the passage?A. 爱意味着给你,而不能带走。
