第61题,When I was a little girl, my brothers and I collected stamps for many years. My mother didn't use to work during the week, but she worked in the post office near our house on Saturdays, and she used to bring home all the new stamps as soon as they were issued. On the day of the World Cup football final in London in 1966, we were very excited because England were playing West Germany in the final. When we were having lunch, my mother told us to go to the post office straightaway after the match if England won, but she didn't tell us why. At 2 o'clock my mother went back to work as usual, while the rest of the family were watching the football on TV at home. Although she wasn't watching the match, she was listening to it on the radio. England won 4:2 and so my brothers and I ran to the post office. As we burst in, my mother was standing behind the counter. She was waiting to sell us a very special limited edition with ENGLAND WINNERS on each stamp. We were over the moon. We still have it today, and perhaps it is worth a lot of money. 正确答案:
第62题,There are four beautiful things about Hawaii. First, the beaches. There are hundreds of miles of beaches on the twenty islands of Hawaii. Most of them are covered with fine white sand. They are thought to be among the best beaches in the world. Another wonderful thing about the beaches of Hawaii is the water temperature. The year-round average temperature of the water at the famous resort (胜地) of Waikiki Beach is 23℃! In fact, there are no real seasons in Hawaii. There is a difference of only two or three degrees between the hottest day of summer and the coldest day of winter. That’s why the Hawaiians don’t have a word for weather in their language. Second, the volcanoes (火山). These volcanoes are not just a part of the islands, but they actually make the islands. Because of them the islands are still growing. The most famous volcano on Hawaii is Mauna Loa. It is the world’s most active volcano. It has been erupting (爆发) for thousands of years. Even when it isn’t erupting, smoke comes out of the earth from thousands of little holes. These volcanoes could be dangerous to the population of Hawaii. In fact, Hilo, the second largest city in Hawaii, is built just under Mauna Loa. The volcano could erupt at any time, but the people of Hilo do not seem worried. Third, all the wonderful fruits and flowers of the islands. Every day of the year there are flowers blooming. Every month a dozen different kinds of trees are covered with fruits. Fourth, the people who live there.
From its earliest days, Hawaii has had a peaceful history. The Polynesians (玻利尼西亚人) who came to the islands about a thousand years ago believed that a stranger should be welcomed. They offered strangers food and comfort, and thought of them as brothers. 正确答案:
