already
famous.
Tracy: Yes. I'm really lucky to have a chance to do so many things that other young people
haven't yet.
Interviewer: So Tracy, the first question is-how old were you when you made your first movie,
peanuts?
Tracy: Well, I was only four-so I didn't have a big part-and that movie wasn't really successful.
Interviewer: So what was your first successful movie then? Tracy: Chocolate Aliens. Did you see it?

found interesting chocolates in there. Tracy: Yeah—that was a cool scene, wasn't it?

hard.

being famous. Mostly, I miss being a kid. So enjoy being a kid, and don't grow up too
quickly.

(An excerpt of After Twenty Years)
There was now a cold rain falling and the wind was stronger. The few people walking

along that street were hurrying, trying to keep warm. At the door of the shop stood the man who had come a thousand miles to meet a friend, Jimmy Wells. Twenty years ago, they agreed to meet here tonight. Such a meeting could not be certain. But he waited.
About twenty minutes he waited, and then a tall man in a long coat came hurrying across the street. He went directly to the waiting man.
“Is that you, Bob?” he asked, doubtfully. “Is that you, Jimmy Wells?” cried Bob.
The new man took Bob’s hands in his. “It’s Bob! It surely is. I was certain I would find you here if you were still alive. Twenty years is a long time. The old restaurant is gone, Bob. I wish it were here, so that we could have another dinner in it. Has the West been good to you?”
“It gave me everything I asked for. You’ve changed, Jimmy. I never thought you were so tall.”
“Oh, I grew a little after I was twenty.” “Are you doing well in New York, Jimmy?”
“Well enough. I work for the city. Come on, Bob. We’ll go to a place I know, and have a good long talk about old times.”
The two men started along the street, arm in arm. Bob, the man from the West, was beginning to tell the story of his life. The other, with his coat up to his ears, listened with interest.
At the corner stood a shop bright with electric lights. When they came near, each turned to look at the other’s face.
The man from the West stopped suddenly and pulled his arm away. “You’re not Jimmy Wells,” he said. “Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change the shape of a man’s nose.”
“It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one,” said the tall man. “You’ve been under arrest for ten minutes, Bob. Chicago policemen thought you might be coming to New York. They told us to watch for you. Are you coming with me quietly? That’s wise. But first here is something I was asked to give you. You may read it here at the window. It’s from a policeman named Wells.”
31. Where did the story happen?
A. In a restaurant. B. In Chicago. C. In the West. D. In New York.
32. In which order did the following events take place? a. Bob found out his new man wasn’t his friend. b. The tall man gave Bob a note from Wells. c. Bob waited at the door of a shop.
d. They had a talk about Bob’s life in the West. e. The new man came to meet him.
A. c-e-d-a-b. B. e-b-c-a-d. C. c-d-a-e-b. D. e-c-a-b-d.
33. What can we infer (推断) from the story?
A. Time may change a good man into a bad one. B. The police would make some notes on Bob.
C. Bob came from the far West to meet his friend. D. They promised to meet each other 20 years ago.
