He must have been completely lost in something he was reading because I had to tap on the car window to get his attention.“Is your car available？” I asked when he finally looked up at me.He nodded, then said apologetically as I settled into the back seat, “I'm sorry, but I was reading a letter.” He sounded as if he had a cold.“I am not in a hurry，” I told him.“Go ahead and finish your letter.” He shook his head.“I've read it several times already.I guess I almost know it by heart.” “Letters from home always mean a lot，” I said.
“This isn't family，” he replied.“Although it might just as well have been family, Old Ed was my oldest friend.In fact, we used to call each other ‘Old Friend’— when we'd meet.I'm not much good at writing.”
“I don't think any of us keep up our correspondence (通信) very well，” I said.“I know I don't, but I take it he's someone you've known quite a while？”
“All my life.We were kids together, went to school together and all the way through high school.” “There are not too many people who've had such a long friendship，” I said.“Actually，” the driver went on, “I hadn't seen him more than once or twice a year over the past 25 or 30 years because I moved away from the old neighborhood and you kind of lose touch even though you never forget.”
“You said ‘was’．Does that mean？” he nodded.“A couple of weeks ago.” “I'm sorry.”
He didn't say anything more, and we rode on in silence for a few minutes.But I realized that Old Ed was still on his mind when he spoke again, almost more to himself than to me.“I should have kept in contact with him.” “Well，” I agreed, “we should all keep in touch with old friends more than we do.But things come up and we just don't seem to find the time.”

Travelling around the world with children is difficult enough, while attempting it without using motorized transport is even more of challenge.Even so, Dario Schworer, a 42yearold climatologist and mountain guide, and his 33yearold wife Sabine are on a journey to do just that.
The Swiss couple want to travel across the world's oceans and climb the highest mountain on every continent to promote Earthfriendly ways of life.
“We are collecting good examples of dealing with climate change and living in harmony with nature and we want to spread such ideas.” Schworer said.“We want to help people affected by global warming and to inspire children for the future.”
Recently after having spent three months teaching children in the Everest region, the couple want to show it is possible to travel through the world's climate zones using just humanpower and forces of nature.
In the 47 countries they have visited, they have collected 22 tons of trash, taught people in Ecuador how the sun's rays can be used to clean water and inspired a person in Chile to build a house on water with recycled plastic bottles as a foundation.They have also collected trash in the mountains of Nepal with school children.
So far they have communicated with 45，000 children from South America, Australia and Asia, giving presentations about the importance of recycling and using alternative energy like solar and wind power.
When they began their adventure in 2003 they had no children of their own.But since then two has become five: daughter Sabine is now five years old, Andri was born in Chile and baby Neo was born in Australia.
Initially the couple thought they would complete their travels in four years, but now, they believe it could take seven more.
“Since our belief is the need to respect nature, we travel only when conditions are good，” Schworer said.

Brian Snow, who is a Canadian, had a special Christmas. He gave up hours of holiday fun with his family to help 75 trapped strangers.
High winds changed an airline on Dec. 25, a flight intended for St. John's, Newfoundland. And the passengers finally arrived in as far as Deer Lake on the other side of the island province.
Local resident Brian Snow was friends with one of the passengers. And he realized that due to the national holiday, all the restaurants and shops in town were closed. On top of that, the hotel where almost 80 people had been dropped off had no restaurant. Mr Snow posted a call to action on social media：“Let's show the true Christmas spirit.”
Within an hour, the Facebook post was shared 60 times and the community had voluntarily organized a delightful meal in the hotel lobby. Residents brought sandwiches, their own turkey dinner leftovers, freshly baked bread, and, of course, lots of cookies and desserts.
However, the kindness from the Deer Lake community didn't end at the dinner table. Dave Power, a passenger who was flying with his wife to be with family in St. John's, said, “When we finished eating, my wife and I got our bags and came out to the front of the hotel to find a long line of cars.” Thanks to them, each passenger came back to the airport smoothly. “It was truly a ‘Come from Away Christmas’，” said Dave's brother Robert Power on Facebook.
This selfless devotion reminds us of a quite analogous story that happened in 2001, when townspeople came together to welcome thousands of passengers on planes because of the Sept. 11 attacks in the US. The Tony Awardwinning musical Come From Away got inspiration from the kindness of these people. It details the efforts of community members who took care of the thousands of travellers for several days.
32．What can we know about the passengers on the plane from the passage?
A．They came from the same community.
B．They rushed into shops for holiday food.
C．They were stuck in Deer Lake due to bad weather.
D．They came to Deer Lake to celebrate Christmas.
33．What can we learn about Mr Snow?
A．His post online received positive reactions quickly.
B．He seldom spent Christmas Day with his family.
C．He once worked in the local aircraft company.
D．His friend came to Deer Lake to visit him.
34．What does the underlined word “analogous” in the last paragraph mean?
A．Strange. B．Terrible.
C．Funny. D．Similar.
35．What does the author want to express by mentioning the story happening in 2001?
A．To praise the kindness from strangers.
B．To honor the customs of the Deer Lake community.
C．To show the importance of preparing for disasters.
D．To stress the great influence of social media.

阅读下面的材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Several years ago, I was living in New York and working for an airline, so I never got back home for Christmas.My Christmas was happy too with some other colleagues around.But in my heart, I was sad because I couldn't stay with my family.Sometimes my colleagues would say our Christmas was filled with tears.But this Christmas was different.I was lucky.I had the whole day off, which meant I could stay with my family on Christmas Eve.
When Christmas morning came, I awoke to a small hand rubbing my face.“Dad.Merry Christmas！” was all my younger son had time to say.He seemed to be racing against time.I knew he was hunting for gifts with his brother eagerly.I got downstairs just to see the two little boys' faces as they looked at the pocket rockets Santa Claus had left them.I realized that the real Christmas was for the children who had deep belief in the amazing power of Santa Claus.At first, their fingers went almost shyly over their toys.When their inspection (检查) had been completed, the two boys ensured that the gifts were really delivered by Santa Claus and they dragged everything into the center of the living room.
Delight flooded the room.As their mother began giving out gins, I smiled to myself, wondering how my unexpected gifts this year would be received.With so many Christmas spent outside, I had prepared so many gifts for my children and together with my wife I hid them in several secret places.But the children were excellent detectives and they found all of them.They were happily opening packages constantly thanking considerate Santa Claus for his kindness and ability to know their desires. But I had not received a single one.I knew they had forgotten my existence with my absence from their Christmas these years.
