s to buy holiday presents for those he loved. The third Saturday in December Mark said that he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a hand basket and went off on his own while I waited patiently reading a book in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. The clerk rang in his purchases (把他所購物品輸入現(xiàn)金出入記錄器) as I politely looked the other way. Mark kept within his budget (預(yù)算) and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood in the middle of the store holding his basket, tears (眼淚) rolling down his cheeks. His whole body was shaking with his sobs. Then an amazing thing happened. A customer in the store came up to Mark. She knelt down and took him in her arms.“You would do me the greatest favour if you let me replace (補還) your money,” said the woman. “It would be the most wonderful present you could ever give me. I only ask that one day you pass it on. One day, when you are grownup, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help this other person, I know you will feel as good about it as I do now.”Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran to the checkout counter as fast as he could. I think we all enjoyed our gifts that year almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.I would like to say “thank you” to that very kind woman. I would like to tell her that four years later Mark went house to house collecting blankets and clothes for the homeless people in the Oakland fire-and he thought of her. And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on.Choose the best answers.(本篇每題1分)( )74. Mark saved all his pocket money to _____.

In just two years more than 200 million Internet users have opened accounts on Sina, Tencent and Sohu. And in those two years over 2 billion Weibos have been posted.Weibo is a microblogging 80 . Like America’s Twitter, it allows users to post small pieces of text (140 characters or less). But unlike Twitter, Weibo users can also post other content 81 photos, links and short videos. Weibo is a great way to connect with friends, celebrities and even government officials. It has also bee the way many people get their news and information. Since weibos are posted in real time, they are often ahead of newspaper and television reports. Scandal (丑聞) surrounding the Red Cross, the Palace Museum and the bullettrain crash were all 82 reported on Weibo.This “instant” (立即的) information is valuable but it can also be 83 . It can lead to the spread of harmful rumors (謠言). A recent Weibo reported that a young girl in Hubei was killed, but the suspected killer was allowed to get away with it because his father was a government official. The 84 was false (錯的), but it still damaged the reputations (名譽) of the people involved.Sina Weibo has started 85 users who post false information, but it’s difficult for any of the service providers to keep their eye on everyone. It’s really up to the users to use Weibo wisely. Spreading rumors or posting false information will only lessen the credibility (減少可信度) of microblogs and, in the end, make the reading of real time reports just a waste of time.80.
