【正文】 new driveway and garage（車庫(kù)） beside our house．It meant to add something new to our home．When I watched the workman，I came up with an idea﹣﹣﹣I would build a car to drive into the garage in celebration of it．I told my mother and began with my plans．But I couldn39。t find the right things for making the car，so I gave up and sadly spent several days doing nothing．My mother noticed that I had stopped working and asked me why．I explained and she suggested that maybe I should change my plan to fit the things I had，rather than give up．And that39。s just what I did．I found small pieces of wood in my father39。s workshop and made my car from anything that was lying around the house．When I found a small engine（發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)） from one of my old model planes，I added that．The power came from a battery（電池） I found in a box．By the time the garage was finished，so was my car．I called my family together outside the house，started the engine and put the car on the driveway．It was fast，and I had to run to the garage to prevent it from hitting the new door．My family began to cheer and I smiled proudly．Thanks to my mother I learned the value of continuing to do things，especially something difficult．Soon I was making plans for my next project：a robot!51．The writer was　A　 when he made the model car．A．a(chǎn) student B．a(chǎn) driver C．a(chǎn) workman D．a(chǎn)n engineer52．The writer　A

China，guests are almost like gods．Whenever I enter a Chinese person39。s home，there is always fruit on the table for me，and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water．In the west，generally the

smoking in her house，as a non﹣smoker，I feel unhappy．Usually I want to stop them directly，but I must realize that in China，to be a good host，she must not do that．In most North America homes，if you are a guest，and the hosts are not smokers，you should not smoke in their house．At the very least，you could ask，Is it OK if I sm
