A few months ago I was at a bus stop in town in the evening. The bus came on time and I took the window seat. The bus was running by the seashore and I was enjoying the wind while watching the sea waves. After a few minutes the bus made its next stop. A young boy and a girl got on. They were standing on my left when the bus pulled off. I looked at them curiously and realized that all the window seats were taken up. They could sit but not together. Suddenly a different wave passed through my body and my mind gave me the advice to get up. I got up and gave them my seat. The young lady smiled kindly and said thanks. I took another seat. I don’t remember whether I got off the bus before them or not.
Months passed by. Suddenly one day while I was standing at the same bus stop waiting some time for the bus to arrive I heard a voice.
“Excuse me, Uncle.” I looked in the direction of the voice. It was a beautiful young lady.
Puzzled, I said, “I do not recognize you.”
She said, “Do you remember you gave us your window seat?”
Puzzled, I said, “Maybe, but what is so great in that?”
She said, “If you had not given your seat that day, perhaps I would have not sat with my friend. By sitting together it helped us break up a misunderstanding that had been between us for a long time. Do you know we are getting married next month?”
“Good! God bless both of you,” I replied.
The young lady again said thank you and went on her journey. I realized the importance of giving that day.What does the underlined word “curiously” mean?

Actually, long-distance bicycle camping is one of the happiest activities I have ever experienced. I generally sleep poorly at night, but in the woods on a tour, I sleep like a baby with the music of insects. In the morning, birds wake me up. I eat a snack before getting up, and then I quickly pack my sleeping bag, tent, and other things and get on the road. Usually I have less speed. Traveling by bike allows me to stop anywhere, such as lakes（especially places to swim）, woods, and scenic spots（景点）.
Somewhere near lunch, I find a small drugstore and buy some bread, sandwich materials, and fruit. In the afternoon, my speeds are higher, and I spend less time at stops. In the late afternoon, I start thinking about stopping. I finally find a place in the early evening, cook a simple meal, and rest and cool off. As it starts to get dark, I put up my tent, and fall asleep.
There are exciting times and difficult times as well. Visiting strange or famous places are always exciting to me. I meet and talk with interesting people along the way. Enjoying beautiful scenes, meeting wild animals（usually at my camping site）, and traveling up and down hills also make me cheerful. On the other hand, I may run into rainy or hot days, have to repair my bike, or just find myself in a bad state. The problems are easily dealt with. The pleasures remain in my mind for years.Where does the writer usually have a good sleep?

WHAT would you do if you were invisible(隐形的)?To many people, this is a fun question.
Do you think this can be true? With recent talks of making invisibility a reality, this fun question could actually become a real problem for people and their governments to consider.
It has recently been reported that researchers in the United States and England are confident that they understand, in theory(理论), how to create an invisibility cloak(斗篷), similar to the one that Harry Potter received from his father. They have already begun to work on it, and are asking for help in developing the material that would be used to create this invisibility cloak.
“Is it science fiction? Well, it’s a theory and that already is not science fiction,” said Professor Sir John Pendry. “It’s possible in theory to do all these Harry Potter things, but we should face the challenge, that is our engineering ability.
“Now, no invisibility cloak has been made yet, but the first testing of invisibility technology could be soon,” said Pendry. “We will have a cloak after not too long.”
Though the idea sounds great, it could be a bad thing if it is used in wars.
What is the biggest problem if we make invisibility a reality?
| A．Engineering ability. | B．Money. |
| C．Material. | D．Water. |
Which of the following words shares the closest meaning with “fiction” in the 4th paragraph?
| A．发明 | B．理论 | C．小说 | D．机器 |
What is the author’s attitude toward invisibility’s becoming a reality?
| A．Agree. | B．Disagree. |
| C．A little worried. | D．We don’t know. |
How is the passage organized?
| A．Topic---Supporting examples |
| B．Opinion---Discussion---Description |
| C．Main idea--- Comparison (比较) |
| D．Introduction---examples---Conclusion（结论） |
