When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle(奇迹) can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.
She hurried to a drugstore with the money in her hand.
“And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “he’s really, really sick and wants to buy a miracle.”“Pardon?” said the salesman.
“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?”“We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry.” The salesman said with a smile.
“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.”
A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”“I don’t know.”she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”

C
American eating is funny. People in America eat almost everything with a fork. And it seems that holding a knife in one’s right hand longer than a few seconds is thought to be against good table manners.
The system is that if it is necessary to use a knife, people take the fork in their left hands, and cut off a piece of meat or others. Then they put the knife down, transfer the fork to their right hands, and then transfer the food to their mouths with the fork. This is clearly funny, but it is considered good manners.
There are several results of this system. First, if it is not necessary to use a knife, Americans don’t use one, because this greatly complicates (使复杂化) things. Therefore, sometimes they will try to cut things like potatoes and even bacon with a fork. Second, since only one implement (器具) is being used, food has to be chased around the plate with the fork. Third, tables are usually laid with one knife and two forks. The outside fork is for the salad. There is no need for foreign visitors to follow the American system and try to eat the salad with only a fork, but if you do use your knife, remember to save it for the meat.
61. The word “transfer” most probably means “_________”.
A. move something from one place to another
B. move up and down
C. take away
D. throw into
62. From this passage we can know that _______.
A. Americans never use knives with their right hands
B. Americans eat everything with a knife
C. Americans use a fork to put food into their mouths
D. Americans don’t eat salad
63. According to the passage, Americans eat potatoes with a fork probably because ________.
A. there is no knife
B. it is interesting to use a knife
C. they are too busy to use a knife
D. they think it is complicated to use a knife
64. Which of the following about American eating is NOT true?
A. Holding a knife in one’s right hand longer is not good table manners.
B. Americans will not use a knife if they don’t need.
C. Tables are usually laid with one knife and two forks.
D. Foreign visitors are not allowed to use knives.
65. The best title for this passage is “_________”.
A. Right Hand or Left Hand
B. Knife or Fork
C. Eating Customs in America
D. Good Manners
阅读下面短文，把A—D 四个句子填入文中空缺处（66—69），使短文内容完整正确，然后完成第70题。

D
Packaging（包装）is an important part of advertising._____66_________. For example, a small child might ask for a breakfast food that comes in a box with a picture of a TV character（人物）.The child is more interested in the
picture than in breakfast food.
Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing. Food products sold in reusable(可再生利用的) containers (容器) are examples of this.

The size of a package also motivates a buyer. Maybe the package has “Economy Size” or “Family Size” printed on it. This suggests that the large size has the most products for the least money. ____68____To find out, a buyer has to know the product is sold and the price of the basic unit.
The information on the package should provide some answers. ____69________The words and the pictures do not tell the whole story. Only the product inside can do that.

C. But that is not always true
