Boys always laughed at me because of it. So I became an extremely shy young lady.One day Mr. Hadley told us that we would be required to come to the front of the class and read the reports that we had completed.When my turn came, I refused to stand in front of all those students and open up to their tricks. Mr. Hadley handed me my report and asked me to read it. I gave it back to him. He walked to the front and said, “Martha has a very good reporthere and I think everyone needs to hear her read it. If you make strange noises or make fun of her in any way, I will let you fail right here and now. OK?”Mr. Hadley walked back to me and handed me the paper again, asking me to go to the front of the class. I walked there on legs that were shaking and I felt a rabbit in my chest. Everyone was all quiet, including those boys. I stood there trying to be calm.Mr. Hadley walked over to me and put his arm around me,“You can do it. I have confidence in you!”His words helped me calm down. I read the report and instead of the kids laughing at me and making fun of me, they all stood up and clapped their hands.From that day on the kids never made fun of me any more and some actually made friends with me.

Even though it is in the busiest part of the city, it has grass and trees around it, and benches for people to sit on. Even more unusual in crowded New York, its rooms are very large. The roof of the Main Reading Room is 51 feet high. Here, a reader can sit and work in comfort.The library has over thirty million books and paintings. It owns one of the first copies of a Shakespeare’s play, a Bible printed in the 15th century, and a letter written by Columbus in which he tells of finding the new world.Every New Yorker can visit the library and use its riches -- free.But the cost of running the library has risen sharply in recent years, and the library has not enough money to continue its work. In the past, it was open every day. Now it is closed on Saturdays and Sundays and every evening to save money.The library is trying to raise more money to meet its increasing cost.Well-known writers and artists are trying to help. So are the universities, whose students use the library, and the government of New York City. But the problem remains serious.Yet a way must be found to save the library because, as one writer said,“The Public Library is the most important building in New York City -- it contains all our knowledge.”41. Where is the New York Public Library?A. Outside New York.B. In the north of the city.C. In the busiest part of New York.D. In the heart of a university.42. What can be found in the library?A.

New Yorkers don’t have to pay to use the library.C. Famous writers don’t have to pay to use the library.D. The main reading room of the library is 15 feet high.CIf you ask someone why he or she wears clothes, the answer will probably be "to keep warm and to cover my body". These are the basic reasons why clothes are worn, but people also want to look attractive and appear successful to others.If people only wore clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies, most clothes would be simple and cheap. In most Western countries, however, clothes are sometimes very expensive. The main reason for this is not the cost of the cloth or the cost of making the clothes. The clothes are expensive because of fashion（时尚）.Successful businessmen, for example, often wear very expensive suits, shirts and ties. Sometimes they pay thousands of dollars for a suit and hundreds of dollars for a tie. It’s just a suit and a tie but they pay these prices because of the famous name of the designer. A suit costing much less would be just as warm and would cover the wearer's body just as well.Fashion is always changing, which means those who want to be fashionable have to buy new clothes every few months, even if last month's clothes have only been worn once or twice. Some people have wardrobes full of clothes that have hardly been worn but are no longer in fashion. Being fashionable, therefore, can bea very expensive pastime(消遣)!46. What do people basically wear clothes for?A. Looking attractive to others.B. Following the fashion.C. Appearing successful to others.D. Keeping warm and covering bodies.47. The main reason why clothes are sometimes very expensive is that _______.A. one has to buy new clothesB. these clothes are in fashionC. the cost of the cloth is highD. making clothes costs much48. We can learn from the passage that _______.A. expensive clothes are not worth their pricesB. fashion is not always changingC. expensive clothes are warmerD. fashion designers like expensive clothes49. What does the underlined word “wardrobes”in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Fashionable clothes shops.B. The clothes that some people have.C. Cupboards for storing clothes.D. Shelves used for keeping books.50.
