A small ,white envelope is on the branches of our Christmas tree and it has been there for the past ten y ears or so.

It all began because my husband Justin hated Christmas―oh, not the true meaning of Christmas. Overspending was one thing, but compared to the difficult experience of choosing gifts―running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and a pair of gloves for Grandma…, spending money is nothing. I felt too tired to think of any special gifts.

Knowing Justin felt the same way, I decided one year not to buy the usual shirts, sweaters, ties and so on. I reached for something special just for Justin. The inspiration came in an unusual way.

Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling （摔跤）at the junior level at the school he attended; and shortly before Christmas, there was a match against a team sponsored (赞助) by an inner-city church. These youngsters, dressed in such worn-out(破旧的) shoes that shoe strings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, while our boys were in their blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes.

As the match began, I was shocked to see that the other team were wrestling without wearing helmets (头盔) to protect their ears. Well, our boys ended up defeating(战胜) them. We took every weight class.

Justin, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, “I wish just one of them could have won,” he said. “They have a lot of potential, but losing like this could take the heart out of them.” Justin loved kids―all kids, and he knew them, having coached little league football and baseball. That’s when the idea for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local sporting goods store and bought different kinds of wrestling helmets and shoes. I sent them to inner-city church without leaving my name.

On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Justin what I had done and that was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and since then the envelope has become the highlight of our Christmas.

56. Justin hated Christmas because _____.

A. he didn’t enjoy receiving gifts                      

B. he had a hard time choosing gifts

C. he spent too much money buying gif ts  

D. he disliked putting gifts under the Christmas tree

57. We know from the passage that the team sponsored by inner-city church_____.

A. were well dressed                                        B. paid no attention to safety 

C. feared Kevin’s team                                     D. couldn’t afford a helmet

58. How did Justin feel about the team’s failure ?

A. Sad                     B. Angry                   C. Happy              D. Embarrassed

59. Why did the writer send gifts to the inner-city church without leaving her name ?

A. To avoid being thanked                                 B. To play a joke on Justin

C. To give Justin a surprise                                 D. To protect her private information

阅读短文，根据要求完成下面各小题。

Want to buy a bottle of water in the shopping mall but hate the long queue? It would be perfect if there were a vending machine(自动售货机) nearby!

Normal vending machines are small machines that sell basic things like food and drink. You can find them around populated(人口密集的)areas. People love them because they’re available 24 hours a day and they don’t need salespeople.

But in some places around the world, vending machines don’t just offer soft drinks and snacks. They have other features.

China

In Nan Jing, you can buy fresh, alive crabs(螃蟹)from a vending machine. Five different kinds of crabs are available. The price of each crab is between 15-50yuan, depending on the size. To keep the crabs alive, the machine’s temperature must stay at 5°C, cold enough to keep them asleep and warm enough to keep them breathing.

The Netherlands

In the Netherlands there is a restaurant chain(连锁) that serves food out of vending machines. It’s called FEBO. It is open 24 hours a day. FEBO offers a Dutch menu including frikandels (deep-fried sausage) and kaassouffles (melted cheese snack). But rather than being prepared(准备) in the vending machine, the food is prepared by humans in a kitchen behind the vending machine.

Us

With MooBella Ice Creamery Machine, you can design your own ice cream in 40 seconds, according to the company. The machine uses a touch screen. There are 12 kinds to choose from. If you want, you can also add chocolate chips and cookies to your ice cream. Each machine can sell 200 servings before it needs to be refilled.

Italy
