He stopped right next to me to greet his family.First he kissed his three children one by one and said
37、, “Its nice to see you. I missed you so much!” Then he hugged his wife, “Ive saved the best for last!” giving her the longest, most passionate kiss I ever remember seeing. They stared at each others eyes, smiling at one another, while holding both hands. For an instant they reminded me of newlyweds,
38、 but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldnt possibly be.Full of admiration, I asked, “Wow! How long have you two been married?” “Being together for fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” He replied, without breaking his gaze from his lovely wifes face. “Well, then, how long have
39、you been away?” I asked. “Two whole days!” “Two days?” I was astonished. By the intensity (热烈) of the greeting, I had assumed hed been gone for at least several weeks if not months. I knew my expression betrayed me, so I turned away my eyes and said quietly, “I hope my marriage is still that passion
40、ate after so long!” The man suddenly stopped smiling and looked me straight in the eye.

45、ericans prefer to save the best for last C Most young architects -particularly those in big cities -can only dream about working in a building of their own. And making that dream come true often means finding a building no one else seems to want, which is exactly what happened to David Yocum and his
46、 partner, Brain Bell. Their building is a former automobile electrical parts firm in Atlanta. From the outside, it looks too old, even something horrible, but open the door and you are in a wide, open courtyard, lined on three sides with rusting (生锈的)walls. In 2000, Yocum and Bell found this buildin
47、g in the citys West End. Built in 1947, the structure had been abandoned years earlier and the roof of the main building had fallen down. But the price was right, so Yocum bought it. He spent eight months of his off-hours on demolition (拆除), pulling rubbish out through the roof, because it was too d
48、angerous to go inside the building. The demolition was hard work, but it gave him time to think about what he wanted to do, and “to treasure what was therethe walls, the rust, the light,” Yocum said. “Every season , more paint falls off the walls and more rust develops. Its like an art installation
49、（装置） there-a slow-motion show.” Since the back building had been constructed without windows, an all-glass front was added to the building to give it a view of the courtyard, and skylights were installed in the roof. The back of the building is a working area and a living room for Yocum and his wife
50、. A sort of buffer(缓冲)zone between the front and the back contains a bathroom, a kitchen and a mechanical room, and the walls that separate these zones have openings that allow views through to the front of the studio and the courtyard beyond. Yocum and Bell, who have just completed an art gallery f
51、or the city, feel that the experience from decoration of their building, focusing on the inside rather than the outside, has influenced their work. It has also given these architects a chance to show how they can make more out of less. 63. According to the passage, it is for most young architects in
52、 big cities to work in a building of their own. A. easy B. unnecessary C. unrealistic D. common64Yocum bought the old building because _. A. it was a bargain to himB. it was still in good conditionC. it was located in the city centerD. it looked attractive from the outside65. It can be inferred from
53、 the passage that Yocum and Bell _. A. benefited a lot from pulling down the roof B. turned more old buildings into art galleriesC. got inspiration from decorating their old buildingD. paid more attention to the outside of the gallery66. The main idea of the passage is that _. A. people can learn a
54、lot from their failuresB. it is worthwhile to spend money on an old buildingC. people should not judge things by their appearanceD. creative people can make the best of what they have DA new study has found no evidence that sunscreen, commonly used to reduce the risk of skin caner, actually increase
55、s the risk.Researchers from the University of Lows based their findings on a review of 18 earlier studies that looked at the association between sunscreen use and melanomas(黑素瘤). They said that they found flaws in studies that had reported associations between sunscreen use and higher risk of melano
56、ma.Most health experts believe that by protecting the skin from the harmful effects of the sun, sunscreen helps prevent skin cancer, which is increasing in incidence (发生率) faster than any other cancer in the United States.But questions have been raised about sunscreen and whether it may have the opp
57、osite effect, perhaps by allowing people to remain exposed to the sun longer without burning.The researchers said that among the problems with some earlier studies is that they often failed to take into account that those people most at risk for skin cancerpeople with fair skin and freckles （雀斑）,for
58、 exampleare more likely to use sunscreen. As a result, it may appear that sunscreen users get cancer more often.The studies, which generally relied on volunteers to recall their sunscreen use, were also unable to prove how well the products had been applied, said the new study.67.The underlined word
59、 “flaws” in the 2nd paragraph most probably means .A. evidencesB. factsC. faultsD. failures68.People with fair skin and freckles .A. seldom use sunscreenB. are more in danger of skin cancerC. can be free from the harm of the sunD. often expose themselves to the sun69.We can learn from the passage th
60、at .A. sunscreen users get skin cancer more oftenB. the volunteers have proved the effect of sunscreenC. the new study was based on the experiences of volunteersD. the number of skin cancer patients is increasing in America70.Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?A. Sunscreen
