Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horseback riding.

When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown. ” I had no idea how to find Linda.

　Over the years, I missed Linda very well. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.

　One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman — Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but J still wrote to her.

She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother. ”

　Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!

What is the hottest topic at your school? In Hangzhou Yongjin Middle School, it’s money.

The school had an activity called “making a living” recently. About 800 Junior 1 and Junior 2 students were divided into 112 teams. They went out to make money by selling things.

What did they choose to sell? Some sold newspapers; some chose bottled water; some sold environmentally friendly shopping bags and bamboo baskets.

Huqi’s team decided to sell educational books in front of the Children Activity Centre. They thought parents would like to buy books for their children. But unfortunately(不幸地), they came across urban management officers(城管). The officers asked them to leave. “We played hide-and-seek with the officers for the whole morning,” said Hu. “Finally we gave up and moved to other place.

Wang Yongyi and her team sold ice cream in a square. They didn’t meet any officers. But few people were interested in what they were selling. The team then put up a board saying the money was to help the “Project Hope” for country kids. It worked. More people came to their stall. A foreigner even gave them 100 yuan.

Meng Zhaoxiang and his team were luckier. They sold all their cakes in four hours, spending 39.5 yuan and getting back 80 yuan. “It was not easy to make the money,” said Meng. “Some people just looked. Others just tasted but didn’t buy. Now I know how hard it is for our parents to earn the money we need to lead happy lives.”

A. earning money B. passing exams C. helping Project Hope D. selling books

67. Who took part in the activity?

There are many things we need to know, but we do not learn them at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare(比较) the prices of things in different shops. We need to be able to compare the quality of different brands (品牌). We need to know how to make sensible choices when we shop.

Knowing how to make such choices is a “life skill”, and we need the skill if we want to lead a useful and happy life.

Some of these choices are small. For example, will I have an apple for lunch or a pear? Will I take a bus to school today or will I walk? Will I wear the red T- shirt or the blue one to go to the movie? Other choices are more important. For example, will I eat healthy food for lunch or will I eat junk food? Will I work hard on all my classes or will I work hard only in the classes I enjoy? We make choices like these every day.

Making wrong choices can cause unhappiness. We have to realize that the choices we make can affect the rest of our life. And our choices can also affect other people. If you decide to waste time in class, play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the movie, consider this: who else does your choice affect?

根据短文内容，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳答案(10分)。

71. can help us use our money wisely when we shop.

A. Choosing good brands B. Comparing the price and quality

C. Going to big shops D. Learning business at school

A．Will I have an apple for breakfast? B．Will I walk to school today?

C．Will I study harder at English? D．Will I wear my blue jeans to go to the party?

 It began with one red paper clip (回形针) and ended with a house. Kyle MacDonald, a 26-year-old Canadian, got a three-bedroomed house through 14 trades (交换) that started with a single red paper clip. 
     Encouraged by Kyle's successful experience, now more and more young people around the world are starting their own trading activities. They set up websites where people can trade things they do not usually use with other people. A website called Peerflix allows people to trade their used DVDs. These traders usually prefer face-to-face tracing, which means they don't have to worry about who is going to pay for the delivery (递送). 
     Last year, a young girl in Beijing decided to follow the example of Kyle. She started with a paper clip and hoped to get a house in the end. After several trades she now has a piano which is worth more than 10,000 yuan. But she may still have a long way to go. 
     You may be puzzled about why people are doing this. In fact, everyone in the trade activities gets things that are useful to them. Just as Kyle said, "What's more important to a man dying of thirst in the desert--one million dollars or a glass of water?" Kyle's words probably show why these trades are popular among young people.

1. What did Kyle get in the end through 14 trades?

2. Where can people trade things they do not usually use?
