"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer." This thought by Thoreau strike a chord in so many people that it has 21 part of our language.

The world over, children 24 "pick up" their society's time concepts as they mature. No dictionary clearly 25 the meaning of "early" or "late" for them or for strangers who stumble over the maddening differences 26 the time sense they bring with them and the one they face in a new land.
I learned this firsthand, a few years ago, when I 27 an appointment as visiting professor of psychology at the federal university in Niterol, Brazil. Onmy first day of class I arrived to find an empty room. The class was 28 from 10:30 until noon. Many students came late, some very late. Several arrived after 10:30. A few, 29 closer to 11:00. Two came after that. All of the late comers wore the relaxed smiles that I came, later, to enjoy. Each one said hello, and although a few 30 briefly, none seemed terribly concerned about lateness. They assumed that I understood.

Questions 31~35 are based on the following passage.
You'd be amazed at the stuff that turns up in a police department property room. Police recover things, then nobody claims them. All sorts of things. Cameras and stereo speakers, TV sets and tools and car radios. And once a year these unclaimed items are sold at auctions. This year at the police auction, there was a large number of bicycles.
When the very first bicycle came up and the auctioneer asked who'd start the bidding, a youngster right down in front said, "Five dollars." Tiny youngster--ten--maybe twelve.
"Pre got five, will you give me ten? Ten, who'd bid 157",
as the bidding continued the auctioneer looked back at the young lad down front. The
boy did not respond.
Later another bicycle came up, and again the boy bid $ 5 but would go no higher. This
went on through several bicycles. Each time the boy bid $ 5, never more. The bikes were
selling for $35 or $40, and some even for more than $100. during a brief rest, the
auctioneer asked the boy why he had let some of those good bikes sell without bidding higher. The lad explained that $ 5 was all he had.
Back to the auction. There were still some more bikes there to be sold. On each bike, the lad bid $ 5 and someone else bid much more.
But now the assembled crowd began to notice the boy who always opened the bidding. The crowd began to recognize what was happening.
After a tedious (冗长的) hour and a half, the auction started to wind down. But there was still one bicycle left, and it was a dandy(一流的东西).
A shiny, like-new ten-speed with 27-inch wheels, dual-position brake levers, stem shifters and a generator light set.
The auctioneer asked, "Do I hear a bid?"
And the young lad near the front--who hy now had all but gave up--quietly repeated: "Five dollars." ,
And the auctioneer stopped his chant. Just stopped. Stood'there.
And the audience sat silent. Not one hand was raised. Not one voice called out a second bid.
Until the auctioneer said, "SOLD! To the young man in the shorts and sneaker--for $5!'
And the audience applauded.
And a small boy's face lit up like one of the most beautiful sights you ever saw, as he traded the $ 5 scrunched up (揉皱) in his sweaty fist for what was surely the most beautiful hieyele in the world.

Questions 36~40 are based on the following passage.
Although American informality is well known, many visitors think that it indicates a"lack of respect". This is especially true in the business world. Americans often use first names upon meeting a stranger and do not always shake hands. They often just smile and say "Hi" or "Hello", rather than using a more formal hand shake. It is good to remember that to an American such an informal greeting really mean the same thing as a more formal hand shake some place else.
Similarly Americans do not usually give a special "farewell" or hand shake to each person when they leave a party of business meeting. They will often just wave good-bye to the whole group or perhaps say, "Well, so long everybody, I'll see you tomorrow." They then will leave. No hand shake.
Americans seem either totally hurried and hard working or totally informal and at ease. Often you will see men Working at office desks without their chairs arid even put their feet up off the desk while they talk On the telephone. This is not meant to be rude.

When we talk about Australia and sport, we can't help thinking of surfing. I had the
pleasure of going to several sunny beaches near Sydney to find out about it. I was later told
that surfing was not invented in Australia. It began in Hawaii.
A surfer, must be both brave and skillful because surfing is a very dangerous sport.
That% why on every surfing beach you can find the special surf lifesaving service. Life
savers try in every way to save people in danger al the risk of losing their own lives, You
might have thought that those lifesavers were highly paid. No, just the opposite. They pay
to be members of a surf club. It is said that there are 14,000 lifesavers throughout Australia.
The annual surf carnival in Perth is one of the best in the world. There are competitions
in lifesaving, swimming and surfing. The lifesavers on parade are special attractions that ste
hard to resist. Lifesaving is' quite a Complicated procedure: the lifesaver wears a harness,
which is attached to the line. Then the line is wound around the reel. When the lifesaver
reaches the swimmer in danger the line is pulled in the other lifesavers on the beach. We own
those lifesavers a lot for making a risky sport a little safer.
51. Where did surfing originated?
52. How did the writer get to know surfing?
