One day，when I arrived at school，an ice cream truck was parked in the school-yard．Ice cream men usually drove their trucks to primary schools．I had never thought one ice cream truck would come to bring ice cream to us older kids. When I went up to the truck, I was quite surprised to hear the man call out,\make sure of his words, I asked,\said smiling.
After I was certain that the man was just giving away the ice cream, I talked with him for a long time. He told me that his dream had always been to travel around giving away ice cream，and that’s what he was now doing．With his mother's support，he kept doing what he loved even during hard times．Now，however，some large companies are helping him with his plan．
The man said he wanted to encourage people to do exactly what their heart told them to do with their lives．I kept asking him．\goal. \，just meeting people and making them smile，\．At that point he handed me my ice cream．I thanked him，but what I got from him was much more than just an ice cream．It can’t easily be expressed in words．I believe what he was doing is exactly what great people do all the time：small acts of big love． 66．From the story we know that the writer was most probably _______ at that time． A．a middle school student B．a primary school student C．a middle school teacher D．a primary school teacher 67．Why did the writer ask the ice cream man what he had said again?

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents，however，it is not true．
Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages．If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents，don’t worry about it．Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap(消除代沟)． Don’t argue with your parents．Don’t get to your parents when you are angry．Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise(和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect(尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. 71. The passage tells us _____ have a communication problem. A. parents and other people B. school kids and their parents C. teachers and their students D. parents and children of all ages 72. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you _______ A. don't get to them often B. write a letter to them C. don't speak to them politely D. express yourself well
73. The underlined phrase \ ___________. A. to make yourself happy B. to get you quiet and relaxed C. to have a good rest D. to hide yourself quickly
74. If there's really a generation gap between you and your parents, you'd better______ A. have a talk with them often B. keep away from them C. agree with them all the time D. argue with them 75. From the passage we learn that ________
A. parents and children should not have a generation gap B. parents should show love and respect to their children C. there are some good ways to bridge the generation gap D. there are so many serious problems in families today

Imagine there is a bank that puts $86,400 in your account each morning．It carries over no balance from day to day．Every evening the bank writes off(把……勾销) the balance that you failed to use during the day．What would you do? Take out every cent，of course!
Each of us has such a bank. Its name is TIME. Every morning, it puts in 86,400 seconds. Every evening it writes off, as it is lost. There is no balance or overdraft (透支) .If you fail to use the day's savings, the lost is yours. There is no going back. There is no taking from \more in health, happiness and success!
The clock is running. Make the most of today. To realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade; To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth to a premature (早产) baby; To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper; To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet; To realize the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who missed the train; To realize the value of ONE SECOND, ask a person who just avoided(避免) an accident.
Make good use of every moment that you have. Remember that time waits for no one.
