As a youngster, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons on my grandfather's farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and the barn provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.
I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls. My parents would never agree with me. The walls were old. Some stones were missing and others were loose and crumbling. Still, my wishing for climbing those walls grew so strong that, one spring afternoon, I finally gathered all my courage and entered the living room.
\the stone walls?\shouted. \expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather's loud voice. \just one minute.\for himself.\
\careful. Come and see me when you get back.\For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met my grandfather and told him about my climbing. I'll never forget what he said. \day just by being yourself. Always remember, there's only one person in this whole world like you and I like you exactly as you are.\

I have lived in Lawndale for thirty years. I have seen many things change. Some have been for the better and some for the worse. My neighborhood is a good one. I have friends here and my family lives here. My mother's home is two blocks away. My cousins live down the street. Progress starts with hope. That's something I learned a long time ago. You can look at things and complain. Or you can ask,\
My son came home from school in August with a plan. It was a plan his class made. They were going to turn a vacant lot into a garden. I said it would be a lot more work than he knew. He had a dream. He wanted to have lots of flowers in Lawndale. He said, if we turn the vacant lot (闲置地皮) across from the school into a garden, it will show everyone how much we care. And then more people will plant flowers and trees, so the community will get to be a really beautiful place.
I admired my son's idea. He has always been a thoughtful child. I said we would help. His class started by clearing out the trash （垃圾） from the lot. They needed lots of trash bags for that because they didn't just clear the lot. They cleaned trash from the street, too. People came by and saw the difference they made. I noticed after that people were not littering so much. It seems they got the idea that keeping things clean is not as hard as picking up all the trash if you litter a lot.
Then they put bulbs（鳞茎植物） in the ground. I think they planted about 500 bulbs. I helped, and I think I planted about 30 bulbs myself. This spring we'll see them flower. I think that everyone in the community will be inspired（鼓舞）.
A long time ago, someone said, \inspire a community. I am proud of my son.
66. The reading is about ______. A. a father and his son
B. the community‘s making progress C. the students‘ wonderful plan
D. a saying that goes for a long time 67. We learn from the reading _____.
A. more people come to Lawndale to live in
B. people are willing to keep the community clean C. the students turned the vacant lot into a ground D. the thoughtful son made another plan himself
68. The students needed lots of bags because they _____. A. didn‘t just pick up the trash from the lot B. needed them for carrying bulbs C. would give them out to more people D. wanted to put them everywhere for use
69. The old saying ?It takes a village to raise a child.‘ in the reading means _____. A. a village is large enough to raise a child B. all the village people help to raise a child C. it is not easy to raise a child
D. a child cannot be raised in the village 70. What the father did shows that ______. A. he was asked to carry out the plan B. he wanted his son to be proud of him C. other people began to help the students
