A boy was born into a large family in New York. Growing up in poverty( 贫困 ), he could hardly see any hope for the future and thought himself valueless.
When the boy turned 13, his father showed him an old shirt and asked, “How much is it worth ”
“Probably $ 1.” he replied.
“Can you sell it at $ 2 ” the father looked at him.
“Only a fool will pay for it.” the boy shouted.
“Why don’t you have a try ” his father encouraged.
The boy nodded and said, “I will think of some way, but I can’t promise anything.” He
carefully washed the old shirt and smoothed out the crease(褶皱) in it. The next day, he came to a
crowded subway station. After about six hours, he sold it to a man. He held the two dollars tight and
ran all the way home excitedly.
After ten days, the father asked his son, “Can you sell an old shirt at $ 20 ”
“No way! Its value is only $ 2.” the boy argued.
“I believe you can come up with a good idea again.” said his father.
The boy asked his cousin who was good at painting to draw a cute Mickey Mouse on the old
shirt. This time he chose to sell it at the gate of a private school. Soon, it was sold to a little girl. She
loved the design so much that she tipped him $ 5. Twenty-five dollars was the same amount of
money that his father got a month. The money meant a lot to him and his family.
When the boy got home, his father handed him another old shirt and asked him to sell it at
$200. Surprisingly, the boy took the shirt without any hesitation.
The chance appeared when a famous soccer star came to New York for a football game. The
boy went there with the old shirt. He made his way through the crowd and asked for his
signature(签名). The star smiled and signed the old shirt. The boy then shouted to the crowd, “This
shirt is priced at $ 200!” It was not long before a businessman bought the shirt at $ 1,200.
Hearing the news, the father was pleased and asked, “My son, what did you learn from selling
these three old shirts ”
( ) 30. What did the boy do to sell the T-shirt at $20

C. He asked the famous star to sign on it. D. He sold it to the little girl.

( ) 32. Why did the father ask his son to sell old T-shirts

Many of you have probably had this experience: You get on a train and are ready to take a nap or read a book, only to find that the passenger in front of you is watching a TV show on his tablet without headphones. The child next to you won’t stop crying. And the old lady behind you talks on her phone during the whole trip. Wish the train could be less noisy There might be a solution for you. The Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, one of China’s busiest high-speed rail lines, will have “quiet” carriages (车厢) starting from Dec 23, Xinhua reported.
In quiet carriages, onboard videos will be muted (静音) and announcements will be made at a lower volume. Doors at the ends of the carriage will be kept closed to reduce noise from other carriages, CGTN noted. Train attendants (乘务员) will be responsible for making sure that passengers remain quiet and follow the rules.
Passengers who are willing to follow the rules can choose the quiet carriages when booking (预定)
their tickets, according to China’s national railway operator.
Some people have pointed out that this kind of quiet environment should be offered in all carriages. They say that having quiet carriages might give people the impression that they don’t need to be quiet in non-quiet carriages.
While some Internet users are in favor of the new service, others have some doubts about how quiet
travelers should be in quiet carriages. For exsample, they have raised questions such as “What if I snore (打呼噜) ” and “Can we talk to our friends if we need to ”
( )35. Which example could be added into the first paragraph?
The man next to you is smoking.
B. The train attendants are providing you with terrible service.
C. The young girl in front of you is singing in a loud voice.
D. The boy behind you is doing his homework.
( )36. Why did the writer mention the train experience
A.To give some advice B.To lead into the main topic
C.To share his idea D.To introduce a new research
( )37. Which of the following descriptions about quiet carriages is TRUE
A. No announcements will be made. B. No one will make sure passengers follow the rules.
C. Passengers won’t be allowed to watch videos. D. The doors of these carriages will stay closed.
( )38. The phrase “in favor of” in the last paragraph means ________.
赞同 B. 反对 C. 讨论 D. 质疑
( )39. What’s the passage mainly about
A. The noise from the train B. Suggestins on the internet use
