One evening after dinner,Mr. and Mrs. Tisich called a family meeting. "We've had to make a difficult decision,"Mr. Tisich announced. "You see, your mother has been offered a post as co-director of a television in Chicago. Unfortunately, the station is not here. After thinking long and hard about it, we've concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago."
Marc looked shocked, while his sister Rachel breathlessly started asking when they'd be moving:"It's surprising, but exciting!" she said. Marc simply said, "We can't go-I can't leave all my friends. I'd rather stay here and live with Lyons!"
The Tisichs hoped that by the time they moved in August, Marc would grow more accustomed to the idea of leaving. However, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings.
When the morning of the move arrived, Marc was nowhere to be found. His parents called Tommy Lyons’ house,but Mrs. Lyons said she hadn't seen Marc. Mrs. Tisich became increasingly concerned, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly.
What they didn't know was that Marc had started walking over to Tommy's house, with a faint idea of hiding in Lyons’ attic for a few days. But something happened on the way as Marc walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood: the fence that he and his mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together. How much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place Marc didn't take the time to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartons the right size to hold his record collection.
25.The conflict in this story was caused by _____.

B.he realized his family was essential to him
C.he hoped to reach an agreement with his parents
D.he wished to be a more responsible person
28.What would most likely happen next

B.Mr. and Mrs. Tisich would call the police.
C.Marc would join his family for house moving.
D.Mr. and Mrs. Tisich would start searching for Marc.

It's been a dozen years since I saw that movie Cast Away, but I could still remember the compelling storyline, some extraordinary special effects, terrific on-screen support from a blood-stained volleyball and a remarkable performance by Tom Hanks.
But mostly I remember holding hands with Beth.
We went to see the movie as a family. I wasn't sitting by my wife, Anita. We had learned-the hard way-that keeping then 11-year-old Beth and her 9-year-old brother, Jon, away from each other was the best way to keep them from killing each other in the darkened theater. It wasn’t that they fought all the time;it's just that we never knew when a fight was going to erupt.
Just a few minutes into the movie-and I hope I'm not spoiling this for anyone-there's a frighteningly realistic plane crash. In fact, it was a little too frightening and a little too realistic for Beth's tastes. She leaned up against me, her head pressed against my shoulder, and reached over and took my hand, squeezing it tightly.
"It's OK, sweetie,”I said."Remember, it's only a movie. Just close your eyes and pretty soon it'll all be over."
And pretty soon it was. Within a few minutes the scary part was over for Beth and she was sitting up in her seat happily independent, her hands busy with popcorn and soda.
It wasn't long, however, before another scary part came along. Only this wasn't a scary part for Beth-this was a scary part for me. For as long as I can remember, I've been claustrophobic. You want to scare me to death Put me in a crowded elevator, and then make it stop. So when Tom Hanks started exploring that cave. I started cowering in my seat. Heart pounding. Palms sweating.
Suddenly I felt a hand reaching out in the darkness. It grabbed onto my hand firmly, squeezing reassuringly, as Beth again leaned up against me, her head again pressed against my shoulder.
"It's OK, Daddy, "she said. "Remember, it's only a movie. Just close your eyes, and pretty soon it’ll all be over. "
And pretty soon it was. Only this time, I didn't let go of Beth's hand after the scary part was over,and she didn't let go of mine. We just sat there through the rest of the movie, holding onto each other and helping each other through the movie's subsequent ups and downs.
That's how Beth and I made it through Cast Away. And it occurs to me that that's how we all make it through life, too. Although we like to think of ourselves as happily independent and self-reliant when the scary parts of life come-as they always do, eventually-it's comforting to be able to lean against family and friends, to hear their reassurance that everything is going to be OK and to reach out in the darkness to find a calm, reassuring hand.
29.We can learn from the text that Beth and Jon _____.
A.disliked the movie Cast Away B.fought all the time in the theater
C.were kept from flghting in the theater D.used to go to the movies together with her parents
30.What's the probable meaning of the underlined word "claustrophobic"in Paragraph 7
A.Anxious to explore something dangerous.
B.Afraid of being in a small enclosed place.
C.Excited at seeing the greatest part of a movie.
D.Unwilling to sit quite long in the theater.
31.What does the author really want to tell the readers
A.How Beth and he comfort each other.
B.How to be independent and self:reliant in life
C.How to make our life bright and meaningful.
D.How to get through the scary parts of life.
D
It would be perfect if you would not have to answer your boss, you would have flexible working hours and you would be able to earn satisfactory money without putting much effort. In order to live that successful life of freedom, you would need to become a successful businessman. You would need to build your online business in a way that it would be working like a self-replicating(自我复制的) system to create a continuous stream of income for you.
If you are looking for that self-replicating system, there are a number of products available in
market saying they can make you a millionaire in few days. I have been doing research about them and found a solution in the form of Coffee Shop Millionaire. It is a good way to create that self-replicating system to provide you a satisfactory income.
First of all, Coffee Shop Millionaire is not one of those tricks to make you a millionaire in few days. Instead, it is about creating a lifestyle of complete freedom. You can live wherever you want and work wherever and whenever you want to work without being answerable to anyone It is a complete product. It includes tools, training and step-by-step guidance to get you started to make money online.
No matter where you are and who you are, Coffee Shop Millionaire contains several ways to help you cam full-time income online. Specifically, it is recommended to go through its eight weeks of training from Six Figure Secrets Club and $21k System. These two areas specifically aim to teach you how to make money online.
As we have talked about its positive points, now let's have a look at its flaws(缺点). It has been observed that Coffee Shop Millionaire has just too much information to grasp for a beginner. If its product training and tools are more directional for beginners, it would be more effective.
If I have to give conclusive remarks about Coffee Shop Millionaire, I would say, if you could make use of all its tools and training properly, it can be beneficial for you to earn money online. However, if you just want to experiment with it, Coffee Shop Millionaire may not work for you.
