But,41, I just smiled and reminded him that Chicago was a very 42city. He nodded, and I thought he was going to be content to drop the subject and talk about something else. But I was wrong. He was silent for a few minutes, and then he 43 to tell me all about his friend.His friends main44in life seemed to be tennis. He was an excellent tennis player , and he45had his own tennis court. There were a lot of people with swimming46, yet there were only two people with private tennis court; his friend in Chicago was one of them.

For a moment, we stared at each other, but we did not say anything.“Would your friends name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?” I asked finally. He 54and said, “Yes. Would your brothers name happen to be Dr Rey Hunter?” It was my55 to laugh. “Yes,” I replied.1、Abrother Bteacher Cneighbour Dfriend 2、Amanaged Bhappened Ctried Dwanted 3、Aexpecting Blying Cjoking Dtalking 4、Afunny Bserious Ccareful Ddisappointed 5、Athink Bfind Crealize Dsee 6、Aindeed Bactually Cinstead Dexactly 7、Afamous Binteresting Cnoisy Dbig8、Abegan Bstopped Crefused Dfailed 9、Aproblem Binterest Cchoice Dwork 10、Ajust Bever Ceven Dsurely 11、Asuit Bhabit Cpools Driver 12、Apeople Bplayers Cstrangers Dfriends 13、Aadvised Bargued Cadmitted Dannounced 14、Arecognized Brealized Cvisited Dfound 15、Ahow Bwhether Cwhen Dwhere 16、Abecause Bif Cthen Dthough 17、Adoctor Bfriend Cneighbour Dplayer 18、Ahired Bvisited Cdesigned Dsold 19、Asmiled Blaughed Ccried Dnodded20、Achance Bpleasure Ctime DturnSection II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts.

Im so sorry Im late.”Connie Chung was one of the only four women anchors （主播） to make it into the club of major evening network television news. For almost an hour we talked about the industry. When I asked if she ever had an instructor throughout her trials, she turned around and offered to instruct me.
