26、and rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers.

30、stepWhen I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldnt take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a de
31、livery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note - “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery” - and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And
32、then, the buttermilk would magically appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to out house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldnt f
33、reeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besid
34、es, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories.

38、ost influential band in pop history. In their 8-year, 12-album history, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr altered (改变 ) popular culture dramatically. And it wasnt just the suits and changing lengths of hair the four Liverpool boys wore that had such an impact, but what the
39、y seemed to stand for. The world saw them as the voice of a new generation, one with a very different attitude to life.Their influence was at its height in the 1960s, but their music continues to stir listeners today. However, up until recently one aspect of the Beatles was struck in Yesterday: The
40、music had never been remastered (重新灌录). But on September 9 that situation came to an end, with the release of the entire bands music in a digital makeover. It is probably the biggest reissue (重新发行) in pop music history, said British newspaper the Financial Times.The albums were remastered at Abbey R
41、oad Studios in London, the location where the band produced much of their work. The cover of their last album, Abbey Road of 1969, featured the four young men striding (大步行走) across a zebra crossing on Abbey Road itself. It is one of the most famous of all Beatles images.Recently, to celebrate the 4
42、0th anniversary of the album, hundreds of Beatles lovers gathered there to show their appreciation.Pop groups come and go. The boy band pursued by screaming fans one year will be forgotten the next. But the Beatles are one of the few groups whose music seems to have endured (持久). Why? Paul McCartney
43、s biographer Barry Miles has an explanation: “They were the first rock band and they just happened to be the best. They were the first band to play stadiums, to have their own products. They were ground-breaking in every way， ” he says.52Why did the Beatles change popular culture?ABecause of the sui
44、ts of the four Liverpool boys.BBecause of changing lengths of hair the four Liverpool boys wore.CBecause of their albums.DBecause of their different attitude to life.53Which of the following statements is FALSE according to the second paragraph?AThe Beatles influenced people at its height in the 196
45、0s.BTheir music Yesterday had never been remastered.CThe entire bands music in a digital makeover will be remastered.DOn September 9, their music came to an end.54What is their last album?AYesterday. BAbbey Road of 1969.CCome Together. DIn My life.55What is NOT the reason why their music can endure?
46、AThey were the first rock band.BThey were the best one.CThey were the first band to play stadiums and to have their own works.DThey wore special suits.第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。In the 60s, people asked about your astrological (about star) sign.
