Have you ever seen snow? Many people in the world have not. Some countries never have snow; some have only a little on the tops of very high mountains. In the north of England, there is quite a lot of snow every winter, but in the south of England, there is usually little.
When a student from a warm country comes to England in autumn for the first time, he feels cold at first. There are often dark clouds, grey sky and cold rain in England in autumn; and most students from warm countries do not like this.
But snow is different. Though it is cold, it is also beautiful. Perhaps, after several dark mornings, the student wakes up one day, and there is a lot of light in his room. He thinks "Is it so late?" and jumps out of bed. But no, it is not very late. He looks out of the window and there is the snow on the ground and on the houses and everywhere. The light of his room comes from clean, beautiful snow.
56. In which part of England is there much snow in winter?
A. In the east B. In the south C. In the west D. In the north.
57. In the autumn of England, we can NOT often see______.
A. strong winds B. dark clouds C. grey sky D. cold rain
58. The writer thinks that in England both snow and autumn rain are________.
A. beautiful B. clean C. cold D. heavy
59. Why does the student ask himself "Is it so late?"
A. Because it's really late. B. Because he has some work to do.
C. Because it is bright in the room. D. Because he usually gets up early.
60. Which of the following statements(陈述) is right?
A. Every country in the world has snow in winter.
B. Many people in the world haven't seen snow.

The date was like any other day in his life. After school David walked past the shop on the street corner. He stopped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt sorry for himself. He really wanted to have a new pair for his birthday.
He sadly walked away and thought of how to tell his mother. He knew she would give him anything if she could. But he also knew very well she had little money. He decided not to go home at once, as he looked worried and he didn’t want to make his mother worry about it. So he went to the park and there he sat on the grass. Then he saw a girl in a wheel chair(轮椅). He found that the girl moved the wheels with her hands. David looked at her carefully and was surprised to see that the girl had no feet. He looked down at his own feet. “It is much better to be without shoes than without feet.” It was not right for him to feel so sorry and sad. He went away and smiled, thinking he was luckier in life.
