15、2, a white gardenia was delivered to my house. No card came with it Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all. After a while I stopped trying to discover the senders name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper.But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be.

16、Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these imaginings. Shed ask me if there was someone for whom I had done special kindness. Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail Id delivered during the winter. As a girl, though, I had more fun

17、 imagining that it might be a boy I had run into.One month before my graduation, my father died. I felt so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance, and I didnt care if I had a new dress or not.

18、ings. She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable. In truth, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gar-denia-lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery(神秘)My mother died ten days after I was married. I was 22. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.

22、 fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as they age. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers(生育高峰期出生的人), and the same people who refused their parents way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.If you take into consideration feminism(女

23、权主义), a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable(必然的). In this society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple(紫色的) clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing.“The organization took the idea from a poem by Jen

24、ny Joseph that begins: “When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesnt go,” said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention.“The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing

25、 something for someone else,” Cooper said. “Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves.” This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. “Were a ladies play group. It couldnt be more simple,” added Coopers assistant Joe Heywood.44The under

29、ike to appear more attractive Cthey would like to have fun and live for themselves Dthey want to be more like their parents CTaiwan police cannot decide whether to treat it as an extremely eleven act of stealing or an even elev-ecer cheat (诈骗). Either way , it could be the perfect crime (犯罪), becaus

30、e the criminals are birdshorning pigeons ! The crime begins with a telephone message to the owner of a stolen car : if you want the car back, pay up then, the car owner is directed to a park, told where to find a bird cage and how to attach money to the neck of the pigeon inside . Carrying the money

31、 in a tiny bag , the pigeon flies off .There have been at least four such pigeon pick-ups in Changwa.

Also, the amount of money demanded-under 3,000 Taiwanese dollars seems too little for a car worth many times more .Demands for pigeon-delivered money stopped as soon as the pres

34、s reported the story. And even if they start again, Chen holds little hope of catching the criminal . “We have more important things to do, ” he said .49After the car owner received a phone call. He Awent to a certain pigeon and put some money in the bag it carried Bgave the money to the thief and h

35、ad his car back in a park Csent some money to the thief by mailDtold the press about it 50The “lazier and more inventive” criminal refers to .Athe car thief who stays at home Bone of those who put the ads in the paper Cone of the policemen in Changwa Dthe owner of the pigeons 51The writer mentions t

36、he fact that “none of the stolen cars have been returned” to show .Ahow easily people get fooled by criminals Bwhat Chen thinks might be correct Cthe thief is extremely clever Dthe money paid is too little 52The underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refers to .Acriminals Bpigeons Cthe stolen

37、cars Ddemands for money 53We may infer from the text that the criminal knows how to reach the car owners because .Ahe reads the ads in the newspaper Bhe lives in the same neighborhood Che has seen the car owners in the park Dhe has trained the pigeons to follow them DYou might think that “global war

38、ming” means nothing more than a rise in the worlds temperature But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation（撤离）of an island nationthe citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.During the 20th century ,sea level rose 812 inches.
