22、I didn’t think I had a passion (激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show.

It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.

On that day I went with my mom to drop my sister off at the gym (体育馆). 【1】 Then, as my mom stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags (破旧衣服). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I saw many like him before.

【2】 This man was not sitting down with a sad expression (表情). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the best thing he had.

“Mom, why does that man have a radio even though he’s homeless?” I asked.

“He bought it,” she replied.

“But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? 【3】”

“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness, too.”

That man must care enough about music to buy a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to. 【4】

C．But in a way he was different.

D．He wasted it on something he doesn’t need.

23、Have you ever noticed how busy our roads are becoming? Every year more and more cars are using them. Already in such countries as America, almost every family has a car. Many accidents happen because cars are now made to travel very fast. Also, people waste time and money every day as long lines of cars move slowly into towns and cities. In most big towns it is very hard to find parking spaces.

Wide, smooth (平的), straight (直的) roads must be built now in place of the old and narrow roads. These roads must not pass through towns and cities. They must not be crossed by other roads.

Today such roads are being built（在建造中） in many countries in the world. These roads have at least two lanes（车道）, one for slow-moving traffic and the other for fast-moving traffic.

These roads do not pass through town and cities; horses and bikes are not allowed on them.

Accidents do not usually happen. Cars can travel hundreds of miles without having to stop.

But these modem roads often cannot be built in towns and cities. Before a road in a town can be made wider, many buildings have to be pulled down.

Some people feel that more car-parks should be built outside a city, then the drivers should leave their cars and catch a bus or take a taxi to their offices.

【1】The writer thinks that many accidents happen because___________.

A. roads are old and narrow

B. roads go across each other

C. people drive their cars too fast

D. all of the above

【2】How are the new roads different from old roads?

A. They have at least two lanes.

B. They cross over one another.
