While talking to my supervisor the week before my sister's graduation, I mentioned that I would be 37 my sister's graduation by less than 48 hours.

I couldn't see the look on my sister's face as she opened the door, 49 I could tell from her voice that she was very 50 . After she saw her older sister sitting inside smiling up at her, she was completely lost 51 words, and I will never forget the look on her face as she opened the box.
It was such a gift to be able to attend my sister's graduation, and to show her my love by giving her the most 52 Christmas present in the history of our family.

第三部分 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分,满分30分）

A
Which tablet computer should YOU be buying: They are this year's must have... and there's a style to suit everyone？
Best for young children
LeapPad Explorer 2, £68 
Aimed at children between three and nine (though a nine-year-old might find it a little simple), it comes in pink or blue and with five built-in education games (you can buy more). Besides, the LeapPad does not allow access to the internet — so it is impossible for your child to stumble across anything inappropriate.
Pros: The education games are well-designed, the built-in video camera is a fun way to play at being a film director.
Cons: Some of the games are shockingly expensive. And the power adaptor is not included.
Best for teenagers
iPad 4th generation, £399-£659 
The iPad is still the market leader, and for good reason. If the teenager in your house enjoys playing computer games, the latest offering from Apple is the one to choose.
Pros: No other tablet can compete with the near one million ‘apps’ (the name Apple created for specially-designed downloadable programs) available for the iPad. Simple to use, even for those who usually struggle with technology.
Cons: Considerably more expensive than most competitors. 

Best for working parents
Microsoft Surface, £399-£559
Tablets are brilliant for leisure — but what if you want to do a bit of work? No tablet can yet compete with a full-size laptop computer, but  this is the only tablet  that allows you to use Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint (they are all pre-installed and included in the price) and you  can buy a pretty lovely mini- keyboard for typing letters and emails, which also doubles up as the cover.
Pros: The Surface is good for watching movies — a bonus when stuck in the airport on a business trip — and surfing the internet.
Con: The keyboard is an expensive add-on — costing up to £109. It might be cheaper to buy a laptop (though a tablet is much smaller and lighter).
Best for bookworms
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite, £109
Nearly all tablets let you download books. It's a great way to take a mountainous pile of hardbacks on holiday without stuffing your suitcase. 

But most tablets have a shiny screen — which can be very distracting when you're trying to read. The Paperwhite is different: its matt screen and crisp black lettering imitate the look of words on paper brilliantly. And yet you can still read the words in the dark.
Pros: Easy on the eye, excellent battery life, 180,000 free books (if you subscribe to the Amazon Prime customer loyalty service) plus hundreds of thousands more to buy.
Cons: No TV, films, games, internet or camera. 
56. If you are a game lover, which tablet is least likely to be your choice?
A. LeapPad Explorer 2. B. iPad 4th generation.
C. Microsoft Surface. D. Amazon Kindle Paperwhite
57. If you want to add something to your prepared PPT for a presentation at a meeting, which tablet is most helpful?
A. LeapPad Explorer 2. B. iPad 4th generation.
C. Microsoft Surface. D. Amazon Kindle Paper.
B
I had thus learned a second fact of great importance: this was that the planet the little prince came from was scarcely any larger than a house!
But that did not really surprise me much. I knew very well that in addition to the great planets-- such as the Earth, Jupiter, Mars, Venus-- to which we have given names, there are also hundreds of others, some of which are so small that one has a hard time seeing them through the telescope. When an astronomer discovers one of these he does not give it a name, but only a number. He might call it, for example, "Asteroid 325."
I have serious reason to believe that the planet from which the little prince came is the asteroid known as B-612. This asteroid has only once been seen through the telescope. That was by a Turkish astronomer, in 1909. On making his discovery, the astronomer had presented it to the International Astronomical Congress, in a great demonstration(论证). But he was in Turkish costume, and so nobody would believe what he said.
Grown-ups are like that...
Fortunately, however, for the reputation of Asteroid B-612, a Turkish dictator(独裁者) made a law that his subjects should change to European costume under pain of death. So in 1920 the astronomer gave his demonstration all over again, dressed with impressive style and elegance. And this time everybody accepted his report.
If I have told you these details about the asteroid, and made a note of its number for you, it is for the grown-ups and their ways. When you tell them that you have made a new friend, they never ask you any questions about essential matters. They never say to you, "What does his voice sound like? What games does he love best? Does he collect butterflies?" Instead, they demand: "How old is he? How many brothers has he? How much money does his father make?"
If you were to say to the grown-ups: "I saw a beautiful house m
