On December 25th, Las Vegas cab driver Gerardo Gamboa thought someone left a bag of
chocolates in the back seat of his vehicle, but it turned out to be $300,000 in cold hard cash.
Now, Gamboa is winning honors for honesty after turning in the money he found Monday. The money was returned to an unidentified poker player. Yellow Checker Star Transportation named Gamboa its driver of the year and rewarded him with $1.000 and a dinner for two at a restaurant.
Gamboa told the Las Vegas Review-Journal he had another passenger by the time he began
wondering what kind of chocolates were in the brown paper bag. He looked inside at a traffic light.
“I told my passenger, 'You are my witness on this,"' the 13-year taxi driver told the Las Vegas
Sun, "and then I immediately called my dispatcher(调度员)."
Gamboa took the six bundles of $100 bills to the company's main office, where Las Vegas police and casino(赌场) officials linked it to the poker player.
Gamboa said the man gave him a $5 tip after a trip from the Cosmopolitan resort to the Palms
Place tower, and Gamboa then drove to the Bellagio resort, where a doorman helping a passenger into
the car noticed the bag.
It took several hours to confirm the identity of the owner and return the cash. He took Gamboa's
information, but didn't immediately leave a reward. "If he doesn't give me anything, that's OK,"

A pensioner（领取养老金者） who took out a newspaper advertisement to avoid spending Christmas alone for the 10th year continuously enjoyed the occasion in the company of a couple who read about his situation.
James Gray, 85, who was born in Ireland but lives in south London, had wanted to set up a pensioners' group so he would not be left by himself, but the retired housekeeper received only one response - from a woman who later changed her plans.
But Christmas 2021 saw him enjoy the celebrations with John and Marian Cunningham, an Irish couple living in north London. Thanks to them, James was spared a repeat of last year's lonely dinner of smoked salmon and prawns before turning to his TV for company.
"To me this is like a Christmas miracle come true," said James.“I thought I was going to be by myself yet again this year because I didn't think anyone would be so touched by my story to put themselves out like this. But these people are good Samaritans (助人为乐者) for giving up their Christmas to be with someone like me."
Mr and Mrs Cunningham were among thousands of people around the world who were touched by James's story. Since he took out his ad in The Irish Post, the newspaper has received l,700 cards, including some from Australia, Japan, Chile, Hawaii and South Africa.
The party of three enjoyed a free turkey dinner at the Holiday Inn in Sutton, south London.
Mrs Cunningham said she was inspired to help by James's "bravery" in taking out an ad and refused the "good Samaritan" label. Instead, the 52-year-old councillor said James was helping her and John to deal with what is normally a difficult time of year.
She said: "We have not got any children and I find Christmas quite lonely myself because I had
miscarriages (流产) in the past."
46. For what purpose did James Gray take out an ad in a newspaper?
A. To ask for company on Christmas day. B. To make friends with different people

47. It can be inferred from the passage that James Gray____.

C. Nervous and excited. D. Annoyed and uncomfortable
49. We can learn from Paragraph 5 that____.

Many of us enjoy doing it: you turn on the camera on your mobile phone and hold it at a high angle. making your eyes look bigger and your cheekbones more defined. You turn to your best side and click.
There it is - your selfie.
Over the past year, "selfie" has become a well-known term across the globe. This August the Oxford dictionary added the word to their online dictionary and define{l it as: "A photograph that one has taken of oneself,typically with a smartphone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website."
Today it's not difficult to find social networking pages full of photos people have taken of themselves and their friends. And selfie culture has become especially relevant for young people. As many as 91 percent of teenagers have posted photos of themselves online, according to a recent survey by the US Pew Research Center.
So what are the reasons for the rise of selfie culture?
"The craziness about the selfie celebrates regular people," Pamela Rutledge, a professor at the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology, told Vogue magazine. "There are many more photographs available now of real people than models."
Posting selfies also allows you to control your image online. "I like having the power to choose how I look, even if I'm making a funny face:' Samantha Barks, 19, a high school student in the US, told Vogue.
In addition to self-expression and documentation (记录), selfies "allow for a close friendship for long-distance friends, because you can see each other's faces every day", wrote Casey Miller at The Huffington Post.
But US psychologist Jill Weber is concerned that selfies might lead to social problems. "There's a danger that your self-esteem (自尊心) may start to be tied to the comments and '1ikes' you get when you post a selfie, and they aren't based on who you are - they're based on what you look like," Weber told Vogue. "When you get nothing or a negative response, your confidence can decrease."
51. Why does the writer mention the fact that "selfie" was added to an online dictionary?
A. To inform readers where to find the meaning of the word.
B. To recommend the dictionary to readers.
C. To show that the online dictionary is widely used.
D. To indicate that the word has become very popular.
52. According to the passage, "selfie" mainly involves
A. young people B.models C. students D. celebrities
53. How many reasons are mentioned for the rise of selfie?
A.2. B.3. C.4. D.5.
54, Many people post photos of themselves online to
A. make fun of themselves B. become powerful
C. beautify themselves D. choose how they look
55. In Jill Weber's opinion, selfies may cause one to
A. be cheated B.feel discouraged
C. lose money D．succeed more easily
