　　One day a young man was standing in the middle of the town proclaiming that he had the most beautiful heart in the whole valley. A large crowd gathered．a(chǎn)nd they all admired his heart for it was 　31　. There was not a scar in it. Suddenly, an old man appeared and said, “Why, your heart is not nearly as beautiful as 　32　.”
　　The crowd and the young man looked at the old man’s 　33　. It was full of scars, it had places 　34　 pieces had been removed and other pieces 　35　 in, but they didn’t fit quite right, and there were several 　36　 edges. In fact, in some places there were deep gaps where whole pieces were missing.
　　The young man laughed. “ 　37　 your heart with mine, mine is perfect and yours is a mess of scars.”
　　“Yes,” said the old man, “Yours 　38　 perfect but I would never trade with you. You see, every 　39　 represents a person 　40　 I have given my love. I tear out a piece of my heart and give it to them, and often they 　41　 me a piece of their heart that fits into the 　42　 place in my heart. But because the pieces aren’t exact, I have some rough edges, which I cherish, because they remind me of the love we 　43　.
　　“Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart 　44　, and the other person hasn’t returned a 　45　 of his or her heart to me. These are the empty gaps—giving love is 　46　 a chance. Although these gaps are painful, they 　47　 open, reminding me of the love I have for those people too, and I hope someday they may return and fill the space I have been waiting. So now do you see what true beauty is?’’
　　The young man walked up to the old man, 　48　 his perfect heart, and tipped a piece out. He 　49　 it to the old man.
　　The old man placed it in his heart, then took a piece from his old scarred heart and placed it in the wound in the young man’s heart. It 　50　, but not perfectly, as there were some jagged edges.
　　The young man looked at his heart, not perfect anymore but more beautiful than ever, since love from the old man’s heart flowed into his.
　　They embraced and walked away side by side.

　　Several years ago I worked in an office, which I had a locust tree growing outside the window. It had grown into a tall tree and must have been there for a long time. The tree blocked the view and made the office seem dull, unfortunately this happened to be the room assigned to me and I was depressed by it for quite some time.
　　When the first spring came, everything was green except the locust tree. Secretly, I was very happy because I had thought it had died.
　　One morning when I opened the window for fresh air, I unexpectedly smelt a familiar sweet scent floating into my office but I couldn’t name it. Suddenly, I realized it was the locust tree! The tree that I thought dead was blossoming in full glory.
　　From then on, I usually came to the office very early to see dew forming on the locust tree blossoms and every year was eager to see spring again.
　　During summer, the green leaves provided shade protecting me from the harsh sunlight, but allowing enough light in to make it pleasant. In autumn, the leaves turned into many different colors. Its beauty touched my soul. Many times I thought to take photos but never did. Then I had to leave in a hurry. Later in life it became a great regret that I had not done so.
　　Actually, many times in our lives, we think we own something, therefore we don’t cherish it. We don’t feel regretful until we lose it one day! Moreover, sometimes, we have to accept the things we don’t want and need to discover the hidden beauty to find unexpected joy!

Several years ago, my parents, my wife, my son and I ate at one of those  16  where the menu was written on a blackboard. After a wonderful dinner, the waiter set the check in the middle of the table. That was when it  17  : my father did not reach for the check.
18  continued. Finally I realized that I should pick up check! After hundreds of restaurant meals with my parents, and after a lifetime of thinking of my father as the one with dollars, it had all  19 . I picked up the check, and my view of myself  20  changed. I was an adult. I was no longer a kid.
Some people mark off their lives in years, and I measure  21  in small events. I did not become a young man at a particular age, like 16, but rather when a kid who  22  in the streets called me “Mister”. These events in my life are called “milestones”.
There have been other milestones. The policemen of my youth always seemed big, even  23 , and of course they were older than I was. Then one day they were suddenly  24 . Then the day came when I  25  that all the football players in the game I was  26  were younger than I was. With that milestone  27  was the dream that  __28__ , maybe I, too, could be a football player. Without ever having reached the hill, I was over it.
I never thought that I would  29  in front of the TV set as my father did. Now it is what I do best. I never thought that I would  30  opera, but now the combination of  31  and orchestra attract me. I never thought that I would prefer to stay home in the evenings, but now I find myself passing up parties. I feel a strong  32  for a religious belief that I never thought I would want, feel  33  my ancestors long gone, and echo my father in  34  with my son. I still lose…
One day I bought a house. One day --- what a day! I became a  35 , and not long after that I picked up the check for my own father. I thought then it was a milestone for me. One day, when I was a little older, I realized it was one for him too, another milestone.

To build a safer car, Japanese automakers are trying to replace the most accident-prone (易出事故的) part: the driver.
Inspired by statistics blaming human error for most accidents, Toyota and its competitors are designing “intelligent” cars that can almost drive themselves on the high way.
The systems are designed to reduce human tiredness and the mistakes that often result. This kind of support is what drivers need most in a country with some of the most crowded reads in the world. That is why it should not be surprising that Japan is leading the race to make cars smarter.
To provide a safer ride, Japanese automakers are turning to technologies like laser radar and machine vision to replace tired eyes and wandering minds.
An infrared radar unit fixed on the bumper is part of a now cruise (巡航) control method that Toyota introduced in August 1997. It’s now an optional feature on its Celsior luxury sedan that costs 70,000 yen (US$648).
The “adaptive” system tracks the car ahead, and slows down or speed up the car automatically to keep a safer distance in highway traffic. The same technology has also been used by some cars made by Toyota’s competitors.
Subaru, a type of its Legacy wagon, made its first appearance last September with Active Driving Assist, which besides adjusting cruising speed, sounds an alarm if the car goes out of its lane or makes a turn too fast. In the latter case, it down shifts gear even before the driver starts to brake.
An even smarter system is coming from Honda. Called Honda Intelligent Driver Support (HIDS), it “sees” the road through a tiny camera on the windshield and helps steer the car down the middle of lane. A computer picks out lines on the highway surface and touched the car’s steering wheel in the right direction. Honda got approval in March to start testing HIDS on the highway and says it will arrive in showrooms in the near future.
56. Why are Japanese automakers developing cars that can almost drive themselves on the highway?  (No more than 10 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
57.What is the main purpose for the automakers to design the system of the new cars?(within 15 wd)
