At two o'clock a bank robber stole in. "This is a holdup," the man said rudely. He took a gun from under his jacket, pointing to George. "Hand it over!" George reached into his money-box and took all the bills from the top part-close to six thousand dollars. The robber snatched them and turned to leave. Then while everyone watched the robber, George calmly lifted the top part of the money-box, took hills from the bottom part and put them into his own pocket secretly. The door was shut and the bank robber was gone. George fainted. As soon as he was safely behind his bedroom door, George counted the money. He had eight thousand dollars. He was very happy. The next morning, while the others were examining the bank's records, George was called into Mr. Burrow's office and was introduced to Mr. Carruthers, who used to be president of the bank. "Good morning, George, I was sorry to give you a hard time yesterday, but with all the banks being robbed these days I thought it would be a good idea to prove that our little bank can be robbed, too. I retired yesterday, just to keep everyone on his toes. Now, I have put the money back in your money-box-all six thousand. " Which sentence can be used to end the story? A) George turned cold with fear. B) George turned red with anger. C) George was pleased with the end. D) George was disappointed with the end.

I often dreamed about Pisa when I was a boy .I read about the famous building called the Leaning Tower of Pisa. But when I read the word Pisa, I was thinking of pizza. I thought this tower was a place to buy pizza. It must be the best place to buy pizza in the world, I thought. Many years later finally saw the Leaning Tower . I knew then that it was Pisa and no pizza. But there was still something special about it for me. The tower got its name because it really does lean to one side. Some people want to try to fix it. They are afraid it may fall over and they don't like it leans over city. I do not think it's a good idea to try to fix it. The tower probably will not fall down. It is 600 years old. Why should anything happen to it now? And , if you ask me, I like what it looks like. To me it is a very human kind of leaning. Nothing is perfect, it seems to say. And who cares? Why do people want things to be perfect? Imperfect things may be more interesting. Let's take the tower in Pisa. Why is it so famous? There are many other older, more beautiful towers in Italy. But Pisa tower is the most famous. People come all over the world to see it. This passage is about _ A) Italian pizza B) Italy's problems C) How the leaning Tower of Pisa got its name D) Why the writer likes Pisa
