B Magic (魔法)often forces us not to believe our own eyes or even appears to be breaking the laws of physics or nature! The word "magic" has many different meanings. When a bird appears in a hat or when someone declares that he could see into the future-both can be called magic. When a sick person suddenly becomes well or a well person (or even animal) becomes ill, magic is the cause, The British author Terry Pratchett uses magic a great deal in his popular Discworld series of books. Magic has always been used for fun. People enjoy working out in which cup the little ball is or how he know which card I was thinking of.Harry Houdini was one of the first world-famous magicians-famous for escaping from deadly situation.Recently David Copperfield,or David Blane,has become very popular for his"unbelievable abilities". such as making the Statue of Liberty disappear or rise. Magical rings and three-headed dogs may not be real, but does this mean nothing magical really exists?Can you always explain how the magician has done the card trick? Maybe it is better not explain,but to leave a little magic in our lives.Pick a card,any card...... 40. The author explains what magic is in paragraph 1 by .

David Blane. C. David Copperfield D. Terry Pratchett 42. What does the author think of magic? A. It provides people with fun. B. It changes our lives C. It explains strange things in our lives. D. It breaks the laws of physics C "Troublemaker"was what was given to my friend Peter by his teachers. They also said that he had no future and no hope! But now I suggest that anyone who said that should say “sorry”to him. Peter finished Grade Nine and then he went to study at a technical college.He became a leader of a group of bad boys,After graduation he had nothing to do ,so he just hung around by the market with his friends. It looked like nothing could change his life. It was not until the day that his father died. He left the boys and went to help his mother who sold food by the roadside. These days, he doesn't have to go around looking for cartoon books because there are always people coming to his shop to sell their old ones. He now has a monthly income of about 55,000baht(泰铢）。 He was a"troublemaker" to his teachers but he is a hero to me. If you are judged by your teachers as a"bad student", I suggest you ignore what they say. Just do your best in everything 。Don’t give up so easily. Believe me, one day you could be successful, too. 43. Why does the author think some people should say to Peter? A. They considered him hopeless B. They refused to help him C.
