1.on 表達(dá)在星期幾用介詞on,on a Saturday dusk意為“在一個(gè)星期六的黃昏”。
2.who 此處是一個(gè)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句,先行詞是an old woman,指人,又因定語(yǔ)從句中缺少主語(yǔ),故用who。
3.Walking walk與主語(yǔ)she之間是主動(dòng)關(guān)系,所以用walk的現(xiàn)在分詞形式。
4.her 此處指“我”給她幾枚硬幣,在動(dòng)詞后用代詞的賓格形式。
5.a(chǎn)nd “hand back”這一動(dòng)作緊接著“stare at me”發(fā)生,and有“然后,接著”之意,因此用and。
6.what 空格部分引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句并在從句中作want的賓語(yǔ),故用what。
7.seriously 修飾動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用副詞,故此處用seriously。
8.to help intend to do sth.意為“打算做某事”。故用to help。
9.the emptied can特指上文提到的“我”的可樂(lè)罐,故用定冠詞the。
10.satisfaction with是介詞,其后必須跟名詞或代詞作其賓語(yǔ),故此處用satisfy的名詞形式satisfaction。
Ⅲ.閱讀理解

Anyone who has ever run a marathon knows how difficult it is to complete the distance.Now imagine running 142 of them,back to back—a feat that Minnesota resident Steven Knowlton has just completed.
Mr.Knowlton began his run on July 30th from Seattle,Washington.From there he ran his way through Oregon,Idaho and then on to the Rocky Mountains in Wyoming and Colorado.He then jogged his way through Kansas and Missouri,before continuing east and south through Kentucky,Tennessee,Mississippi,Alabama and Georgia.On Saturday,November 13th,after 100 days,3,715 miles and six pairs of sneakers,he finally reached his destination—Key Largo,F(xiàn)lorida.
While that in itself is incredible,what is even more so is the fact that he did it without taking a day of rest and with no support or back-up vehicle.Instead,he wheeled along a baby stroller(嬰兒車),filled with drinks,snacks and an extra pair of shoes.The 45-year-old man says that he ran through painful shin splits(脛部開(kāi)裂),extreme tiredness and bad weather,because if he took a break,he would lose his courage and be tempted to take many more!
Having completed over 43 marathons and 2 ultramarathons(double the distance),with his earliest one at the age of nine,Mr.Knowlton is no stranger to long-distance runs.However,this brilliant one was done for a cause—to raise funds for and awareness of Crohn's disease,something he has suffered from since he was 17.
Mr.Knowlton who is currently enjoying some well-deserved rest on the beautiful beaches of Florida,says the run will be
memorable for many reasons,not the least of which is the kindness
of strangers who offered him food,money and even shelter along the way.His biggest issue?Police officials stopped him especially when he was running across highways,because they believed he was endangering a baby in his stroller!

For years children in the industrial areas of Europe and America seldom left their smoky cities to see the beauty of the countryside.Not that the woods and fields were always far away,but they were too far from the city to permit people to make a round trip between morning and nightfall.What's more,factory workers did not have enough money to send their children on country holidays away from home.
In 1907 a young German schoolmaster had an idea which changed this state of affairs.He decided to turn his little schoolhouse into a dormitory for the summer holidays.Anyone who brought his sleeping bag and cooking equipment along could stay there for a very small amount of money.The idea was a success.A few years later the schoolhouse was far too small to hold so many young people who wanted to stay there.So,a dormitory was set up in an old castle nearby.This was the first Youth Hostel.
Today young students and workers of every country can meet in the hostels and get to know each other.Some spend a week or more in the same hostel,seeing the surrounding sights and meeting the people of the area.Other youths go on foot or by bicycle from place to place,spending a night or two in one hostel,then going to the next.
Sometimes an informal program will be organized after the meal,with dances,songs,or short talks followed by a question period.One can learn a lot about other places,just by meeting people who come from these places.For this reason,a few weeks spent “hostelling” can be just as useful a part of one's education as classes in school.
