版权页：   插图：      A When I was a boy, each of my holidays seemed happy. My parents usually took me by train or by car to a hotel by the sea. All day I played on the sands with strange excited children. We made houses and gardens with sand. In those days, the sun seemed much brighter and the water was always warm. Sometimes we left beach and walked in the country. There were sweets in one's pockets or good places one could buy ice creams. Each day seemed a lifetime. （54） Though I am thirty-five years old, my idea of good holiday is much the same as it was. I still like the sun and warm sand. I never wish to build any sand house or sand garden. However, I love the sea and often feel sand running through my fingers. Sometimes, I ask myself, "（55） How can I spend my holidays when I am old?" Perhaps, All I want to do then, perhaps, will be to stay in bed, reading books about children. In the books children make houses and gardens with sand and make themselves sick because of too many ice creams. Questions 51-53: Answer the following questions. （根据短文内容回答问题。） 51.

Though I am thirty-five years old, my idea of good holiday is much the same as it was. 55. How can I spend my holidays when I am old?B The idea for the book Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone came to Joanne Kathleen Rowling in 1990. It took her seven years to finish writing it. During those seven years she had a number of jobs, including one job as an English teacher in Portugal. Rowling sent the book to four publishers before one of them bought it. She was very happy to sell her book because it was her life's dream to be a published writer. Before she sold her book, Rowling was living in a small apartment with her daughter and was so poor that she could not afford heat in the winter. Harry Potter became very successful with children and adults in England. The book also really took off in the United States. After her second and third books were published, the three Harry Potter books filled the top three places on many newspapers' lists of best-sellers. Then the books were made into popular movies. Without question, Rowling's life had completely changed, in just three years. Harry Potter books have now sold more than 30 million books around the world and have been translated into more than thirty-five languages. In 1997, Rowling was earning ￡70 （about US＄110） a week. By the end of 2001, she had eamed over ￡150 million （＄250 million）, making her one of the most successful female writers of all time. Questions 56-60: Fill in the blanks using suitable words according to the passage above. Use no more than two words for each blank.
