I didn’t think I had a passion(激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show. It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.
That day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye(吸引我的世界). It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫襤褸). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I had seen many like him before.
But in some ways he was different. This man was not sitting down with a sad expression(表情). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍貴)thing he had.
“Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought(盡管) he’s homeless?” I asked.
“He bought it,” she replied. I was still unable to understand.
“But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He wasted it on something he doesn’t need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness, too.”
The man must care too much about music to buy a radio instead of food clothes. I soon realized(意識到)that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to.
Since then I’ve never gone a day without thinking of what’s truly important. A home, a meal, clothes—these things are only part of the picture. What’s often forgotten is that we all need a pleasure, a light in a dark day. We all need a passion.
小題1:How would Sarah spend her days long ago?
A.She watched TV all day.
B.She used to read a lot.
C.She did nothing but thinking.

小題2:Who caught Sarah’s eye when her mum stopped the car at a red light?
A.A man dressed in rags.
B.A man dressed in new clothes.
C.A man sitting down with a sad expression.
D.A man singing happily to the music.
小題3: Why was the man different?
A.He wore new clothes.
B.He was sitting with a sad expression.
C.He was homeless.
D.He lived an active life though he was very poor.
小題4:What did Sarah do after she understood the fact?
A.She thought all day without doing anything.
B.She bought a radio just like the man’s.
C.She had a passion with everything from then on.
D.She always danced to the music on the radio.
小題5: What can we learn from the passage?
A.Sometimes food and clothes are the most important things in our life.
B.Happiness is the key to life and it is what we are looking forward to.
C.Music is more important than food or clothes.
D.Money is the most important thing for a person.
