閱讀理解

　　Sometimes when we are lost in the day-to-day activities of life and work, we forget there is a part of us that wants to serve and make a difference in the world．It is also a good time to look for ways to express yourself through service to others．

　　Most people want to live a life full of meaning．If you recognize you have a true desire to serve, voluntary work in the community and a spirit of giving can lead you to an understanding of what you care about, what your natural talents are, and what your life purpose is．It can start you on the path to a new life．

　　To live(身體力行)your purpose as fully as possible, use your natural gifts when you serve others．If you are a naturally-born teacher, you could teach students who are struggling with basic reading skills．If you are good at encouraging people, you could visit people who are sick or in nursing home．

　　Many of us forget how luck we are and how much support we have．When we reach out to others, we sometimes realize how our lives have been blessed．When you are aware of all the blessing(祝福)that you have received, you can understand your true ability to make a difference．

　　Service is a spirit for living as well as a set of actions．You live your life purpose every day．It’s not just when you are volunteering at church or the local food bank．It’s every time you interact with anyone．Through your actions, your words and your smiles, you have the capability to either uplift someone or put them down．Meaningful, purposeful lives are built every moment, not just in isolated times spent volunteering．Whether it’s at work, in traffic, in the line at the grocery store, or at a concert, you have an opportunity to serve or change the world．Your efforts don’t have to be extraordinary, but your life certainly will be．

The drug store was closing for the night. Young Alfred Higgins, the shop-assistant, was ready to go home. Mr. Carr, the boss, stared at him and said: “Hold on, Alfred. Maybe you'd be good enough to take the things out of your pockets and leave them here before you go.”Alfred's face got red. After a little hesitation, he took out what he had stolen. Mr. Carr said, “Maybe I should call your mother and let her know I'm going to have to put you in prison.”

Alfred thought his mother would come rushing in, eyes burning with anger. But, to his surprise, she arrived wearing a smile. “Hello, I'm Alfred's mother. Is he in trouble?”she said. Mr. Carr was surprised, too. He had expected Alfred's mother to come in nervously, shaking with fear, asking with wet eyes for a mercy for her son. But no, she was most calm, quiet and pleasant and was making Mr. Carr feel guilty…. Soon Mr. Carr was shaking his head in agreement with what she was saying. “Of course”, he said, “I don't want to be cruel. You are right. Sometimes, a little good advice is the best thing for a boy at certain times in his life and it often takes the youths long time to get sense into their heads.”And he warmly shook Mrs. Higgins's hand.

Back home, without even looking at Alfred, she said, “You are a bad luck. It is one thing after another, always has been. Why do you stand there so stupidly? Go to bed.”In his bedroom, Alfred heard his mother in the kitchen. There was no shame in him, just pride in his mother's strength. He felt he must tell her how great she was. As he got to the kitchen, he saw his mother drinking a cup of tea. He was shocked by what he saw. His mother's face was a frightened, broken one. It was not the same cool, bright face he saw earlier in the drug store. As she lifted the tea cup, her hand shook. And some of the tea splashed on the table. Her lips moved nervously. She looked very old. He watched his mother without making a sound. The picture of his mother made him want to cry. He felt his youth coming to an end. He saw all the troubles he brought his mother in her shaking hand and the deep lines of worry in her grey face. It seemed to him that this was the first time he had ever really seen his mother.

1.The reason why Mr. Carr felt guilty was that ________.

A．he found Alfred was in fact innocent

B．he should have called a policeman in first

C．Alfred's mother appeared polite and gentle

D．he thought he was partly responsible for it

2.Which of the following is probably said by Mrs. Higgins while talking to Mr. Carr?

A．“Please, for God's sake, you know, he is just a kid.”

B．“I can't believe it! You are treating my son like that!”

C．“You know, it takes time for a youth to truly grow up.”

D．“Punishment makes sense because it teaches about the law.”

3.What does the underlined phrase "his mother's strength"(Para. 3) refer to?

A．Mrs. Higgins's calmness and communicating skills.

B．Mrs. Higgins's attitude towards parental sufferings.

C．Mrs. Higgins's love and care for her son Alfred.

D．Mrs. Higgins's greatness as a woman.

4.After the incident, young Alfred would probably ________.

A．feel ashamed of her mother

B．change his attitudes towards life

C．learn to live an independent life

D．hate Mr. Carr for hurting her mother

Balzac was good at buying things at its lowest price. One day he wanted to buy a vase in a shop window that was much more expensive than he could offer. Not being able to make the shopkeeper cut down its price very much, he left without further talking. Collecting a half dozen of his friends, he explained his wish to them and they worked a plan. The first would enter the shop and make an offer, lower than the marked price. Not getting the vase at his price, he would walk out. Shortly after another would enter and ask for a price lower than the first. In this way, each of the others would offer a price lower than the one before, and the last of his friends made a great effort to attempt to get it at the lowest price. Before long Balzac himself would return, offer more than the last two or three persons made and trust to luck. The plan worked--- Balzac got the vase at his price!
