On a cold evening I was waiting for a taxi in New York. About 5 minutes later, I was picked up by a driver, and he said how terrible some people were. I knew there was a part of me that wanted to be silent, but I had to listen out of kindness.
The man told me that he had just come from JFK Airport without a customer. Over the courses of that taxi ride, what started as anger changed slowly and he mentioned that he had read an article which said that the happiest people are the ones that give, so he hoped he’d have more chance to give in his life. I was really starting to enjoy being with this man.
As we arrived at the place where I wanted to go, I paid my money by credit card. I pulled out an extra $20 and said, “Sir, since we’ve been talking about giving this whole time, I want to share that feeling with you. I’ve already paid my money, but here’s an extra little bit. You can tell the next passenger in this taxi that their ride is a gift from another.”
I thought I was pretty cool at this point, but he turned toward me, tears in his eyes, and said, “Sir, I have a better idea. You give that $20 to a homeless person around here and I will give the next passenger a free ride myself.
It was a great honor meeting that man and learning the lesson of how everyone gives and adds joy to another with their generosity.
小題1:According to the text, when the author got in the taxi, the driver was    .
A．a(chǎn)ngryB．nervousC．worriedD．regretful
小題2: The author gave the driver an extra $20 in order to    _.
A．help him to get out of troubleB．know what he was really like
C．experience the joy of givingD．learn how to get along with others.
小題3: What can be inferred from the taxi driver’s words in Paragraph 4?
A．A driver should be willing to help.B．People should understand each other.
C．The driver was deeply moved.
D．One needs to keep an optimistic attitude (樂觀態(tài)度).
小題4:What would be the best title for the text?
A．A cold evening in New YorkB．Learning from a taxi driver
C．A gift to a generous strangerD．Always being a happy person

I have recently completed my college degree. The last project was called “Smile”. The class was asked to go out to smile at three people and document their reactions（反應(yīng)）. I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway. So, I thought this would be a piece of cake.
My husband, the youngest son and I went out to McDonald. We were standing in line when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away. As I turned around I smelled a horrible body odour（氣味） and saw two poor homeless men standing behind me. As I looked at the short blue-eyed gentleman closest to me, he was “smiling”. The second man fumbled（摸索）with his hands as he stood behind his friend.
The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted. He said, “Coffee is all, Miss,” because that was all they could afford.
Then I really felt it — I embraced（擁抱）the little man with the blue eyes. That is when I noticed   all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked two more breakfast meals on and gave them to the men.
The blue-eyed gentleman looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.”
I turned in my project. My teacher said, “Can I share this?” I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class. She began to read and that is when I knew that we as human beings share this need to heal people and to be healed.
In my own way I had touched the people at McDonald’s and every soul that heard the story in the classroom. But, I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn.
小題1: The underlined part “a piece of cake” in Paragraph 1 means _______.
A．easyB．embarrassingC．movingD．comfortable
小題2:Why did people around the author in the McDonald step back?
A．Because they were very polite to the two men.
B．Because they were moved by the two men.
C．Because the two men smelt terrible.
D．Because the two men seemed unfriendly.
小題3: Why did the two men only buy coffee?
A．Because they didn’t have enough money.
B．Because they didn’t feel hungry.
C．Because they knew others would help them.
D．Because they were looked down upon.
小題4:How did the teacher think of the author’s project?
A．Hard to believe.B．Interesting to read.
C．Very puzzling.D．Very satisfying.
小題5: What did the author think she learn from the story?
A．A friend in need is a friend indeed
B．Helping others can bring pleasure to many people.
C．Nothing is difficult to a willing heart.
D．Don’t judge people according to their appearance.

As I began to feel completely sick of the cold North American winter, spring break finally arrived! What made me even more excited was that we were going to Florida to enjoy the warm weather!
Just imagine wearing T-shirts or a swimsuit under the hot Florida sun!
Before the vacation started, we had a little episode(插曲) at the airport. The alarm sounded when my host mom and me were walking through the security check. We were taken away to have further checks, but when they finally told us that we could go, we felt relieved and amused. It was just because of the decorations(裝飾品) on my pants and the tinfoil(錫紙) around my host mom’s chewing gum! —Just as a reminder, no overly fashionable pants or tinfoil on a plane!
Of course, I had a lot of first experiences during this special vacation. Since eight of us were living in a house, we had to share bedrooms, I, fortunately or unfortunately, had to share a room with my 4-year-old host sister. She is tiny compared to me, but she took up about two thirds of the bed. Moreover, because I was not used to sleeping in the same room with others, I was afraid of waking her up and hardly slept at all.
Luckily, except for that, everything went really well. My host family were really warm hearted, and they wanted me to try everything new. With their “persuasion”, I was “forced” to go kayaking(劃皮艇), which turned out to be really fun. We went through some canals and I saw manatees(海牛) and dolphins with my own eyes for the very first time!
When we finally landed in Wisconsin again, everyone looked tanned and full of energy!
小題1: What happened to the author and her host mom at the airport?
A．They lost their passports.
B．Their luggage was overweight.
C．They quarreled with the other passengers.
D．The decorations and tinfoil brought them trouble.
小題2: What does the underlined word “they” in Para 3 most probably refer to?
A．The author and her host family people.
B．People in charge of security at the airport.
C．People sharing the same house with the author.
D．The author’s host mom and the host sister.
小題3: We can learn from the first paragraph that the author   .
A．hated going to FloridaB．had no sense of weather
C．disliked the cold winterD．didn’t like living in North America
小題4:From the passage, we can infer that   .
A．the author thought little of her host family
B．the author didn’t like her 4-year-old host sister
C．the security check at the airport was very strict
D．the author didn’t get along well with her host family

  How to make friends with people from a different culture? The rules are as follows:
Appreciate the person
Most Americans like to be recognized as individuals as someone special with unique, personalities. Therefore never say,“you are from America so I want to be your friend.” Also don’t imply that the reason why you approached them is that you wanted someone to practice your English with . That turns people off. Instead try saying,”“you seem like a real nice and interesting person and I would like to get to know you better .’ This way , they are much more inclined to be friendly because you see them as a three dimensional person and appreciate them for who they are in the inside . And by doing so , you not only learn about Americans and practice your English , but also gain a real friend in the process
Quit Calling Us Foreigners.
Please avoid calling a foreigner especially in his face . The word makes people feel like an outsider , and even unwelcome , suggesting separation and insurmountable difference , widening an already existing gap in the situation. When Americans travel , they rarely say,“I’m foreign to your place .” They tend to say ,”I’m new in town . I’m new here.” The reason is because new and unfamiliar things can become old and familiar. But can foreign things become native? You catch my drift.
Just Do It .
Some students like to be told about American culture but are less interested in spending the time and effort to actually experience it .As Americans always say ,“get your hands dirty.” You should have first hands on experience, or you will never really know anything.
Find that Common Language.
Now I just must stress the importance of finding a common language. By that I don’t mean English, Chinese , German ,French,etc. I mean finding something you have in common with another person on a spiritual and philosophical level: likes , dislikes, worldviews, ways of thinking and attitudes toward life. And to start , you must first enhance your knowledge of the particular culture from which your potential
小題1: The underlined sentence“get your hands dirty” means     .
A get involved   B talk about American culture    C star with dirty work   D Don’t wash your hands too often
小題2: Americans prefer to make friends with those who    .
A  avoid talking about their homeland     B  recognize their personalities
C  obey rules of communicating with friends   D  needn’t practice English while playing together
小題3:According to the passage , which of the following is friendly?
A   I am longing to make friends with an American.
B   This is my friend Tom , who is a foreigner.
C   There must be a gap between us in many things.
D   You ‘ve  got a great personality
小題4:  In the last paragraph , the author suggests we should   
A  Learn at least one foreign language well
Bfind common interests or opinions with our potential new friend
C make sure we can understand each other
D ask where our potential new friends come from

My wife passed away a few years ago, and I went through the worst time in my life. I even wanted to kill myself. Just for my kids, I had to continue to live and work as a small town doctor at my medical clinic in Hawaii. My kids had gone to live on the mainland, and I was alone. Then they asked me to have a family trip.
On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. Seeing it falling down, I said to my kids：“ I'm going to Afghanistan.”And a few weeks later, International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care. In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs ，we were eventually serving 27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule.Tired and nervous, I gradually had a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose, and my depression went away.
In the years to follow, I went to Indonesia after the tsunami (海嘯), Pakistan after the earthquakes, Sudan after the civil war, and Iraq after more and more bombs. Each time after disasters one after another, hundreds of people were killed, wounded and many more had to flee. We once set up movable clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees,_and it was supposed to hold 13,000 originally. Flu broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire. Water and food were also serious problems. “Adventure or not？”I often asked myself.
When my wife passed away, I thought my life was gone. But in reality, it was just getting started. At the end of her life, she went unconscious. I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit and the exciting adventures we would have.
I thought about the moment many times during my“adventures”. I didn't know how predictive those words would be，but I knew that she was still with me.
小題1:Where has the doctor been in the past few years?
A．Some countries where he could set up clinics.

When my first wartime Christmas came, I was in basic training in New Jersey and not sure if I would make it home for the holiday. Only on the afternoon of December 23 was the list of men who would have the three-day holiday posted. I was one of the lucky soldiers. It was Christmas Eve when I arrived home, and a little snow had fallen. Mother opened the front door. I could see beyond her, into the corner of the living room where the tree had always stood. There were lights, colors, and ornaments (飾品) shining against the green of a pine.
"Where did it come from?" I asked.
"I asked the Gates boy to cut it," my mother said. "I wouldn't have had one just for myself, but when in great need... such a rush! He just brought it in this afternoon."
The pine reached to the proper height, almost to the ceiling, and the Tree Top Crystal（水晶）Star was in its place. A few green branches reached out a little awkwardly（難看）at the side, I thought, and there was a bit of bare trunk showing in the middle. But the tree filled the room with warm light and the whole house with the pleasant smell of Christmas.
"It's not like the one you used to find," my mother went on. "Yours were always in good shape. I suppose the Gates boy didn't know where to look for a better one. But I couldn't be fussy(挑剔的)."
"Don't worry," I told her. "It's perfect."
It wasn't, of course, but at the moment I realized something for the first time: All Christmas trees are perfect.
1. What did his mother's Christmas tree look like?    

2. From the passage we can infer (推斷) that ________ .
A. all the soldiers had the three-day holiday      
B. the writer could not go home for Christmas
C. the writer spent his first Christmas during the war
D. not all the soldiers went home for Christmas during the war
3. From the passage, we can conclude that ________ .
A. his mother didn't like Christmas trees  
B. the writer didn't like the tree cut by someone else
C. the writer used to cut very beautiful Christmas trees
D. his mother didn't want to have a Christmas tree during wartime
4. The best title for this passage would be ________ .
A. The Perfect Christmas Tree              
B. How to Choose a Christmas Tree

I am a person who does not like to wait．I don' t like lines, being put on hold when making a phone call, arriving at an appointment to find that my companion will be delayed and of course, I don * t like waiting rooms．
However, I realize that my agony(痛苦） will not be good for me, as an increasingly, crowded world can only mean one thing—more waiting．
Owing to this, I have taken a measure and decided to turn my disappointment to productive ends．In short, I am looking for what I call "waiting in line books"．
These are books that contain material designed for being read in shortened words, so there is no extended story line to lose track of．Another requirement is that they be small enough to slip neatly into my back pocket．
The other day I went to the supermarket．Convinced that the rain would keep most people away, I was surprised to see that the place was crowded with shoppers．Every checkout was open—and jammed! But I could take out my pocket book and go to work．
The more the world demands that I wait, the more I learn from my waiting library．Look at these titles: One Hundred Things Every American Should Know; The Poetry of Robert Frost; Living Thoughts of Leading Thinkers; Still More Toasts．I have learned interesting and enriching things and much knowledge from these books．
On a recent visit to the general store, I placed my order at the counter along with six or seven other people．The one female employee seemed to have her hands full as she rushed about．"Just be patient," she said to me．
No problem．I quietly opened my dictionary of prose （散文） and poetical quotations． Perhaps the other customers regarded me as a bookish, lonely soul．But little did they realize that I was enjoying the company of Shakespeare, Thoreau, Homer and Ben Johnson．
小題1:According to the passage, the world ______．
A．needs to produce many materials to useB．is becoming more and more crowded
C．loses tracks of story line increasinglyD．is crowded with shoppers everywhere
小題2:How did the author overcome his agony of waiting?
A．By reading books designed to be read in shortened words．
B．By arriving early for an appointment．
C．By taking measures to produce some books for readers．
D．By keeping most people away from the supermarket for some reasons．
小題3:Which of the following can't be carried in the author's pocket?
A．One Hundred Things Every American Should Know
B．The Poetry of Robert Frost
C．Living Thoughts of Leading Thinkers
D．Homer and Ben Johnson
小題4:Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．The author succeeded in changing his agony into fun．
B．The author was a bookish and lonely soul.
C．Six or seven employees in the store were busy in rushing about．
D．There were fewer customers in the supermarket on rainy days．
