  • 1. (2019八下·吴兴期末) 阅读下面短文,理解其大意,然后从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项

        Sixteen years ago, I learned an important life lesson in a New York City taxi. I was on my 1 to the station, and we were driving in the right lane(车道)when a black car 2 jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.

        My driver hit the brakes(刹车)hard, skidded(滑行), and at the last moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the front car.

        The driver of the other car, the man who had just nearly caused a huge accident, started 3 at us. But then here's what really 4 me. My taxi driver just simled and waved at him. He was really 5!

        "Why did you just do that?" I asked him, "This guy almost destroyed your car and could have sent 6 to the hospital!"

        This was when my taxi driver told me what I now call the "Law of Garbage Trucks(垃圾车法则)".

        "Many people 7 garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of 8, and full of disappintment," he said, "As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump(倾倒)it, and if you let them do, they'll dump it on you. 9 when someone wants to dump on you, just simle, wave, wish them well, and move on. You'll be 10 because of what you do."

        I started thinkng, how 11 do I let garbage trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and dump it on other people at work, at home, or on the street?

        I began to see garbage trucks. I see the "garbage" that people are carrying. I see them coming to dump it. And like my taxi driver, I don't feel hurt. I just 12, wave, and move on. It was on that day that I said, "I'm not going to dump anymore."

    Help Fight World Hunger

        What would you do if you wanted to help hungry people in the world but you didn't have billions of dollars? We asked some students for their ideas.

        Simon: If a friend would join me, I'd volunteer with an organization or foundation that works to fight world hunger. Maybe we could travel to another country to help people. It would be a good education about other countries for us, too.

        Gwen: I would get photos of children who don't have enough to eat. I would put the photos on a website with this question: What would you do if these chidren were yours? I would also list the names of organizations that help fight world hunger. Then I would send the link for the website to people and ask them to donate money to help these hungry children.

        Ray: I think we can also ask celebrities for help. They are famous people and usually have a lot of fans. If they can stand out and call on people to do the thing, I believe that many people will follow them. I'd write a letter to a celebrity and ask the celebrity to come and talk at our school. I'd ask all the students in our school to sign the letter. People would pay money to go to the talk, and we would use the money to help fight hunger.

        These are great ideas—but send us yours! What could you do to help hungry people?

He simply knows how to enjoy life to its fullest.

But the (difficult) thing was to be funny in all my acting. "OK. It's time to be a different me now!" I said to myself. I didn't know what to do when acting this stupid way.
