It was a cold winter day. A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth. “I’m paying fo

r myself, and for the six cars behind me,” she said with a smile, handing over seven tickets. One after another, the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed, “Some lady up ahead already paid your fare.”

It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friend’s refrigerator: “Practice random (随意的) kindness and senseless acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed (使某人印象深刻) her so much that she copied it down.

Judy Foreman saw the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home. When it stayed on her mind for days, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why she’d taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students, one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter. Alice put it in the newspaper, saying that though she liked it, she didn’t know where it came from or what it really meant.

Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.

“Here’s the idea,” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence (暴力) can build on itself.”

The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been encouraged to do for someone else later. Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours!

Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?

A.She had seven tickets.

B.She hoped to please others.

C.She wanted to show kindness.

D.She knew the car drivers well.

Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she ___ .A.thought it was beautifully written

B.wanted to know what it really meant

C.decided to write it on a warehouse wall

D.wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom

Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?A.Judy Foreman.

B.Natalie Smith

C.Alice Johnson.

D.Anne Herbert

What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.People should practice random kindness to those in need

B.People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.

C.People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet.

D.People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.

Modem ideas are beginning to influence the Eskimos, but not enough to make much difference
to their way of life. They still spend the winter in igloos, the round huts that are built of snow frozen hard. They still travel on sleds that are pulled by dogs. The winter is too cold for hunting, so during that season they live on the stores of seal meat that they have killed in the summer. But seal meat is not the only kind of food that they eat. In summer they hunt bears and reindeer, a type of deer With long branching horns that is used for its milk, meat and skin. They also fish all the year round. The Eskimos who are hunters in summer are fishermen in winter. In winter they make holes in the ice and catch their fish through the holes that they have made. The Eskimos are adaptable. That is why they are able to live in Arctic regions.

Which is the main topic of this passage?

A.Modem ideas are beginning to influence the Eskimos.

B.Why are the Eskimos able to live in Arctic regions?

C.The Eskimos are adaptable.

D.Eskimos' way of life has not changed very much.

根据以下内容回答题:Man has invented ways to keep walqTl,but how do animals defend themselv
es?They can not reason in the sense that a man can,but nature has taken care of the animal kingdom by providing animals with special instincts.One of these instincts is known as hibernation(冬眠). “Sleeping like a dormouse”is not only a common saying but is a reality.When winter comes,the dormouse and other hibernating animals have reached a well-nourished state.They eat very well in warmer days laying downy fat in the tissues of their bodies and during hiberna- tion this keeps them alive.Safe in their nests,or burrows,they sleep soundly until the warmth of spring arrives. Bats,tortoises,snakes,frogs,even insects like butterflies,hibernate more or less eom-pletely.Some,like the squirrels,sleep during coldest weather but are roused by a waYnl spells.During hibernation,the temperature of an animal’S body drops drastically.Breathing and heart.beats almost cease. Another instinctive method of avoiding intense cold is to escape by means of migration.Wild swans,seagulls,swallows and cuckoos are a few of the very many kinds of birds which fly thousands of miles,twice a year,to avoid cold.Many animals,especially those of the Arctic regions,have summer and winter quarters.The Arctic deer of North America;as well as the reindeer of Europe,move southward towards the forests when winter approaches.They return to the northern area when the warmth of spring begins to be sensed. There are animals which do not attempt to leave at the first sign of winter cold.Their in—stinctive means of defence is to dig out a deep burrow,made soft and waYin by padding out with straw,1eaves,moss and fur.In it they have a“secret place”containing food which they hope will last the winter through!Animals which faU into this clhss include the Arctic fox,the rabbit ana the ermine,and the little field-mice.

How does the dormouse defend itself against cold in winter?

A.It moves about to keep warlTl.

B.It grows thicker fur.

C.It sleeps continuously.

D.It goes to warmer areas.

C A woman:heads into apopular New York City coffee shop on a cold: winter rooming. Just ah

C

A woman:heads into apopular New York City coffee shop on a cold: winter rooming. Just ahead of her, a man drops a few papers. The woman pauses to help gather them. A clerk ata busy store thanks a customer who has just bought something. "Enjoy" the young woman says, smiling widely. "Have a nice day." She sounds like she really means it. These arethe common situations we may see every: day.

However, in her best-selling book Talk to the Hand, Lynne Truss argues that common good manners such as saying "Excuse me" almost no longer exist. There are certainly plenty who would agree with her. According to one recent study, 70 percent of the U.S. adults (成A.)said people are ruder now than they were 20 years ago.

Is it really true? We decided to find out if good manners are really hard to see. In this politeness study, reporters were sent to many cities in the world. They performed three experiments: "door tests" (would anyone hold the door open for them?); "paper drops" (who would help them gather a pile of "accidentally" dropped papers?); and "service tests" (which salesclerks would thank them for a purchase [购物]?)

In New York, 60 tests (20 of each type)were done. Along the way, the reporters met all types of people: men and women of different races, ages, professions (职业), and income levels. And guess what? In the end, four out of every five :people they met passed their: politeness test making New York the most polite city in the study.

44, What does Lynne Truss argue in Talk to the Hand?.

A. People are not as polite as they used to.

B. "Excuse me" is not welcome nowadays.

C. Of all the adults in the US 70% are rude,

D. People don't care about manners any more.
