Many visitors finds the fast pace at which American people move very troubling. One's first impression is likely to be that everyone is in a rush. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going and are very impatient if they are delayed even for a short moment.
At first, this may seem unfriendly to you. People will push past you as they walk along the street. You will miss smiles, brief conversations with people as you shop or dine away from home. Do not think that because Americans are in such a hurry they are unfriendly. Often, life is much slower outside the big cities, as is true in other countries as well.
Americans who live in cities often think that everyone is equally in a hurry to get things done; just as city people do in Tokyo, Singapore or Paris, for example. But When they discover that you are a stranger, most Americans become quite kindly and will take great care to help you. If you need help and say, "I am a stranger here. Can you help me?' Most people will stop, smile at you, and help you find you way or answer your questions. Occasionally, you may find someone too busy or perhaps too rushed to give you help. If this happens, do not be discouraged (气馁); just ask someone else. Most Americans enjoy helping a stranger.
Many people who first visit the United States will find that().
A.America is a highly developed country
B.Americans are impatient and unfriendly people
C.the fast pace in American life often causes much trouble

I was parking at a hiking road when a man in the car next to mine looked out and started to ask me for help. “No ___41____ .” I told him, as I was willing to help anyone in ___42___ . It turned out that his battery was ___43___ and no one would help jump to start his car!
I ___44___ him if he had cables (缆绳), which he did, and in less than five ___45___ I gave him a jump start and his car ___46___ at the drop of a hat. He thanked me and asked “How much do I ___47___ you” and I looked at him in 48 and said “Not a thing!”
He said “You won’ t believe it ___49___ I’ve been sitting here for so long and I asked at least three people to ___50___ me and no one would do it”. That made me really ___51___ . I was thinking that perhaps because of how he ___52___ , his background, or whatever, ___53___ might think he was going to ask them for ___54___ or something and just automatically said “no” without even ___55___ that they could help him so ___56___ . He also told me that one man ___57___ him “My battery is old so it can’ t help you”.
I was ___58___ that the battery is like the love in our hearts. We get ___59___ more if we give it away to others! And it doesn’t ___60___ our hearts to give. I’m happy that I charged his battery and he charged my “battery” with love. I got much more than he offered to me.

Mr. Ingram liked the job I did and ended up hiring me to dig potatoes. I even helped when a baby cow was being born.
One day he found an old truck that was stuck in the soft, sandy soil of the melon (瓜) field. It was full of melons that someone had tried to steal before their truck got stuck.
Mr. Ingram explained that the truck's owner would be returning soon, and he wanted me to watch and learn. It wasn't long before a man from a nearby village, who had a terrible reputation (名声) for fighting and stealing, showed up with his two full-grown sons. They looked very angry.
Calmly Mr. Ingram said, "Well, I see you want to buy some watermelons."
There was a long silence before the man answered," Yeah, I guess so. What are you getting for them?"
"Twenty-five cents each."
"Well, I guess that would be fair enough if you help me get my truck out of here."
It turned out to be our biggest sale of the summer, and an unpleasant, perhaps unfortunate, incident had been prevented. After they left, Mr. Ingram smiled and said to me," Son, if you don't for give (原谅) your enemies, you're going to run out of friends. "
Mr. Ingram died a few years later, but I have never forgotten him or what he taught me on my first job.
Which of the following best explains "ended up" as is used in the passage?
A.enjoyed
B.finished
C.got into
D.went on
