A
Twenty years ago,I drove a taxi for a living and sometimes I had to work at night.
One late night,I got a telephone call from a neighborhood. When I arrived there at 2:30 a. m.,the only building was dark except for a single light in the first floor window. So I walked up and knocked at the door.
“Just a minute ,” answered a weak voice. After a long time,the door opened and a small woman stood in front of me. Next to her was a small suitcase.
Quickly I took her suitcase to the car and then returned to hold her. She kept thanking me.
When we got in the car,she asked, “Can you drive me through downtown (市中心) ?”
“But it's too late now ,” I replied.
I don t; mind ,” she said slowly. “I'm in no hurry.The doctor says I don't have much time left...”
I quietly turned off the meter. For the next two hours,we drove through the city and passed the building where she had once worked,the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived,and some other special places. As the sun was rising,we stopped in front of a low building where two nurses were waiting.
“How much do I have to pay?” she asked “Nothing ,” I replied.
She looked surprised. “You gave a dying woman a little moment of joy”,she said. “Thank you."
Sometimes people may not remember exactly what you did or said. However,theyll always remember how you made them feel.

3. A詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)短文第九段、第十段的內(nèi)容可知,這位善良的司機(jī)沒有要這位即將去世的婦女的錢可推知,當(dāng)她上車時(shí),這 位司機(jī)悄悄地關(guān)閉了計(jì)費(fèi)器。故“meter”意為“計(jì)費(fèi)器”。

Dear Mr. President,
I am doing a project at school about animals in danger these days. I think the situation all over the w 1 is really bad. I am writing to you to s 2 what China should do to help protect animals.
I feel so s 3 for the giant panda It's one of the most p 4 animals in the world and a real symbol of China We learned that pandas m 5 live on bamboo,and that a panda can e 6 half its body weight of bamboo in 24 hours!That's a lot of bamboo. I think we should try to do m 7 to stop cutting down their forests. Pandas are a 8 rare animals and it would be so sad if they became extinct forever.
If we protect these b 9 animals in China,more people may wish to visit China to see them. They could be an important tourist attraction.
I hope you will e 10 more people to think about such an important subject.
Sincerely yours,
Huang Jing
