My wife and I bought a secondhand car for our tour. During our two months on the road, Lucy and I had a really  36  experience with a good, honest garage and some helpful  37 .

We were driving west on Highway 101 when our "check engine" light came on. We limped of (拐入) a (n )  38  into Las Cruces. We had a real car  39 . Lucy pulled the car into a local garage. By this time the car was  40  so badly that it was shaking all over. This was the  41  _ time to arrive at a garage--late Friday afternoon. Service adviser Olivia was busy  42  paper work and customers as we explained our problems.   43  there were already “ten cars behind”,  he told us to  44   the car into the garage.

Evelyn, who we later  45  was one of the top motor technicians, took  46  of our car repairing. He and Olivia and some other repairmen stayed several hours after closing,  47_     the car.

Early the next morning (the shop was  48  closed on Saturdays) , Evelyn finally located the problem and fixed it easily within only  49  .

Later Olivia pointed out to us that it was our  50  that helped. " You didn't come into the place demanding this or that. You showed an  51  of our problems on a busy Friday afternoon. Customer's attitude  52  a lot.  He was right in some way, customers should show politeness and understanding to people who  53   them. Even if people were extremely busy, they found way to  54  try and help when they are met with politeness.

The pleasant experience I had shows that  55  for other people can always help.

My neighbor Peter Gate’s life was shadowed for years by the memory of his part in an outdoor adventure that resulted in the death of one of his classmates．He and his wife 21 after six years of marriage．Then the news about Peter changed．His wife Betty came back; he 22 a fine position in a company．

One day he told me what had changed his 23 : I used to think, ‘Nothing can undo what I have done.’ The thought of my guilt(罪惡感) would 24 me in the middle of a smile or a handshake．It put a wall between my wife and me．Then I had an 25 visit from the person I 26 most to see —the 27 of the college classmate who died．“Years ago”, she said, “I found it in my heart, through prayer(祈禱), to 28 you．Betty forgave you．So did your friends and employers.” She 29, and then said 30, “You are the one person who hasn’t forgiven Peter Gate．Who do you think you are to 31 the people of this town and God ？”  “I 32 her eyes and found there a kind of permission to be the person I might have been _33__her son had lived．For the first time in my adult life I felt 34 to love and be loved.”

So, you see, it is only through forgiveness of our 35 that we gain the freedom to learn from experience．But forgiving our shortcomings doesn't mean 36   that they exist．37 , it means 38 them honestly, realistically．39 you forgive, you cannot love．And without 40, life has no meaning．Forgiveness is a good quality．

I opened the door．There he stood．“I came back to apologize,” he said in a low voice．“I am ashamed of myself．The Brooklyn Navy Yard where I've worked for ten years is closing．Today I got laid off．I' m not myself．I hope you’ ll accept my apology．”

The CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs’ story about death
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “If you live each day as if it were your last, someday you’ ll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself, “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?”
Remembering that I’ ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ ve ever encountered（遇到）to help me make the big choice in life.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that was incurable, and that I would live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is my doctors’code for preparing yourself to die.
I lived with that diagnosis all day. I was completely in despair. Later that evening, I had another biopsy（活組織檢查）and my wife told me that tumor turned to be curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I’ m fine now.
This was the closest I’ ve been to facing death. To tell the truth, no one wants to die. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. It clears out the old to make room for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.
Your time is so limited that you shouldn’ t waste it repeating someone else’ s life. Don’ t be trapped by dogma（教條）—which is living with the results of other people’ s thinking. Don’ t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart. It somehow already knows what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
【小題1】The doctor advised the author to go home and get his affairs in order because_________.

A．he had to rest at home
B．his disease was not serious at all
C．his disease couldn’ t be cured
D．he had to wait for the result of the test
【小題2】How did the author feel after the diagnosis?
A．AngryB．ExcitedC．OptimisticD．Hopeless
【小題3】What does the author think of death?
A．He thinks it is nothing to be scared of.
B．He thinks it is not the end of life.
C．He thinks it is impossible to avoid.
D．He thinks it is the beginning of a new life
【小題4】In the author’ s opinion, we should ____________.
A．follow others’ advice
B．take no notice of diseases
C．take exercise and keep healthy
D．have the courage to follow our heart

 One hot night last July, when our new baby wouldn’t or couldn’t sleep, I tried everything I could think of: a warm bottle, songs gentle rocking. Nothing would settle him. Guessing that I had a long night ahead of me, I brought a portable TV into his room, figuring that watching the late movie was as good a way as any to kill of the hours till dawn. To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right down, and his little eyes focused brightly on the tube. Not to waste an opportunity for sleep, I then tiptoed out of the room, leaving him to watch the actors celebrate John Bellushi's forty-fifth birthday.

My wife and I heard none of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room, I found him still watching TV himself.

I found in my baby's behavior a symbol of the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools. We find that our students don't read and they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have reached a conclusion: “Let them watch it!” If television is that much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight about it? Let them watch it all they want!

1.Why did the author bring a TV set into his son's room?

A. To make his son keep quiet.    　　   B. To spend the night by watching TV programs.

C. In order not to let his son feel lonely.  　D. To make his son go to sleep as soon as possible.

2.The baby's reaction to the TV program was _______ for the writer.  

A. unexpected                       B. encouraging              C. exciting                     D. calm

3.From this passage we know that the author is probably           .

A. a doctor                               B. a reporter                  C. an editor                    D. a teacher

4.According to the passage, which is true of the school children?

A. They prefer reading to watching TV.    　　 

B. They like watching TV after school.

C. They would rather watch TV than read books.

D. They like their teachers who teach them reading.
