Just as I came back home. I heard a sound coming from the bedroom upstairs—it was from my favourite violin.

“Thief (小偷)!”

I rushed upstairs and saw a boy in dirty clothes pulling my violin down. At first sight, I found a new pair of shoes missing. It seemed he was surely a thief.

However, when I saw his eyes full of fear, my anger disappeared. I smiled and asked, “Are you Mr. Ram’s student Rubens? I’m his butler(男管家). I’ve heard Mr. Ram say his student will come. It must be you.”

“Has my teacher gone out ?” the boy said, “I think I’d better visit him again in a while/”

I nodded and asked him, “Do you like playing the violin?”

“Yes, but I’m too poor to afford one.” the boy replied.

“Then, I’ll give you this violin.” The boy looked at me surprisingly, but he picked up the violin. While going out of the room, he suddenly saw a huge photo of me playing the violin at the Grand Theatre of Sydney on the wall. His face turned pale. He stood there for a moment and ran out. He must have understood what had happened because no master(主人)would put up the butler’s photo on the wall of his living room.

A few years later, at a music competition in Melbourne, I was invited to be the judge (评委). Finally, a violin player called Merritt won the first prize.

After the prize-giving, Merritt ran to me holding a violin box, his face red, and asked, “Mr. Brian, do you still know me? You gave me the violin, which I have treasured ever since! Today, I want to say sorry and give back this violin to you without regret…”

He was just the “Mr. Ram’s student”!

It is believed in some ways that the daughter is father’s lover. But my experience has taught me in a different way. For a long time, my father has been a very vague figure(模糊的形象)to me. He was a man of few words, tall but slim and nothing else.

When I was in primary school, my father was never there to pick me up, and he never came to any of my parent-teacher meetings. He was always busy doing projects. I remember when I was in middle school and my head was badly hurt in a PE class. During my operation, my father was nowhere to be found. This hurt me most. At that moment, I considered my father as a cold-blooded man who did not care about me at all.

But things seemed different at my high school graduation ceremony, where I was chosen to represent my class and give a speech. My father, once again, told me he had a business trip in a place outside the city and would be unable to show up(露面). “Don’t come. I will be very nervous if I see you,” I told him.

I remember my speech went smoothly. After the ceremony was over and I was about to leave. I suddenly noticed a familiar(熟悉的)looking man sitting in a corner of the hall. It was my father! I was so surprised that I rushed to him with tears(眼泪)running down my face. “Well done,” he said. His eyes were also filled with tears.

Later, I found out that my father had managed to finish his work by staying up late, and he drove for eight hours to get back. He had been sitting in the corner because he didn’t want me to see him. My father remembered every word in my speech.

For much of my life, I described my father was a cold-blooded man who only cared about his work. But when I thought deeply about this, it was obviously(明显地)not true. At my graduation ceremony. I could feel my father’s deep love. The fact is that seeing is not believing, and seeing may not be the fact if we don’t perceive(感知)the world with our hearts and minds. There’s no doubt that life doesn’t lack(缺少)love, but sometimes our eyes have trouble seeing it.

1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The writer’s father was in the hospital during her operation.

B. The writer’s father attended her high school graduation ceremony.

C. The writer’s father sometimes picked her up when she was in primary school

A. That my father was always doing projects.

B. That my father was a cold-blooded man.

C. That my father sat in the corner of the hall.

One day I got in a taxi, and we left for the airport. We were driving in the right lane(车道)when, suddenly, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stopped his car at once. The tire(轮胎) made a very loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the other car.

I was frightened. But then I couldn’t believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head and started yelling at us. I couldn’t believe it! But my taxi driver just smiled at the guy. So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost sent us to hospital.”

This is when my taxi driver taught my what I now call, “The Law of the Rubbush Truck(垃圾车法则).” He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around full of rubbish, full of anger and full of bad feelings. As their rubbish piles up, they look for a place to throw it away and sometimes they’ll throw it at you. Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take their rubbish and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.

Successful people never let rubbish trucks change their moods. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love those who love you and pray(祈祷)for those who don’t.

A. The writer went to the airport by taxi that day.

2.The underlined word yelling in the second paragraph means in Chinese.

A. 道歉 B. 傻笑 C. 吼叫 D. 告别

3.Why did the guy get angry so easily?

A. Because he was in a bad mood.

B. Because his car was full of rubbish.

C. Because he was badly hurt by the taxi.

D. Because the taxi driver didn’t say sorry to him.

4.From the passage, we can tell that the taxi driver is _______.

A. silly and dishonest B. wise and friendly

C. helpful but nervous D. modest but impatient

5.What does the passage mainly tell us?

A. Fight with people like rubbish trucks.
