I still clearly remember that day．I was on the side of the road for about four hours with my big jeep．I put signs in the windows that said, "Need a jack （千斤顶）．"
As I was about to give up, a truck stopped and a man got off．He looked at the situation, made a judgment and went back to take a jack．After about two hours, we finished the job with sweats．We were both dirty．His wife took a large bottle of water for us to wash our hands．
I tried to put $ 20 in the man's hand, but he wouldn't take it, so I went to give it to his wife as quietly as I could．I asked their little girl where they lived, thinking maybe I'd send them a gift．She said they lived in Mexico．They were in Oregon now, so Mommy and Daddy could pick cherries for the next few weeks．After that, they were going to pick peaches and then go back home．
After I said goodbye and started going back to my jeep, the girl ran to me and handed me a tamale（玉米粽子）for lunch．I thanked them again and walked back to my jeep．When I opened the tamale, what did I find inside? My $ 20! I ran to the truck and the guy rolled down his window．He started shaking his head, smiled, and with what looked like great concentration said in English, "Today you, tomorrow me." Then he drove away, with his daughter waving to me from the back．
This family, working on a seasonal basis where time is money, took a couple of hours to help a stranger while others passed by quietly．
Since then I've helped many people like the Mexican family．I didn't accept their money．Every time I was able to help, I felt as if I was putting something in the bank．

A．it was completely wrong for others to pass by quietly
B．it was quite easy to help the author repair the jeep

I still remember the days when l was a youthful student in an engineering school．I lived a casual life，without caring about the future．I smoked，drank with friends and made girl friends．Little did I realize that casualness would certainly lead to loss．
Two years had passed and l was staring down a report card that highlighted FAII in more than half the subjects．I didn’t care，at least not till my dad found out about it．You see．I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education，my dad financed me．

One year later，I went from a miserable failure to a magna curn laude（优等成绩）．Life was never the same again．This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it，however small or large．Even today it still motivates me when I feel that l’m about to lose or give up．It reminds me that I can do it！

选项标号涂黑。
When you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground. I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way.
It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie's basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green.
"Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint. " She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes ( 条纹) of colors across the pavement (人行道). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was fantastic!
The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn't wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother's face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.
My mother shut the ear door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, "What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors' trees, but this! Come inside right now !" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art.
"Now go clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement.
Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.
1. What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?
A. To introduce Stephanie to her. B. To prevent her from seeing his painting.
C. To put the materials back in the yard. D. To show his artwork to her.
2. In his mother's eyes, the writer __ .
A. was a born artist B. always caused trouble
C. was a problem solver D. worked very hard
3. The underlined word "rainbow" in the last paragraph refers to __ .
A. the rainbow in the sky B. the stripes on the pavement
C. something imaginative and fun D. important lessons learned in childhood
4. It can be learned from the passage that parents should .
A. encourage children to paint
B. value friendship among children
C. discover the hidden talent in children
D. protect rather than destroy children's dreams
