2.Mark felt that it was time for him to take part in his community activities,so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work.The city councilman(议员) was leading a discussion about the decreasing life quality.The neighborhood faced many problems.
Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls.There are charts for crime,parking problems,and for problems in vacant(空置的)buildings.People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilman.
It was too much for Mark."The problems are too big,"he thought.He turned to the man next to him and said,"I think this is a waste of my time.Nothing I could do would make a difference here."
Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop."People should just take care of themselves,"he decided."That's enough to do.I can't take on all the problems of the world."
As he neared the bus stop,Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby.She was trying to unlock her car,but she didn't have a free hand.As Mark got closer,her other child,a little boy,suddenly darted into the street.The woman tried to reach for him,but as she moved,her bag shifted and groceries started to fall out.Mark ran to take the boy's arm and led him back to his mother.Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief."Thanks!"she said."You have got great timing!"
"Just being neighborly,"Mark said.As he rode home,he glanced at the walls of the bus.On one of them was"Small acts of kindness add up."Mark smiled and thought,"Maybe that's a good place to start."

4.Anna Schiferl hadn't even got out of bed when she reached for her cell phone and typed a text to her mom,one recent Saturday.Mom was right downstairs in the kitchen.The text?Anna wanted an egg for breakfast.Soon after,Joanna Schiferl called,"If you want to talk to me,Anna,come downstairs and see me!"Anna laughs about it now."I was kind of being lazy,"she admits.
These days,many people with cell phones prefer texting to a phone call.And that's creating a communication divide,of sorts-the talkers vs.the texters.Some would argue that it's no big deal.But many experts say the most successful communicators will,of course,have the competence to do both.And they fear that more of us are unable to have-or at least are avoiding-the traditional face-to-face conversations.
Many professors say it is not common to see students outside of class."I sit in my office hours lonely now because if my students have a question,they email me,often late at night,"says Renee Houston,a professor at the University of Puget Sound in Washington state."And they never call."
As Anna sees it:"There are people you'll text,but won't call.It's just a way to stay in touch with each other."Some believe that scores of texts each day keep people more connected."The problem is that the conversation isn't very deep,"says Joseph Grenny,co-author of the book Crucial Conversations:Tools for Talking When Stakes are High.
"The problem has been there since we've had telephones-probably since the time of a telegraph,"Grenny says.Texting is just the latest way to do that.Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves,Grenny suggests that parents model the behavior for their children and put down their own cell phones.He says that they also should set limits,as Anna's mom did when she made the"no texting to people in the same house"rule.
24.According to Paragraph 1,JoannaA.
A.was very strict with her daughter

A.chance                           
B.ability                            
C.courage                   
D.patience
26.In Joseph Grenny's opinion,D.
A.cell phones make people lonelier
B.telephones help people communicate clearly
C.texting helps people have deeper conversations
D.talking should be encouraged instead of texting
27.What would be the best title for the text?C
A.Why is communication important?
