Every Wednesday，I go to Cantata Adult Life Services，a local retirement community in Brookfield，Illinois，US，with my classmates to do community service．
Our visits last about an hour，and we bring 25—30 students every time．We play board games and cards with the elderly while we’re there．
You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about“life back then”，but nothing compares to talking to the people who were actually there．Just hearing their stories has touched me in a way I never thought possible．
Whether it was talking to 98-year-old“Hurricane Hilda”about her glory days as a roller skater or chatting with Lou about the times she danced with a famous actor，I was completely mesmerized by every single memory the elderly wanted to share with me．Even those who don’t have amazing memories make the experience fulfilling(充实的)．I remember visiting Mrs Robinson．She couldn’t recall much about her past，but she told me she’d never forget how kind I was just to listen to her．It made me realize that it’s the little things that make life worth living．
If there’s one thing I’ve realized in my three years of visiting Cantata，it’s that presence——just being there—means more than anything to many of them．And despite how busy our lives are，there’s always time to make someone’s day．

Road rage is commonly seen or often happens in our daily lives. There have been countless stories about this new and scary phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. While drunk driving remains a critical problem, the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. For instance, last year alone, 41, 907 people died on the highways. Of those deaths, it’s estimated that about two-thirds were caused at last in part by aggressive driving behavior.
Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now? Experts have several theories, and all are probably partially correct. One suggestion is sheer overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. However, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more cars in the same amount of space; and the problem is magnified in urban areas.
Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day, stress levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers. These factors, when combined in certain stations, can spell Road Rage.
You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud at a lower driver, sounded the born long and hard at another car, or sped up to keep another driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!
Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do to avoid any major conflict. If you are easily influenced by road rage, the key is to discharge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another driver’s rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.
1. Last year on the highways, .
A. approximately two thirds of drivers were killed by road rages
B. road rage remained the No. 1 killer and took 41,907 people’s lives
C. more people were killed by aggressive driving than by drunk driving.
D. drunk driving was a problem more serious than aggressive driving.
2.As a cause of aggressive driving, which of the following is not included?
A. Drivers’ stress and anxiety.
B. Rush hour traffic.
C. Increasing number of cars.
D. Overcrowded roads.
3.Which of the following shows the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The bad results of road rage
B. How to discharge your emotion properly.
C. The practical ways to escape any fight on roads
D. People easily influenced by road rage

When I began planning to move to Auckland to study, my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India, where we lived. She worried particularly about the lack of jobs and cultural differences and the chance that I would face racism.
Despite these concerns, I came to New Zealand in July 2009. I have found the place and the people very nice and supportive. Soon after I arrived, I realized the importance of getting a job to supply my living expenses.
Determined to do this on my own, I spent a whole day going from door to door for a job. However, I received little or no response(回应).
One afternoon, I walked into a building to ask if there were any job opportunities(机会). The people there were very surprised and advised me not to continue my job search in that manner .As I was about to leave, a clerk in the building, who had been listening to what others had said, approached me and asked me to wait outside. Fifteen minutes later, he returned ,He asked me what my plans were and encouraged me to stay confident. Then he offered to take me to Royal Oak to search for a job.
I was a little surprised, but had a good feeling about him,so I went along. Along the way ,I realized that I had run out of resumes(简历). Seeing this, the man stopped at his business partner’s office to make me fifteen extra copies. He also gave me tips on dressing and speaking and added that I should give him a call if I ever needed anything. I handed out my resume and went home feeling very satisfied. The following day, I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job.
It seems that the world always gives back to you when you need it .And this time, it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing.

If you are looking to putting a tree in your home for Christmas, there is always one debate that seems to arise in most households: whether you want a real tree or fake tree. Year after year, as we find ourselves cleaning old pine needles (松针) for months on end, we decide that we will never get another real tree. So that begs the question: Which kind of tree is better?
There is certainly a lot to be said for real trees. There is something fun about gathering the family together, going to a Christmas tree farm, and selecting or even cutting down your own tree. Real Christmas trees have that lovely holiday pine needle smell and they look great in your home.
Of course, on the other hand, they also leave a complete mess behind and needles that seem to keep appearing for weeks or even months after the tree comes down. You must also find a way to deal with your real Christmas tree after you’re done, which may mean cutting it into pieces so it will fit in the trash. Many dustmen will refuse to take away a tree that is left beside your regular trash, especially if it is a big tree or an old, yellow one with falling needles, making it hard to pick up. They don’t want a face full of sharp needles any more than you do!
With a fake Christmas tree, there is no mess, but there is also no Christmas smell and no exciting trip to the Christmas tree farm. Of course, these trees look the same in appearance as a real tree when decorated. Many of them come already with lights, so using that old, messy string of lights will be a thing of the past. For some people, a can of pine air freshener is enough to recreate the pleasant smell of a real tree.
As to which tree is the better choice, it is really a matter of personal preference. Both real and fake trees certainly have their benefits, and knowing which is better for you this Christmas really depends on what your family wants.
1.Which of the following shows the benefits of real Christmas trees?
a.providing more fun
b.easy to clean up
c.giving off a natural smell
d.easy to decorate
A. a, c B. a, d C. b, c D. b, d
2.The third paragraph is mainly about ________.
A. why many dustmen refuse to take away a real tree
B. how long a real tree can live
C. how to cut a real tree into pieces
D. what weaknesses a real tree has
3.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 shows that fake Christmas trees _______.
A. look more beautiful B. are more fashionable
C. can be used longer D. are more convenient
4.What is the author’s attitude towards this debate?
A. Objective. B. Disapproving.
C. Skeptical. D. Optimistic.
