One night, as Diaz stepped off the train and onto a nearly empty platform, a teenage boy approached and pulled out a knife.
“He wanted my money, so I just gave him my wallet and told him, ‘Here you go ’” Diaz says.
As the teen began to walk away, Diaz told him, “Hey, wait a minute. You forgot something. If you’re going to be robbing people for the rest of the night, you might as well take my coat to keep you warm.”
The robber looked at him puzzled, saying, “Why are you doing this?”
Diaz replied, “If you’re willing to risk your freedom for a few dollars, then you must really need the money. I mean, all I wanted to do was get dinner and if you really want to join me…..”
Diaz says he and the teen went into a diner and sat in a booth.
“The manager comes by, the dishwashers come by, the waiters come by to say hi,” Diaz says.
The kid said, “You know everybody here. Do you own this place?”
“No, I just eat here a lot,” Dias said. “But you’re even nice to the dishwasher,” he said.
Diaz replied, “Well, haven’t you been taught you should be nice to everybody?”
“Yea, but I didn’t think people actually behaved that way,” the teen said.
When the bill arrived, Diaz said, “You’re going to have to pay for this bill because you have my money and I can’t pay for this. So if you give me my wallet back, I’ll gladly treat you.”
The teen returned it immediately. “I gave him $20…. I figure maybe it’ll help him.” Diaz says he asked for something in return--- the teen’s knife--- “and he gave it to me.”
Afterwards, when Diaz told his mother what happened, she said, “You’re the type of kid that if someone asked you for the time, you gave them your watch.”
“I figure, you know, if you treat people right, you can only hope that they treat you right. It’s as simple as it gets in this complicated world.”
小题1:What did Diaz do to the teen?
A.He gave the teen a new walletB.He treated the teen to dinner
C.He gave his coat to the teenD.He taught the teen a lesson
小题2:From the passage we can infer that the boy _______.
A.expressed his gratitude for Diaz’s kindness
B.gave up the idea of robbing in the end
C.wasn’t taught how to be nice to everybody
D.gave the knife to Diaz in return for his forgiveness
小题3:For what Diaz did, his mother showed an attitude of _______.
A.complaintB.concernC.criticismD.praise
小题4:By telling the story of Diaz, the author intends to tell us ______.
A.to keep calm in dangerB.not to go out alone at night
C.to treat others kindlyD.not to harm others on purpose

小题1:B
小题2:B
小题3:D
小题4:C
文章讲述的是Diaz 在遇到一个少年对他进行抢劫时并没有粗暴的对待这个少年,反而请他吃饭,在这一过程中说服了那个少年抢劫犯放弃抢劫的念头的过程。
小题1:事实细节题。根据文章第五段可知。
小题2:判断推理题。根据文章倒数第三段,最终抢劫的孩子把钱还给了Diaz,并且把刀也给了他,说明那个孩子放弃了抢劫。
小题3:事实细节题。Diaz的妈妈在最后两段说的话就表明她很赞同他的做法。
小题4:判断推理题。还是根据文章的最后一段,加上对整个故事的叙述可以推断出作者写这个故事的目的就是想说明只有真诚对待别人,别人才会对你好。这就是这个复杂的世界的最简单的道理。

I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I ’m left 36 . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other 37
I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, 38  children from different races and religions played and studied 39  in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone s 40 from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and Iwas an Indian Hindu——we just  41 our differences. Perhaps, our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice,well 42  or otherwise.
We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we'd   43  the countryside on our bicycles, hoping to   44 the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his 45 .
When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail s family later returned to their village, and I   46   touch with him.
One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I   47  my destination. The driver acknowledged my    48 but did not move off. Instead, he looked 49  at me. “Raddar?" he said, using my childhood nickname(绰号). I was astonished at being so 50 addressed (称呼). Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two 51 we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true affection, something 52  to describe.
If we can allow our children to be  53  without prejudice, they'll build friendships with people, regardless of race or religion, who will be 54  their side through' thick and thin. On such friendships are societies built and 55 we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, 44we happy few, we band of brothers".

Tom arrived at the bus station quite early for the London bus. The bus for London would not leave until five to twelve. He saw a lot of people waiting in the station. Some were standing in lines; others were walking about. There was a group of schoolgirls. Their teacher was trying to keep them in order. Tom looked around but there was nowhere for him to sit.
He walked into the station café. He looked up at the clock there. It was only twenty to twelve. He found a seat and sat down, facing a large mirror on the wall. Just then, John, one of Tom’s friends, came in and sat with Tom.
“What time is your bus?” asked John.
“Oh, there is plenty of time yet,” answered Tom.
“Oh, I’ll get you some more tea then,” said John.
They talked while drinking. Then Tom looked at the clock again.
“Good heavens! It’s going back-ward!” he cried. “A few minutes ago it was twenty to twelve and now it’s half past eleven.”
“You are looking at the clock in the mirror,” said John.

We are going on a long train journey. Out of the windows, we can see cars running on nearby highways, children waving at a crossing, cattle grazing(吃草) on a distant hillside, smoke pouring from factories, village houses and city skylines.
But   36  in our minds is the final destination(目的地). On a certain day at a certain hour, we will  37  into the station. Bands will be playing and flags   38  . Once we get there, so many wonderful dreams will   39  and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a(n)   40   jigsaw(拼图) puzzle. How restlessly we pace the aisles(过道), damning(诅咒) the minutes for waiting, waiting for the station.
“When we reach the  41  , that will be it!” We cry “When I am 18.” “When I  42  a new 450SL Mercedes Benz!” “When I put the   43  kid through college.” “When I have   44  off the debts!” “When I get a promotion(提升).” “When I reach the age of retirement, I shall live   45  ever after!”
  46  , we come to realize that there is no such station as we arrive at once and for all. The  47  joy of life is the trip. The station is only a dream. It   48  leaves us behind.
“Cherish(珍视) the moment” is a good   49  . It is the burdens(负担) of today that drive us to keep on   50  . And it is the regrets over yesterday that motivate(激发) us to overcome the   51  and look forward to the future.
So   52  pacing the aisles and counting the miles.   53  , climb more mountains, eat more ice cream, go barefoot(赤脚) more   54  , swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more and cry less. Life must be lived   55  we go along. The station will come soon enough.
