阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选择最佳选项。

Teaching English as a foreign language is very popular for many travellers. In March I started teaching English in Thailand.

    I really love teaching. I knew it could be a lot of fun, especially with my students who are 3-5 years old. But I had no idea just how much I would actually enjoy it. The only reason I started was simple - it was an easy way to make money.

    I had no idea Thai children could speak English so well at such a young age. My children could describe colours, shapes, body parts, days of the week and classroom objects!

   Two things changed after working. The first one was in the first weeks of teaching, I liked to have my lessons planned out, but things didn't go as expected. Now I am happy to walk into a classroom with whatever I need for the subject.

   I guess the other thing would be how much the children trust me. 18 weeks ago these children were unconfident and pretty shy, but now they can't wait to get involved.

   In 6 months I have no idea where I will be, but right now I love teaching and enjoy working with the kids every day. Will I teach again - I'd like to think so!

It was Sunday. I had one last patient to see. I went to her room in a hurry and stood at the door. She was an old woman,     1      (sit) by the bed, trying to put socks on her       2       (foot).

     She asked if I   3    (can)help put on her socks. Instead, I said something like this, “How are you ____4_____(feel)? Your blood pressure was high,  but  it’s ___5_____(good) today…” She _____6____(stop)me, “Sit down, Doctor. This is my story, not your story.”

   I was      7  (surprise) and then I sat down. She began to tell me that her only son lived around the corner from her, but she   8        (not see) him for five years. She believed that this was the main reason for her health problems. After  9  (hear) her story, I asked if there was anything else I could do for her. She said no and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to  10   (listen).

   Each story is different. Some are true, others not. Yet that does not 11  (real) matter. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard. From the old lady I learned that listening to  12 (someone) story does not cost a lot of money, but it is much better than expensive medicine.

The Beijing Underground’s Line Ten will soon have 40 “reverse vending machines(有偿自动回收机)”,which will pay people for their empty plastic bottles.

“We have placed two such machines at Beijing Capital International Airport and four at the city’s underground stations. They have been well received so far,” said Feng Juan, an engineer from the company which makes the machines. “People are encouraged and paid for turning waste into treasure. More than 30,000 empty bottles have been collected since December,” she said.

If something else, such as waste paper, is thrown into the machine, the machine will spit(吐) it out.

“Supported by the government, the reverse vending machines will be introduced to colleges and universities soon,” Feng said.

The company is also considering covering more recycling materials, including used books and teaching materials.

“Long-term plans call for about 2,000 reverse vending machines to be place throughout the city in the next few years, including 80 at colleges and universities, shopping malls, communities and office buildings,” Feng said.

Chang Tao, director of the company, said that if the new project works well in the city, the company will consider offering the waste-to-treasure service to other developed cities in the eastern part of China.
