They crossed in front of me as I was driving out of the store parking lot.I would be delayed for a whole ten seconds.However,I realized that it was an elderly couple.No more anger.

The man leaned on his wife who walked in front of him.He not only used her for support but it was obvious that he was blind.She was his eyes as well.The two of them worked as one—each needing the other to function in this fast?changing world.That little example of true strength that day changed my whole personal perception of life.Suddenly I wasn't so mad about having to work a few extra hours on Saturday.I had my strength,and I was still relatively young.

That picture of those two elderly people walking with dignity(尊严,自尊)and strength stayed with me the entire week.My life wasn't so bad after all.I had my health and a good job.My wife always gave me good advice whenever I needed it.I started to think—not only was I lucky to have it all,but also was that wonderful old couple,who,despite the trials and sufferings of a long life,still had the love and support of each other to carry them through this world.

There are so many people out there just like that couple.My wife and I sometimes picture ourselves in our old age,walking arm in arm into the sunset.That image always gives us a warm feeling of comfort.Just remember,none of us would be here if it wasn't for our elders.We should spend an extra minute listening and learning when it comes to helping our elder friends.They need it.

1.What was the writer's first reaction(反应)when he was stopped by the old couple?

A. He got angry at being delayed. B. He didn't mind at all.

C. He showed great pity for the couple. D. He waited patiently.

2.The underlined word “perception” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.

A. strength B. method C. picture D. understanding

3.From the third paragraph,we can learn that ________.

A. the writer once decided to change his job B. the writer's wife gave him lots of support

C. old people are more likely to get impatient with others D. it is a bad thing to live a long life full of hardships

4.The writer wants to tell us in the last paragraph that ________.

A. everyone should live with dignity and strength B. old people can teach us many important lesson

I`m Mary. I liked doing chores when I was young. My mother started teaching us to cook when we were five or six because my father was at home for only two days a month, so my mother had to do everything.
