读写任务 (共1小题,满分25分)阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Drunk driving, a major concern currently, is not a funny thing, which has killed many people and ruined the lives of many others. At present, traffic accidents become "the world's first harm".

Two months ago, after drinking a lot of alcohol, my friend's uncle drove the car home. He was heavily drunk, but he still drove home by himself. On the road near his home, an old lady was going across the road, but his uncle didn't notice her and he was still moving on under the influence of alcohol. And the old lady didn't see his uncle, either. In the end, the lady died. Later, a blood test showed the alcohol in every 100 cc of his uncle's blood had reached 175.7 mg, indicating he was seriously drunk.

Had it not been for his uncle's drunkenness, the terrible accident would not have happened. If the lady hadn't died, she would live a happy life with her daughters and sons. And his uncle's home was also destroyed by his uncle. Therefore, two families were destroyed.

I wish more people could realize the seriousness of drunk driving and obey the traffic regulations faithfully. Always remember: refuse to drink and drive, and give a safe world to you and me!

I am a manager who is in charge of taking care of the elderly and many of my clients live out of state.

This year, a very sweet old lady that I care for, Alice, had gone through a particularly rough time. She had been in hospital twice. In November I was finally able to get her back to her “home” into an “assisted living facility”(养老院).

Alice has dementia(痴呆症) and thought her daughter was coming to visit her on Christmas day and that they were going to have the whole family together like the old days. When she finally realized that the happy moment was not going to happen, she was so tearful. Knowing that her daughter was coming after Christmas was not enough to cheer her up, I hated the idea of her being alone on the holiday!

On Christmas Eve, I gave her a surprise by asking if she would like to go to a candlelight service at church that night. Instead of taking her to my church, I took her to her old neighborhood church where all her friends were. We got there early and I got each of us a seat where her friends could see her as they came in. The plan worked out very perfectly. All of her friends seemed to be there and rushed over to greet her and sit with her. The candlelight service was a beautiful, tearful affair and Alice got a lot of hugs and love from her old and new friends there.

The truth of the story is that I am the one who got the best gift:the smile on Alice’s face and the feeling that I made a difference.

Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.

Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.
