阅读理解

  We were driving on the right road when, all of a sudden, a black car pulled out of a parking space right in front of us.My taxi driver stepped on his brake, skidded(打滑), and missed the black car's back end by just inches! The driver of the black car, who almost caused a major accident, turned his head angrily and started shouting bad words at us.

  My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy.I mean, my taxi driver was friendly.So, I said, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to hospital! ” And the following is what my taxi driver told me, which I now call “the law of the Garbage Truck”.

  “Many people are like garbage trucks.They run around full of garbage, full of anger, and full of disappointment.As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump(倾卸)it.And if you let them, they dump it on you.When someone wants to dump on you, don't take it personally.Just smile, wave, wish him well, and move on.Believe me.You'll be happier.”

  So this is “The Law of the Garbage Truck”.I started thinking: How often do I let “Garbage Trucks” run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets? It was then that I said, “I'm not going to do it any more.”

  I began to see “Garbage Trucks”.I see the load they’re carrying.I see them coming to drop it off.And like my taxi driver, I don't make it a personal thing; I just smile, wave, and move on.

  Good leaders know they have to be ready for their next meeting.Good parents know that they have to welcome their children home from school with hugs and kisses.What about you? The mark of a successful person is how quickly he can get back his focus on what's important.

B.

(3)

C
After watching my mother deal with our family of five, I can’t understand why answer to the
question, “What do you do?” is always, “Oh, I’m just a housewife.” JUST a housewife?” Anyone who spends most of her time in meal preparation and cleanup, keeping the house clean, attending PTA meetings, leading a scout troop, playing taxi driver to us kids when it’s time for school, musical lessons or the dentist, doing volunteer work for her community is not just a housewife. She’s the real Wonder Woman.
Why is it that so many mothers like mine think of themselves as second.class or something similar? Where has this notion come from? Have we males made them feel this way? Has our society  made“going to work” outside the home seem more important than what a housewife must face each day?  I would be every curious to see what would happen if a housewife went on strike.Dishes would  pie up.Food in the house would run out.There would be no learn clothes when needed.Walking and bus riding would increase.
I doubt if the man of the house would be able to take over.Oh,he would probably start out with the attitude that he can do just as good a job,but how long would that last? Not 1ong, once he had to come home each night after work to more housework. There would be no coming home to a prepared meal; The kids would all be screaming for something to eat, clean clothes and more bus fare money. Once he quieted the kids, he’d have to clean the house, go shopping, make sure that kids got a bath, after clearing out all the dog hairs from the bathtub. Once the kids were down for the night, he might be able to craw(爬)into an unmade bed and try to read the morning newspaper.
64.What does the writer’s mother NOT do according to the first paragraph?
A.Cooking.            B.Tidying the house.  
C.Driving a taxi.         D.Some unpaid work.
65.The underlined word “notion” in the second paragraph can be replaced by the word        .
A.mother     B.citizen      C.similarity  D.thought
66.We can learn from the second paragraph        .
A.mothers are actually great women  B.our society looks down upon housewives
C.housewives should go on a strike    D.doing housework is not important at all
67.The possible main idea of the third paragraph is        .
A.men should share housework with their wives
B.attitude is not the only thing needed to do a job well
C.kids are the most challenging part of the housework
D.men are unlikely to handle the work of a housewife
