I was at the post office early that morning, hoping to be in and out in a short while.Yet, I 36 myself standing in a queue that went all the way into the hallway.I had never seen so many people there on a weekday.It seemed someone might have made an announcement, welcoming customers to carry as many 37 as they could and bring them in when I needed to have my own package 38 .The queue moved very slowly.My patience ran out and I got 39 .The longer it took, the angrier I became.When I got to the counter finally, I finished my 40 quickly and briefly, and then walked past the queue that was now extending past the front door.
"Excuse me," I said, trying not to be too pushy.Several people had to move 41 to make room for me to get to the 42 .
I stepped out, complaining about the 43 conditions.Thinking I was going to be late for my dentist appointment, I headed into the parking lot.
A woman was coming across the lot in my 44 .She was walking with determination, and each step sounded very heavy.I 45 that she looked as if she could breathe fire.It stopped me in my tracks.I 46 _ myself and it wasn't pretty.Had I looked like that? Her body language said that she was having a _47 day.My anger melted away.I wished I could wrap her in a hug but I was a 48 .So I did what I could in a minute 49 she hurried past me-I smiled.In a second everything changed.She was astonished, then somewhat 50 .Then her face softened and her shoulders 51 .I saw her take a deep breath.Her pace slowed and she smiled back at me as we passed each other.
I continued to smile all the way to my _52 .Wow, it's amazing what a simple smile can do.
From then on, I became aware of people's 53 and my own, the way we show our feelings.Now I use that _54 every day to let it 55 me that when facing the world, I can try a smile.

A few months ago I was at a bus stop in town in the evening. The bus came on time and I took the window seat. The bus route was by the seashore and I was enjoying the breeze (微风) while watching the sea waves. After a few minutes the bus made its next stop. A young boy and a girl got on. They were standing on my left when the bus pulled off. I looked at them curiously and realized that all the window seats were occupied (占据). They could sit but not together. Suddenly a different wave passed through my body and my inner mind gave me the advice to get up. I got up and offered them my seat. The young lady smiled kindly and said thanks. I occupied another seat and we parted our ways. I don’t remember whether I got off the bus before them or not.
Months passed by. Suddenly one day while I was standing at the same bus stop waiting some time for the bus to arrive I heard a voice.
“Excuse me, Uncle.” I looked in the direction of the voice. It was a beautiful young lady.
Puzzled, I said, “I do not recognize you.”
She said, “Do you remember you gave us your window seat?”
Puzzled, I said, “Maybe, but what is so great in that?”
She said, “If you had not given your seat that day, perhaps I would have not sat with my friend. By sitting together it helped us bridge a misunderstanding that had been between us forever. Do you know we are getting married next month?”
“Good! God bless both of you,” I replied.
The young lady again said thank you and went on her journey. I realized the importance of giving that day.
Why were the young boy and the girl standing on the bus?
A. Because they wanted to enjoy the sea view.
B. Because they couldn’t sit together.
C. Because there were no empty seats.

A. he wanted to do something special

The author’s act of kindness helped the young boy and the girl ______.
A. begin to talk to each other again after a quarrel
B. sit together and become friends very soon
C. clear up a misunderstanding between them

From the story, we can conclude that ______.
A. small things can create great happenings in life
B. it is giving rather than receiving that matters

阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入的最佳选项。
It was a cold winter morning. Half asleep at the train station, I stared into the distance, 31 for the train to take me to my 32 in Boston. The world was quiet. The very few people on the street kept to themselves, 33 their steaming cups of coffee.
Reaching into my pocket as the 34 was approaching, my numb hand searched for the $ 20 bill to pay my fare. The pocket was 35 ! I searched through my bag and then I felt 36 . Unless the money dropped from the sky, I’d be 37 there.
“What’s the matter?” A short, elderly man stood before me.
“Oh, nothing…Well, I 38 my money and now I can’t pay for the ticket. I’m going to 39 my math class and the train is leaving.”
“Here, use this.”
The man held a $ 20 bill. I looked up, 40 . People just didn’t do that any more. Everyone worried about their own 41 , rarely stopping to think about others, especially teenage strangers.
“Thank you, but no, I can’t.”
“ 42 it—go!” The man pushed me 43 the train. I bought a round-trip ticket, and he refused the change I 44 to give him back. I did not know what to say — a million thoughts raced through my mind, yet I stood 45 .
For the train ride I was silent. I began to see the world through 46 eyes. That man made a difference with such a simple 47 .
A week later I was at the train station again, with an extra $20 48 I saw the man. And there he was.
“Excuse me, sir, I believe I owe you this.” I 49 the money into his hand.
Failing to refuse, he said, “Just remember to do the same for someone in your shoes some day.” I smiled, 50 .
The elderly man is my hero. For many, heroes are famous, but my hero is a giving stranger who taught me a lesson in life. I will never forget his kindness.
