    There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care .To water his flowers, he used two buckets(水桶) .One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one，which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.

    Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked (漏出) along the path.

    Sometimes the new bucket would say,“ See how capable I am ! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I don't know why he still bothers with you. What a waste of space you are!”

    And all that the old bucket could say was. “ I know I am not very useful, but I can only do my best. I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”

    One day, the gardener heard that kind of conversation .After watering the flowers as usual, he said , “You both have done your work very well .Now I am going to carry you back .I want you to look carefully along the path.”

    Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare（光秃秃的）earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.

    1.What was the old bucket ashamed of?

    A. His past. B. His aging.

    C. His manner. D. His leaking.

    2.What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?

    A. dirty B. dark

    C. worn-out D. ordinary-looking.

    3.The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to _________.

    A. take pity on the old one

    B. laugh at the old one

    C. show off its beautiful looks

    D. praise the gardener’s kindness

    4.Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?

    A. Because it was used to keep a balance

    B. Because it stayed in its best condition

    C. Because it had its own function

    D. Because it was taken as a treasure

    B

    Well, parents, surprise! Lots of us are using Twitter and Facebook to thumb rides, and not just to school. It’s awkward to be refused when you call a friend and ask for a ride. But with Twitter, you just look for other people heading the same way.

    It may sound risky, so many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides, and don’t branch out beyond friends when asking on Twitter just like me, but to some young people, especially those taking longer trips, stranger danger is less of a concern.

    “I think the digital connection of young people is really key, because younger generations grew up sharing things on line, sharing files, photos, music, etc, so they’ve been very used to sharing,” said Juliet Schor, a sociology professor at Boston College.

    The sharing economy got big during the recession (经济衰退), allowing people to access more goods, services using technology and even to share costs. And that technology, for me, is what the car was for my mom, a gateway to more freedom, like what my friend Earl says, “The symbol of freedom isn’t the car any more because there’s technology out there connecting you to a car.”

    According to the researchers at the University of Michigan, 30 years ago, eight in ten American 18-year-olds had a driver’s license compared to six in ten today. So it’s not that surprising that on my 16th birthday I wasn’t rushing to get a license but an iPhone.

    “Driving, for young people, does mean they have to disconnect from their technology, and that’s a negative. So if they could sit in the passage side and still be connected, that’s going to be a plus.” Schor continued. www..com

    To me, another plus is that ridesharing represents something, something much bigger than trying to save money. I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other. My generation shares their cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar. For the system to work, some of us still need our own cars. But until I get my own version of the silver Super Beetle, you can find me on Twitter.

    1.The American teens like the author, prefer to possess an iPhone as a birthday gift because _______.

    A. it is most fashionable and cool

    B. they are bored with driving cars

    C. they are fond of being connected

    D. it is much cheaper than a car

    2.We can learn from the text that _______.

    A. Twitter is a website for teens to make friends and achieve goals

    B. ridesharing can be seen as a sign that people still count on each other

    C. driving cars for teens means a plus and connecting with technology

    D. having a car and cost-sharing symbolize more freedom for the author’s mother

    3.Professor Juliet would agree that _______.

    A. young people will sit waiting to be contacted by reading a passage

    B. sharing economy is bound to be responsible for the recession

    C. young people tend to share a car with strangers by means of Twitter

    D. being connected via technology comes first for young people

    4.The best title for the passage is probably _______.

    A. Twitter, an Awesome Website

    B. Cars or iPhone

    C. Teens Use Twitter to Thumb Rides

    D. Cool Teens on the Go
