When I moved to Melbourne, my new city seemed so big and unfriendly. Then a routine mammogram found some suspicious tissue in one breast and I had to go to the oncology unit at Royal Melbourne Hospital.
It seemed a small challenge compared to the one I was about to face (I would eventually need an operation to cut one breast , but things started to go wrong right from the beginning. Not having a car or knowing the city, I was depending on a couple of buses to get me from A to B. Although I’d left myself plenty of time, it was soon obvious I was going to be late, as I had mistakenly boarded a bus that was taking me in the opposite direction.
Getting off, I stood on the footpath not knowing what to do. I looked into the eyes of a stranger, who was trying to get past me. Surprisingly, instead of moving on, she stopped to ask if I was OK. I started to explain my situation to her, and without realizing it, tears started running down my face.
The kind woman pointed to a bus stop across the street, where a bus would take me back into the city to my appointment. Sitting there waiting, I felt grateful that someone had been willing to help. Then, hearing a horn nearby, I looked up to see a car with my new friend waving at me to get in. She had returned to offer me a lift to the hospital.
Such unexpected kindness from a passer-by was a lovely gift to receive. As I climbed out of the car at the hospital and turned to thank her, she smiled and told me not to lose faith, for all things are possible.
36．What was the author’s problem besides breast cancer?
A．Not being familiar with the city. B．Not believing in the hospital.
C．Losing good sense of direction. D．Needing more money than she had.
37．From the passage, we know the one who offered the writer a lift to the hospital was .
A．her friend B．a stranger C．her relative D．a doctor
38．What is the best title of the passage?
A．Kindness Is Very Rare B．An Unexpected Gift
C．Love Exists around Us D．A Very Lucky Lady

科目：高中英语 来源：2011年山东省济宁市高一下学期期末考试英语题 题型：阅读理解
When
you cough or sneeze, you’d better turn your head away from others and cover your
mouth with the full part of your hand. And then, you should say, “Excuse me.”
This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this. Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public without placing a hand over the mouth. One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. If not, they will be passing those germs (细菌) along to everything and everyone they touch.
If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door. If the
door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other
person to pass through first, then you can walk through. If the door opens by
pushing, hold the door after you pass through.
After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had to discuss the problem with my students. Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go along way toward helping students realize hot to be polite and thank others. Once they’ve been told, they’re halfway there.
When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right. That will
give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the
moving stairs. When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a
doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter.
After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways. I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan. In both places, people made efforts to make way for others. On moving stairs, everyone stood to the right and walked to the left. On lifts, everyone would stand over to the side and allow others to exit before they would begin to enter.
1.When you cough or sneeze, you should ________.
A. touch everything B. cover your mouth
C. point out to the kids D. pass the germs to others
2.If you come to a door and someone is following you, you’d better _______.
A. hold the door B. pass through C. close the door D. stand to the side
3.From the passage we ca know the writer is a ________.
A. doctor B. traveler C. parent D. teacher
4.A. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. the rules of behavior in public B. the easy of communication
C. the acts of kindness among people D. the knowledge of social life
