In a moment of personal crisis, how much help can you expect from a New York taxi driver? I began studying this question and found the answers interesting.

One morning I got into three different taxis and announced, “Well, it’s my first day back in New York in seven years. I’ve been in prison.” Not a single driver replied, so I tried again. “Yeah, I shot a man in Reno.” I explained, hoping the driver would ask me why, but nobody asked. The only response came from a Ghanaian driver, “Reno? That is in Nevada?”

Taxi drivers were uniformly sympathetic when I said I’d just been fired. “This is America,” a Haitian driver said. “One door is closed. Another is open.” He argued against my plan to burn down my boss’s house. A Pakistani driver even turned down a chance to profit from my loss of hope; he refused to take me to the middle of George Washington Bridge—a $20 trip. “Why you want to go there? Go home and relax. Don’t worry. Take a new job.”

One very hot weekday in July, while wearing a red ski mask and holding a stuffed pillowcase with the word “BANK” on it, I tried calling a taxi five times outside different banks. The driver picked me up every time. My ride with a Haitian driver was typical of the superb assistance I received.

“Let’s go across the park.” I said. “I just robbed the bank there. I got $25,000.”

“$25,000?” He asked.

“Yeah, you think it was wrong to take it?”

“No, man. I work 8 hours and I don’t make almost $70. If I can do that, I do it too.”

As we approached 86th and Lexington, I pointed to the Chemical Bank.

“Hey, there’s another bank,” I said, “Could you wait here a minute while I go inside?”

“No, I can’t wait. Pay me now.” His reluctance may have something to do with money—taxi drivers think the rate for waiting time is too low—but I think he wanted me to learn that even a bank robber can’t expect unconditional support.

1.Why did the Pakistani driver refuse to take the author to the middle of the George Washington Bridge?

A. Because he was able to help the author to find a new job.

B. Because he wanted to go home and relax.

C. Because it was far away from his home.

D. Because he thought that the author would commit suicide.

2.What is the author’s interpretation of the driver’s reluctance “to wait outside the Chemical bank”?

A. The driver thought that the rate for waiting time was too low.

B. The driver thought it wrong to support a taxi rider unconditionally.

C. The driver was frightened and wanted to leave him as soon as possible.

D. The driver did not want to help a suspect to escape from a bank robbery.

3.Which of the following statements is true about New York taxi drivers?

A. They are ready to help you do whatever you want to.

B. they often refuse to pick up those who would kill themselves.

C. They are sympathetic with those who are out of work.

D. They work only for money.

At a primary school in a small town in the east of South Carolina, second-grade teachers Garneau and Lynne are convinced that separating elementary-age boys and girls produces immediate academic improvement in both genders(性别).

David Chadwell, South Carolina’s expert of single gender education says, “Boys and girls learn, hear and respond to their surroundings differently.We can teach boys and girls based on what we now know.”

Male and female eyes are not organized in the same way, he explains.The organization of the male eye makes it sensitive to motion and direction.“Boys understand the world as objects moving through space,” he says.

The male eye is also drawn to cooler colors like silver and black.It’s no accident that boys tend to create pictures of moving objects instead of drawing the happy colorful family, like girls do in their class.

The female eye, on the other hand, is drawn to warmer colors like red, yellow and orange.To attract girls, Chadwell says, the teacher doesn’t need to move as much as in boy’s class.Using descriptive phrases and lots of colors in presentations or on the blackboard gets their attention.

Boys and girls also hear differently.“When someone speaks in a loud tone, girls understand it as yelling,” Chadwell says.“They think you’re mad and can shut down.” Girls are more sensitive to sounds.He advises girls’ teachers to watch the tone of their voices.Boys’ teachers should sound more forceful, even excited.

A boy’s nervous system causes him to be more cautious when he is standing, moving, and the room temperature is around 69 degrees Fahrenheit.Stress in boys, he says, tends to increase blood flow to their brains, a process that helps them stay focused.Girls are more focused when seated in a warmer room around 75 degrees Fahrenheit.Girls also respond to stress differently.When exposed to threat and conflict, blood goes to their guts(肠道), leaving them feeling nervous or anxious.

These differences can be applied in the classroom, Chadwell adds.“Single gender programs are about making the best use of the learning.”

1.What is David Chadwell’s attitude toward separating elementary-age boys and girls while learning?

A.Supportive B.Worried

C.Concerned D.Uninterested

2.To engage boy in a class, the teacher ______.

A.must have a moving object in this hand

B.needs to wear clothes in warm color

C.has to speak politely

D.had better move constantly while teaching

3.Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?

( ?= Paragraph 1 ?= Paragraph 2 ?= Paragraph 3 …... ?= Paragraph 8 )

4.Which of the following students is most likely to be focused?

A.A boy sitting in a warm room

B.A standing boy who is faced with stress

C.A girl standing in a cold room

D.A girl who is facing a lot of pressure

From the health point of view we are living in a marvelous age. We are immunized (被免疫) from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. It is almost certain hat one day remedies will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads. Man versus the motorcar! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.

It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motorcar often brings out a man’s very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-years-olds and utterly selfish. All their hidden frustrations, disappointments and jealousies seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving.

The surprising thing is that society smiles so kindly on the motorist and seems to forgive his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy tragic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is desecrated (滥用) by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than a statistic, to be conveniently forgotten.

It is high time a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are notoriously lax and even the strictest are not strict enough. A code which was universally accepted could only have a dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate. Here are a few examples of some of the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so, the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through strict annual tests for safety. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can weaken a person’s driving ability. Present drinking and drinking laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter. Maximum and minimum speed limits should be enforced on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specifications for manufacturers. All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned. These measures may sound extremely harsh. But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the annual loss of human life. After all, the world is for human being, not motorcars.

1.The main idea of this passage is that __________ .

A. traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists.

B. thousands of people the world over are killed each year.

C. the laws of some countries about driving are too lax.

D. only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents.

2.What does the author think of society toward motorists?

A. Society smiles on motorists.

B. Huge car parks are built in cities and towns.

C. Victims of accidents are nothing.

D. Society forgives their rude driving.

3.Why does the author say, ‘His car becomes the extension of his personality’.

A. Driving can show his real self.

B. Driving can show the positive part of his personality.

C. Driving can bring out his character.

D. His can show his temper.

4.The attitude of the author is _________.

A. ironical B. critical

C. appealing D. aggressive

I fell in love with Yosemite National Park the first time I saw it, when I was 13.My parents took us there for camping.
