【小题10】考查名词。 Advertisement广告；order 命令；notice通知；suggestion建议。根据go home和we will tell you 可知他们被告知回家等候通知，故选C。
【小题11】考查名词。 Choice选择；result结果；mark标记；idea主意。有上下文可知，第三天早上作者的儿子受到了没有被录用的消息，所以此处指的是最终的结果，故选B。

How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter，rude boss, or an insensitive employee your day?
Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cab. One day I was in a taxi and we headed the airport. We were driving in the lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his , slide sideways，and at the very last moment our car stopped and the other car by just inches！The driver of the other car , the guy who almost caused a big accident, looked around and started at us.
My taxi driver just and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was ,so I said，"Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！” This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call "The Law of the Garbage Truck".
He said, “ Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of , full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on . Don’t take it personally; Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Believe me. You’ll be .”
So I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and it to other people at work, at home, or on the street? It was then that I said, “I don’t want their garbage and I’m not going to spread it anymore.”
Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s in your life. See, Roy Baumeister, a psychology researcher from Florida State University，found in his extensive research that you __ bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories more easily, and you __ them more frequently. So love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you _ it！The odds are against you when a Garbage Truck comes your way, but when you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”，you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by go of the bad.
Have a Garbage-Free Day！Have a marvelous, garbage-free day！The seeds you plant today the harvest you reap tomorrow.

Fifteen years spent in the field of education has provided me with many treasured moments. One of the most unforgettable when I was teaching second , 10 years ago.
In May I decided to plan something special for the children: a Mother’s Day tea. We had put our heads together to ideas of how to our mothers. We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day. I was surprised and to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I invited my own mother.
Finally, the big day arrived. Each child up at our classroom door, expecting the arrival of his or her mom. it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t shown up and he was looking .
I took my mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” I said, “I have a bit of problem here and I was if you could keep my mother while I’m busy.”
My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep .
Now 10 years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment. Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. I had the students complete an outline of the day’s and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if was completed. When I came Jimmy’s page, he had written “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs. Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”
I told him I really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed and his own thanks and walked away. Suddenly he ran back and gave me a big hug. “Thanks again. No one even knew my mother didn’t it.”
I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had stopped hugging teachers years ago.
