题目列表(包括答案和解析)
Last July, my 12-year-old car died on California's Santa Na Freeway. It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles form home. I couldn't reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes, I figured I'd just head east.
A bus pulled up, and I asked the driver how far she was going. "Four more lights," she said. There was another bus I could take form there. This clearly was going to be a long night.
She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for. After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its wind-shield. It was out of service. But the door opened, and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver.
"I just can't leave you here, "she said. "This isn't the nicest place. I'll give you a ride home."
“You’ll drive me home in the bus?” I asked, perplexed(迷惑的).
“No, I’ll take you in my car,” she said.
“It’s a long way,” I protested(抗议).
“Come on,”she said. “I have nothing else to do.”
As we drove from the station in her car, she began telling me a story. A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas. A good Samaritan picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car. “I’m just passing the favor along.”she said.
When I offered her money as a thank-you, she wouldn’t hear of it. “That would not make it a favor,” she said. “Just do something nice for somebody. Pass it along.”

In today’s society, a college degree tells little about what you know in comparison to what it tells about what you can learn.For instance, the IT world is constantly changing.Anything you learn today will probably be useless in a few short years.The point is to learn to learn.
Blogging works exactly the same way.And I believe this to be true regardless of your end goal.If you’re trying to make money, this is abundantly clear.There’s always more money to be made.If you’re teaching on a subject, you are constantly looking for new information to share.Even if you’re just sharing your words with others for pleasure, you’re continuously improving your writing and storytelling, so people don’t get bored of you.
This is one of the reasons that bloggers burn out.They forget this.They think they have an unlimited amount of content just waiting to burst from their brain.They get comfortable.Then they start to run out of juice.Sure, at times it seems that some bloggers just have it.They are experts in their fields and will simply feed us with invaluable content forever.But this is not true.Pay attention.Even famous bloggers would run out of content eventually without constant learning.
The point is apparent.Don’t think you’ve succeeded. There are plateaus, but there are no peaks.What happens when someone thinks they’ve hit the peak? They quickly begin sliding down the other side.Always be learning from your experiences.See what posts work for your readers.Which get the best response? Which are completely ignored? Which bring in the most Google traffic, or get the most Absence clicks? Don’t settle or your blog will close for good eventually.
