26、Twenty years ago, I drove a cab for a living. One night I took a fare at 2:30 AM. When I arrived to collect, standing on the sideway was a small woman in her 80’s with a big nylon suitcase.
After I helped her into the cab, she gave me an address, and asked, “Could you drive through downtown?” “It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly. “I don’t mind,” she said “I’m in no hurry. I’m on my way to a hospice(临终安养院).” I looked in the rear-view mirror. Her eyes were wet. I quietly reached over and shut off the meter. “What route would you like me to take?” I asked.
For the next two hours, we drove through the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived when they were newlyweds. She had me pull up in front of a shabby house where she had gone dancing as a girl. Sometimes she’d ask me to slow in front of a particular building and sat staring into the darkness, saying nothing. At last, she said, “I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the destination. It was a grev low building.
“How much do I owe you?” she asked, reaching into her purse. “Nothing,” I said. Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly, and whispered a “Thank you”. I squeezed her hand and walked into the dim morning light. Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the closing of a life.
I didn’t pick up any more passengers that shift but drove aimlessly lost in thought. What if that woman had gotten a driver impatient to end his shift? What if I had refused to drive through downtown? Great moments often catch us unaware, beautifully wrapped in what others may consider a small one.
【1】What caused the author to turn off the meter?
A．His uncertainty of the route.
B．His sympathy to the woman.
C．The malfunction of the meter.
D．The cold weather at the mid-night.
【2】What’s the intention of the woman’s ride through downtown?
A．To find a place to settle down.
B．To revisit where her memories lay.
C．To kill time before the hospice opened.
D．To see the city aimlessly for the last time.
【3】What struck the author in the end?
A．The struggles in the woman’s life.
B．The courage the woman displayed.
C．The significance of some small moments.
D．The hopelessness of the woman with disease.
【4】What is the best title of this story?
A．A Cab Ride I’ll Never Forget
B．My Strange Driving Experience
C．The Ending of an Old Woman’s Life
D．An Old Woman Passenger and Her Life
27、High School Studio Workshops
Single museum visit, 2.5 hours Grades 9–12
These half-day art workshops include an in-depth examination and discussion of works of art in the galleries, followed by a behind-the-scenes visit to the Education Studio, where students create a related art project.

28、Mindfulness may seem like a great idea, but how do you become more mindful in a busy work day? Here are a few ways you can put mindful moments into your day so you can reduce stress and do your best.
Be consciously (有意识地) present
【1】 When you’re consciously present at work, you’re aware of two parts of your experience—what’s going on around you and what’s going on within you. Mindful work means to being consciously present in what you’re doing, while you’re doing it, as well as managing your mental and emotional state.
【2】
Mindful exercises train your brain to be more mindful. The more mindful exercises you do, the easier your brain finds it to enter a mindful state, thus optimizing your brain function. In the busy workplace, finding time for a 30-minute mindful exercise can be difficult. So does that mean you can’t be mindful at all at work? No. 【3】 Even one minute of consciously connecting with one of your senses can be thought as a mindful exercise.
Be a single-tasker
Single-tasking is doing one thing at a time. Multitasking (多任务处理) is trying to do two or more tasks at the same time or changing back and forth between tasks. Nobody can actually multitask. In reality, your brain is madly changing from one thing to the next, often losing data in the process. 【4】 If multitasking is time-wasting, why do people still do it? The reason was found in a study by Zheng Wang at Ohio State University. She tracked students and found that when they multitasked, it made them feel more productive. 【5】
A．Use short mindful exercises at work
B．Use something to remind you to be mindful
C．Mindful exercises can be as short as you wish.
D．Most people know multitasking has no effect nowadays.
E．That’s true even though in reality they were not being productive.
F．Your beliefs about stress clearly affect your health and happiness.
G．Mindfulness is, above all, about being aware and awake rather than operating unconsciously.
