24、

One day I got in a taxi, and we left for the airport. We were driving in the right lane (车道) when, suddenly, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stopped his car at once. The tire (轮胎) made a very loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the other car.

I was frightened. But then I couldn't believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head and started yelling at us. I couldn't believe it! But my taxi driver just smiled at the guy. So I asked, "Why did you just do that? This guy almost sent us to hospital."

This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call "The Law of the Rubbish Truck (垃圾车法则)". He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around full of rubbish, full of anger and full of bad feelings. As their rubbish piles up, they look for a place to throw it away and sometimes they'll throw it at you. Don't take it personally. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their rubbish and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.

Successful people never let rubbish trucks change their moods. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love those who love you and pray (祈祷) for those who don't.

【1】Which of the following is NOT true according to the first paragraph?

A.The writer went to the airport by taxi that day.

B.The taxi driver stopped his car in time.

C.The black car jumped out and crashed into the taxi.

D.A car accident nearly happened on the writer's way to the airport.

【2】What is the meaning of the underlined word “rubbish” in the passage?

A.Litter. B.Bad feelings.

C.Smile. D.Things that you throw away because you no longer want or need them.

【3】Why did the guy get angry so easily?

A.Because he was in a bad mood.

B.Because his car was full of rubbish.

C.Because he was badly hurt by the taxi.

D.Because the taxi driver didn't say sorry to him.

【4】What should you do when you meet “rubbish trucks” according to the third paragraph?

A.Take it personally. B.Spread it to other people.

C.Smile at them and pray them well. D.Look for a place to throw it away.

【5】From the passage, we can learn that the taxi driver is ________.

A.silly and dishonest B.wise and friendly

C.helpful but nervous D.modest but impatient

25、Dear Teens,

①Do you wonder why some kids can stay calm while others get nervous so easily? Why do some kids do everything very quickly while others are very sluggish? Why are some kids always happy while some feel upset all times?

②One of the answers to these questions is personality(个性). People were born with different personalities. A baby gets its blood type, genes(基因) and other physical things when it is still inside its mother. These factors(因素) make part of your personality. Besides, family life, school learning and life experiences can also decide what kind of person you are. You may not like your personality. Don't worry. You can always try to change it and make yourself better.

③If you are a selfish person who always thinks of yourself, you can start this way. Try to give others a hand and ask for nothing in return. The happiness you get from giving instead of receiving will help you change your personality.

④If you are very shy and don't know how to make friends, just tell yourself to smile at others and start talking to others with warm greetings. You are sure to have more friends than you used to do.

⑤If you are sluggish person who always does things slowly, you' d better make a plan every day. When you finish something, draw a happy face. If not, draw a crying one. No one would like to see a crying face and you will have the desire to change it into a smiling one.

⑥All in all, don't get too worried about your shortcomings (缺点). No one is perfect. That's why many people are trying to change. Don't give yourself a hard time about it all. It's not easy to change the habits overnight. Remember "Rome is not built in a day". Keep working at it. One day you'll see that you can turn over a new leaf and be a new person.
