How much do you hate waiting for another beer in a crowded bar? Josh Goodman invented a pretty obvious solution —self-service beer taps.?Goodman, 36, recalled the exact moment in late 2008 when his frustration?boiled over.?"I was hanging out with my friends at a Baltimore sports bar before an Orioles(金莺队) game," he said. "We just couldn't get another beer served to us quickly."
Even more than annoyed, Goodman was struck by how much money the bar must be losing. Almost immediately, he got to work on a self-service beer concept.?Within a few months, Goodman had launched Pour My Beer in Chicago (where he'd relocated to be with his wife).
He invested (投资)$20,000 of his own funds and partnered with a U.S. manufacturer to make beer tables with two to four self-service taps.?In February 2009, Goodman landed his first client(客户): A Baltimore tavern. He spent the next two years growing the business and adding more bars and restaurants.?In 2011, Pour My Beer introduced self-service "beer walls," which let people pour their own beer from taps on a wall.
Pour My Beer has expanded to over 200 restaurants and bars in 28 states and Canada. The concept will roll out in Chicago's O'Hare International Airport this week and in Italy and Brazil later this year.?The tables start at $4,000 and the beer walls cost as much as $16,000. It generated more than $400,000 in sales in 2013 and doubled that in 2014. Goodman expects to take in close to $2 million in revenue this year(2015) —which would make it the company's first profitable(赚钱的)year.?"Our business customers tell us that they've cut down on waste and they're selling twice as much beer on average," said Goodman.

Mark felt that it was time for him, to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work. The area’s city councilwoman (女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems.
Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There are charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant buildings. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman.
It was too much for Mark. “The problems are too big,” he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, “I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here.”
Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. “People should just take care of themselves,” he decided. “That’s enough to do. I can’t take on all the problems of the world.”
As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn’t have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and the groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boy’s arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. ‘‘Thanks!” she said. “You’ve got great timing!”
“Just being neighborly,” Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus. On one of them was “Small acts of kindness add up.” Mark smiled and thought, “Maybe that’s a good place to start.”

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。Mark起初认为自己的力量太小了，对于社会中的大问题不会起到什么作用。但是后来他意识到，如果每个人都做些小的善行，累加起来，就会对整个社会有很大影响。
7. B【解析】句意理解题。最后一段中的“Small acts of kindness add up”意为“小的善行会累加起来”，这句话 暗示了虽然一个小的善行并不起眼，但是多个小的善行累加起来就会有很大作用，因此每个人都应发 挥自己的作用以让社会变得更美好。故选B。
8. A【解析】主旨大意题。根据本文的内容可判断出，本文主要讲述的是：Mark起初认为自己的力量太小 了，对于社会中的大问题不会起到什么作用。但是后来他意识到，如果每个人都做些小的善行，累加 起来，就会对整个社会有很大影响。A项体现了这个故事的核心，故选A。

How much do you hate waiting for another beer in a crowded bar? Josh Goodman invented a pretty obvious solution —self-service beer taps.?Goodman, 36, recalled the exact moment in late 2008 when his frustration?boiled over.?"I was hanging out with my friends at a Baltimore sports bar before an Orioles(金莺队) game," he said. "We just couldn't get another beer served to us quickly."
Even more than annoyed, Goodman was struck by how much money the bar must be losing. Almost immediately, he got to work on a self-service beer concept.?Within a few months, Goodman had launched Pour My Beer in Chicago (where he'd relocated to be with his wife).
He invested (投资)$20,000 of his own funds and partnered with a U.S. manufacturer to make beer tables with two to four self-service taps.?In February 2009, Goodman landed his first client(客户): A Baltimore tavern. He spent the next two years growing the business and adding more bars and restaurants.?In 2011, Pour My Beer introduced self-service "beer walls," which let people pour their own beer from taps on a wall.
Pour My Beer has expanded to over 200 restaurants and bars in 28 states and Canada. The concept will roll out in Chicago's O'Hare International Airport this week and in Italy and Brazil later this year.?The tables start at $4,000 and the beer walls cost as much as $16,000. It generated more than $400,000 in sales in 2013 and doubled that in 2014. Goodman expects to take in close to $2 million in revenue this year(2015) —which would make it the company's first profitable(赚钱的)year.?"Our business customers tell us that they've cut down on waste and they're selling twice as much beer on average," said Goodman.

Mark felt that it was time for him, to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work. The area’s city councilwoman (女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems.
Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There are charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant buildings. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman.
It was too much for Mark. “The problems are too big,” he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, “I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here.”
Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. “People should just take care of themselves,” he decided. “That’s enough to do. I can’t take on all the problems of the world.”
As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn’t have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and the groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boy’s arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. ‘‘Thanks!” she said. “You’ve got great timing!”
“Just being neighborly,” Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus. On one of them was “Small acts of kindness add up.” Mark smiled and thought, “Maybe that’s a good place to start.”
