here
tomorrow
morning

in

you
get
separated
from
the
rest
of
the
group,warm
waterproof
clothes
and
gloves
and
a
good
pair
of
boots.Don’t
forget
the
maps
I
gave
you.I’d
rather
you
didn’t
bring
large
cameras
and
video
cameras.
Now,it’s
time
that
we
had
dinner
now.If
anyone
has
any

B
When
I
was
five
or
six
years
old,I
remember
watching
TV
and
seeing
other
children
suffer
in
other
parts
of
the
world.I
would
say
to
myself,“When
I
grow
up,when
I
can
get
rich,I
will
save
kids
all
over
the
world.”
At
17,I
started
my
career
here
in
America,and
by
the
age
of
18,I
started
my
first
charity
organisation.I
went
on
to
team
up
with
other
organisations
in
the
following
years,and
met,helped,and
even
lost
some
of
the
most
beautiful
souls,from
six-year-old
Jasmina
Anema
who
passed
away
in
2010
from
leukemia
(白血病),whose
story
inspired
thousands
of
people
to
volunteer
as
donors,to
my
grandmother,who
lost
her
battle
with
cancer
in
2012,which
is
the
very
reason
and
the
driving
force
behind
the
Clara
Lionel
Foundation(CLF).We’re
all
human.And
we
all
just
want
a
chance:
a
chance
at
life,a
chance
in
education,a
chance
at
a
future,really.And
at
CLF,our
mission
is
to
impact
as
many
lives
as
possible,but
it
starts
with
just
one.
People
make
it
seem
too
hard
to
do
charity
work.The
truth
is,you
don’t
have
to
be
rich
to
help
others.You
don’t
need
to
be
famous.You
don’t
even
have
to
be
college-educated.But
it
starts
with
your
neighbour,the
person
right
next
to
you,the
person
sitting
next
to
you
in
class,the
kid
down
the
block
in
your
neighbourhood.You
just
do
whatever
you
can
to
help
in
any
way
that
you
can.And
today,I
want
to
challenge
each
of
you
to
make
a
commitment
to
help
one
person,one
organisation,one
situation
that
touches
your
heart.My
grandmother
always
used
to
say,“If
you’ve
got
a
dollar,there’s
plenty
to
share.”
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。慈善无关贫富,无关名誉,无关教育背景;从帮助身边的人做起,成就自己的事业。
24.What
did
the
author
want
to
do
at
a
young
age?
A.Watch
TV.
B.Grow
up
quickly.
C.Become
wealthy.
D.Help
other
children.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Iwouldsaytomyself,‘WhenIgrowup,whenIcangetrich,Iwillsavekidsallovertheworld.’”可知,作者小时候在电视中看到受苦的孩子,想要在长大后帮助他们,故选D项。
25.What
directly
caused
the
author
to
create
and
develop
the
CLF?
A.A
six-year-old
kid’s
request.
B.Her
grandmother’s
death
of
cancer.
C.Many
volunteers’
inspiration.
D.Other
organisations’
encouragement.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据第二段中“...tomygrandmother,wholostherbattlewithcancerin2012,whichistheveryreasonandthedrivingforcebehindtheClaraLionelFoundation(CLF)”可知,在2012年,祖母因病去世,这促使作者成立了克拉拉·莱昂内尔基金会(CLF)。
26.What
does
the
underlined
word
“one”
in
Paragraph
2
refer
to?
A.A
chance.
B.A
task.
C.A
life.
D.An
organisation.
答案C
解析代词指代题。根据第二段的最后一句“AndatCLF,ourmissionistoimpactasmanylivesaspossible,butitstartswithjustone”可知,在克拉拉·莱昂内尔基金会中作者的任务是尽可能影响更多的生命,但这个任务从影响一个人的生命开始。根据该句中的“asmanylivesaspossible”并结合“butitstartswithjustone”可知,画线词one指代“alife”。
27.What
does
the
author
suggest
people
do
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.Do
little
things
to
help
those
around
them.
B.Work
hard
to
get
a
college
education.
C.Challenge
their
friends
to
offer
help.
D.Do
charity
work
whatever
you
are.
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Butitstartswithyourneighbour,thepersonrightnexttoyou,thepersonsittingnexttoyouinclass,thekiddowntheblockinyourneighbourhood”可知,作者建议帮助他人要从帮助身边的人做起。
C
Meeting
people
from
another
culture
can
be
difficult.From
the
beginning,people
may
send
the
wrong
signal.Or
they
may
pay
no
attention
to
signals
from
another
person
who
is
trying
to
develop
a
relationship.
Different
cultures
emphasize
the
importance
of
relationship
building
to
a
greater
or
lesser
degree.For
example,business
in
some
countries
is
not
possible
until
there
is
a
relationship
of
trust.Even
with
people
at
work,it
is
necessary
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
“small
talk”,usually
over
a
cup
of
tea,before
they
do
any
job.In
many
European
countries—like
the
UK
or
France—people
find
it
easier
to
build
up
a
lasting
working
relationship
at
restaurants
or
cafés
rather
than
at
the
office.
Talk
and
silence
may
also
be
different
in
some
cultures.I
once
made
a
speech
in
Thailand.I
had
expected
my
speech
to
be
a
success
and
start
a
lively
discussion;instead,there
was
an
uncomfortable
silence.The
people
present
just
stared
at
me
and
smiled.After
getting
to
know
their
ways
better,I
realised
that
they
thought
I
was
talking
too
much.In
my
own
culture,we
express
meaning
mainly
through
words,but
people
there
sometimes
feel
too
many
words
are
unnecessary.
Even
within
Northern
Europe,cultural
differences
can
cause
serious
problems.Certainly,English
and
German
cultures
share
similar
values;however,Germans
prefer
to
get
down
to
business
more
quickly.We
think
that
they
are
rude.In
fact,this
is
just
because
the
culture
starts
discussions
and
makes
decisions
more
quickly.
People
from
different
parts
of
the
world
have
different
values,and
sometimes
these
values
are
quite
against
each
other.However,if
we
can
understand
them
better,a
multicultural
environment
will
offer
a
wonderful
chance
for
us
to
learn
from
each
other.

28.What
will
people
feel
easier
to
do
by
eating
together
at
restaurants
in
some
countries?
A.Developing
closer
relations.
B.Sharing
the
same
culture.
C.Getting
to
know
each
other.
D.Keeping
each
other
company.
答案A
解析细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句中的“peoplefinditeasiertobuildupalastingworkingrelationshipatrestaurantsorcafésratherthanattheoffice”可知在餐馆通过吃饭可以发展“亲密”关系。故答案为A项。
29.What
does
the
author
want
to
show
when
mentioning
his
experience
in
Thailand?
A.The
English
prefer
to
make
long
speeches.
B.Too
many
words
are
of
no
use.
C.People
from
Thailand
are
quiet
and
shy
by
nature.
D.Even
talk

D
The
hit
movie
NottingHill
begins
with
a
famous
scene.Hugh
Grant
knocks
into
Julia
Roberts
and
spills
orange
juice
all
over
her.After
it
happened,Grant
repeatedly
says,“I’m
so
sorry.I’m
so
sorry.”
His
actions
in
this
scene
are
very
British.If
Roberts’
character
were
from
Britain,then
she
would
probably
apologise
repeatedly
as
well—even
if
it
were
not
her
fault.But
this
doesn’t
happen
in
the
movie,as
Roberts
is
from
the
US.
A
report
in
TheTelegraph
once
said
that
three
quarters
of
British
people
apologise
when
they
ran
into
someone
in
the
street—regardless
of
whether
they
are
responsible
or
not.In
fact,the
British
use
“sorry”
in
many
situations.For
example,if
they
mishear
someone,they
say
“Sorry?”
The
person
they
are
talking
to
will
also
apologise
by
replying,“No,I
am
sorry!”
This
can
go
on
for
up
to
five
minutes
as
they
compete
for
who
is
the
most
sorry.
Why
are
the
British
so
sorry?Mark
Tyrrell,a
psychology
writer
in
the
UK,thinks
that
their
apologetic
tendencies
are
rooted
in
the
British
class
system.“We
say
sorry
because
historically
the
new
middle
class
in
Britain
had
to
apologise
for
not
being
the
working
class,but
also
for
not
really
being
the
upper
class.”
Another
theory
is
that
they
apologise
to
avoid
conflicts.For
example,if
they
bump
into
someone,he
might
get
angry.To
avoid
this,they
instantly
say
“Sorry!”
True
manners
are
about
being
considerate,and
today’s
constant
use
of
apologising
shows
that
we
are
perhaps
not
as
thoughtful
as
we
once
were.The
word
“sorry”
has
lost
some
of
its
meaning.Do
you
see
my
point?Sorry,it
might
just
be
a
British
thing.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了英国人的道歉文化及其原因:一是因为历史上英国的新中产阶级;二是为了避免冲突。
32.Why
does
the
author
mention
a
scene
in
the
movie
NottingHill
at
the
beginning?
A.To
give
an
example
of
British
modesty.
B.To
introduce
different
ways
of
saying
sorry.
C.To
show
what
kind
of
men
are
considered
gentlemen
in
the
UK.
D.To
draw
our
attention
to
when
and
how
British
people
say
sorry.
答案D
解析推理判断题。根据第一段的描述可知,文章开头以电影为例,描述了英国人道歉的场景,引出文章的主题——英国的道歉文化。
33.Which
of
the
following
statements
might
Mark
Tyrrell
agree
with?
A.People
should
not
apologise
if
they
are
not
responsible.
B.Americans
care
less
about
manners
than
British
people
do.
C.That
British
people
apologise
so
much
is
linked
to
the
class
system.
D.British
people
care
too
much
about
which
social
class
they
are
from.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据第四段中的“MarkTyrrell...thinksthattheirapologetictendenciesarerootedintheBritishclasssystem.”可知,MarkTyrrell认为英国人的道歉根源于其阶级制度。由此可推断,C项正确。
34.What
can
be
inferred
from
the
passage?
A.It’s
unnecessary
for
British
people
to
be
so
polite.
B.The
overuse
of
apologising
shows
Britons
are
truly
sincere.
C.People
should
give
up
the
traditional
use
of
the
word
“sorry”.
D.Using
“sorry”
more
doesn’t
necessarily
mean
people
are
more
polite.
答案D
解析推理判断题。根据第四段的内容以及最后一段中的“today’sconstantuseofapologisingshowsthatweareperhapsnotasthoughtfulasweoncewere.”可知,英国人道歉或是与他们的阶级制度有关,或是为了避免冲突,今天的多次道歉也并不意味着人们更有礼貌。
35.What
is
the
author’s
purpose
in
writing
this
passage?
A.To
explore
the
best
way
of
saying
sorry.
B.To
explain
why
the
British
overuse
the
word
“sorry”.
C.To
show
how
saying
sorry
has
changed
over
time.
D.To
suggest
many
British
people
lack
traditional
manners.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据全文内容可知,本文由电影场景引入主题,介绍了英国的道歉文化,并介绍了英国人道歉的原因及今天道歉的意义,主要目的是介绍英国人过量道歉的原因。

【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了和陌生人交谈的技巧。如:介绍自己;开始交谈;继续交谈和结束交谈等。
36.F 本部分的小标题为“介绍自己”。根据前面的“说清楚你的名字”可知,F项“解释你是谁,为什么想交谈”符合语境。

Recently,I
was
diagnosed
(诊断)
with
an
incurable
illness.And
after
that,I
gave
up
41 .Although
I
was
able
to
pass
my
test
last
year,I
stopped
42
when
I
turned
90.I
thought
that
it
was
finally
the
right
time.?
Needless
to
say,my
family
and
my
doctor
were
43
to
hear
my
decision.As
I
handed
over
the
keys
of
the
car
to
my
son,I
thought
of
all
the
cars
my
wife
and
I
had
44
over
the
years.A
car
is
45 ,independence,and
an
extension
of
your
personality.Without
one,you
feel
like
less
of
a
person.Now,my
son
often
drives
me
to
the
city
centre
and
my
neighbours
also
offer
me
46
when
I’m
on
the
way
to
the
market.But
after
a
lifetime
of
independence,the
idea
of
being
dependent
47
other
people
is
hard
to
48 .With
my
own
car,I
could
go
anywhere
in
no
time.But
now,my
horizons
(眼界)
have
49
and
I
must
plan
ahead
for
everything.Luckily,I’ve
learned
to
face
it
and
change
and
I
found
a(n)
50
to
some
of
those
problems.Last
year,I
51
to
buy
a
nice
new
four-wheel
electric
scooter(轻便摩托车),which
made
my
route
free
from
52
and
noise,with
trees
and
green
plants
53
cars
and
street
signs.?
Giving
up
something
is
hard,and
some
of
us
never
accept
the
loss.For
me,however,it
was
just
the
54
of
a
long
and
lucky
life.Life
in
the
slow
lane
(车道)
turned
out
to
be
so
much
fun
and
so
much
55 .?

答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了机器人割草机的优点。
56.designed 考查非谓语动词。设空处作后置定语修饰robotlawnmowers,design与robotlawnmowers之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,且design所表示的动作已发生,故填designed。
57.being 考查非谓语动词。此处是with复合结构作状语,因globalwarming与be之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,且be所表示的状态与谓语动词所表示的状态同时存在,故填being。
58.quietly 考查副词。设空处修饰谓语动词work,故填副词quietly。
59.was
found 考查语态。由Aftercarefulassessment可知,此处用一般过去时,又因noise与find之间是被动关系,故填wasfound。
60.to
return 考查非谓语动词。warnsb/sthtodosth意为“提醒某人/某物做某事”。
61.the 考查冠词。ontheotherhand意为“另一方面”。
62.or/otherwise 考查连词。设空处连接两个分句,表示“否则,要不然”,故填or/otherwise。
63.that/which 考查定语从句。设空处引导限制性定语从句修饰先行词items,且在从句中作主语,故填that/which。
64.beneficial 考查形容词。设空处作表语,意为“有益的,有帮助的”,故填beneficial。
65.in 考查介词。incomfort意为“舒适地”。

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I
always
wondered
how
people
would
react
if
I
tried
to
approach
a
total
stranger
for
help
in
a
busy
place
like
a
street
corner
or
in
a
bustling
mall.I
personally
have
always
hurried
past
a
stranger
who
tried
to
catch
my
attention
in
a
busy
place
or
when
I
am
rushing
around.
Yesterday
I
had
a
taste
of
being
stuck
in
such
a
desperate
situation
where
my
only
hope
of
help
would
have
to
come
from
a
total
stranger.
I
was
in
a
busy
shopping
mall
buying
a
large
piece
of
luggage.After
the
purchase
in
one
of
the
large,fancy,expensive
shops,I
picked
up
my
phone
from
my
pocket
to
call
my
driver
waiting
in
the
parking
lot
and
my
phone
was
dead.
I
then
requested
the
shop
assistant
who
had
just
sold
me
the
luggage,which
was
not
cheap
at
all,if
she
could
ring
the
number
of
my
driver
for
me.She
replied,still
all
smiles,“I’m
sorry
sir,but
it
is
the
shop
policy
that
we
cannot
use
mobile
phones
while
working
in
the
shop.”
As
I
was
wondering
what
kind
of
policy
that
was,I
saw
a
nice-looking
teenage
boy
coming
toward
me.Remembering
my
wife’s
interesting
theory
that
beautiful
people
are
more
likely
to
give
you
a
hand
when
you’re
in
trouble,I
thought
I
might
have
a
chance.But
before
I
could
say
a
word,he
walked
past
me.It
turned
out
he
simply
didn’t
see
me.
I
waited
a
bit
longer
in
the
mall
but
it
seemed
nobody
bothered
to
look
at
me.Disappointed
and
tired,I
got
out
of
the
shop
onto
the
busy
street
in
front.I
stood
there
with
people
rushing
by,looking
at
their
faces
to
see
if
there
was
a
sign
of
kindness
on
their
face.I
began
wondering
how
many
times
I
had
reacted
to
strangers
like
the
shop
girl
and
the
teenager.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
At
that
point
I
saw
a
young
mother
with
her
two
kids.?
?

?
Finally,a
man
wearing
a
cheap
T-shirt
and
dirty
jeans
seemed
to
notice
me.?

disfigured
by
frowns
and
what
I
heard
was
a
sound
of
dismay
and
suspicion
under
her
breath.Without
a
word,she
pulled
her
kids
to
escape
from
me,as
if
scared
by
a
murderer.I
stood
there,motionless,with
a
blank
face
and
a
sinking
heart.
Finally,amanwearingacheapT-shirtanddirtyjeansseemedtonoticeme.I
squeezed
a
smile
though
it
failed
to
mask
my
weariness,and
requested
him
the
same
thing.Unexpectedly,he
took
out
his
mobile
phone
for
me
without
hesitation
or
any
probing
questions.Dancing
in
his
eyes
was
the
real
kindness
that
I
had
been
struggling
to
seek
for
so
long.From
that
day
on,I
began
helping
other
strangers
in
distress,just
like
the
poor-looking
but
kind
man,with
the
aim
of
passing
kindness
and
melting
the
ice
in
many
people’s
hearts.第四单元测评

B
When
I
was
five
or
six
years
old,I
remember
watching
TV
and
seeing
other
children
suffer
in
other
parts
of
the
world.I
would
say
to
myself,“When
I
grow
up,when
I
can
get
rich,I
will
save
kids
all
over
the
world.”
At
17,I
started
my
career
here
in
America,and
by
the
age
of
18,I
started
my
first
charity
organisation.I
went
on
to
team
up
with
other
organisations
in
the
following
years,and
met,helped,and
even
lost
some
of
the
most
beautiful
souls,from
six-year-old
Jasmina
Anema
who
passed
away
in
2010
from
leukemia
(白血病),whose
story
inspired
thousands
of
people
to
volunteer
as
donors,to
my
grandmother,who
lost
her
battle
with
cancer
in
2012,which
is
the
very
reason
and
the
driving
force
behind
the
Clara
Lionel
Foundation(CLF).We’re
all
human.And
we
all
just
want
a
chance:
a
chance
at
life,a
chance
in
education,a
chance
at
a
future,really.And
at
CLF,our
mission
is
to
impact
as
many
lives
as
possible,but
it
starts
with
just
one.
People
make
it
seem
too
hard
to
do
charity
work.The
truth
is,you
don’t
have
to
be
rich
to
help
others.You
don’t
need
to
be
famous.You
don’t
even
have
to
be
college-educated.But
it
starts
with
your
neighbour,the
person
right
next
to
you,the
person
sitting
next
to
you
in
class,the
kid
down
the
block
in
your
neighbourhood.You
just
do
whatever
you
can
to
help
in
any
way
that
you
can.And
today,I
want
to
challenge
each
of
you
to
make
a
commitment
to
help
one
person,one
organisation,one
situation
that
touches
your
heart.My
grandmother
always
used
to
say,“If
you’ve
got
a
dollar,there’s
plenty
to
share.”

24.What
did
the
author
want
to
do
at
a
young
age?
A.Watch
TV.
B.Grow
up
quickly.
C.Become
wealthy.
D.Help
other
children.
25.What
directly
caused
the
author
to
create
and
develop
the
CLF?
A.A
six-year-old
kid’s
request.
B.Her
grandmother’s
death
of
cancer.
C.Many
volunteers’
inspiration.
D.Other
organisations’
encouragement.
26.What
does
the
underlined
word
“one”
in
Paragraph
2
refer
to?
A.A
chance.
B.A
task.
C.A
life.
D.An
organisation.
27.What
does
the
author
suggest
people
do
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.Do
little
things
to
help
those
around
them.
B.Work
hard
to
get
a
college
education.
C.Challenge
their
friends
to
offer
help.
D.Do
charity
work
whatever
you
are.
C
Meeting
people
from
another
culture
can
be
difficult.From
the
beginning,people
may
send
the
wrong
signal.Or
they
may
pay
no
attention
to
signals
from
another
person
who
is
trying
to
develop
a
relationship.
Different
cultures
emphasize
the
importance
of
relationship
building
to
a
greater
or
lesser
degree.For
example,business
in
some
countries
is
not
possible
until
there
is
a
relationship
of
trust.Even
with
people
at
work,it
is
necessary
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
“small
talk”,usually
over
a
cup
of
tea,before
they
do
any
job.In
many
European
countries—like
the
UK
or
France—people
find
it
easier
to
build
up
a
lasting
working
relationship
at
restaurants
or
cafés
rather
than
at
the
office.
Talk
and
silence
may
also
be
different
in
some
cultures.I
once
made
a
speech
in
Thailand.I
had
expected
my
speech
to
be
a
success
and
start
a
lively
discussion;instead,there
was
an
uncomfortable
silence.The
people
present
just
stared
at
me
and
smiled.After
getting
to
know
their
ways
better,I
realised
that
they
thought
I
was
talking
too
much.In
my
own
culture,we
express
meaning
mainly
through
words,but
people
there
sometimes
feel
too
many
words
are
unnecessary.
Even
within
Northern
Europe,cultural
differences
can
cause
serious
problems.Certainly,English
and
German
cultures
share
similar
values;however,Germans
prefer
to
get
down
to
business
more
quickly.We
think
that
they
are
rude.In
fact,this
is
just
because
the
culture
starts
discussions
and
makes
decisions
more
quickly.
People
from
different
parts
of
the
world
have
different
values,and
sometimes
these
values
are
quite
against
each
other.However,if
we
can
understand
them
better,a
multicultural
environment
will
offer
a
wonderful
chance
for
us
to
learn
from
each
other.

scene.Hugh
Grant
knocks
into
Julia
Roberts
and
spills
orange
juice
all
over
her.After
it
happened,Grant
repeatedly
says,“I’m
so
sorry.I’m
so
sorry.”
His
actions
in
this
scene
are
very
British.If
Roberts’
character
were
from
Britain,then
she
would
probably
apologise
repeatedly
as
well—even
if
it
were
not
her
fault.But
this
doesn’t
happen
in
the
movie,as
Roberts
is
from
the
US.
A
report
in
TheTelegraph
once
said
that
three
quarters
of
British
people
apologise
when
they
ran
into
someone
in
the
street—regardless
of
whether
they
are
responsible
or
not.In
fact,the
British
use
“sorry”
in
many
situations.For
example,if
they
mishear
someone,they
say
“Sorry?”
The
person
they
are
talking
to
will
also
apologise
by
replying,“No,I
am
sorry!”
This
can
go
on
for
up
to
five
minutes
as
they
compete
for
who
is
the
most
sorry.
Why
are
the
British
so
sorry?Mark
Tyrrell,a
psychology
writer
in
the
UK,thinks
that
their
apologetic
tendencies
are
rooted
in
the
British
class
system.“We
say
sorry
because
historically
the
new
middle
class
in
Britain
had
to
apologise
for
not
being
the
working
class,but
also
for
not
really
being
the
upper
class.”
Another
theory
is
that
they
apologise
to
avoid
conflicts.For
example,if
they
bump
into
someone,he
might
get
angry.To
avoid
this,they
instantly
say
“Sorry!”
True
manners
are
about
being
considerate,and
today’s
constant
use
of
apologising
shows
that
we
are
perhaps
not
as
thoughtful
as
we
once
were.The
word
“sorry”
has
lost
some
of
its
meaning.Do
you
see
my
point?Sorry,it
might
just
be
a
British
thing.

Recently,I
was
diagnosed
(诊断)
with
an
incurable
illness.And
after
that,I
gave
up
41 .Although
I
was
able
to
pass
my
test
last
year,I
stopped
42
when
I
turned
90.I
thought
that
it
was
finally
the
right
time.?
Needless
to
say,my
family
and
my
doctor
were
43
to
hear
my
decision.As
I
handed
over
the
keys
of
the
car
to
my
son,I
thought
of
all
the
cars
my
wife
and
I
had
44
over
the
years.A
car
is
45 ,independence,and
an
extension
of
your
personality.Without
one,you
feel
like
less
of
a
person.Now,my
son
often
drives
me
to
the
city
centre
and
my
neighbours
also
offer
me
46
when
I’m
on
the
way

the
market.But
after
a
lifetime
of
independence,the
idea
of
being
dependent

people
is
hard

48 .With
my
own
car,I
could
go
anywhere
in
no
time.But
now,my
horizons
(眼界)
have

and
I
must
plan
ahead
for
everything.Luckily,I’ve
learned
to
face
it
and
change
and
I
found

made
my
route
free
from

and
green
plants
53
cars
and
street
signs.?
Giving
up
something
is
hard,and
some
of
us
never
accept
the
loss.For
me,however,it
was
just
the

of
a
long

lucky

I
always
wondered
how
people
would
react
if
I
tried
to
approach
a
total
stranger
for
help
in
a
busy
place
like
a
street
corner
or
in
a
bustling
mall.I
personally
have
always
hurried
past
a
stranger
who
tried
to
catch
my
attention
in
a
busy
place
or
when
I
am
rushing
around.
Yesterday
I
had
a
taste
of
being
stuck
in
such
a
desperate
situation
where
my
only
hope
of
help
would
have
to
come
from
a
total
stranger.
I
was
in
a
busy
shopping
mall
buying
a
large
piece
of
luggage.After
the
purchase
in
one
of
the
large,fancy,expensive
shops,I
picked
up
my
phone
from
my
pocket
to
call
my
driver
waiting
in
the
parking
lot
and
my
phone
was
dead.
I
then
requested
the
shop
assistant
who
had
just
sold
me
the
luggage,which
was
not
cheap
at
all,if
she
could
ring
the
number
of
my
driver
for
me.She
replied,still
all
smiles,“I’m
sorry
sir,but
it
is
the
shop
policy
that
we
cannot
use
mobile
phones
while
working
in
the
shop.”
As
I
was
wondering
what
kind
of
policy
that
was,I
saw
a
nice-looking
teenage
boy
coming
toward
me.Remembering
my
wife’s
interesting
theory
that
beautiful
people
are
more
likely
to
give
you
a
hand
when
you’re
in
trouble,I
thought
I
might
have
a
chance.But
before
I
could
say
a
word,he
walked
past
me.It
turned
out
he
simply
didn’t
see
me.
I
waited
a
bit
longer
in
the
mall
but
it
seemed
nobody
bothered
to
look
at
me.Disappointed
and
tired,I
got
out
of
the
shop
onto
the
busy
street
in
front.I
stood
there
with
people
rushing
by,looking
at
their
faces
to
see
if
there
was
a
sign
of
kindness
on
their
face.I
began
wondering
how
many
times
I
had
reacted
to
strangers
like
the
shop
girl
and
the
teenager.
