【题目】Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school , I was driving to my parents' home in Missouri for ChristmasI stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas

I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my carI stopped and wondered what I should doA car pulled up behind meIt was the couple. They said they would take meWe chatted and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business cardI wrote them a thank-you noteSoon afterward, I received a Christmas present from themTheir note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful

Years later, I drove to a meeting in the morningIn late afternoon I found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery was deadThen I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership was right next doorI walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom

"Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and explained my troubleThey quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started itThey would accept no payment, so later, I wrote them a note to say thanksI received a letter back from one of the salesmenNo one had ever written him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said

"Thank you" - two powerful wordsThey're easy to say and mean so much

【题目】Attempt a guess at the following question: In the English-speaking world, which country has the least affordable homes? You are wrong if you guessed the US, even with the housing bubble (气泡) and main sadness. Nor is it the UK, where prices have risen because demand is far from supply. According to a recent survey of 227 cities around the globe, you must go south of the equator (赤道) to Australia to find the priciest homes.

The report measured a city’s housing market along the following guidelines. An “affordable” home required three times or less of the average family’s income to purchase. At four times earnings, a home fell into the “unaffordable” category. And a “seriously unaffordable” home needed five times a family’s income. In Australia, homes in the least affordable city cost just about 9.5 times the average income. Sydney, Perth, and Melbourne were only a little under this figure.

Australian officials offered little comment, apart from a general statement on the dismal findings. These prices make the possibility that many Australians will one day own a home largely unbelievable. Land rationing (配给制) and excessive development charges have raised prices, and the problem will only be solved through urgent action by the Rudd government.

Some American cities were also included on the least affordable list, four of which were in California. America is still involved in a mortgage(抵押)crisis, though, affecting the affordability of homes. Yet a number of US cities garnered “affordable” status, namely Dallas and Kansas. Australia had no cities listed in the top fifty places with affordable homes.

The survey suggests that you can find affordable homes in most places, just not if you’re Australian and choose to live down under.

【2】What caused the prices of houses to increase in Australia?

D.The decrease of land.
