9.A young and handsome executive was driving down a neighborhood street.He thought he saw something.Then he slowed down,watching out for children rushing out from between parked cars.As his car passed,no kids appeared.Instead,a brick smashed into his door!He slammed on the brakes (make his car stop).The angry driver then jumped out of his car,caught the nearest child and pushed him up against a parked car,shouting,"Who are you and what was that all about?"
The little boy was full of apology,"Please,Mister…Please,I'm sorry…I didn't know what else I could do.I threw the brick because no one else would stop."
With tears dripping down his face,the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car."It's my brother,"he said."He fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."
Now weeping,the boy asked the executive,"Would you please help me to get him back into his wheelchair?He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."
Touched beyond words,the executive tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat.He hurriedly lifted the boy back into the wheelchair,then took out his fancy handkerchief and dabbed (a light touch) at the fresh scrapes and cuts.A quick look told him everything was going to be okay."Thank you and may God bless you."The grateful child told the stranger.
Shaken up for words,the man simply watched the little boy push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home.
God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts.Sometimes when we don't have time to listen,he has to throw a brick at us.Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!

20.Jerry was a unique manager because he had several waiters who had followed him around from restaurant to restaurant.The reason the waiters followed Jerry was because of his attitude.He was a natural motivator.If an employee was having a bad day,Jerry was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.
Seeing this style really made me curious,so one day I went up to Jerry and asked him,"I don't get it!You can't be a positive person all of the time.How do you do it?"Jerry replied,"Each morning I wake up and say to myself,‘Jerry,you have two choices today.You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.'I choose to be in a good mood.Each time something bad happens,I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it.I choose to learn from it.Every time someone comes to me complaining,I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life.I choose the positive side of life.The bottom line:It's your choice how you live life."I reflected on what Jerry said.Later,I left the restaurant industry to start my own business.We lost touch,but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life.
Several years later,I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business:he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gun point by three armed robbers.While trying to open the safe,he forgot the password,nervous.The robbers panicked and shot him.Luckily,Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local hospital.After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care,Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments(碎片) of the bullets still in his body.
I saw Jerry about six months after the accident.When I asked him how he was,he replied,"The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door,"Jerry replied."Then,as I lay on the floor,I remembered that I had two choices:I could choose to live,or I could choose to die.I chose to live.""Weren't you scared?Did you lose consciousness?"I asked.Jerry continued,"The doctors and nurses were great.They kept telling me I was going to be fine.But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses,I got really scared.I knew I needed to take action."
"What did you do?"I asked."Well,there was a big,strong nurse shouting questions at me,"said Jerry."She asked if I was allergic (过敏的)to anything."Yes,"I replied.The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply.I took a deep breath and yelled,"Bullets!"Over their laughter,I told them."I am choosing to live.Operate on me as if I am alive,not dead."
Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors,but also because of his amazing attitude.I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.

4.Tom arrived at the New York airport two hours before the flight to Paris.He was wearing three shirts,a jacket,two pairs of socks,a pair of shorts,and two pairs of jeans.He was carrying one small backpack,which was very full,but he didn't have any other luggage.Tom needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight.He found Tony near the Air France counter.Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package.
"Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris.He will have a sign with your name on it.I think you can find him easily,"Tony said,"You don't have any luggage,right?"

68.Why was Tom wearing so many clothes for his travel?C
A.Because they were the uniforms for air couriers.
B.Because that made him easier to be recognized.
C.Because his backpack had no room for his clothes.
