Compassion(同情，怜悯) is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate compassion into actions. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and it’s not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register（收款机）with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash (现金), had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day.

I couldn’t help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job.

Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable. “Change it to me, ” was all he said.

What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.

1.The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits_________ .

A．hoped to have the food first and pay later

B．promised to obey the store rules

C．forgot to take any money with him

D．could not afford anything more expensive

2.Which of the following best describes the old gentleman?

A．kind and lucky B．friendly and helpful

C．poor and lonely D．hurt and disappointed

3.The writer acted according to the store rules because_________ .

A．he felt no pity for the old gentleman

B．he considered the old man dishonest

C．he expected someone else to pay for the old man

D．he wanted to keep his present job

4.What does the writer learn from his experience?

A．Wealth is more important than anything else

B．Experience is better gained through practice

C．Obeying the rules means more than compassion.

D．Helping others is easier said than done

When 12-year-old Taylor Smith wrote a special letter to herself last spring, to be read in 10 years’ time, she didn’t know it would be opened before even a year had passed— and that it wouldn’t be her eyes reading the words.

“She had told me that she had written a letter to herself, and that she was excited that she was going to open it when she was older,”said Taylor’s mother, Mary Ellen Smith.

Instead, it was opened by Taylor’s parents after she died last spring. They posted the letter to Facebook, hoping it would inspire others.

It has. “We’ve gotten letters from lots of parents who have said it has encouraged them to love their kids and love each other,” said Mary Ellen Smith.

In the letter, Taylor congratulated herself on graduating from high school and asked, “Are you in college?”

She also wanted to know if she had been on a plane yet and if the show “Doctor Who” was still on the air.

Taylor also had some words for her future kids. After considering the idea of selling her iPad and getting an iPad mini instead, she told her future self to mention to her kids that “We’re older than the tablet.” She included a drawing of an iPad for them to see.

Taylor died suddenly of pneumonia (肺炎), leaving behind both her parents and an older brother.

“I just want people to know just what an awesome, awesome person she was,” her father, Tim Smith said.

Her mother said, “I can’t bring her back, but I’m so grateful people have been inspired by her story.”

Taylor’s father read the closing words of her letter, which said, “It’s been years since I wrote this. Stuff has happened, good and bad. That’s just how life works, and you have to go with it.”

1.Taylor Smith decided to open her letter when she was ________.

A. 18 years old B. 20 years old

C. 22 years old D. 24 years old

2.Why did Taylor’s parents post her letter to Facebook?

A. To show Taylor Smith’s deep love for her parents.

B. To encourage parents and kids to love each other.

C. To make themselves well-known and make money.

D. To prove Taylor Smith was good at writing.

3.We can learn from the passage that Taylor Smith ________.

A. was a college student

B. had never got an iPad

C. had never taken a plane

D. wanted to join “Doctor Who”.

4.What is the message conveyed at the end of Taylor Smith’s letter?

A. We should develop the habit of keeping a diary.

B. We should accept everything that happens in life.

C. We should stop bad things from happening.

D. We should show our love for our parents in time.

Good health is the most valuable thing in the world. When you’ve got it, you never think about it. When you haven’t got it, you think about it all the time. Our biggest enemies are not terrible diseases and so on. We are our own biggest enemies because we sometimes destroy our own good health. Some of us eat too much, drink too much and smoke too much. And though our reason tells us we should control ourselves, we find it difficult. The fact is that most human beings need stimulation (刺激). Who doesn’t enjoy a drink after a busy day? Only a smoker knows the pleasure of a cigarette with a cup of coffee.

The danger is when these innocent pleasures run our lives and so destroy our health. When you find yourself eating between meals or eating too much rich food, when you can only keep yourself going by taking frequent (频繁的) drinks or by smoking one cigarette after another, then it’s time to stop and think what you might be doing to yourself. The funny thing is that when we don’t control ourselves, simple pleasures are no longer simple pleasures.

All right, I know what you’re thinking. You’re probably saying, “It’s easy to say, but I can’t help myself. I need that extra bit of food, that extra drink, that extra cigarette. Life has so many pleasures that I can’t do without them.” But I’m saying you can help yourself. Not only that, you must help yourself. Because if you don’t help yourself, no one else can. So be your own best friend.

1.The underlined word “innocent”(in Paragraph 2) means ________.

A. not having done something wrong

B. exciting or cheering

C. not having much experience

D. not expected to cause harm

2.This passage is mainly about _______.

A. terrible diseases and so on

B. enjoying pleasures after a busy day

C. the difficulty of controlling ourselves

D. the danger of too much drinking, smoking and eating

3.“I can’t help myself” means ____________.

A. I can’t do it myself

B. I must ask someone to help

C. I can’t control myself

D. Do help me, please
