Twenty years ago,I drove a taxi for a living.I met  2l  people.But none touched me  22  than a woman I picked up late one night.
I received a call from  23 in a quiet part of town.When I arrived at 2:30 a.m.,the building was  24  except for a single light in a ground floor window.I  walked to the door and  25 .“Just a minute,”answered a  26 ,elderly voice.After a long pause,the door opened.A small woman  27  her 80s stood before me.Beside her was a small suitcase.I took it to the taxi.and then returned to  28 the woman.She took my arm and we walked  29  toward the roadside.
Seated,she gave me  30 .“I’m on my way to a hospice(临终关怀医院).I'm in no hurry.Can you drive through downtown?” I saw her eyes shining with  31 in the rearview mirror.“I don’t have any  32  left.”she continued.“The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
During the next two hours’ 33 , sometimes she asked me to  34 in front of a particular building or corner and she  35 stare into the darkness.When we got to the destination,she asked,“How much do I   36 you?” “Nothing,”I said.“You            37 make a living.”she answered.“I have  38  passengers,”I replied,and gave her a hug. She held onto me  39 .“You gave an old woman a little moment of joy,” she said.“Thank you.”
After that,I drove aimlessly,lost in thought.People usually believe that our lives center upon great moments.  40 great moments often catch us unaware,beautifully wrapped in what others may consider a small one.

Dinah is one of the most good-natured children that ever lived, but she is very, very lazy. There is nothing she likes, or used to like, so much as to curl up in some warm corner in the sun and do nothing.
Dinah’s mother wished very much that her child should learn to read, but the lady who tried to teach her soon give it up. “It is no   16  ,” she said, “Dinah   17  not learn. She is not stupid, but too lazy.”
It happened soon that a young man from Massachusetts came to the house where Dinah lived. He brought with him something no one else in the neighborhood had ever seen before-a pair of roller-skates.
When Dinah saw the young man going rapidly up and down the piazza (广场) on his skates she was so   18 . She ran after him like a cat, her black eyes shining.
One day the young man allowed her to   19  the skates. The child was too happy for words. Of course she fell down, but did not   20  at all.
“Look here, Dinah,” said the young man, “I understand that my aunt has been trying to teach you to read. Why didn’t you learn? Now, if you can read, I will send you a pair of good roller-skates.”
For a moment she said  21 , then exclaimed decidedly, “I’ll have those skates, sure.”
And she did. When she   22  her mind on her work, she could always do it well,  23  it was.
The lady who had before this found her   24   difficult a child to teach, now had no trouble. If Dinah showed the least   25  of her former laziness, the word SKATES was enough to draw her attention back to her lesson instantly.
On New Year’s morning she received a box marked in large printed letters:
MISS DINAH MORRIS,
Care of Mrs. Lawrence Delaney,
NEW ORLEANS, LA.
If she can read what is on the outside of this box she can have what is inside.
And as Dinah read every word clearly and quickly, of course she had the fine roller-skates the box held. And now sitting curled up in the sun, doing nothing, is not the thing she likes to do best.

It was the first snow of winter — an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been able to dress myself for recess(课间休息), but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times in her long career, but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow pants. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and matching scarf(围巾) were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots(靴子). In her calm, motherly voice she said, "By the end of winter, you will be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected the adult to do all the work. After much wiggling and pushing, she managed to get first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
I announced,“They’re on the wrong feet.” With the grace that only experience can bring,she struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again. Then I said,“These aren’t my boots, you know.” As she pulled the offending boots from my feet, she still managed to look both helpful and interested. Once they were off, I said,“They are my brother’s boots. My mother makes me wear them, and I hate them!” Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying(烦人的) little girl.She pushed and shoved, less gently this time, and the boots were returned to their proper place on my feet. With a great sigh of relief, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your gloves?’’
I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I put them into the toes of my boots.”
68. According to the passage, the little girl got__________from her brother.
A. the wool snow pants and the jacket     B. the jacket and the boots
C. the jacket and the hat                D. the boots and the gloves
69. Why does the author say Miss Finlayson would remember that first snow day?
A. Because the little girl played a trick on her.
B. Because it was the most exciting day of the winter.
C. Because the little girl was in her brother’s clothes.
D. Because the little girl wore a pretty scarf.
70. We can learn from the text that Miss Finlayson_________.
A. was losing confidence in the little girl    B. gradually lost patience with the little girl
C. because disappointed with the little girl   D. was getting bored with the little girl
71. It can be inferred(推断) that before the little girl finally went out to enjoy the first snow of winter,the teacher had to help her put on her boots __________.
A. once             B. twice            C. three times             D. four times
