I once met a middle-aged stranger who said his money had been stolen at the railway station，so he had no money to go home． He begged for help from passers-by，but they all pretended not to have heard what he was saying and went by quickly． Then he stopped me and wanted me to give him the help． At first I could not accept that because I didn't think he was telling the truth． But when I saw tears in his eyes，I began to believe that he might be in the real trouble，so，just immediately I gave him all the money I had． When he took the money， his face turned red． Before he left，he expressed his great thanks and also said he would give back my money when he reached home．
When I came back to school and told my classmates about my story，they held different opinions． Some of them thought that I did a good deed to have given a hand to the person in trouble，while others said that I was cheated． Some even laughed at me and called me a fool who could not judge things in the right way． Now，I am really confused！

Help or Not？
In this passage, the writer mainly tells us his experience of giving help to a stranger, which made him very confused because his classmates held different opinions about his deed．
One evening, Father was driving me home when a stranger stopped us and said he needed a ride badly． Hearing this, Father hesitated and advised that we go on our way． I nodded, though still feeling uneasy． The moment my father restarted the car, I changed my mind and signed him to get into the car． Several days later，we were very surprised to receive a letter from him, reading "Thank you so much for helping me so that I got to my dying wife's side just before she passed away． God bless you for your unselfishness!"
I have never regretted what I have done to help strangers as I firmly believe that there is always goodness in the world． Besides, nobody can tell when he will be in trouble．What if everybody just looks on when you are in trouble? So, why not help？

名师点拨卷系列答案
英才计划期末调研系列答案阅读下面的短文，然后从A-F选项中，为每一小段选择合适的标题, 并把答案写在答案卷上。
|
A. The most common problem is a “wandering” mind B. Selective listening is also a mental barrier C. Listening isn’t an easy skill to master D. Attitude can also influence good listening E. Noise and background music makes listening more difficult F. Listening is also related to the level of the listener’s knowledge |
1._____________
Listening is not as easy as someone thought. Even good listeners may recall only fifty percent of what they hear. Retention, the ability to remember and recall information, decreases about twenty to twenty-five percent after a few days. So no matter how well you listen in class, you’re always going to have to refresh your memory before a test! Unfortunately, many people have poor listening habits, and little listening training. To improve your listening skills, it’s important to understand what causes poor listening.
2.___________
If you find it difficult to concentrate solely on what a speaker is saying, there’s a good reason. The mind processes information much faster than a speaker can speak. The brain can process over 500 words per minute, while the average speaker talks at a rate of 124 to 250 words per minute. That means the mind can hear what’s being said and can think about something else at the same time.
3.____________
If you have a negative idea about the speaker or the topic, you’ll find it difficult to listen attentively. Hostile or captive audiences often have more difficultly listening than do favorable or voluntary ones.
4.____________
If a speaker speaks “above the heads” of an audience, people find it difficult to concentrate. Speakers who use unfamiliar words or who use incomplete explanations make it more difficult to listen. Speakers who “speak down” to audiences, failing to acknowledge what the audience already knows, also create mental blocks.
5.___________
When people listen selectively, they simply block out what they don’t want to hear. For instance, many people have habits that are dangerous to their health, like smoking. However, they often choose to block out what a speaker says about health risks. They may listen to a speech and think that the speaker’s message applies to other people, not them. In other words, they hear what they want to hear and ignore what they don’t want to hear.
