2．I've ridden a lot of buses in my time．There was the one in India that was so crowded，I had to climb onto the top just to breathe．Neither will I forget the bus in South Africa that was almost taken up by monkeys．No matter how entertaining they were at the time，none can compare to my first ride on what I now call the Leisure Village Local．
When I first moved into Leisure Village，I didn't even know bus transportation was provided．Then I had an operation on my left foot and I couldn't drive．As I didn't want to keep making trouble for friends to shop for me，I decided to try out the Leisure Village Local．
The next morning，undaunted，I stood with the support of my crutches（拐杖） and waited．Suddenly，the bus arrived．As soon as I boarded the bus，I discovered I was all by myself．Then the bus approached another stop，and four women climbed aboard．They sat next to me and introduced themselves．
A few minutes later，we arrived at the Wal-Mart in Middle Island．As soon as we entered，one of my new friends showed me how to operate the motorized shopping cart（购物车）．Another walked alongside the entire time，waiting to help if something was out of reach．One hour later，another insisted on carrying my bags onto the bus．And the fourth woman carried my bags to my front door when we got back．I thanked them all for their help，and told them I would see them soon．
The next day morning，I found a brown paper bag at the front door．Inside was a giant bowl of chicken soup，and a note．
"Get well soon．"It was signed，"Your guardian angels．"
I rode the Leisure Village Local two more times later，but didn't see any of my guardian angels．Maybe they're helping someone else，I thought．Or，maybe they flew south for the winter．
21．Why did the author decide to try out the Leisure Village Local？D

D．finally became the author's friends

A．guilt        B．panic        C．humor            D．security
24．Which of the following can be the best title for the text？D

C．A Pleasant Shopping Experience       D．A Chance Meeting with Angels．
3．When I was 16 years old and in foster care （非亲代养）in Tennessee，people told me I was unadoptable．But I desperately wanted a family．I sought the help of a judge，even the commissioner of the Department of Children's Services，and was adopted just a week before my 18th birthday．
    We have a lot to be grateful for and this holiday season let's not forget about the more than 415，000 youth in foster care especially older youth．These youth are the most likely to get overlooked for adoption，but they shouldn't be．They need and deser ve a family just as much as young children do．Making an older youth a part of your family can bring just as much a joy as adopting a baby or a younger child-without all the diapers and potty training．
My adoption was life changing and probably the best thing that ever happened to me．I still remember the first gift my parents gave to me．It was a Mickey Mouse key chain with a key to their home．They told me that no matter what happened they would always love me and I'd always have a place to come home to．This is our 17th Thanksgiving together…
    My first Thanksgiving with my family was a little overwhelming with lots of extended family including grandparents，aunts，uncles，and cousins．However，it's when I realized that I would never have to spend another holiday alone and that was truly an amazing feeling．
    I was always eager to spend time with my little sister，Beth．She was six when I joined the family．My dad always says he knew we were really sisters，and I was no longer a guest in the house when Beth and I had our first fight．Today，she's one of my best friends，and I'm her b iggest cheerleader．
    There were also bittersweet Thanksgivings．One we spent in my mom's hospital room．It was there that she helped me plan my wedding but passed away three weeks before the ceremony．My dad walked me down the aisle，and my sister was my maid of honor．Because of our bond，we were able to support each other through that challenging time and that's what family is for-the good and bad times．
    It's nice having my dad and sister to share holidays and special occasions．But they're even more important when it comes to the little things-like having someone to share my bad day with，celebrate my promotion at work，or help me think through a difficult decision．It's in these moments that I just can't imagine being alone in the world．
    I'm so glad that I didn't listen to those people who said I was unadoptable，I'd never find a family，and that I was putting myself out there for rejection．It's a risk for older foster youth to consider adoption．It's an opportunity to be rejected once again． But it's a risk they should take because life doesn't end at 18．It's really just beginning．
    If you know someone who might consider adopting an older teen，please share my story--and have him or her think of my family．They didn't get to see my first steps or watch me be a pilgrim in my second grade Thanksgiving play．But they taught me so many things about life，and were there to watch me walk across the stage when I graduated from college and law school and accompanied me to the White House last year as I was honored for my work helping foster youth．
    I look forward to many more Thanksgivings with my family，and I'm eternally thankful they chose me to be a part of their family．
