　　London－“Everyone else has one!”Lucy declared to her parents, trying to get a mobile phone as a gift for her 14th birthday．Her parents gave in．

　　Curious to know how her daughter would use the phone, the mother, followed Lucy to the school bus in the morning．The bus seats 20, of whom half have a mobile phone．One rings and several adolescent(青少年)owners fumble(摸索)with their bags．

　　Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is not longer only for traveling business-men－it is as likely to be found in school bags．

　　Nick was tired of life．Every day was exactly the same．

　　“What I need is a little adventure!”Nick thought as he waited at the bus stop one morning．Nick’s little adventure happened sooner than he had expected．

　　While he was on the bus, reading his newspaper, the man sitting next to him suddenly pushed a large brown envelope in his hands．“Here, take this!”he murmured．Then he stood up and got off the bus before Nick could say a word．

　　“So that’s that!”Nick said to himself on his way to the office．He was over an hour late．“I’ve had my little adventure, but I can’t tell anyone about it．So what’s the point?I’ve even got to make up an excuse to the boss!”

　　We all know what it is like to be unable to turn your head because of a cold in the muscles of your neck, or because an unexpected twist has made your neck ache and stiff．Your whole body feels tight．The slightest move makes you jump with pain．Nothing could be worse than a pain in the neck．

　　That is why we use the phrase to describe some people who give you the same feeling．We have all met such people．

　　One is the man who always seems to be clapping his hands－often at the wrong time－during a performance in the theater．He keeps you from hearing the actors．

　　Even worse are those who can never arrive before the curtain goes up and the play begins．They come hurrying down to your row of seats．You are comfortably settled down, with your hat and heavy coat in your lap．You must stand up to let them pass．You are proud of your self-control after they have settled into their seats…Well, what now…Good God, one of them is up again．He forgot to go to the men’s room, and once more you have to stand up, hanging on to your hat and coat to let him pass．Now, that is“a pain in the neck”．

　　Another, well-known to us all, is the person sitting behind you in the movies．His mouth is full of popcorn; he is chewing loudly, or talking between bites to friends next to him．None of them remain still．Up and down, back and forth, they go－for another bag of popcorn, or something to drink．

　　Then, there is the man sitting next to you at a lunch counter smoking a smelly cigar．He wants you to enjoy it too, and blows smoke across your food into your mouth．

　　We must not forget the man who comes into a bus or subway car and sits down next to you, just as closes you will let him．You are reading the newspaper and he leans over and stretches his neck so that he can read the paper with you．He may even turn the paper to the next page before you are ready for it．

　　We also call such a person a“rubber-neck”, always stretching his neck to where it does not belong, like neighbors who watch all your visitors．They enjoy invading your privacy．People have a strong dislike for rubber-necks．They hate being spied upon．

　　Remember those highly charged first days? They were full of real-life tests where there was always something new to learn, and not always from a book．One of my first lessons occurred on my first day of kindergarten, when I got on the wrong bus－as my older sister still likes to remind me．

　　Life’s minor embarrassments do happen, and I know I can’t protect my own children from them．I just try to teach them to laugh at theirs like I do at mine．

　　My daughter Erin started on the wrong foot in the 1st grade, at a new school where she knew no one．All the other 1st graders couldn’t resist opening and closing, closing and opening their new desks．Wouldn't you know Erin would neither open nor close? She came to find out she was sitting on the wrong side!

　　Even getting around in a new school can be a challenge．Erin's older sister, Molly, almost missed her first lunch in junior high．The school secretary came to her rescue, arming her with the knowledge that while the gym and flex space were next door to each other, lunch was served only in the latter．

　　The first day sometimes has pitfalls for Mom and Dad, too．Once, I managed to stockpile(储备)Molly and Erin's school supplies as they went on sale the previous year．I thought everything was ready for the first day－oh, yeah! My victory dance was short-lived, however．After day one my ladies rushed off the bus, both worried and confused, saying “Mom, we need wide-rule not college-rule paper, and three 2-inch notebooks instead of two 3-inch ones! And for standardized testing, standardized No．2 pencils only, please．”

　　Perhaps my favorite first-day memory happened the first time my two daughters went to full-day public school together, when I was understandably emotional．Erin noticed my red eyes and white smile．“You are happy and sad, huh, Mommy?” Such a sensitive girl! She added, “Just like the time when you were crying and laughing after the car stopped running on the ice and we were OK．” Well, at least I could laugh!

(1)

A．

She couldn't find her new classroom．

B．

She didn't know how to use her new desk．

C．

She couldn’t find the place to have lunch．

(2)

What does the underlined word “pitfalls” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

[　　]

A．

Unexpected problems．

B．

Great pleasures．

C．

Unnecessary worries．

D．

Painful experiences．

(3)

We can learn from the last paragraph that Erin _________．

[　　]

A．

had mixed feelings when leaving her home

B．

didn't want to go to full-day public school

C．

noticed her mother was sick that day

D．

understood how her mother felt then

(4)

What is the subject of the passage?

[　　]

A．

The relationship between Morn and child．

B．

The first day of a new school year．

C．

How to keep kids from making mistakes．

D．

Sweet memories at school．

　　Last July, my 12-year-old car died on California's Santa Freeway．It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles from home．I couldn't reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus．Not knowing the routes, I thought I should just go east．

　　A bus stopped．I got on and asked the driver how far she was going．“Ten more miles, ”she said．There was another bus I could take from here．This clearly was going to be a long night．

　　I got off at the end of the route and she told me which bus to look for．After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home．Then a bus came up．There was no light number above its windshield(挡风玻璃)．It was out of service, but the door opened．It was the same driver．“I just can't leave you here, ”she said．“This isn't the nicest place．I will give you a ride home．”

　　“You will drive me home on the bus? ”I asked, astonished．

　　“No, I will take you in my car, ”she said．

　　“It's a long way, ”I insisted．

　　“Come on, ” she said．“I have nothing else to do．”

　　As we drove from, the station in the car, she began telling me a story．A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas．A good man picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car．“I'm just passing the favour on, ”she said．
