摘要: Choose the best title for the passage. A. The kisses in the box. B. A girl and his father C. A love story D. The box under the Christmas tree. B The world economy has run into a brick wall. Despite countless warnings in recent years about the need to address a looming hunger crisis in poor countries and a looming energy crisis worldwide, world leaders failed to think ahead. The result is a global food crisis. Wheat, corn and rice prices increases combined with soaring energy costs will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even undermine political stability, as evidenced by the protest riots that have erupted in places like Haiti, Bangladesh and Burkina Faso. Practical solutions to these growing woes do exist, but we'll have to start thinking ahead and acting globally. So, what should be done?Here are three steps to ease the current crisis and avert the potential for a global disaster. The first is to scale-up the dramatic success of Malawi, a famine-prone country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its farmers get fertilizer and high-yield seeds. Malawi's harvest doubled after just one year. An international fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $10 per person annually in the rich world, or $10 billion in all. Second, the U.S. and Europe should abandon their policies of subsidizing the conversion of food into biofuels. Third, we urgently need to weatherproof the world's crops as soon and as effectively as possible. For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pond--which collects rainwater to be used for emergency irrigation in a dry spell--can make the difference between a bountiful crop and a famine. The world has already committed to establishing a Climate Adaptation Fund to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care but has not yet acted upon the promise. The food crisis provides not only a warning but also an opportunity. We need to invest vastly more in sustainable development in order to achieve true global security and economic growth.

  The story goes that some time ago, a man punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper.Money was tight and he became infuriated(愤怒的)when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said,“This is for you, Daddy.”

  The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found out the box was empty.He yelled at her, stating,“Don't you know, when you give someone a present, there is supposed to be something inside?”The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried,“Oh, Daddy, it's not empty at all.I blew kisses into the box.They're all for you, Daddy.”

  The father was crushed.He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness.

  Only a short time later, an accident took the life of the child.It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many years and, whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.

  In a very real sense, each one of us, as humans, have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family members, friends, and God.There is simply no other possession, anyone could hold, more precious than this.
