　　A few minutes ago, walking back from lunch, I started to cross the street when I heard the sound of a coin dropping．It wasn’t much but, as I turned, my eyes caught the heads of several other people turning too．A woman had dropped what seemed to be a dime(十美分硬币)．

　　The sound of a coin dropping on the street catches everybody’s attention．Whatever the coin is, no one ignores(忽视)the sound of it．It got me thinking about sounds again．

　　There are so many sounds that catch the most attention．People in New York City seldom turn to look when they hear the siren(警报)of a police car or an ambulance(救护车)．

　　When I’m in New York, I’m a New Yorker．I don’t turn either．I hardly hear a siren there．

　　At home in my little town in Connecticut, it’s different．The faraway high sound of a police car, an ambulance or a fire siren brings me to my feet if I’m sitting and brings me to the window if I’m in bed．

　　It’s the quietest sounds that catch our attention most easily, not the loudest．In the middle of the night, I can hear water dropping a hundred yards away through three closed doors．I’ve been hearing little creaking(吱嘎)noises and sounds in the middle of the night for twenty-five years in our house．Why do I never hear those sounds in the daytime?

(1)

[　　]
A．	think of money

　　Jess really felt very happy．When he arrived at his seat in the classroom that morning, he found an invitation on his desk．It was from several of his classmates asking him to join them on a camping trip．This was the first time he was asked to join in an out-of-school activity．Why were they asking him now?Nobody seemed to like him．In fact, he had been so lonely that he drowned his feeling with food．As a result, he became much heavier than before, and this gave the kids something more to make fun of him．

　　Cindy, who was standing near Jess when he read the invitation, went out quickly to tell the others that the trick(恶作剧)had worked．Everyone was pleased that Jess thought that was true．But there was no camping trip．The whole thing was made up．
