Count to three.Keeping up enough space between your car and others is certainly necessary.Jim Clark,a California driving instructor,suggests a following distance of at least three seconds.To figure this,pick an object on the roadside ahead.When the car in front of you passes it,start counting one-thousand-one,one-thousand-two,one-thousand-three.If you get to that object before you reach one-thousand-three,you don’t have three seconds of following time—time needed to keep away from accidents.

Let followers pass.“If someone’s driving after you,get out of his way.”Clark advises.“You’re better of being safe than right.”

Expect the worst.In a study,the Federal Highway Administration(联邦公路局) found that 68 percent of drivers do not come to a complete stop at stop signs.When you’re driving and see someone come near to a stop sign,don’t be too sure that the person is going to stop.And when you stop at a crossing and another car comes near with its turning light on,don’t take it true that the driver will turn.Instead,wait until he turns.He may have had the light on for miles.

His own father had died from drinking too much. And his mother wasn’t really able to look after Charlie. She was often sick in mind and had to be sent to hospital. So he was sent to a home for children who had no parents. He was cold and poor there and the children were punished for small mistakes.

Thirty years later this same Charlie Chaplin became the king of comedy. Many people must have seen some of his films. People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until tears flowed down their eyes. Even people who don’t understand English can enjoy Chaplin’s films because they are mostly silent. It isn’t what he said that makes us laugh. His comedy doesn’t depend upon words. It depends upon little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world. From his very first appearance they know what to expect from the modest little man with the black moustache(小胡子), wide-open eyes, round black hat and shoes too large for his feet.

Like most writers, Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they brought her, but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing. Her works were, like her, simple and full of the vigor of her days in Nebraska, where she grew from child to young womanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the great plain with its wild flowers, wheat fields and rivers.

"It's a rather strange thing about the flat country," she wrote later. "It takes hold of you or it leaves you perfectly cold. A great many people find it very dull; they like a church tower, an old factory, a waterfall, the country all made to look like a German Christmas card...But when I come to the open plain, something happens. I'm home. I breathe differently."

A. It was cold, plain and without a church.

【3】When she said "It takes hold of you or it leaves you perfectly cold.", Willa Cather meant that _____.

A. you either love the place or hate it

B. you decide either to stay or to leave

C. some find the place warm; others find it cold

D. some find the place peaceful; others find it wild

【4】What happens when Cather comes to the open plain?

A. She breathes differently from others.

B. She wants to make the place her home.

C. She feels completely comfortable.

D. She finds the place similar to her home.

But Laura, our only daughter, sat quietly and was lost in her project. Every once in a while she would ask how to ________ the name of someone in our family, then carefully form the letters one by one. Next, she would add flowers with small items. She finished off each with a sun in the upper right hand corner. Holding them at eye level, she let out a long sigh (叹息) of satisfaction.

“What are you doing, Honey?” I asked. She looked quickly at her brother before looking back at me. “It’s a ________ .” she said, covering up her work with her hands.

Next, she put her work into a box. When she had finished, she disappeared up the stairs.

It wasn’t until later that evening that I ________ a “mailbox” beside the doors to each of our bedrooms. There were little notes saying that she loved all of us. She hadn’t _______ Sam or baby Paul. They are pages of flowers with happy faces. “He can’t read yet,” she whispered (低声说), “________he can look at the pictures.” Each time I received one of my little girl’s gifts, it _______ my heart. I was touched at how carefully she paid attention to what wrong happened to us. When Stephen lost a baseball game, there was a letter telling him she thought he was the best ballplayer in the whole world. After I had a _______day, there was a message thanking me for my efforts.

This same little girl is grown now, driving off every day to the college, but some things about her have ______ changed. Yesterday I found a love note next to my bedside. “Thanks for always being there for me, Mom,” it read, “I’m glad that we’re the best friends.”

There are angels among us. I know I live with one.
