Last spring I was walking in a park. A mother and her three-year-old daughter were walking in front of me. The little girl was carrying a balloon.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew the balloon away. I thought she would be crying.

But she didn't. As the little girl turned watching the balloon flying away. she happily shouted out, "Wow!"

I didn't realize(意识n到) it at that moment, but that little girl taught me something.

Later that day, I got a phone call from a friend with news of an unexpected problem (问题). I felt like saying, "Oh, no, what should we do?" But, remembering that little girl, I found myself saying, "Wow, that's interesting! How can I help you?"

One thing is for sure - life is always going to keep us off balance(平衡) with its unexpected problems. We can't get away from these problems, but we can choose to be happy or unhappy when we meet them.

44. What does the underlined word "unexpected" mean in Chinese?

A.没有预料到的       B.无法解决的  C.毫无意义的      D.不实际的

45. What can the writer learn from the little girl's "Wow"?

A. Life is full of love.            B. Never say "no" to others.

C. Always look at something bright in life. D. Don't play with balloons.

46. What's best title (标题) for the passage?

A. A mum and her daughter.          B. A three-year-old little girl.

C. A flying-away balloon.          D. A girl's "Wow".
