A
Is smile just a facial expression? Of course not! It is not only used to express pleasure, affection, and friendliness, but also the commonest way to show our good will perfectly without saying anything. A Chinese saying runs：“Never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that smile is a language all its own—a universal language—understood by the people of every nation in the world. We may not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors, but we smile in the same tongue. We need no interpreter for thus expressing love, happiness, or good will.
One day while shopping in a small town in southern California, it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality conflicted with mine. He seemed quite unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase. I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store. On the outside stood a young man in his early twenties. His expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, brilliant smile covered his face. The magic power of that smile made all bitterness within me melt, and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding. “Beautiful day, isn’t it?” I remarked, in passing. Then, obeying an impulse(冲动), I turned back. “I really owe you a debt of gratitude,” I said softly. His smile deepened, but he made no attempt to answer. A Mexican woman and two men were standing nearby. The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly. “Carlos, he no speak English,” she volunteered. “You want I should tell him something?” At that moment I felt changed. Carlos’ smile had made a big person of me. My friendliness and good will toward all mankind stood ten feet tall. “Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said, ‘Thank you!’’’ “Thank you?” The woman seemed slightly confused.
I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave. “Just tell him that.” I insisted. “He’ll understand, I am sure!”
Oh, what a smile can do! Although I have never seen that young man again, I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning. From that day on, I became smile-conscious, and I practice the art diligently, anywhere and everywhere, with everybody.
1、The writer marched angrily out of the store because________.
A．he bought nothing B．he was unlucky to meet with a rigid clerk
C．he was unfriendly D．he conflicted with the clerk in the store
2、What do you think of the woman?
A．Curious and sincere with good English.
B．Helpful and curious with poor English.
C．Enthusiastic and diligent with good English.
D．Warm-hearted and diligent with poor English.
3、In the following paragraph, the writer may mention________.
A．how he used smile to solve problems
B．how hard he tried to look for the young man
C．the lesson Carols had taught him
D．how he became a big person of ten feet tall
4、What is the best title for the passage?
A．A rigid clerk. B．A powerful smile.
C．A helpful woman. D．An impressive young man.

B
Five weeks ago I had total hip replacement surgery (髋关节置换手术). In Canada, we have a great healthcare system. That means we get our new hips for free.
My hip had been hurting me for years before I went to the doctor. Of course, it was free. She referred me to a surgeon, but the earliest appointment was in 10 months. That is what being free gets you. Ten months later, after some free X-rays, the surgeon told me I needed surgery, which was about an 18-month wait, for some senior citizens had been on the operation list. Another 18 months! I dragged myself out of the surgeon’s office.
Walking through the hospital, I thought about the situation. As the breadwinner of a large family, I couldn’t wait that long, so I had to get to the front line. I was fully aware of what a Canadian should be like (Canadians are usually considered gentle and ca-ring), but this time I really needed to fight for myself. At that very moment, in the shop window of the hospital, I saw a sign which read, “Volunteers Needed.” Suddenly, an idea occurred to me—I would get the job. Fortunately, they signed me up immediately because the average age of the volunteers at the shop was 75. They were desperate for some young blood.
Every Friday morning, I was at the shop. While seeing the hospital staff, I’d casually be asked, What do you do? Then ld tell them, Well, lm getting my hip replaced—in 18 months. It’s going to be so great when the pain stops. Soon, all the staff got to know me. Naturally, in my next appointment, the surgeon recognized me. Moments later, I had a surgery date just weeks away.
I had to say it was actually my volunteering that got me to the front of the line. And I’m not ashamed of it, for I intend to stick with the volunteering. Also, even when I cheated the system, I did it in a way that benefits society.
1、What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A．She felt rather disappointed.
B．She couldn’t walk because of the pain.
C．She was too scared to have the surgery.
D．She didn’t believe what the surgeon said.
2、Why did the writer decide to be a volunteer?
A．To donate blood to the hospital.
B．To get her new hip free of charge.
C．To receive some tiny gifts from others.
D．To approach the doctor for early surgery.
3、What did the author think of her cheat?
A．It was a shame.
B．It was a pride.
C．It was beneficial.
D．It was a fair deal.
4、Which can be the best title for the text?
A．How I Got My New Hip
B．The Doctor Who Saved My Life
C．How to Be a Volunteer in Hospital
D．The Problem of Canada’s Healthcare System
