Even before I opened my mouth, he was frowning and shaking his head.It was September, 1957, and my family had just arrived in California. My father, a sheetmetal worker, only got work two or three days a week. Our meager savings were gone, and as the eldest boy of the family, I was the only one able to help. Id applied at retail stores, but without local references shopkeepers were reluctant to let me handle cash.“Tell you what，” I said, “let me work the rest of the week, and if you dont like the way I do the job, dont pay me.” The tall man stared at me , then nodded, “Im Mort Rubin. Whats your name？”At Morts, I worked very hard. As closing time approached on Saturday, I was in agony. I also had no idea whether Mort would pay me.Near the end of the day he called me up to him. “How much did that card at school say this job paid？” he asked.“One dollar an hour，” I murmured, “the minimum wage.” Actually I was willing to take less.“Thats not enough for someone who works as hard as you，” Mort said. “You start at $ 1.25.” Over the next few weeks I learned a lot about Mort. Our store was closed on Sundays, so every Saturday evening Mort urged me to take home the leftover soup in a huge jar. It was a meal in itself, a treat for my struggling family.One Saturday after work, as I glanced inside, I almost dropped the jar. In my fathers chair was a large bald man. He was cursing my father. My brothers and sisters sat like statues; Dads face was like stone；Mom wept. I crept into the kitchen, set the soup on a counter and listened through the door. The man wanted to take our car. Dad offered to make the three payments that were in arrears(到期未付), but the man demanded the entire sum$ 325or the car. I had been in Los Angeles just long enough to understand how essential a car is. I slipped out of the door, got on the car, started the engine and circled the neighborhood, thinking furiously. Who might have $ 325？Who would even consider lending me such a large sum?The only person I could think of was Mort. I drove back to his deli, knocked on the rear door, and then waited until the window shade went up. I found myself staring down the barrel(枪管) of an army 0.45.“What do you want？” Mort growled, lowering the gun.I stammered out my tale. “So, could you possibly loan my father $ 325？” I finished, realizing how absurd it sounded.Morts eyes bored holes in my face. His cheeks began purpling，and his lips quivered. Realizing he was still clutching the gun, I took a step backward.“This is $ 325，” he said. “When school is out, youll work fulltime. Ill take back half your wages until its repaid.”That night I was a hero to my family. But the real hero was Mort Rubin, who not only saved us from certain penury, but also quietly raised my salary every month. By summer, I was earning double the original wage. I worked for Mort until I graduated two years later and joined the Army. We stayed in touch for many decades, but I lost track of him several years ago and dont even know if hes still alive now.But this is what I do know: Mort Rubin made the world a better place.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者在困难时期向Mort Rubin求助的经历。在作者心中，Mort Rubin就是一个让世界变得更美好的英雄。1Why does the author describe the information of his family in Paragraph 2?ATo show his strong desire for a job.BTo reflect his poor living conditions.CTo stress the heavy burden to his father.DTo prove the high living expenses in California.A解析：推理判断题。根据上下文提及的作者求职的经历以及第二段中的“as the eldest boy of the family, I was the only one able to help”可知，作者作为家中年龄最大的男孩子，是唯一一个可以帮助减轻家庭经济负担的人，故描述自己求职时的家庭情况是为了说明自己多么渴望能得到一份工作。故选A。2What made Mort Rubin employ the author with a salary of $ 1.25 at last?AThe authors constant requests for help.BThe authors poor family background.CThe authors previous work experience.DThe authors excellent work performance.D解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“At Morts, I worked very hard.”和第五段中的“Thats not enough for someone who works as hard as you”可知，正是作者出色的工作表现才让Mort Rubin以每小时1.25美元的薪酬雇用了作者。故选D。3What can be inferred from the underlined sentence about the authors family in Paragraph 6?AThey had given up hopes of living on.BThey had no ability to settle a debt.CThey were scared to death by a robbery.DThey were indifferent to the mans scolding.B解析：句意理解题。根据第二段提及的作者的家庭情况和画线句下文的“The man wanted to take our car.
