this guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!” and this was what my taxi driver told me which, i call, the law of the garbage truck.many people are like garbage trucks. they run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. as their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump（倾卸） it. and if you let them, theyll dump it on you. when someone wants to dump on you, dont take it personally. you just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. youll be happy you did.so this was it: “the law of the garbage truck.” i started thinking, how often do i let garbage trucks run right over me? and how often do i take their garbage and spread it to other people: at work, at home, on the streets? it was that day i said, “im not going to do it anymore.”i began to see garbage trucks. i see the load theyre carrying. i see them coming to drop it off. and like my taxi driver, i dont make it a personal thing; i just smile, wave, and move on.good leaders know they have to be ready for their next meeting. good parents know that they have to welcome their children home from school with hugs and kisses. what about you? the mark of a successful person is how quickly they can get back their focus on whats important.56the driver of the black car got angry because .ahe was in a bad moodbhe couldnt control his carche met with a garbage truckdthe taxi driver made a mistake57who acted like a garbage truck in the incident described in the first two paragraphs?athe writer.bthe taxi driver.cnone of them.d the black car driver.58the sentence “youll be happy you did” at the end of the 3rd paragraph means youll .abe as happy as you used to bebbe as happy as you expectedcbe happy that you did as i saydbe happy though you were not59when the writer said “im not going to do it anymore”, he meant hed no longer .asee garbage trucksbhave garbage dumped on himcbe a “garbage truck” himself d. dump garbage on others60what is the main idea of the last paragraph?a. try to be good leaders as well as good parents.bignore(忽视) unpleasantness and stick to your tasks.calways be kind an hard-workingddo things quickly so as to be ready for the next. ba new study released（发布） by the center for disease control （cdc） indicates that adults in us are not getting enough rest each night, according to media reports friday.of those questioned, 70 percent said they had not gotten enough rest or sleep every day of the past month.the study, which surveyed adults in delaware, hawaii, new york and rhode island, found that a lack of sleep is a particular problem for younger adults.of those between 18 and 34, 13.3 percent lacked enough sleep every day, compared to 7.3 percent of adults over 55.however, the study did not find much difference between races or sexes.the national sleep foundation says that most adults need 7 to 9 hours of sleep every night. an estimated （评估的） 50 to 70 million people suffer from constant sleep loss or sleep disorders, according to cdc, though people often do not understand that lack of sleep can cause health problems.but there is some good news: retirement is obviously good for your sleep habits. the cdc found that those who are no longer working are twice as likely to report that they get a full nights sleep.sleep patterns can be influenced by what kinds of jobs people have, and even where they live. people who lived in hawaii obviously got more sleep than those in the other three states studied, the study found, lifestyle choices, such as late-night television watching, internet surfing, or caffeine intake（咖啡因摄入）, can also affect sleep patterns, the study said.61which of the following is not the cause of ones sleep loss according to the study?
