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 not59what 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. bbottled water or tap water(自来水)? the answer very much depends on how you are affected by advertising. many british people certainly are easily influenced by ads. bottled water is a2 billion business every year in the uk. so why do we buy it? a study found that people tend to believe that bottled water is somehow healthier, but dont know why. perhaps it is because it costs more. bottled water costs around 500 times more than tap water. manufactures(制造商) would make you believe that bottled water is naturally cleaner and tastier than tap water, but many, in fact, get their water from the same place that tap water comes from. indeed, there is nothing natural about the way much bottled water is made. apart from the oil used to make the plastic bottles, the water causes much more pollution than tap water. producing and transporting bottled water result in hundreds of times more co emissions(排放), and thats before considering the effect the plastic bottles have on the environment only around a quarter are recycled. ok, so it is not “green” to drink bottled water, but what about your health? isnt tap water full of bad things? if you live in a country where water standards are poor, then you have cause for concern. but if you live in britain, you can be confident that tap water has been filtered(过滤) and tested, and is perfectly safe to drink. in fact, britains tap water is one of the safest in the world. but does bottled water really taste better? tap water can taste different in different areas. it may contain different amounts of minerals, which can affect its flavor. if the taste bothers you, the solution is to pour tap water into a bottle and put it in the fridge, or even buy a water filter. this ought to make it palatable. then smile at the thought of the money you have just saved. 60. according to the passage, compared to tap water, bottled water _. a. is much healthierb. contains more mineralsc. is not environmentally friendlyd. is produced in a more natural way61. the underlined word “palatable” in the last paragraph probably means “_”. a. healthy b. light c. tasty d. warm 62. what is the authors attitude towards using tap water in britain?a. negative. b. positive c. interested. d. worried63. how is the passage mainly developed?a. by giving examples. b. by making comparisons.c. by following time order.d. by telling personal experiences.c tayka hotel de salwhere: tahua, boliviahow much: about $95 a nightwhy its cool: youve stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt?
