One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived to collect， I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.I walked to the door and knocked. “Just a minute，” answered a weak， elderly voice. After a long pause， the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.I took the suitcase to the car， and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car.She kept thanking me for my kindness. “Its nothing，” I told her. “I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.”“Oh， youre such a good man，”she said. When we got into the taxi， she gave me an address， and then asked， “Could you drive through downtown？”“Its not the shortest way，” I answered quickly.“Oh， Im in no hurry，” she said. “Im on my way to a hospice(临终医院). I dont have any family left. The doctor says I dont have very long.”I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器).For the next two hours， we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked， the neighborhood where she had lived， and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.Sometimes shed ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness， saying nothing.At dawn， she suddenly said，“Im tired. Lets go now.”We drove in silence to the address she had given me.“How much do I owe you？” she asked.“Nothing，” I said.“You have to make a living，” she answered. “Oh， there are other passengers，” I answered.Almost without thinking， I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly. Our hug ended with her remark， “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”21. The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to _.A. show she was familiar with the cityB. see some places for the last timeC. let the driver earn more moneyD. reach the destination on time22. The taxi driver did not charge the old woman because he _.A. wanted to do her a favor B. shut off the meter by mistakeC. had received her payment in advance D. was in a hurry to take other passengers23. What can we learn from the story？A. Giving is always a pleasure.B. People should respect each other.C. An act of kindness can bring people great joy.D. People should learn to appreciate others concern.BWe know the famous onesthe Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells but what about the less famous inventors？ What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)？Shouldnt we know who they are？Joan Mclean think so. In fact， Mclean， a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range， feels so strongly about this matter that shes developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who” invented “what”， however， Mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the “why” and ”how” questions. According to Mclean，” When students learn the answers to these questions， they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”Her students agree. One young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of McLeans statement. If I had not heard the story of the windshield wipers invention， said Tommy Lee， a senior physics major. I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rainstorm into something so constructive. Lee is currently negotiating to sell his patent to an umbrella producer. So， just what is the story behind the windshield wiper？ Well， Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City. The day was cold and stormy， but Anderson still wanted to see the sights， so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield， she found herself wondering why there couldnt be a built-in device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home， Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas， a lever(操作杆)on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside， became the first windshield wiper. Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations，Its hard to imagine driving without Garrett A. Morgans traffic light. Its equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J. Blodgetts innovation that makes glass invisible， Can you picture life without clear windows and eyeglasses？24.By mentioning “traffic light” and “windshield wiper”， the author indicates that countless inventions are .A. beneficial， because their inventors are famousB. beneficial， though their inventors are less famousC. not useful， because their inventors are less famousD. not useful， though their inventors are famous25.Professor Joan McLeans course aims to_.A. add colour and variety to students campus lifeB. inform students of the windshield wipers inventionC. carry out the requirements by Mountain UniversityD. prepare students to try their own invention26Tommy Lees invention of the unbreakable umbrella was _. A. not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer B. inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper C. due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm D. not related to Professor Joan McLeans lectures27. Which 0f the following can best serve as the title of this passage？ A、How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers？ B、How to Design a Built-in Device for Cleaning the Window？ C、Shouldnt We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper？ D、Shouldnt We Develop Invention Courses in Universities？ CLove， success， happiness， family and freedom-how important are these values to you？ Here is one interview which explores the fundamental questions in life.Question: Could you introduce yourself first？Answer: My name is Misbah， 27 years old.
