Someday in the future we may not need to have money in our pockets. Life will be easy when people don't need to carry any money at all. Is money heavy to carry? Is it safe to carry money? Maybe in the future each of us will have only one small credit card(信用卡) . We will use it instead of money to buy all the things.
Of course we may still have some of the same problems with cards as we now have with money. For example, we lose money from time to time. Maybe we still lose the cards. Maybe someone will take the cards. Someone may even make a card that looks like our cards. Since we can't buy anything without our cards, the credit cards may be no better than money.
Is there something easier to use than credit card? Each of us has a thumbprint(拇指指纹). No two thumbprints are the same. Maybe someday the government will keep people's thumbprints with a number. When you want to buy something, you will put your thumb on a machine or a computer. Each store or business will have one. Everyone's thumbprint will be in the computer. It will be difficult to lose our thumbprints! It will be difficult for someone to steal(偷） it or to make one like it.

There is a rule for travel—never carry a map. I prefer to ask for direction（方向）.
Foreign visitors are often puzzled (困惑的) in Japan because most streets there don't have names. In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop."
In the country of the American Midwest, how do people tell the way? Usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas, for example, people will say, "Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile."People in Los Angles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure (测量) distance by telling time. "How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh," they answer, "it's about five minutes from here." You say, "Yes, but how many miles away is it?" They don't know.
People in Mexico never answer "I don't know." People in Yucatan think that "I don't know" is not polite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
One thing will help you everywhere. You might not understand a person's words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office!
（）31. What do you think the word "landmarks" means? It means _____.
A．names of the streets
B．names of the big buildings
C．hotels, markets and bus stops
D．buildings or places which are easily seen
（）32. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A . How people ask for direction in the country of the American Midwest.
B.A rule for travel in Los Angles, California.
C.How people tell the way in the country of the American Midwest.
D.There are not many landmarks in the American Midwest. .
（）33. Which of the following is True?
A . people in Japan use landmarks and street names to give directions.
B . People in Los Angles don’t know the distance on the map.
C . People in Mexico never give a wrong direction.
D．People in different places can only give directions with body language.

坚持希望
一天，一个瞎子和一个瘸子结伴去寻找那种仙果，他们一直走呀走，途中他们翻山越岭。

历经千辛万苦，头发开始斑白。

有一天，那瘸子对瞎子说：“天哪！这样下去哪有尽头？我不干了，受不了了。

“老兄，我相信不远了，会找到的，只要心中存有希望，会找到的。

”瞎子却说。

可瘸子执意要留在途中的山寨中，瞎子便一个人上路了。

由于瞎子看不见，不知道该走向何处，他碰到人便问，人们也好心地指引他，他身上捉襟见肘，遍体鳞伤，可他心中的希望未曾改变。

终于有一天，他到达了那座山，他全力以赴向上爬，快到山顶的时候，他感觉自己浑身充满了力量，像年轻了几十岁，他向身旁摸索，便摸到了果子一样的东西，放在嘴里咬一口，天哪！他复明了，什么都看见了，绿绿的树木，花儿鲜艳，小溪清澈。

果子长满了山坡，他朝溪水俯身看去，自己竞变成了一个英俊年轻的小伙子！
准备离去的时候，他没有忘记替同行而来的瘸子带上两个仙果，到山寨的时候，他看到瘸子拄着拐棍，变成了一个头发花白的老头，瘸子认不出他了，因为他已是一个年轻的小伙子。

可当他们相认后，瘸子吃下那果子，却丝毫未起任何变化，他们终于知道，只有自己的行动，才能换来成功和幸福。

所谓成功，我们要心存希望，要勇往直前，要坚持，要有毅力，那么，成功早晚属于你。

一饭千金
帮助汉高祖打平天下的大将韩信，在未得志时，境况很是困苦。

那时候，他时常往城下钓鱼，希望碰着好运气，便可以解决生活。

但是，这究竟不是可靠的办法，因此，时常要饿着肚子。

幸而在他时常钓鱼的地方，有很多漂母（清洗丝棉絮或旧衣布的老婆婆）在河边作工的，其中有一个漂母，很同情韩信的遭遇，便不断的救济他，给他饭吃。

韩信在艰难困苦中，得到那位以勤劳克苦仅能以双手勉强糊口的漂母的恩惠，很是感激她，便对她说，将来必定要重重的报答她。

那漂母听了韩信的话，很是不高兴，表示并不希望韩信将来报答她的。

后来，韩信替汉王立了不少功劳，被封为楚王，他想起从前曾受过漂母的恩惠，便命从人送酒菜给她吃，更送给她黄金一千两来答谢她。

这句成语就是出于这个故事的。

它的意思是说：受人的恩惠，切莫忘记，虽然所受的恩惠很是微小，但在困难时，即使一点点帮助也是很可贵的；到我们有能力时，应该重重地报答施惠的人才是合理。

【感恩小结】
感恩，是结草衔环，是滴水之恩涌泉相报。

感恩，是一种美德，是一种境界。

感恩，是值得你用一生去等待的一次宝贵机遇。

感恩，是值得你用一生去完成的一次世纪壮举。

感恩，是值得你用一生去珍视的一次爱的教育。

感恩，不是为求得心理平衡的喧闹的片刻答谢，而是发自内心的无言的永恒回报。

感恩，让生活充满阳光，让世界充满温馨……。
