阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cab．He re’s what happened．I hopped in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station．We were driving in the right lane when, all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us．My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car’s back end by just inches!
The driver of the other car, who almost caused a big accident, started yelling bad words at us．My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy．And I mean he was friendly．So, I said, “Why did you just do that？This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！” And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck．”
Many people are like garbage （rubbish） 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 it．And if you let them, they’l l dump it on you．When someone wants to dump on you, don’t take it personally．You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on．You’ll be happy with what you did．
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, or on the streets？It was that day
I said, “I’m not going to do anymore．”
Successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their day．What about you？If you let more garbage trucks pass you by, you’ll be happier．Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets．So, Love the people who treat you right．Forget about the ones who don’t．

Pascal had not been able to fall asleep that night. Around the plantation (种植园), the air seemed full of secrets. As he lay in the cabin (小棚屋) doorway, he worried about how people would treat him now that mama was dead.
After work that afternoon, Pascal walked past some men and when he greeted them, they all stopped talking. Didn’t they know that even though he worked in the Big House, he wouldn’t tell the master what they were talking about? In fact, Pascal had secretly saved one of those men from a beating one day. The master had seen the slave Parsmi picking some apples to feed his children. As soon as the master ran after Parsmi, Pascal used his big walking stick to break a window. When the master turned back to run to his Big House, Parsmi had escaped.
The night air was sweet but also full of mystery and secrets. He listened to the breathing of six other slaves who lay with him on the dirty floor of the crowded cabin. Glancing at the open doorway, Pascal suddenly found a shadow moving by the doorway, so he whispered, “Who’s that?” “P ascal? It’s me, Gideon.”“Gideon? You are back? Is that really you, Gideon?” Pascal could hardly believe it. His heart was filled with happiness. Gideon ran away from the plantation two years ago.

“Yes, it’s me. I have come back for you an d mama. “But Gid eon, mama was dead. She kept asking for more food for the slaves, and the overseer (监工) sh ot her down.”
Gideon pulled Pascal to his side and hugged him, cryin g over his mama’s death and saying, “all the time, I want to tell mama that we are free now.”“Free?” Pascal held his breath and wiped his eyes. “Are you sure, Gideon?” “P resident Lincoln freed us slaves two years ago. And still better, we’re going to have our own land.”

【2014模拟试题】
Recently, professor of philosophy（哲学）in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our daily life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life.
He says our relations with others often become clearly defined（清晰的）when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful relationship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.
Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book.
Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a self-made man?
Answer: The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is rich.
People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.

A. how important money is in their daily life
B. how one spends money shows what is important to him

________.

29. The underlined phrase “enter the picture”in the second paragraph can be replaced by “_________”.
A. is used up
B. is spent on pictures
C. is paid in the right way
