Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One early morning, I 1 a call for a taxi. When I arrived at the building, it was 2:30 a.m. and I found the building was dark except for the only light in a first floor window.

Many drivers would just shout once or twice and then drove away, but I thought this 2 might need my help. So I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a 3 , elderly voice. After a long time, the door opened. A small old man showed up before me, 4 a small bag. He kept thanking me for my 5 . “It’s nothing,” I told him.

“Oh, you’re such a good man.” He said. When we got into the taxi, he gave me a (an) 6, and then asked, “Could you drive through the city center?”

“But it wasn't the 7 way.” I answered quickly. “Oh, I'm in no hurry.” He said. “I'm on my way to a hospital. I don’t have any family left. The 8 says I don't have much time left.”

I 9 started the taxi and shut off the meter(计程器). For the next two hours, we drove 10 the city center. He showed me the building where he once worked. We drove past the church where he got married. He would never forget that happy moment. Sometimes he'd ask me to slow down in front of a building and would sit 11 the darkness for a long time, saying nothing. When the sun began to rise, we drove in silence to the address he had given me. When we arrived, 12 without thinking, I gave him a big hug. “You gave an old man a little moment of13 . Thank you!” He said with tears in his eyes.

I was completely lost in thought for the rest of the day. What would happen if I had refused to do 14 I did? We always think that there are no 15 moments in our lives, but great moments are just in what others may think small and unimportant ones.

D

Christopher Columbus is famous because he found something he wasn't looking for.

In 1492, Columbus sailed across the Atlantic Ocean in order to reach India. What he found was something far different. He found the New World. How did this come about? It all started in Italy.

Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa in 1451. His family didn't have a lot of money, and Christopher wasn't an only child. He didn't have much of an education until he was much older. Instead, he went to sea. He sailed around the Mediterranean(地中海) and as far north as England and Ireland.

During his travels, Columbus heard the reports of land to the west of the Madeira and Azores Islands. They were in the Atlantic Ocean west of Portugal. He wanted to know more and got maps and books on geography.

Marco Polo said that Japan was only 1,500 miles east of China. As a result, Columbus thought that Japan was only 3,000 miles west of Portugal. And 3,000 miles was a distance that ships could travel in those days.

So, Columbus decided that he wanted to get to the East by going west. He thought that if he sailed far enough west, he would sail around the world enough to reach the East. Based on his calculations(计算), Japan was only 3,000 miles away, after all.

（1）Where did Columbus want to go when he sailed across the Atlantic Ocean in 1492?

（2）Which of the following is true according to the third paragraph?

A . There were many people in Columbus' family.

C . Columbus did well in school when he was young.

D . Columbus once traveled to Ireland.

（3）During his travels, Columbus was interested in .

A . geography

B . physics

C . chemistry

D . history

（4）We can infer from the passage that .

A . Columbus had a dream to visit America

B . Marco Polo was a great traveler from Portugal

C . Columbus had the idea that earth was round

D . nobody believed Columbus could reach China

（5）The passage is mainly about .

A . Columbus's childhood

15. （8分） I am a professor of sports and exercise so I often deal with nervousness in my research with sports people. Actually, most people experience nervousness at some time or another.

If you are feeling anxious, my advice is to first find the cause or causes. Make s list of those things that are making you nervous and work out which ones you can do something about. Focus all of your efforts on managing the causes that you can control.

Most people cannot tell the difference between controllable(可控制的) and uncontrollable causes, so things they can't control become a big reason for nervousness. Dealing with this is very important if people want to keep a healthy mind.

Simply try to accept the uncontrollable causes of nervousness. You might be worried about the weather on a big day, an accident or an attack on the train, or perhaps just things that other people are doing at work. The results may be very important but there is still no use worrying because you can't control any of these things. Accept that you can't control everything. Once you understand this, it becomes easier not to worry.

If a situation, such as swimming, is causing you to be anxious, try to face it as often as possible so that you can get used to it.

It can often help to think about yourself doing the thing that make s you nervous—then close your eyes and imagine it going well. Imagine how the flight or job interview is going to happen so that you can get used to it. This will help you understand that the thing you fear most is probably not going to happen.

（1）The writer thinks there is no use worrying about some causes of nervousness because_____________.

A . most are not very important

B . they are not the real causes of the problem

C . they cannot be controlled by people

D . it's better to deal with one cause at a time

（2）If swimming makes you nervous, what should you do according to the writer?

A . Go swimming often to get used to it

B . Avoid going to the swimming pool.

C . Find a swimming teacher

D . Imagine watching others swim.

（3）What is true about nervousness according to the passage?

A . It usually has only one cause

B . It is usually caused by people.

C . People can easily manage it.

D . Most people suffer from it.

（4）What is the main purpose of this passage?

A . To introduce the writer's sports experience

B . To advise on how to deal with nervousness

C . To help people remember their fears

D . To explain the dangers of nervousness.
