【題目】I am usually in a bad mood after a long day at work, but on this particular Friday afternoon I was in a high moodI planned to have a good meal and watch Bridget Jones’s Diary.

My local supermarket is always busyThe first parking space I spotted was convenient, but I’d noticed a woman in an old car circling for a whileI let her have itOn the edge of the car park I backed into the next available spot — it was a tight fit.

In record time I’d made my way through the supermarket and was back in the fresh airIn a rush of good spirits, I emptied my purse change into the hands of a homeless man and helped a struggling woman reverse (倒車) into a parking space.

Just as I spotted my car, I saw the woman I’d let have my car spot earlierI smiled and wished her a pleasant day.

As I got back into my car, I spotted the same lady looking in at me“ Hello,” she said, hesitantly (猶豫地)“ This might sound crazy but I was on my way to drop some of my mother’s things off at the charity bins.” I looked quickly at the orange bins in the corner of the parking lot, confused“ I saw you helping those people, and you seemed so happyMy mom had a dress just like that.”

She looked at me meaningfullyI smiled at her in encouragement, hoping she wouldn’t notice that the dress she was admiring was now full of holes“ I was going to give these away, but you are just so much like her.” She passed a box in through the windowShocked, unthinking, I took it automatically (無意識(shí)地)“ I think she would like you to have it.” She smiled and walked away.

After a pause, I opened the boxInside was a beautiful gold necklaceIt was the nicest gift I’d ever received, and it was from a complete stranger.

Later, I thought back on the dayI didn’t feel the usual sense of exhaustionThe necklace was around my neck, a warm reminder of human kindness.

【題目】Amy Maplethorpe, a first-year speech-language teacher at Raymond Ellis Primary School, used tennis balls, a hot glue gun, Mod Podge and a bit of paint to create two chairs that help students with sensory (感官的) problems.

According to the school’s Facebook page, which became very popular, the chairs provide a “different texture (質(zhì)地) to improve sensory regulation (調(diào)控).”

Maplethorpe told ABC News that the chairs will service about 15 to 20 students. Children with sensory problems often have a hard time “dealing with sensory information”. Things, such as coats, blankets and Maplethorpe’s chairs, often comfort a student.

Maplethorpe was excited to create the chair after seeing something similar on a website, and she made some changes to the idea.

“I wanted to continue to help students with sensory problems at Ellis and provide a different kind of seat for the students,” she continued. “I was excited that this chair could help my students.’’

The two chairs are now in the school’s sensory room, which was created recently, according to headmaster, Beth Kiewicz.

“When a child’s sensory needs are met, we then can move on to their needs in study,” Kiewicz, who has led the school for six years, told ABC News.

Maplethorpe said the chairs have already made a difference for some of her students.

“Students have become more patient, and have followed directions, while waiting for activities,” she said.

1What gave Maplethorpe the idea to create the tennis ball chair?

A. Service in the sensory room.

B. Chairs in the teachers’ office.

C. Something similar on a website.

D. Encouragement from the headmaster.

2How can the tennis ball chair help children with sensory problems?

A. It helps students with sensory regulation.

B. It causes students to be more restless.

C. It improves students’ memory.

D. It makes students sleep well.

3According to the article, the tennis ball chair ________.

A. is not easy to make

B. has been proved helpful

C. can service more than 20 students

D. is the best way to treat sensory problems
