15.I wandered into the small store where I usually buy milk,when the store owner received a call from a customer.The customer and his wife had shopped there several months earlier.He noticed that his wife really liked one thing in the store,so he wanted to buy it as a surprise.
But the customer was in Tennessee,far away from the store which was in Maine.What's more,he had been to the store several months earlier,and it was difficult to believe that the store owner would remember him,or what he was looking for.
The store owner took a few close-up photos with her camera,and e-mailed them to the customer on the computer.The customer looked at the photos,decided which one he wanted.They talked and discussed a price over the phone.She took care of the credit card transaction (交易) online,and promised the gift would be shipped out that afternoon.
The store owner was really smart.She was willing to push herself to find new ways to make the transaction actually happen.And it did work.However,it was the first time she had ever done it.
I was amazed that the store owner discovered a creative solution that could lead to a new way of doing business.I was impressed by what she did-so easily,but how difficult it is for many of us to make that leap(飛躍,跳躍).I'm not just talking about technology,but about learning how to adapt to change.Most people hate or fear change unless they get to know exactly what change needs to be made.However,we should realize that challenge and opportunity go hand in hand.

21.According to the passage,which of the following is TRUE?B
A.The gift was sent out by train that afternoon.
B.The customer had ever been to the store before.
C.The owner often did business by using her camera.

b.taking care of the credit card transaction online
c.talking about the price of the gift with the customer
d.e-mailing the photos to the customer on the computer
A.a(chǎn)bcd B.a(chǎn)dcb C.bcda D.bacd

20.It was a winter morning,just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005.While most people were warming up their cars,Trevor,my husband,had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work.On arrival,he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does.After putting in 10hours of labor,he returned to find his bike gone.
The bike,a black Kona 18speed,was our only transport.Trevor used it to get to work putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family.And the bike was also used to get groceries (食品雜貨),saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I to the newspaper and told them our story.Shortly after that,several people in our area offered to help.One wonderful stranger even bought a bike,then called my husband to pick it up.Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job.It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another,but but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so.This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity (人性) as a whole.And it has influenced (影響) us to be more mindful of ways we,too,can share with others.No matter how big or how small,an act of kindness shows that someone cares.And the results can be everlasting.

32.Why was the bike so important to the couple?A
A.They used it for work and daily life.
B.It was their only possession.
C.The man's job was bike racing.
D.It was a nice Kona 18 speed.
33.We can infer from the text thatC.
A.the couple worked 60 hours a week.
B.people were busy before Christmas
C.life was hard for the young family.
D.the stranger brought over the bike
34.How did people get to know the couple's problem?C
A.From radio broadcasts.
B.From TV news.
C.From a newspaper.
D.From a stranger.
35.What do the couple learn from their experience?B
A.Strangers are usually of little help.
B.An act of kindness can mean a lot.
C.News reports make people famous.
D.One should take care of their bike.
