My friends and I had just finished lunch at a hotel when it started to rain heavily. When it became lighter, I decided to get my      , which was parked at my office three streets away.
My friends        that I shouldn’t go, mainly because I was seven months pregnant(懷孕) then. I promised them that I’d be very      . One of them wanted to come with me but I asked her to stay with another friend who needed help         her baby.
I walked out of the hotel and started making my way to the car. At the crossing, a van stopped and a man came out with an umbrella. Before I knew what was happening, he walked right      me and told me he’d escort(護(hù)送)me. Although I refused, he said that he would.
　　During our walk, he kept telling me to walk slower, as the ground was        . When we got to the car park, I thanked him and he went away. I did not get his name and can        recognize(認(rèn)出) him now. Did he stop for me? I’ll never know.
　　So how did I pay it forward? I was at home when I noticed two Indian workers       in the heavy rain. They were probably on their way to the working place near my home. I went out and passed them my      . I told them they should take and keep it. They were surprised by my action. They were very grateful to me, probably          why a stranger was offering such kindness. I was so relaxed and happy that day.

If you have a brother or sister, you already know you are different from each other. You live together in the same house and the same parents, but you have different personalities.
Why is this? One possible reason is the way your parent treat you. First –born children receive all the attention from their parents. Most families have twice as many photos of a first-born than any other child. Parents usually give first-born more responsibilityand depend on them to take care of younger brothers and sisters. As a result, first -born are often responsible, hard-working, and jealous. They often want to do well at school and work. There are more first-born American Presidents, for example, George Bush, George Washington, andLyndon Baines Johnson-than second or last-born children.
When a second child arrives, parents are more relaxed. The second child has to competewith the first-born for the parents, attention and love.

The idea of what shaking the head means is not always the same in different countries. Maybe some visitors would be surprised when they first come to India. When they talk to an Indian, they would find he would often shake his head. The visitors might think that the Indian doesn’t like what they say. But in fact, they would be completely wrong.
Indians always shake their heads when they talk to others. It doesn’t mean “No”. If someone wants to visit India, he should know this, or he will be in trouble.
One day, a foreign officer went to India on business. He hired a car and asked an Indian to drive him. When he told his driver to take him to his office, the Indian shook his head at once. The officer said again and the driver shook his head again. At last the officer, of course, got angry.
“How dare you refuse my order?” he shouted, “Drive me to my office at once!”
The driver answered in quite a loud voice, too. “Yes, sir!” But to the officer’s surprise, the driver shook his head at the same time.
The car started and the foreign officer was now too surprised to say a word. He thought about it for a while, and then he nodded with a smile, “‘No’ means ‘Yes’ here!”

Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job. Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can't eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places.
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus(腐殖質(zhì)), which looks like black earth. It is rich with the kinds of things that feed plants and help them grow.
小題1:Where is the rubbish put after it is taken outside of city?
A．On the mountainB．In the water
