One evening as I was leaving the store, I noticed a man with a very old sleeping bag going through the garbage can nearby. He pulled out fast food trash bags and inspected all that was in the thrown-away bags, but he never stopped anyone to beg for money or anything else as they entered or left my store. After he went through the entire trash can, he carefully cleaned up the area and wrapped up the food he found in the dirty hamburger wrapper. My heart literally hurt for him.

I decided to help him. I got out of my car and asked him if I could buy him something to eat. He thanked and followed me to the fast food place around the block. I bought him the biggest meal they had on the menu. He didn't ask for anything and the only request was a big glass of hot sweet tea to go with his meal. When I brought him the food, he was so thankful. He told me how much he appreciated the meal.

I wanted to give him some money. He shook his head. I asked him if I could buy a few meals and put it on a gift card for him. He agreed.

As I handed him the gift card, he broke down crying. He told me that he prayed for me today. I wasn't sure what he meant (I was guessing he was praying for me for what I did for him) so I thanked him.

“NO, I prayed that God would send someone to buy me a hot meal today … and he sent you!” Tears traced down his checks.

I didn't know what to say… I always pray over my food, but I've never prayed for a meal. I've never doubted that I wouldn’t be able to eat …Tears began to fill my eyes. Oh my…h(huán)ow blessed am I…Maybe God used me to answer this man’s prayer.

Everybody has a story though I didn't know his, but I had done what God wanted me to. God put him in my path …I knew he did. I took him to my office.

A. street lover B. beggar C. hamburger lover D. homeless man

2.According to the passage, what kind of person was the man

A. A nice lonely person with a sleeping bag

B. A lonely, serious person with a trash bag

3.Why did the man break down crying when the writer gave him the gift card?

C. He had finally talked to God. D. He finally got what he needed.

4.What could probably happen in the writer’s office?

閱讀短文, 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。

Everyone speaks a language, but language is not just for talking. It is our most important communication tool. Through language, we can tell other people what we think, how we feel, and what we need. In fact, civilization (文明) itself depends on our ability to communicate.

In the long history of human, languages survive, grow, disappear, move from place to place, and change with time. Now, some languages are ancient, and others are new. There are about 6,000 different living languages around the world today, and there are many thousands more that are no longer in use. Languages might sound different, but they are thought to have come from a single ancient language. It would be quite interesting if we search for stories about the creation and disappearance of languages.

Nobody knows exactly when people first started using language. Some scientists say that people first spoke to one another about two million years ago.

Today, our sophisticated (復(fù)雜的) languages get fully used in the magazines, novels, science books, and movies that fill our libraries and bookstores. As human, it is important that we can tell the long stories, which separate us from the great apes (類人猿). Other animals may use various methods to communicate, but we humans send complicated messages through space and time.

Throughout history there were many languages that served as a lingua franca (通用語)— a common language that could serve as a bridge between people of different cultures. Today, English is the main language that plays that role around the world. Many people have some ability to use English. Most of these people have studied English as a second or third language.

Language helps people to work together, to share knowledge, feelings, and build up modern societies. The development of humanity’s many languages was an important process that helped humans move forward toward civilization.

1.Is language our most important communication tool?

2.How many living languages are there around the world today?

3.When did people start to speak to one another, according to some scientists?
