How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter,rude boss,or an insensitive employee      your day?
One day I was in a taxi and we headed    __ the airport. We were driving in the       lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes,slide sideways,and at the very last moment our car stopped and narrowly      the other car by just inches!The driver of the other car looked around and started      at us.
My taxi driver just      and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really     . So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!” This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”.
He    that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of    ,full of frustration,full of anger,and full of disappointment. As their garbage      up,they need a place to dump (倒) it and sometimesthey’ll dump it on     . Don’t take it personally. Just smile,wave,wish them well,and move on.
Believe me. You’ll be more   . Don’t take their garbage and      it to other people at work,at home,or on the streets, Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with     . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s      in your life. Roy Baumeister,a psychology researcher from Florida State University,found in his extensive research that you      bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories rather easily, and you      them more frequently.
So...Love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you      it!
When you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”,you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by      go of the bad. Have a Garbage Free Day!Have a marvelous,garbage-free day!The seeds you plant today      the harvest you reap tomorrow.

Gift Idea
The other day I was shopping for Grandma when I realized I had no gift ideas at all.It was not a birthday gift or anything like that.It was simply sort of a hello gift.That is how we do things in my family.We don't really give gifts for special occasions.Instead, we occasionally just give presents to each other to tell other people that we are thinking about them.
That was why I wanted a gift for Grandma.But it was like my imagination had dried up. I have gone through all of the gift ideas in previous years, fruits, wines, cheeses, little handmade crafts, and anything else that you can give to a grandmother.I had even given her gift watches, and CDs.What else was there?
I have always found gift ideas for men a little bit easier than for women, because for men, you can always get the usual things, such as video games, power tools and things like that.With a woman's gift idea, however, you have to know more about her.You cannot just get someone a book or a CD.You have to know all about her taste in movies, music, and literature.
My grandmother likes to read a lot, but what she likes is always pretty popular.I didn't want to get her a book that she might not like, but I was running out of time.I needed a gift idea for this weekend and went to visit her.After all, I hadn't seen her for a long time.I wanted to give her a gift so she would not feel ignored.
Finally, I came up with the perfect gift idea.I made a collection of all the stories I had written in the past year.It wasn't a typical gift idea like a bunch of flowers, but it really worked in the situation.You see, I am a writer and my grandma has always been my fan.
Anyway, I had been learning about bookbinding recently, and had pretty much mastered the art.I figured that I would add a little bit of handmade artwork to the stories, bind it altogether, and give it to her.It took hours to complete, but it was well worth the effort.She absolutely loved it.
小題1:The writer chose a gift for Grandma to _____.
A.celebrate a special family occasion
B.please her during a weekend visit
C.congratulate her on her birthday
D.beg her pardon for ignoring her
小題2:What gift did the writer finally decide to give his grandma?
A.Gift watches.
B.A bunch of flowers.
C.Artwork made by hand.
D.Stories written by himself.
小題3:How does the writer feel about giving gifts to women?
A.Interesting.B.Challenging.
C.Time-wasting.D.Popular.
小題4:We can learn from the passage that ______.
A.the writer is a successful novelist
B.most people are particular about gifts
C.the writer's grandma has a good taste in art
D.the writer's family will give gifts on regular days

While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I noticed a man coming toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to       his family.
First he moved to his youngest son as he laid down his bags. They gave each other a long, loving hug.       they separated, I heard the father say, “It’s so good to see you, son. I missed you so much!” His son smiled somewhat shyly and replied softly, “Me, too, Dad!”
Then the man stood up, gazed in the       of his oldest son and said, “You’re already quite the young man. I love you very much, Zach!” They too hugged a most loving, tender hug.
After several       , he turned to his wife and declared, “I’ve saved the best for last!” and      to give his wife the longest, most passionate kiss I       remember seeing.
For an instant they       me of newlyweds(新婚夫婦), but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn’t possibly be. I puzzled about it for a moment and gathered my courage to      ask, “Wow! How long have you been married?”
“Almost twelve years.” he replied,       breaking his gaze from his lovely wife’s face. “Well then, how long have you been away?” I asked. The man      turned and looked at me,. “Two whole days”
Two days? I was      . By the intensity of the greeting, I had       he’d been gone for at least several weeks — if not months. I know my expression      me. Hoping to stop our conversation politely and continue with my       for my friend, I said almost immediately, “I hope my        is still that passionate after twelve years!”
The man suddenly       smiling. He looked me straight in the eye, and with power that burned right into my soul, he told me something that left me a        person. He told me, “Don’t    , friend …decide!” Then with wonderful smile, he and his family turned and left together.
I was still watching that special family walk just out of sight when my friend        to me and asked, “What are you looking at?” Without      , and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, “ My future!”

The day before Mother’s Day, Mrs. Berry asked her students to make a card for their mothers. She passed out paper and pieces of cloth.
Mary looked for a while at the blue cloth and began to cut it. Then she      her paper in half and began writing. When Mary finally looked at the message the teacher gave on the paper, she noticed something else. She felt her      grow hot---she hadn’t heard that anyone who didn’t have a mother could make one for a grandmother or an aunt.
As her teacher      to her, Mary tried covering her card with her arm, but Mrs. Berry gently lifted it so that she could      it. Mary sat      , waiting for her to say something, but she saw a      roll down Mrs. Berry’s face. She had never made Mrs. Berry so      .
When school was over, Mary      until all the other kids left so that she could apologize . “I’m sorry for not listening. I’ll make another card      you want. I’ll do it at home and      it tomorrow.”

“My Mother’s Day card. I know you’re sad because I didn’t do it      .”
“Mary, that was the      card in the whole class. It was so      that it made me cry. ”
Mary was so      that she ran out of the classroom.
When her father came home from work that night, Mary      to give him the card early .
On the front of the card was a      of Mary’s father, with a blue piece of cloth cut like his hair. Inside the card she had written:
Dear Dad,
I know you work really hard to be both a      and a father. I want to thank you and       you a Happy Mother’s Day!
Love
Mary

Cameron thought of himself as merely organized.He certainly did not consider that he took great pains over anything ,he did just enough to get it right.Exactly right, of course as he was fond of telling his staff, “if it’s not exactly right, it’s wrong”.Occasionally a worker might be sad on hearing these words, because it meant another hour or so of going over the same bit of work, correcting the mistakes which Cameron had patiently pointed out.And doing the corrections exactly right of course.
