“Yes, he should be praised and we must write a letter to the company,” said a second passenger. “That's right,” another lady said, “I wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor.” Just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conductor and said , “Excuse me, but can I know your name, please? Your excellent service must be praised.”

The next time you go grocery shopping, try speaking to other customers. One summer day, I took a smile and a warm heart into a small store in Oregon and got far more than groceries.

I love fresh produce(農(nóng)產(chǎn)品) in the store, and not just for the amazing colors provided by summer's bounty (慷慨) or the chance to joy over new choices from other countries. It's also because I just love watching people pick their produce.

The day I was there I found a sale on amazing cherry tomatoes—along with a woman in her late 70s. Despite the fact that we were strangers, we began to discuss apples. She noted a problem with the Pink Ladies. "They tasted like I was eating an unripe green apple from the tree," she said, twisting her face as if still tasting the sour apple.

I wondered if this is something most of my generation can even remember doing. I surely do. I mentioned that I often could not resist the green yet tempting fruit swinging from an apple tree. This was the start for a series of discussions as we shopped-covering such topics as nutrition, new foods and the quality of produce.

By this time a third woman had joined in our conversation. The three of us continued along, unexpected friends, chatting about family size and the troubles a mom might have serving healthful foods that please the whole family.

Eventually we all went our separate ways, but in the dairy(奶制品) section I heard a small voice say, "I finally caught up with you." It was the first woman I'd talked to, extending a bag of apricots(杏) to me. "I don't know if your family will eat these," she added, "but they have a super deal on them."

Again I was brought back to my childhood, when I also ate apricots straight from the tree. My mouth watered at the remembered flavor.

The old lady didn't realize that she'd given me far more than produce. With that offering came a sense of community, a flashback to days when it was OK to talk to a stranger. She brought back memories of summer fruits right from the tree—and a feeling that somehow those apricots were a thank-you for sharing my time with her in a very unlikely place.

1.One reason the author likes fresh produce in grocery shop is that ________.

A. she enjoys observing people selecting fresh produce

B. she likes watching people tasting fresh produce

C. she produces fresh produce herself

D. she sells fresh produce herself

2.What might be the problem with the Pink Ladies noted by the old lady?

A. Their price was too high.

B. Their color was too green.

C. Their taste was too sour.

D. Their size was too small.

3.Why did the old lady bring a bag of apricots to the author?

A. She found the apricots were on sale in the shop.

B. She learned that the author wanted to buy apricots.

C. She wanted to send the apricots as a gift to the author.

D. She knew that the author's family liked eating apricots.

4.According to the author, what is the extra value of grocery shopping?

A. It adds flavor and color to her boring daily life.

B. It helps her to see the importance of family life.

C. It gives her a chance to learn about nutrition knowledge.

D. It brings her unexpected friendship and sweet memories.

1．At first sight the planet Mars（火星）does not appear very welcoming to any kind of life．It has very little oxygen and water，the temperature at night is below 50degrees and winds of 100miles （161kilometers）per hour cause severe dust storms．However，the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it at some time in the past，and it is believed that there would be enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melted．Although there is no life on the Mars now，some scientists think there may have been some form of life a long time ago．At that time，the planet had active volcanoes（火山）； the atmosphere was thicker and warmer； and there was water．In fact，in some ways the Mars may have been similar to the Earth，where life exists．
