    閱讀下面短文,并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題。

We were driving in the right lane when, all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded. and missed the other car’s back end by just inches! The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head angrily and started yelling bad words at us. 

My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was friendly. So, I said, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to hospital!” And this was what my taxi driver told me, which I call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”.

Many people are like garbage trucks and they run around full of garbage, full of frustration , full of anger, and full of disappointment. And their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump(傾倒)it. And if you let them, they’ll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you, don’t take it personally. You just simile, wave, wish them well, and move on. You’ll be happy you did.

So this was it: “The Law of the Garbage Truck”. I started thinking: how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people: at home , on the streets? It was that day I said, “I’m not going to do that any more.”

I began to see garbage trucks. I see the burden they are carrying. I see them coming to drop it off. And like my taxi driver, I don’t                            . I just simile, wave, and move on.

Good leaders know they have to be ready for their next meeting. Good parents know that they have to welcome their children home from school with hugs and kisses. What about you? The mark of a successful person is how quickly they can get back their focus on what’s important.

Five years ago, Steven Gerrard fulfilled a boyhood dream when he was made captain of   Liverpool, the football club he   had supported all his life. As one of the best teams in the English Premier League, the captain's armband weighed heavy on a player who had only turned 23.

  But through a combination of individual brilliance on the pitch (球場) and a growing awareness of what being a skipper (隊長) is all about, Gerrard has gone on to make the captain's role his own.

He performed a rescue act for Liverpool by twice scoring as they came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 against Hull City on December 13.His efforts steered (帶領(lǐng)) the team to the top of the Premier League. “It's  easy for me to say we're a great team  and the squad's great,” said Gerrard.  “The hardest thing is to actually go out there and prove it on the pitch. I call the Premier League the bread and butter and I'm desperate for the title.”

Liverpool enjoyed some real success during the five years when Gerrard has been captain of the club—they've been to two Champions League finals and an FA Cup final, winning two out of three. But Gerrard believes he has learned more from being a captain “when things haven't gone too well”.

“You learn more from bad experiences really. Bad defeats, going out of competitions or failing short in the league, as captain, I feel more responsible, particularly when we get beaten,” he said. “I remember all those experiences and learn from all of that.”

 Gerrard grew up watching Liverpool. He joined the club's youth academy as a school boy. He then had tryouts with various clubs at 14, including Manchester United, which he claimed in his autobiography (自傳) was “to pressure Liverpool into giving me a contract.” He signed with the club in 1997.

 Gerrard has dedicated his entire career to Liverpool and he is confident that the club will start another legend soon. “You just expect that dynasty to come,” he said.

1.The passage is mainly about ________.

A.Gerrard's love of Liverpool

B.what kind of person Gerrard is

D.Gerrard as captain of the Liverpool football club

2.From the text, we can see that ________.

B.Gerrard did quite a good job in leading his team

C.Gerrrad intended to make the captain's role his own

D.Gerrrad has been confident of being a captain since chosen

3.Gerrard admitted that he learned more from ________.

A.try outs with various clubs

B.unsuccessful experiences

C.steering the team to the top

D.striving for the league title

4.From the last two paragraphs, we know that ________.

A.Gerrard compared Liverpool with other football clubs and finally decided on it

B.Gerrard was made captain soon after he signed with Liverpool

C.Gerrard believed the next season would be his dynasty

There’re five people at our table, including myself. I’ve already learnt a great deal about them in the short time we’ve been at sea, although we rarely meet except at meal times.

First of all, there’s Dr Stone. He’s a man of about sixty five, with gray hair and a friendly face. He gave up his work a short while ago and is now traveling round the world before he retires to some quiet country village. As a young man, he served for many years as a doctor in the army and visited many countries. He’s told us a lot about the city to which we are going.

Then there’s “Grandmother”. I call her that because her name escapes me. In spite of being a grandmother, she looks rather young, not more than fifty, she’s on her way to visit a daughter who went to Australia some years ago. Naturally she is very excited at the thought of seeing her again, and her three grandchildren, whom she has never seen.

Then there’s a man I don’t care for very much, an engineer by the name of Barlow. He has been on leave in England and is now returning to his work in Singapore.

The other person who sits at our table is Mrs. Hunt. I’ve found out hardly anything about her. She’s extremely quiet and rarely talks, except to consult(咨詢)the doctor about children’s various illness. She’s on her way to join her husband in India.

64. What can we know about Mr. Stone?

A. He is a doctor in the army now.

B. He is going to give up his work.
