Recently, I flew to Las Vegas to attend a meeting. As we were about to arrive, the pilot announced with apology that there would be a slight delay before setting down. High desert winds had forced the airport to close all but one runway. He said that we would be circling the city for a few minutes waiting to land. We were also told to remain in our seats meanwhile with our seat belts 1. (fasten) because there might be a few bumps. Well, that few minutes turned into about forty-five minutes, including a ride that would make a roller coaster 2. (pale) by comparison.

The movement was so sudden 3. several passengers felt sick and had to use airsickness bags. 4. you might guess, that’s not good thing to happen in a narrow space because it only serves to increase the discomfort of the situation.

About twenty minutes into the adventure, the entire airplane became very quiet. There was now a sense of anxiety and fear that could be distinctly noticed. Every passenger simply held on for dear life…5. one. A baby was having a good time! With each bump of the aircraft, he 6. let out a giggle of happiness. As I observed this, I realized that he didn’t know he was supposed to be afraid and worried about his safety. He 7. thought about the past nor about the future. Those are 8. we grown-ups have learned from experience. He was enjoying the ride because he 9. (not teach) to fear it. 10. (understand) this, I took a deep breath and sat back into my seat, pretending I was really on a roller coaster. I smiled for the rest of the flight.

It was several years ago when my wife asked me to meet her at the local department store on Black Friday morning. They had advertised a child's bike that she wanted to purchase for our son. We stood with a very large crowd, waiting for the manager to blow the whistle. After a while the whistle blew. It was like throwing a basket of chum into a tank of sharks. I told my wife that if we obtained a bike, fine, but if we did not, I was OK with that too.

As the boxes of bikes began to gradually decrease, I saw my opportunity to wrap my hands around the corner of one of them. I lifted it off and suddenly felt some mild resistance. I looked up to see one of the largest men I had ever seen in my life. Frightening was not enough to describe his presence. He was decorated with numerous leather belts with metal buttons around both arms and even his neck. Tattoos (纹身) were an obvious passion of his.

I started to loosen the box but he gently pushed it back in my direction and back into my hands. He then directed it into my shopping cart. He looked at me, smiled, and said, “Merry Christmas.”

My wife and I went to the checkout, paid for the bike and went home. All the way home I was thinking that this moment was by far the best Christmas gift I had ever received. The kindness of a human heart in a simple act of a stranger broke all preconceived notions (先入为主) I may have had. I will never forget it.

1.What does the underlined word “chum” mean in Paragraph1?

A.Gifts. B.Food.

C.Goods. D.Souvenirs.

2.Why did the author loosen the box when seeing the man?

A.The author didn't want to buy it. B.The man needed it more.

C.The author was frightened by the man. D.The man got the box first.

3.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.The Best Christmas Gift. B.The Largest Man I Have Ever Seen.

C.An Unforgettable Bike. D.A Shopping Experience.
