When one man offered to take a woman stranger's baby so that she could rest on a recent flight, many people on the plane watched it.

“It was so touching,” one passenger, Andrea Byrd said. She shot a photo of the man carrying the baby up and down the aisle（通道） and posted it on Facebook, where it's since gone viral.

“I was in tears,” Byrd wrote in the post, which has been shared almost 100,000 times. “Not because he was white and she was black... but because it showed me today that there are, still good people out there in a world full of evil.”

The Southwest Airlines flight was heading from Minne- apolis to Atlanta on September 5.

The mom, Monica Nelson, who is pregnant, said she had been nervous about traveling alone with her 20- month-old son Luke. When he grew annoyed and wouldn't rest, the man seated next to them surprised her by offering to help, she said. He walked up and down the aisle holding the boy, soothing him to sleep.

“It was such a relief because I was a little worried traveling with him without my husband there to help out,” said Nelson, a teacher who lives in Atlanta. “I'm still very grateful- he was so kind.”

She said the man's name is Rcid, and she learned that he also has a son named Luke.

Byrd said she was particularly touched by the scene because she has two children of her own and could put herself in the mom's shoes. Now their story has touched thousands of people across the world, reminding people how powerful a simple act of kindness can be.

“It's good to know the world is not all bad,” Nelson said, “There are some really great people out there.”

1.How did the man help the woman in the flight?

A.He helped the baby to feel relaxed.

B.He gave his own seat to the woman.

C.He carried the baby up and down in the air.

D.He posted a photo of the woman on Facebook.

2.What was the result after Andrea Byrd posted the photo online?

A.The man suddenly became successful.

B.So many people were touched by the story.

C.Monica Nelson decided not to take a flight again.

D.The young mom and the man became good friends.

3.What does the underlined word soothing mean in paragraph 5?

A.To please somebody to make him sleep for long.

B.To ease somebody to make him feel comfortable.

C.To force somebody to be quiet and silent soon.

D.To sing songs to make him feel happy slowly.

I promised to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.

The idea had occurred to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was reading a passage about husbands being thoughtful of their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.

And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the doctor and said, “That new yellow sweater looks good on you.”

“Oh, Tom, you noticed,” she said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled.

After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I changed my mind. We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.

So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole vacation passed.

There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. On the last night at our cottage, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.

“What’s the matter?” I asked her.

“Tom,” she said in a voice filled with distress, “do you know something I don’t?”

“What do you mean?”

“Well… that checkup I had several weeks ago… our doctor… did he tell you something about me? Tom, you’ve been so good to me… am I dying?”

It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing.

“No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”

1.What do”No ifs, ands or buts”in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A.Unnecessarily. B.Unexpectedly.

C.Impossibly. D.Unconditionally.

2.Why did Tom try to be a loving husband and father?

A.Evelyn looked lovely in her sweater.

B.Evelyn suffered a deadly disease.

C.He regretted about his past behaviors.

D.He had made lots of money in Wall Street.

3.What does the underlined sentence probably mean?

A.Tom thought Evelyn’s words were funny.

B.It took Tom a while to understand Evelyn’s words.

C.Tom’s heart sank suddenly on hearing Evelyn’s words.

D.Tom tried to prevent Evelyn knowing the truth about her illness.

4.What can we infer about Evelyn’s feeling towards her husband’s change?

A.Relaxed and happy. B.Pleased and grateful.

C.Pleased but sorrowful. D.Surprised but pleased.

Last year, I was on a plane with my friend, waiting for it to take off. The pilot’s voice was heard throughout the plane: “Sorry for the delay, ladies and gentlemen. Our engines don’t work. We are going to jump-start them. Once we get them going, we’ll get up in the air and see what happens.”

That was all he said. “See what happens?” Shouldn’t we have had a better plan than that? At that point. I could only laugh nervously. One woman started crying, “Oh no! We are going to crash!’’ There were sighs of hopelessness and anxiety, and we hadn’t even taken off yet.

The pilot even seemed unhappy. He told us our one engine was working double time, and his plan was to get up in the air and see what happens! Then we did. We got up in the air, and what happened? Nothing. We arrived in Norfolk, and no sooner had the wheels touched down than applause burst out as everyone on the airplane breathed a sigh of relief.

All too often, people stop trying to achieve their goals just because they don’t have a guaranteed (有保证的) result. But success will never be guaranteed. The best thing that you can do is just get up in the air, and see what happens. While I do prefer planning better than “see what happens” when it comes to flying, it really isn’t such a bad idea for life.

If your effort is to build a business then get up in the air and see what happens! Don’t give yourself all the reasons why you can’t. Do not wait until you have everything you need. You never will!

If your goal is to start a friendship, say “Hello”, get up in the air and see what happens! The results could be very rewarding. If your goal is to learn a new skill, get up in the air and see what happens! It might not be as difficult as your think. It could be fun!

1.How did the author feel when the pilot said the engines didn’t work?

A. Disappointed.　　 B. Anxious.

C. Curious.　　　　 D. Relieved.

2.The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means 　　　　 .

A. to think carefully before you make friends

B. to start to fly first to see what will happen in the sky

C. to make an effort even if the result is uncertain

D. to get up from the chair and greet somebody

3.What can be the best title for the passage?

A. We Will See What Happens

B. I Survived an Adventurous Flight

C. The Pilot Risked Our Lives

D. Making Plans Is Better Than Taking Chances
