My wife and I were at a crowded grocery store not long ago. It was a weekday evening, cold and wet-and tense. People were carelessly blocking aisles, complaining and cutting one another off with their carts.

Things got worse at the checkout line. The cashier scanned a man’s discount card, but he misread the savings on her screen as an additional charge. He decided she was acting deliberately and began to argue.

“She is being spiteful (恶意的) !” he yelled. “This is unbelievable.”

Other customers looked away as the cashier tried to reason with him. She called a manager, who accompanied him to customer service. Shaken, she moved to the next customer in line.

We’ve all witnessed uncomfortable scenes like this in public places. The grocery scene was another example of how our trust in others has eroded. But it was also a teachable moment on how we can rebuild our faith-starting with just one person.

Back at the grocery store, my wife and I reached our uneasy cashier. I grabbed a bottle of water from a nearby cooler and handed it to her. “We felt bad about how that man treated you and wanted to buy this for you.” I said. Her face lit up, and we talked as she scanned our items. She told us she had been working that evening through severe foot pain and would be having surgery later that week. We wished her well in her recovery, and she thanked us as we left.

Those are the balancing acts, the moments of responding social and emotional pain with healing, which will add up to restore trust among people. You can start that pattern in someone else’s life, even in a place as ordinary as the neighborhood grocery store.

1.Why did the man at the checkout line argue with the cashier?

A. The cashier called a manager to help her.

B. Someone jumped the queue waiting to check out.

C. There was something wrong with his discount card.

D. He believed the cashier charged him more on purpose.

2.The underlined word “eroded” in Paragraph 5 probably means ________.

A. changed B. increased

C. faded D. formed

3.The author bought a bottle of water for the cashier because ________.

A. he thought the cashier might feel a little bit thirsty

B. he knew she had gone through much trouble recently

C. he wanted to restore the trust between her and the man

D. he wanted to comfort her after the terrible experience just now

4.The last paragraph in the passage is intended to ________.

A. add a warning B. make a suggestion

C. introduce a topic D. present an argument

--Hello, Tom. Long time no see. Where were you?

--Oh, not only my parents but also I________ Paris for a month.

A. has gone to               B. stayed in

高一英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

When we were kids, my little sister Madison and I were the M&Ms—my parents' two daughters. 1. So it was quite a surprise when my mom and dad sat us down to let us know that baby number three was on the way when I was 10 years old. However, as soon as my brother Mac was born, he completely stole my heart and I have learned many things from having a young brother.

● 2.　

Having a baby in your life means watching your parents endlessly change diapers (尿布), make bottles, and wipe spit-ups every once in a while. I was allowed to do those things and I learned just how important it was to take care of this little life before I even hit middle school.

●　 You watch a child grow up.

3.I remember how excited my family was when we discovered how fast of a reader he was in kindergarten. I'll never forget telling him bedtime stories before he went to sleep at night. It's cool to think about the entirety of his life and how far he has come.

●　 You teach your brother life lessons.

From a young age, my brother watched my sister and me overcome personal challenges, go to high school, and, worst of all, get our hearts broken. 4. Watching his sisters go through life's difficulties has taught him how he should act when he gets older.

Now Mac is 11 years old. I have no shame in telling people that one of my best friends is an 11-year-old boy. In fact, our family without him is unimaginable. 5.　

A．You stay in the know.

B．You learn about responsibility early on.

C．We received a lot of attention, and we liked it that way.

D．All I can say is that my family wouldn't be happy without Mac.

E．Nothing makes Mac more upset than a mean guy who hurts a girl's feelings.

F．I remember the first time Mac crawled, walked, and said my name.

G．Thanks , Mom and Dad, for turning the M&Ms into the Three Musketeers.
