Last Saturday on the way to the mall, two children, a boy and a girl, came running towards me with bottles on their hands, asking if I wanted bottled water. It was a surprising gesture. I was wondering if they were doing fund-raising. I knelt and asked them where their parents were and how much a bottle of water cost. Then two adult women came up to me explaining what the children were doing. “We are teaching the children to give without anything in return. We are teaching people to accept without giving in return. ”
Two mothers had bought bottled water and placed a sticker(小贴纸)on all bottles with five different quotes(引述):
1. Smile at everyone. You’ll never know when someone may need it.
2. If Plan A does not work, there are 25 more letters in the alphabets.
3. Have a thirst for life. Every day is filled with possibilities.
4. In your thirst for knowledge, be sure you don’t drown in all the information.
5. Dig your well before you’re thirsty.
The bottle I have has quoted No.5. A sudden change of attitude opened up between me, the mothers and the children. We are no longer strangers to each other. We were having such a great time chatting and I ended up helping them give away the rest of the bottled water.
One young lady was so thankful that she happily accepted the water and said it was the best thing that happened to her all day since she had a bad day at work. A man refused and walked away saying “no thanks”. A couple kept on bowing to us in gratitude. When it was all done, the children and I were giving each other high-five. It was so much fun. I think I had more fun doing this than the mothers and the children.
1.How did the author feel when he was offered bottled water?
A. Embarrassed B. Surprised
C. Excited D. Disappointed
2.Different quotes were placed on the bottles to ________.
A. inspire others to think positively.
B. show how rich and colorful our life is.
C. encourage people to get more bottled water.
D. explain why at times abandonment is necessary facing trouble.
3.What did the author do after chatting with them?
A. Buy the rest of the bottled water.
B. Give away some money for charity.
C. Decide to meet with them regularly.
D. Join them in being kind to strangers.
4.What do we know from the last paragraph?
A. Children had more fun from this than adults.
B. This random act of kindness is warmly welcomed.
C. People responded quite differently to this activity.
D. The author learned a lot from this random act of kindness.

Have you listened to music on an iPod? Used a computer at home? Those are just two of the ways your life was touched by the work of Steve Jobs.
Jobs, one founder of Apple Computers, died on Wednesday, October 5, 2011 at the age of 56. He had been fighting with cancer since 2004.
Steven Jobs was born in Los Altos, California. He and his childhood friend, Steve Wozniak, designed and built the first Apple computer in his parents’ garage in the 1970s. The Apple II, built when Jobs was just 21 years old, was the first personal computer to be widely sold to the public.

I still remember the last time I went to the playground with two of my children. It had rained during the night and the playground was very muddy (泥泞的). They had just put on clean clothes, so I was a little worried about the mud on the playground. It was not long before Kathy got her beautiful skirt dirty on the playground. She dug through the rocks. I was about to blame (指责) her for getting her clothes dirty when she ran towards me with a smile on her face. When she got to me, she handed me a little heart-shaped rock and said, “Here, Mom! Here is a heart for you —just because I love you! Keep it!” With tears in my eyes, I thanked her.
Should I blame her for getting her clothes muddy? No way! I still have that little heart-shaped rock. It is one of the best gifts that I have ever received. I realized that many times it was not necessary for us adults to worry about the small things our children did. Let them do what they’d like to.
I will spend a lot more time on the playground with my children. I’m sure I will learn a lot from them. It makes me think of the days when my grandfather told me, “You would not enter the kingdom of happiness until you pretended (假装) to be a small child.”
1.At first, the author wanted to blame Kathy because she __________.
A.ran on the playground
B.dug through rocks
C.gave her a muddy rock
D.got her clothes dirty
2.The author was deeply moved by her daughter’s _____.
A.digging task on the playground
B.special way to show her love
C.smile on her face when running
D.love of the muddy playground
3.From Paragraph 2, we can learn that the author thought parents should _________.
A.not worry about the small things their children do
B.allow kids to do whatever they like
C.keep the presents given by children
D.not give too much care to their own children
4.The author’s grandfather’s words imply that _______.
A.children care more about happiness than adults
B.adults can not share children’s happiness
C.children may find happiness more easily in life
D.adults find it hard to know children’s happiness
