My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other cars 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 the 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. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump（倾卸）it. And if you let them, theyll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you, dont take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on.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 work, at home, on the streets? It was that day I said, “Im not going to do it any more.”I began to see garbage trucks. I see the load theyre carrying. I see them coming to drop it off. And like my taxi driver, I dont make it a personal thing; I just smile, wave, and move on.Good leader 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 whats important.61. The driver of the black car got angry because _.A. he couldnt control his carB. he was in a bad moodC. he met with a garbage truckD. the taxi driver made a mistake62. Who acted like a garbage truck in the incident described in the first two paragraphs?A. The writerB. The taxi driverC. The black car driverD. None of them63.When the writer said “Im not going to do it any more”, he meant hed no longer _.A. see garbage trucksB. have garbage dumped on himC. dump garbage on othersD. be a garbage truck himself64.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Ignore unpleasantness and stick to your tasksB. Try to be good leaders as well as good parentsC. Always be kind and hard workingD. Do things quickly so as to be ready for the nextBHillary Clinton, 59, with her famous “Im in, and Im in to win” 2008 Race, began her e-mail to supporters, saying “I want you to join me not for the campaign but for a conversation about the future of our country. Lets talk, lets chat.”Mrs. Clinton said that she would focus on “practical changes” in foreign, domestic, and national security policy, such as finding “a right end” to the Iraq war, expanding health insurance, pursuing greater energy independence and strengthening Social Security and Medicare, which satisfies many American people.In her statement, Mrs. Clinton also frankly talked about an issue that worries her a lot. Whether she can, in fact, win the presidency, some voters still connect her with the Clinton government.“I have never been afraid to stand up for my beliefs,” Mrs. Clinton said on the Website. “After nearly $70 million spent against my campaigns in New York and two wins, I can say I know how Republicans think, how they operate, and how to beat them.”If successful, she would be the first female nominee（被提名者）of a major American political party, and the first wife of a former president to seek a return to the White House. President Bill Clinton left office in 2000 after two terms marked by economical expansion and a series of official examinations of his personal life and the Clintons business dealings. But the successes and shadows of those years will likely affect Mrs. Clinton, who was once an important adviser and caused some disagreements in his government.Yet Mrs. Clinton has become a major political figure in America.65. By saying “Im in to win”, Hillary probably means that _.A. she is online to get peoples support to run for presidencyB. she is going to run for election and work hard to winC. she is online to get more support and shes sure she will winD. she has decided to run for president and work hard to win66. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. Clinton left office only because of his personal lifeB. Hillary was once deeply involved in her husbands governmentC. all her voters strongly support her and believe in herD. the whole election campaign costs Hillary nearly $70 million67. What many American people are deeply concerned about is _.A. how to solve the energy problemB. when and how to find a proper solution to the Iraq warC. what practical things Hillary will do for themD. how to strengthen Social Security and Medicare68. The authors attitude toward Hillary is _.A. criticalB. positiveC. negativeD. objectiveCGlynis Davis:I first piled on the pounds when I was in the family way and I couldnt lose them afterwards. Then I joined a slimming club. My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months. I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked. But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits. I told myself Id lose the weight at slimming classes in the New Yearbut it didnt happen. Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on. Id lost will power and tried to believe that a few bags of fish and chips didnt make any difference but the scales dont lie.Roz Juma:To be honest, I never weigh myself any more. Ive learnt to be happy with myself. It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips. My idea is simple. You shouldnt be too much thinking about food and dieting. Instead, you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a super-thin body. This is obviously the size Im meant to be and, most of all, Im happy with it.Lesley Codwin:I was very happy about winning Young Slimmer of the year. Id look at the mirror unable to believe this slim lady was me. That might have been my problemperhaps from then on I didnt pay any attention to myself. Winning a national competition makes everything worse because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you. I feel a complete failure because Ive put on weight again.Ros Langford:Before moving in with my husband Gavin, Id always been about 110 pounds, but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year. Even so often I try to go on a diet Im really good on a few days, then end up having the childrens leftovers or eating happily chocolatemy weakness. Id like to be slim, but right now my duty is the children and home. I might take more exercise when my kids are older.69. What do you think the four women were all talking about?A. Their own weigh-losing matter.B. Their life after marriage.C. Their work as a house wife.D. Different diets they like.70.What does the underlined word “scales” possibly mean?A. The coach in the slimming clubB. A kind of tool to measure weightC. Glynis Daviss dear husbandD. The salesperson in a food shop71.Which of the following best describes each of the four womens attitudes towards slimming?1. Glynis Davisa. I put on weight soon after I got married.2. Roz Jumab. Fame doesnt necessarily mean success.3. Lesley Codwinc. Facts speak much louder than words4. Ros Langfordd. I like myself as I am, and to be what you are.A. 1a; 2b; 3c; 4d B. 1c; 2b; 3d; 4aC. 1d; 2a; 3b; 4c D. 1c; 2d; 3b; 4a72.Where are these short passages most likely to be taken from?A. Talks on the airB. Advertisements on the wallC. Books in a library D. Magazines for childrenDEven minor cuts can become infected if they are left untreated. Any break in the skin can let bacteria enter the body. These infections can spread throughout the body. But taking good care of any injury that breaks the skin can help prevent an infection.Medical experts say the first step in treating a wound is to use clean water. Lake or ocean water should not be used. To clean the area around the wound, experts suggest using a clean cloth and soap. They say there is no need to use products like hydrogen peroxide（双氧水）or iodine（碘酒）.It is important to remove all dirt and other material from the wound. After the wound is clean, use a small amount of antibiotic ointment（抗生素药膏）or cream. Studies have shown that these products can help in healing. They also help to keep the surface of the wound from becoming dry. Finally, cover the cut with a clean bandage while it heals. Change the bandage daily and keep the wound clean.As the wound heals, inspect for signs of infection including increased pain, redness and fluid around the cut. A high body temperature is also a sign of infection. If a wound seems infected, let the person rest. Physical activity can spread the infection. If there are signs of infection, seek help from a doctor or other skilled medical providers.For larger wounds or in case bleeding does not stop quickly, use direct pressure. Place a clean piece of cloth on the area and hold it firmly in pla
