I often remember those good old days when life was 【小题1】(simple), and people were much more humane and gentler. Recently, to my surprise, I got an opportunity(机会)to experience that same warmth that I thought 【小题2】(disappear)from the world.

We entered a restaurant, 【小题4】(look)for some food and comfort. To our disappointment, all the tables 【小题5】(occupy)and no one seemed in 【小题6】 hurry to stand up. Suddenly, two young girls offered 【小题7】(give)their table to us although they had just got their order. They said they would enjoy their meal at home. We were grateful 【小题8】 them for their kindness. We thanked them sincerely. That day, I thought to 【小题9】(I)there still were some kind and polite youngsters 【小题10】 are willing to help others in this fast-moving and less caring world and my faith in humanity was brought back once again.

In October 2013, Davion Only made an appeal on the Internet. He had learned that his biological mother had died not long before. ”My name is Davion and I've been in foster care (寄养照管) since I was born," he said, “but I'm not giving up hope. "
The heartbreaking appeal spread quickly, and Only's foster agency received calls from more than 10,000 people. Only ended up travelling to Ohio to live with a family. But after Only got into a physical fight with one of his elder would-be brothers, the family changed their minds.
Back in Florida, Only passed through four different temporary homes over the following year, until he called Connie Going, his adoption case worker, to make a special request. Only had known Going for nearly ten years, and had asked every year if she would adopt him, but she always hesitated. “I always believed there was a better family than us out there," Going said in an interview. But last July, when Only called and asked again if she might adopt him, Going said something felt different. "When he asked me, my heart felt this ache and I just
knew he was my son," she said.
So Going, 52, invited Only to start spending time with the rest of her family-her two daughters, Sydney, 21, and Carly 17, and a son Taylor, 14, who she also adopted out of foster care.  Eventually, after seeing how well the arrangement was working, Going, who had rented a bigger home, started adopting Only. Only moved in with her family last December.He officially joined Going's family on April 22, 2015 when the adoption papers went through.
"Today, I feel blessed and honored to have been chosen to be the parent of all my children," Going said.
【小题1】By making the appeal, Davion Only hoped that
A.service in his foster agency would improve
B.his biological mother would come to him

【小题2】Davion Only didn't live with the family in Ohio because
A.he hated living with them
B.they finally refused to accept him
C.he has received another invitation
D.he often fought with his would-be brothers
【小题3】What do we know from Paragraph 3?
A.Davion Only had fun living in different homes.
B.Connie Going had cared about Davion Only for over ten years.
C.Davion Only had a strong desire to be adopted by Connie Going.
D.Connie Going believed she would give Davion Only what he wanted.

   Yesterday I was a bit early for a date so I stopped in at McDonald’s for a coffee. I think they make the best coffee. Two very pleasant young girls were working at the counter and the customer ahead was hard to please!

The young girl was sweaty and near tears. I only wanted coffee but I liked lots of milk in it. I really didn’t want to be difficult so I said, “You go ahead and add lots of milk and if it’s not enough, I’ll ask for more.” She smiled. She made a perfect coffee. I left her two pink candies as a tip (小费).

I went to her supervisor and let the leader know how well she dealt with such a difficult customer ahead of me. More of that needs to be done for young people starting out — probably the first job.

I remember how hard it was. I would have run away crying and quit, if it had been me yesterday serving those customers. I’d still be crying too.
