When I was in fourth grade,I worked part-time as a paperboy.Mrs.Stanley was one of my customers.She'd watch me coming down her street,and by the time I'd biked up to her doorstep,there'd be a cold drink waiting.I'd sit and drink while she talked.
   Mrs.Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, "Mr.Stanley and I went shopping this morning." she'd say.The first time she said that,soda(汽水) went up my nose.
   I told my father how Mrs.Stanley talked as if Mr.Stanley were still alive.Dad said she was probably lonely,and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile,and maybe she'd work it out of her system.So that's what I did,and it turned out Dad was right.After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery(墓地).
   I finally quit delivering newspapers and didn't see Mrs.Stanley for several years.Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser(募捐活動).She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy.Four years before,she'd had to offer her paperboy a drink to have someone to talk with.Now she had friends.Her husband was gone,but life went on.
   I live in the city now,and my paperboy is a lady named Edna with three kids.She asks me how I'm doing.When I don't say "fine",she sticks around to hear my problems.She's lived in the city most of her life,but she knows about community.Community isn't so much a place as it is a state of mind.You find it whenever people ask how you're doing because they care,and not because they're getting paid to do so.Sometimes it's good to just smile,nod your head and listen.

  • 3.At 1,345 meters above sea level,Ben Nevis is definitely not the world's most difficult mountain to climb.But things get considerably tricky if instead of hiking shoes you put on a pair of 5-inch high heels,especially if you're a guy.One English teenager recently proved that it was not impossible.
       Ben Conway,a 19-year-old art student from London,recently took up the challenge as a way to stand out in an application for a scholarship for the School of Communication Arts in Brixton.He started his unusual high-heel climb at 8 a.m.,on June 27,and was joined by Callum MacKenzie Allen,a friend from his art foundation year,who videotaped the whole thing for a two-minute video that served as his application project.The whole climb took five hours and wasn't the smoothest experience.
       Halfway up Ben Navis,one of his shoes broke,so he had to tape the shoes to his feet to make sure they stayed on.The weather didn't make it easy for him either,as he claimed that it rained pretty much the whole time,and he had to go against 40 to 50 miles an hour winds.Due to these difficult conditions,Ben and his friend had to turn back after reaching 900 meters up the mountain.
       Apart from providing a unique art school application project,the high-heel climb also allowed the 19-year-old to raise some money for worthy causes,like Sal's Shoes,which provides footwear for barefoot children around the world.
       "Raising money for charity brings happiness to people's lives and if I can do something ridiculous and bring someone happiness,then that's what it's all about",Ben said.

    (1)What can replace the underlined word "tricky" in Paragraph 1?

    A.Pleasant.
    B.Boring.
    C.Tough.
    D.Smooth.
    (2)Why did Allen videotape the high-heel climb for Ben?

    A.To prove nothing is impossible.
    B.To record a special experience.
    C.To promote their friendship.
    D.To assist in Ben's application.
    (3)What does Paragraph 3 focus on?

    A.The difficulties in the climb.
    B.The climbing route.
    C.The terrible weather.
    D.The unexpected incident.
    (4)What can best describe Ben's story?

    A.Puzzling.
    B.Inspiring.
    C.Exciting.
    D.Frightening.
