Question

On a cold winter afternoon, Susan was walking home from a supermarket. She was feeling a little tired, as she was carrying her shopping bags. They were so heavy that she decided to have a rest in the park. She walked towards the gate of the park. She noticed a poor man walking out of a restaurant in front of her. The man was holding a paper bag. He walked to a rubbish bin(垃圾箱) and started looking through it.

   Susan suddenly felt sad. She knew this man would take all that he could get, so she went up to him and gave him some fruit. The man looked up in surprise and took what she gave him.

   A big smile appeared on his face and she felt very happy. Then he said, “Wow! First someone gave me this sandwich, then the orange juice and now some delicious fruit. This is my daughter’s lucky day. Thank you, girl.” Then he went away, singing a song.

   Just then, Susan understood what the saying “Giving is getting” really meant. Everyone in the world needs help, everyone can offer help and everyone will be helped by showing kindness.

   Giving sometimes doesn’t cost much, but it means a lot to the people who you help. The man’s happiness at that moment comes into Susan’s mind every time she has the chance to help others.

【解析】

试题解析:本文大意：在一个寒冷的下午，苏珊正从超市走回家，她感觉有点累，因为背着购物袋。包太沉了，她决定去公园休息一下，走向公园门口时她注意到一个穷人在她前面走出饭店，手里拿着一个纸袋子，走向垃圾箱开始找东西。苏珊给了他几个水果，他吃惊地抬起头接过她给他的东西。他说先是有人给他三明治，然后桔子汁，现在是水果，今天是她女儿的幸运日。然后他唱着歌离开了。苏珊明白格言“给就是得到”的真正含义。给的东西不值多少钱，但对于需要帮助的人意义重要。
