Business to business.‎ Two years ago I fell off the steps of a bus while climbing down and twisted my ankle. What followed was the usual way that is common in the US. A few hours later I was treated and discharged. What was uncommon was that I received extra care while going to ER(emergency room) and while I was in the hospital.‎ People were kind to me, men and women alike. They wheeled me into a private room instead of making me wait in the crowded waiting room. Someone came and asked me if the temperature is OK. When I said I was cold, he brought me a blanket and some magazines, in case I got bored. The nurses stopped by, making pleasant chats with me. People always came to ask me if I was in too much pain and if I needed anything…‎ There were other people who were brought in while I was waiting. Patients groaning in pain were given the care they needed and then ignored. My injury was not the priority, so while I was not pushed to the front of the line, my several hours’ stay in the hospital was made as pleasant as possible. Why would people do that? They gave others care, while I got kindness.‎ Like any other good looking, healthy, independent person, man or woman, it looks as if the world is nicer to rich people, and the world is nicer to attractive people. I’m not in the dating world. It’s not about free drinks and gifts. It’s about people being nice.‎ I’m grateful for any positive behavior because I know this is temporary. Eventually I will join the groups of the elderly, the weak and the seemingly unattractive. One thing I refuse to do is to make excuses for being attractive. I know it’s temporary. I know it’s the luck of the draw and I know that I’m just one of the many. Does it matter to my husband, my mother and my kids what I look like? No. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.‎ ‎29． What caused the author into deep thought?‎ ‎ A. She was given less care in the hospital.‎ ‎ B. Patients were only given physical care in the hospital.‎ ‎ C. She didn’t get treatment immediately in the hospital.‎ ‎ D. Other patients in the hospital didn’t get the same kindness as her.‎ ‎30．What can we know about the author?‎ ‎ A. She is an attractive lady. ‎ ‎ B. She shows great pity to old patients.‎ ‎ C. She doesn’t like free drinks or gifts. ‎ ‎ D. She was treated unequally in the hospital.‎ ‎31．Which of the following does the author agree with?‎ ‎ A. The hospital should treat attractive patients in preference to others.‎ ‎ B. The positive behavior that being attractive brings can last long. ‎ ‎ C. Old patients should get much more care from the hospital.‎ ‎ D. Being attractive means nothing to the people truly important to you. ‎ As I stood in the return line and watched people,I became extremely impatient.My daughter had got four Barbie dolls and two identical Cabbage Patch Kids on Christmas,so I was eager to return toys that she didn’t need.Suddenly a strong idea came to me.I eyed the lady in front of me with three small girls on her leg.The family looked poor.The children were without coats,and they had dirty faces and hair.“You are ready to get out of here,aren’t you? Give her the things you want to return,” the still voice spoke.“Give them to her? These are mine.I’m not giving her my stuff,” I argued.I swallowed the urge that threatened to escape my lips when the voice spoke again.“Give her the toys.” I was familiar with the voice .I ‎ know I couldn’t argue with that voice.‎ ‎ I sighed and tapped the lady on the shoulder.“Ma’am,” I cleared my throat.She looked at me with kind,tired eyes surrounded by wrinkles.“Yes?” she asked.“Would your little girls like to have these toys?” I pointed to my basket full of returns.“Would your children like to have them?” She was speechless,and I swore that tears were about to well up in her eyes.“You’d be doing me a favor.I can’t stand in this line in a moment longer.” “You have no idea,” she shook her head.“You have no idea what that means to me.”‎ ‎ I started loading her basket as the excited girls watched.“Merry Christmas,” I said,“God bless you.” She replied as I nodded and exited the line.I didn’t want to go the Walmart that day,but I went.I didn’t want to give the lady my kid’s toys,but I did.Sometimes doing what we don’t want to do is exactly what we’re supposed to do.‎ ‎32．The author decided to return some of the gifts because_______.‎ A. she wanted to get some money B. her daughter needed money then C. her daughter didn’t like them at all D. all of them weren’t in need ‎33．When the author saw the woman and her three girls,she_______.‎ A. gladly helped them B. didn’t want to help them C. pretended not to know them D. hesitated about whether to help them ‎34．They lady was speechless after hearing the author’s words because__________.‎ A. she was too surprised to say anything B. she was too moved to say anything C. she didn’t believe the author at first D. she was considering the author’s words ‎35．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?‎ A.
