河北省武邑中学2019届高三上学期英语期末考试试卷（含小段音频）
I was traveling in a small place in New York. That place had no taxi for a short (distant). One had to take a rickshaw(人力车).
I called out for an old man in the waiting line. Before I got on the rickshaw, I (automatic) asked how much he would charge to take me across to the Mall. I (tell) “10 dollars”. Then I started bargaining. He just gave a hard smile and said, “Whatever you feel like, please give me. It is not necessary(bargain) on this small amount.”
I was a bit ashamed at myself and kept quiet while he continued, “(like) those taxis, my vehicle does not run on petrol or diesel(柴油) or even gas; runs on my sweat. So please give it to me a smile, for the money has to feed so many (hunger) mouths at home.”
When we reached the Mall, I gave him the money and the smile requested and added a gentle pat on his back. He smiled back as if to give me a receipt and I would preserve his smile for long time.
