浙江省湖州市吴兴区2018-2019学年八年级下学期英语期末考试试卷
Sixteen years ago, I learned an important life lesson in a New York City taxi. I was on my 1 to the station, and we were driving in the right lane（车道）when a black car 2 jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.
My driver hit the brakes（刹车）hard, skidded（滑行）, and at the last moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the front car.
The driver of the other car, the man who had just nearly caused a huge accident, started 3 at us. But then here's what really 4 me. My taxi driver just simled and waved at him. He was really 5!
"Why did you just do that?" I asked him, "This guy almost destroyed your car and could have sent 6 to the hospital!"
This was when my taxi driver told me what I now call the "Law of Garbage Trucks（垃圾车法则）".
"Many people 7 garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of 8, and full of disappintment," he said, "As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump（倾倒）it, and if you let them do, they'll dump it on you. 9 when someone wants to dump on you, just simle, wave, wish them well, and move on. You'll be 10 because of what you do."
I started thinkng, how 11 do I let garbage trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and dump it on other people at work, at home, or on the street?
I began to see garbage trucks. I see the "garbage" that people are carrying. I see them coming to dump it. And like my taxi driver, I don't feel hurt. I just 12, wave, and move on. It was on that day that I said, "I'm not going to dump anymore."
