    A young man was traveling down a country road, going a bit too fast in his new car. There were many kids playing between the cars parked on the side of the street.

    As his car passed, one child suddenly appeared and threw a brick at the car. The man stopped the car and jumped out. He caught the kid and shouted at him, “What are you doing?” He continued shouting, “That's a new car. It will be expensive to fix the damage you did with that brick. Why did you do it?” “I'm sorry. I didn't know what else to do. It's my brother,” he said, “He rolled(滚落)off the side of the road and fell out of his wheelchair. I can't lift him up. He is hurt and he is too heavy for me.”

    There was a time when no one knew the name Harry Potter. Now the adventures of this extraordinary student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry are read in over 45 languages, including Russian, Thai, and even ancient Greek. No one can explain the Harry Potter phenomenon (现象) – not even J.K. Rowling, his creator.

    J.K. Rowling was born in England in 1965. From a young age, she knew she wanted to be a writer. When she was 6, she wrote her first story—about a rabbit that gets sick. At school, she used to make up stories to tell her friends.

    After graduation from college, she worked as a secretary. But she didn't give up her dream.She spent her lunch hour writing stories, mainly for adults. Then in 1990, on a train trip to London,she got the idea from the boy wizard. She says he just appeared in her head. She soon created many other characters to help Harry fight the forces of darkness.

    She kept working on the story while she was teaching English in Portugal, where she married, had her first child, and divorced (与……离婚) a year later. When she returned to England, she brought back a box of Harry Potter stories.

    After returning home, she was broke and living in a small house. She continued writing, and in 1995, finished the first book in the series, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. It was published (出版) in 1997 and became an unexpected bestseller.

    Rowling's life has changed a lot. She has become internationally famous and now earns around $40 million a year. She remarried, had a second child and lives in Scotland now.

My daughter and I were driving from Los Angeles to Dallas.We were running low on gas(汽油)somewhere in New Mexico and hoped to meet a gas station soon.

But that didn't happen and we realized we were not going to make it to the next town.So my daughter made up a sign that said, "Low on gas.Can you help me?" and held it outside her window,hoping a driver in the next lane(车道)would notice it and stop.

There weren't too many cars passing by us at that time.It was a desolate stretch of the road and about3:30 p.m.on a weekday.A truck was driving along in the neighboring lane ahead of us.We caught up with it in the hope that the driver would notice the sign.An elderly gentleman was driving it and after an expression of confusion(困惑) on his face,he seemed to have noticed the sign and slowed down to pull over.We pulled over right behind him.

He was friendly and was willing to help us.At first he thought we didn't have enough money to buy gas,so he offered to buy us gas at the next town Roswell that was about 10 miles' away!

When we explained our trouble,he said he was a factory worker and was returning home from work.His factory was about 10 minutes away and they had gas there,so if we could give him 20 minutes,get a can of gas and fill up our car for us.We could not believe our good luck!

We were filled with thanks for the kindness of strangers such as this person when we waited for him to return.Sure enough,he was back with the can.He refused to take payment for the gas.Tears came down,as did our warm thanks.

 阅读下面短文,从所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

If you visit Wuppertal, Germany, make sure you take the Schwebebahn. It's a railway that runs for 13 kilometres and carries over 80,000 passengers(乘客) every day.

The Schwebebahn travels in a very different way. Its 24-metre-long train doesn't run on the track(轨道), but under it. The track is 12 metres above the river, so as the train goes over the city, passengers can enjoy the exciting sights freely.

The Schwebebahn didn't come easy. In the 1880s, the traffic in Wuppertal was so busy that the government had to develop a new way of travelling. At that time, a man named Eugen Langen was trying a railway under the track to carry products for his company. It was successful so later Eugen put this idea into the Schwebebahn. In that way, the space above the River Wupper got fully used. It turned out to be a very good choice.

The Schwebebahn gives special travel experiences to passengers. Its stations are as beautiful as art museums, so passengers won't be bored while waiting in the stations. A classical train also offers all kinds of services, such as food and drinks. What's more, people can book this train to have parties or even get married in the air! They will never forget this one- hour journey in the air.

Now the Schwebebahn is more than a railway for Wuppertal. It is a symbol of the city.
