It’s a small gas station that has snacks,drinks,cigarettes,and candies.The young man behind the counter(柜台) knows his    16   by name and what they normally want to buy.He treats children and adults with equal   17   .He reads science fiction behind the counter when business is   18 .
One day , three people rushed in and grabbed food off the shelves as fast as they could ,   19  not intending to pay for it . He hit the “panic button”, then went over the counter and    20  the front door . It was obvious that they were homeless, and equally obvious that they were’t going    21  with their ill-gotten gains (不义之财).They   22  the food and simply crowded together in panic-knowing the police were   23  the way.
Imagine what they must have felt like when they were told they didn’t have to steal if they were that   24 . “We have food in the back expired(到期) but still   25  to eat . If you need food , you   26  have some .”
They were told to   27  what they had dropped and put it back , and then asked to straighten out the mess. They were doing just that   28  the police arrived. The officers were told the situation was under control and the police were no longer   29  .
This wasn’t what they had   30  . They were being treated as human beings who could right the wrong they’d done. Shocked , they quickly followed orders to take turns and use the restroom to clean up.
Soon three   31  people walked out with all the   32  their arms could hold. They were   33  that , if they needed to come back again , they were to ask and not just grab. 
And then the young man went back to read until the next customer came in . He would be the 34  person in the world to claim he was a hero . But he gave three people something they were in desperate need of –a   35  amount of self-respect and a little bit of hope.

“All of our   41  are taken,” the clerk said. “But I can’t send a   42  couple like you 43  into the rain at 1 o’clock in the morning. Would you please be   44  to sleep in my room? It’s not exactly a suite(套房), but it will be good enough to make you  45  for the night.”
The couple said no politely.
“Don’t   46  me. It is just fine with me,” the clerk told them.
As he paid his bill the next morning, the elderly man said to the clerk, “You are the kind of manager who should be the boss of the best hotel. Maybe someday I’ll build   47  for you.” The three of them had a good   48 .

Once a man named Grand found a box of old papers in a room at the top of his house. He burned most of them, because he didn’t like old things very much, But one of these papers was an old letter. At the bottom(底部) of the letter was the name of a well-known writer. “When this letter was written,” said Grant, “no one knew about the writer. But now everyone knows him. Some people like to buy letters like this. I may be able to get much money for the letter if I sell it to the right man.”
But there were a lot of dirty marks all over the letter.
“It doesn’t look nice,” he thought. “No one wants to buy a letter if it’s dirty. I’ll have to clean it.”
So he took a piece of cloth and some water and cleaned the letter. He worked hard and gave a lot of care. At last the letter looked better. And he was very pleased with his work.
“Now it looks nice,” he said to himself. “I’ll be able to sell it for a lot of money.”
He took the letter to a shop in London where old papers of this kind were bought and sold.
“I want to sell this letter,” Grant said to the man in the shop. “It was written by a well-known writer. You know about these things. How much will you give me for it?”
The man looked at him for a long time.
“I will give you two pounds for it,” he said at last.
“Only two pounds!” said Grant. “But people pay ten pounds for a letter like this. And just look! I’ve even cleaned it to make it look nice.”
“I can see that,” said the man. “That’s the trouble. People who buy old papers like them to be dirty.”

Benjamin Franklin only studied in school for two years. But he liked to read and write very much. Once he discussed a question with his friend in letters. His father found the letters and read them. He felt Ben did not express himself well. Nor did Ben make his meaning clear. He agreed that his father was right, From then on, he paid more attention to the style of his writing so that he could write better.
About that time he bought a copy of the British periodical(周刊) called The Spectator (《观察家》). He read it over and over. He thought the writing excellent, and wished, if possible, to write in the same style.
With this in mind, he studied some of the stories and made a note of the thought in each sentence. Then, a few days later, without looking at the magazine, he tried to write the stories. He tried to express each thought as fully as it had been expressed before. Then he compared his writing with the magazine. He found some of his faults in the compositions.
In this way he discovered he needed to know many more words. He felt that writing poetry would help him since that needed to use many different words which had the same meaning. So he turned some of the stories into poems; and after a time, he wrote them as stories again. He insisted on doing this for a long time.
He learned much from his efforts and went on to practise his writing. Then he became the first famous writer in American history.

It’s great fun to explore new places—it feels like an adventure, even when you know you’re not the first to have been there. But make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles.
·Do the map reading if you’re being driven somewhere. It’ll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction you’re traveling in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or you’ll have to move to the back seat.
·Get a group of friends together and go exploring. You’ll need a good map, a compass(指南针), a raincoat, a cellphone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies. Tell someone where you’re going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back. The test is not in getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up.
See if your school or a club organizes orienteering(越野识途比赛) activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B (and B to C, etc) in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity. Either way, it’s not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit.
小题1: Sitting beside the driver, you should _______.
A.direct the driver when necessary
B.look ahead to see where there’s a turn
C.move to the back seat if feeling uncomfortable
D.Keep looking at the map to find a place to go to
小题2: Why do you need to tell someone your exploration plan before setting out?
A.To get information when in danger.
B.To be saved in case of an accident.
C.To share the fun with him/her in exploration.
D.To tell him/her what’s going on with the group members.
小题3: Orienteering activities can _______.
A.make people work fastB.help people stay healthy
C.help people organize other activitiesD.make people get prepared for sports.
小题4: The text mainly talks about _____.
A.the fun of explorationB.what to bring for exploration
C.the way to use a map in explorationD.how to prevent getting lost in exploration.
