and pulled out a knife.
"He wanted my money, so I just gave him my wallet and told him, "Here you go "" Diaz says.
As the teen began to walk away, Diaz told him, "Hey, wait a minute. You forgot something. If you"re
going to be robbing people for the rest of the night, you might as well take my coat to keep you warm."
The robber looked at him puzzled, saying, "Why are you doing this?"
Diaz replied, "If you"re willing to risk your freedom for a few dollars, then you must really need the
money. I mean, all I wanted to do was get dinner and if you really want to join me….."
Diaz says he and the teen went into a diner and sat in a booth.
"The manager comes by, the dishwashers come by, the waiters come by to say hi," Diaz says.
The kid said, "You know everybody here. Do you own this place?"
"No, I just eat here a lot," Dias said. "But you"re even nice to the dishwasher," he said.
Diaz replied, "Well, haven"t you been taught you should be nice to everybody?"
"Yea, but I didn"t think people actually behaved that way," the teen said.
When the bill arrived, Diaz said, "You"re going to have to pay for this bill because you have my
money and I can"t pay for this. So if you give me my wallet back, I"ll gladly treat you."
The teen returned it immediately. "I gave him $20…I figure maybe it"ll help him." Diaz says he asked
for something in return- the teen"s knife-"and he gave it to me."
Afterwards, when Diaz told his mother what happened, she said, "You"re the type of kid that if
someone asked you for the time, you gave them your watch."
"I figure, you know, if you treat people right, you can only hope that they treat you right. It"s as simple
as it gets in this complicated world."

their land. The government had set up a reservation for them in Idaho. Chief Joseph did not want to leave
the land. It was holy ground. It contained the bones of his father and mother.
But, like his father in earlier times, Chief Joseph knew it would be hopeless to stay and defend the
land. There were too few Indians to win a war against the white men.
And so in June of eighteen seventy-seven, the Nez Perce left their home in the Wallowa Valley. They
left quickly. They were able to take only a small part of what they owned, and just a few cattle and
Appaloosa horses.
When the Indians reached the Snake River, the water was very deep and ran very fast with melted
snow from the mountains. Chief Joseph and his people made boats from sticks and dried animal skins to
cross the river. While the Indians were busy, a group of white men came and stole some of the cattle
waiting at the edge of the river.
The other chiefs demanded that Joseph call a meeting. Two of the chiefs, White Bird and
Toohoolhoolzote, spoke for War, but Joseph held different opinion.
Some of the young men in White Bird"s group were very angry. That night, they rode into the
countryside and killed eleven white persons.
During all his years as chief, Joseph had tried to keep the peace. Now he saw there was no hope.
Although he and his young men had taken no part in the killings, he knew that the white men would blame
all of the Indians. Chief Joseph said, "I would have given my own life if I could have undone the killing of
the white men."
Many Nez Perce fled. Chief Joseph remained, because his wife was about to have a baby. After she
gave birth, he and his family joined the others in White Bird Canyon to the south.
Joseph wanted to lead the people to safety in the flat lands of Montana. But the United States army
quickly sent horse soldiers to follow them.
They were extremely tired when they reached White Bird Canyon. An Indian-carrying a white
flag-walked forward to meet them. A soldier shot him.
With that shot, war between the Nez Perce and the United States began.
B. He didn"t want to be separated from his parents.
C. He had special feeling for the land where he was living.
D. He didn"t want to live with the white men.
B. Chief Joseph and his people were unwilling to cross the deep river.
C. When the Indians reached the Snake River, it was very hard for them to cross it.
D. While the Indians were waiting by the river, a group of white men stole some of the cattle.
B. white men often killed some Indians
C. chief Joseph was afraid of white men
D. conflicts often happened between the Indians and the white
B. Chief Joseph tried his best to keep peace
C. All the Nez Perce fled
D. The United States army wanted to revenge(报仇)
B. The American Civil War.
C. Chief Joseph and his children.
D. The Nez Perce Indians.
with the shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. The case has caused a national debate in the United
States about race, self-defense laws and gun control.
It was the first time the public had gotten to see and hear from George Zimmerman. The judge said he
had found probable cause to move ahead with the case and told Zimmerman he would be formally
charged on May 29th.
Zimmerman turned himself into authorities on Wednesday night, just before special prosecutor (检举
人)Angela Corey announced the charge against him.
Corey told reporters she would fight for Trayvon Martin.
"It"s the victims and justice that we work tirelessly for " Corey said.
Zimmerman says he shot Martin in self-defense after spotting the teenager in a gated community
where Martin"s father lives. He told police Martin attacked him during a conflict.The shooting caused a
national cry led by Martin"s parents who insisted their son was murdered. They also accused Zimmerman
of targeting their son because he was black.
"We just wanted an arrest and we got it," Trayvon Martin"s mother Fulton said.
Many in Sanford, Florida -the city where the shooting took place-welcomed the charge.
"All of us were wanting this to move on and get to this process where it is now into the justice
system," one man said.
"It was long overdue (迟到的) and I am glad they decided to do something," another said.
Police did not initially charge Zimmerman with a crime because of a Florida law that says a person
has a right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force. Prosecutor Corey say:
"" I"m prepared to argue the issue if Zimmerman uses the self-defense law in court"".
Mark O"Mara, Zimmerman"s lawyer, would not make his plan public, but he said his client (委托人)
was worried about the trial.
"If found guilty of the second-degree murder charge, Zimmerman could face up to life in prison.",
O"Mara said.
B. Because Trayvon Martin"s father was a famous lawyer.
C. Because the case was related with race, self-defense laws and gun control.
D. Because George Zimmerman would be sentenced to life in prison.
B. She wanted to defend justice for the victims.
C. She hated George Zimmerman very much.
D. She was against self-defense.
B. Mark O"Mara was Zimmerman"s lawyer.
C. Sybrina Fulton was Martin"s mother.
D. Angela Corey was the judge of the case.
B. Zimmerman would be put into prison.
C. Zimmerman shot Martin in self-defense in a gated community.
D. Zimmerman targeted Trayvon Martin because he was black.
B. Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin"s mother couldn"t agree on how the thing happened
C. Mark O"Mara was willing to make his plan public
D. police did not charge Zimmerman with a crime at last
阅读下面的短文并回答文题，然后将答案写到相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
with volunteers. Students like Campbell Snoddy collect food that ____________ by students, parents
and teachers from each classroom. Then, the children check to make sure the food isn"t too old. After
that, they sort it by category and put the cans and boxes into bags to be delivered to low-income senior
citizens in the community.
"I wanted to teach my daughter about philanthropy (慈善)," says Julie Rosenthal, who started the
non-profit program six years ago. "And I wanted to teach other kids in the community, too."
Children make their deliveries around the 15th of the month, when money from monthly Social
Security checks begins to run out and tough decisions between food and other needs have to be made.
"I am on a fixed income and the food has helped me out considerably," says Linda Testerman, a food
receiver. "
"It was really fun, it was great to make the senior citizens happy," says Campbell. "It was really cool."
Sofia Merkowitz, another Food on the 15th volunteer, agrees. "I really liked it because it made me feel
really good that people were so happy that they got food."
Rosenthal says that is why she has children do more than fill a bag with donated food.
"We want the children to have firsthand experience delivering the food to the people so that they can
get that feeling of really making a difference in somebody"s life, a positive difference."
The program started with one school delivering 30 bags of groceries. It has grown each year, and now
involves 10 schools and several churches. Food on the 15th has delivered more than 12,000 bags so far. Rosenthal"s goal is to expand Food on the 15th across the country and around the world.
