 It was a cool spring morning back in 2009 and I had just started a morning shift as a school crossing guard. Looking out for the children, I suddenly noticed something at sideways. Behind me I first thought it was a small, overweight dog heading towards me. I didn't think much about it, and looked carefully at any approaching children, as well as enjoying the morning sun.

What is wrong with that dog? I thought later on, as I looked back to check on the small dog—it was moving much too fast for itself.

A few minutes later, I felt as if I was being watched, I looked behind me, but the dog had disappeared. Then, as I slowly turned my attention back to the road, I was greatly surprised to see a large koala at my feet and staring right up at me. A number of different solutions crossed my mind. But staying calm was the best. "Are you waiting to cross the road?" I asked the sweet koala. Miss Koala looked away, and scratched (抓挠) behind her ear.

Then it got up on all four feet and impatiently started to cross the road. I quickly checked for any cars, then walked to the road with my stop sign held high, whistle (吹哨) to my lips, and held my breath.

The koala made it to the other side of the street, then continued following the path through the trees and disappeared into bushes.

So why did the koala cross at the school crossing? To safely get to the trees on the other side!

When I was in the eighth grade, my class was assigned( 指派 ) to be friends with the second-grade kids. I got this little girl named Shelley. The first time I saw her, she was silent and cold.  She was small for her age, and she didn’t play with the other kids in her class.

I tried all kinds of things to get her to talk to me. I bought her toys, crayons and candies. But try as I might, nothing worked. One time, I gave her a coloring book and said, “Shelley, now you can color at any time.”

Shelley looked at the coloring book and then looked up at me, and finally looked away. By that, I didn’t know how I was going to get through to the little girl, but I knew I wouldn’t give up on her.

One Friday, I decided to tell her a story about my childhood. I told her that I felt lonely when I was with my classmates, and how I thought only my teachers liked me. I also told her that every day was a battle( 战役 ) for me and I fought back tears so people wouldn’t know how much I was hurting.

She sat there just listening, trying to decide whether I was lying or not. Finally, when my story ended, there were tears in her eyes. And then she did the unthinkable. She said, “Thank you.” From then on, Shelley was a different little girl. She started smiling and talking with other kids.

Looking back at this, I’m in awe( 惊叹 ), because all I did was to help her realize that she wasn’t alone. I didn’t ask her to tell her story, because her story is my story.

It seems that food deliverymen ( 送货员 ) are always rushing in haste . We can always see them running every minute, and they seem to have lots of things to do the next minute. They wear blue, red or yellow helmets ( 头盔 ) and many of them don’t follow traffic rules. They drive on the wrong side of the road and run red lights. They use mobile phones when they are driving.

However, not everything goes well with food deliverymen. In the first half of 2017, food deliverymen had 76 traffic accidents in Shanghai. That means every two and a half days, a food deliveryman will die or get hurt on the road.

What makes deliverymen take such risks? The strict rules of the food delivery companies and the worried customers may be the answer. Many companies will fine ( 罚款 ) a deliveryman up to 2,000 yuan if he can’t deliver the food on time, reported China Daily. Fines also go to those who get bad reviews from customers.

To solve the problem, food delivery service companies need to do some changes. Some cities are also taking action. Shanghai has asked companies to train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety. Now in Shenzhen, if a deliveryman breaks traffic rules more than twice, then he can’t do the job for a whole year.

1 ． The underlined phrase “in haste” in Paragraph 1 probably means ______ in Chinese.

A ．匆忙地 B ．慢慢地 C ．意外地 D ．犹豫地

2 ． The first paragraph mainly tells us that many food deliverymen ______.

A ． work very hard B ． break traffic rules

C ． are good at driving D ． use mobile phones too much

3 ． How many reasons are mentioned for deliverymen’s taking risks of breaking traffic rules?

A ． Two. B ． Three. C ． Four. D ． Five.

4 ． If a food deliveryman ______, the companies will fine him.

A ． drives too slowly B ． delivers food on time

C ． obeys traffic rules D ． gets bad reviews from his customers

5 ． What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A ． Traffic rules are too strict to deliverymen.

B ． Food deliverymen cannot drive on important roads in the future.

C ． Some cities are working to solve the problem and make things better.

D ． All the companies in China train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety.

Building her own app

While other teenagers hang out with friends or play sports after school, Brooke Yoakam goes to business meetings.

Yoakam first began developing a mobile app called Gift Pocket at the age of 12. Now 17, this girl from Ohio, US has finally launched the app.

It allows users to upload gift cards from various businesses and store them all in one place. User can also exchange gift cards. The app is free to download and use.

Yoakam says about 1,000 users have downloaded the app, with 87 percent of them signing up （注册） and 45 percent adding at least one gift card to the service.

Yoakam came up with the idea for the app after attending a leadership academy （领导学院） in sixth grade. She was asked to solve a problem. She realized that she always forgot her gift cards when she went shopping with friends. But since most people have mobile phones, it would be easy to store and use the gift cards from there.

After leaving the academy, Yoakam decided to develop an app that would solve this problem. She won a local business competition and received $2,000 （ 13, 800 yuan ） from a company to invest （投资） in her idea. She traveled around after school two or three times a week to work on the app. She even gave up some of her hobbies and activities.

The app has helped her realize her interests. So she hopes to major （主修） in business and technology in college.
