He had his thumb out, wishing for a hitchhiking （搭便車） . I drove right by him. There was a time in the country when you’d be called a jerk if you passed by somebody in need. Now you’re a fool for helping. “I don’t want to get involved.” has bee a national motto. Several days later I was still thinking about the hitchhiker. I didn’t even lift my foot off the accelerator（油門踏板） for him. One day, I suddenly recalled Blanche’s famous words: “I have always depended on the kindness of strangers.” Was that possible these days? One way to test this would be for a person to journey across the US without any money, just relying on the goodwill of others. Would he find food, shelter and support? The idea interested me. I decided to travel from the Pacific to the Atlantic without a penny. I would only accept offers of rides, food and a place to rest my head. For six weeks I hitched 82 rides and covered 4,223 miles across 14 states. I was treated kindly everywhere I went. I was amazed by people’s readiness to help a stranger, even when it seemed to run contrary to their own best interests. I found people were generally sympathetic. Hearing I had no money, people bought me food and gave me necessities. Those who had the least to give often gave the most. In Oregon a house painter named Mike noticed the cold weather and asked if I had a coat. When he learned I didn’t, he drove me to his house, and gave me a big armystyle jacket. A worker named Tim invited me to a simple dinner with his family in their old house. Then he offered me his tent. I refused, but he insisted, and finally I agreed to take it. I’m grateful to all the people I met for their rides, food, shelter and gifts. My faith in ordinary people was renewed. It turns out that you can still depend on the kindness of strangers. 56.

Why did the author decide to go on a hitchhiking journey without any money? A. To discover the secret of hitchhiking. 6 B. To call for trust and love among people. C.

Eating out is more popular in Britain today than ever before. However, eating out can be expensive. Restaurants are normally more expensive than pubs, though many pubs serve very good, simple food. As British people don’t dine out every night of the week, eating in a restaurant is often seen as a special occasion. When going for the first date, or if celebrating an anniversary or a birthday, many people like to go to a restaurant. People often eat in a restaurant before going to the cinema or the theatre. As in all cultures, there are many rules of etiquette （禮節(jié)） surrounding food and eating, and nowhere is this more pronounced than when eating in a smart restaurant. People are almost always expected to eat with a knife and fork and these should be held in the correct hand and used in the correct way. It is also impolite to have your elbows on the dining table when you are eating. There’re many such “unspoken” rules they are normally only important when eating in a very
