There is a cabin(舱室) for the driver in the front and two or three passengers(乘客) can sit at the back. When it starts(启动), it will make the sound tuk, tuk. Thats why it is called tuk-tuk. In Thailand, tuk-tuks are everywhere in big cities like Bangkok. Why? Because they are very small, and they can go very quickly. We can also find tuk-tuks in China, Italy and some other places. One thing is very interesting, the German(德国)car maker，BMW, makes a funny-looking tuk- tuk. How can you have a nice trip by tuk-tuk? Here are two tips. First, tell the driver where you are going, and talk about the price before you leave. If you dont do that, you may pay(支付) too much money for your trip, because tuk-tuks dont have the meters(计程表).

I hopped in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane when, all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other cars back end by just inches!The driver of the other car, who almost caused a big accident, started yelling bad words at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean he was friendly. So, I said, Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital! And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call The Law of the Garbage Truck.Many people are like garbage (rubbish) trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it. And if you let them, theyll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you, dont take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Youll be happy with what you did.I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets? It was that dayI said, Im not going to do anymore.Successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their day. What about you? If you let more garbage trucks pass you by, youll be happier. Lifes too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So, Love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who dont.（1）What happened one day when the author was taking a taxi? A .

School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just dont like one of your classmates?If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We cannot change the way that other people do, so it is important to lean to live happily with them.Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why he does things differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind.You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how you want to be treated.” If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it. 现在，没有人要求你改变自己。 Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyones life easier. 学会接受能力兴趣与自己不同的人。The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference._6. （5分）任务型阅读，左栏是对资源的使用以及环保问题的描述，请在右栏选出相应的对策。 _Every day, in homes all over the world, people leave lights on when no one is in the room._Air conditioners are usually set at too low temperatures in summer._A lot of water is wasted by using too much._Well have less and less gas to use because more people buy cars._People, especially children, watch TV for too many hours.A.
