　　The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.

　　There are plenty of "energy drinks" （能量飲料）on the market. Most of them have

　　beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!

　　But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep

　　you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.

　　Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

　　When my grandmother was 89 years old, she had some problems with her heart. All of us are worried about her health.

　　So one day my family went with her to the doctor, who told her that she needed an operation ( 手 術(shù) ). But because of her age, the operation could be dangerous He went on to say that my grandmother would have a 40 percent chance of having a heart attack ( 發(fā) 作 ) and a 30 percent

　　chance of dying during the operation.

　　My grandmother, who was quite shocked, said to the doctor, “Doctor, as long as you’re talking about statistics (數(shù)據(jù)), I have a statistic for you: there is a 100 percent chance of you not operating on me!” With these words, my grandmother got up and left the doctor’s office.

　　My grandmother might have been stubborn (執(zhí)拗的), but she was not a fool. So the next day she went to another doctor, and he too told her she needed an operation.

　　My grandmother asked the doctor, “If I were your mother, what would you suggest?”

　　The doctor walked up to her, smiled, put his arm around her, and said, “Mom, let’s do this

　　operation!”

　　She had the operation and came out fine.

　　My grandmother passed away a few weeks before her 97th birthday. However, because of her

　　positive attitude, she gave us, her family and friends, almost eight more years of life to enjoy with

　　her.

　　My grandmother was the pride of the whole family and we learnt a lot from her.

　　We were driving in the right lane（車道） 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（剎車）, skidded, and missed the other car’s back end by just inches! The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head angrily and started yelling（叫喊） 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 was what my taxi driver told me which, I call, ‘The Law of the Garbage Truck.’ （垃圾車）

　　Many people are like garbage 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（傾卸） it. And if you let them, they’ll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you, don’t take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. You’ll be happy you did.

　　So this was it: “The Law of the Garbage Truck.” 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, on the streets?

　　It was that day I said, “I’m not going to do it anymore.”

　　I began to see garbage trucks. I see the load they’re carrying. I see them coming to drop it off. And like my Taxi Driver, I don’t make it a personal thing; I just smile, wave, and move on.

　　Good leaders know they have to be ready for their next meeting. Good parents know that they have to welcome their children home from school with hugs and kisses. What about you? The mark of a successful person is how quickly they can get back their focus on what’s important.

　　13.Who acted like a garbage truck in the first two paragraphs?

　　A. The writer.

　　B. The taxi driver.

　　C. The black car driver.

　　.

　　A. he couldn’t control his car

　　B. he met with a garbage truck

　　C. the taxi driver made a mistake

　　D. he was in a bad mood

　　15. When saying “I’m not going to do it anymore” in paragraph 4, the writer meant he’d no longer

　　.

　　A. see garbage trucks

　　B. dump garbage on others

　　C. have garbage dumped on him

　　D. be a garbage truck himself

　　Nine years ago around Christmas, I was on a Captiva Island beach at sunrise. I crouched（蹲伏） low there and was lost in the false hope（假想） of finding a treasure（寶貝） larger than the small　21　on the shore.

　　A man ran slowly along the waves 　22　my direction. When he came near me, he slowed to a walk. I didn’t 　23　him until he was almost standing over me. Too young to be 　24　of strangers, I got on my feet and looked at him. It was then that I saw what was in his　25　, a beautiful bright cream-colored shell（貝殼）, the kind of thing that I was looking for. He smiled as I stared in 　26　, and then, to my shock, he handed it to me. I held it 　27　before me like a diamond（鉆石）, not 　28　my eyes.

　　“I think you will like it,” he said, and then continued his 　29　down the beach. I do not 　30　his voice, his clothes or even his face, 　31　I do still have the shell, and the greatest lesson I’ve ever 　32　. Now the shell sits on my bedside table, not as　33　as it was, but it is 34.________ there, a reminder that there is quiet in the world.

　　That man saved my belief in the 35.________ of people, and he saved my belief that one can find what means something in life. I see my shell every day, and I know that I can 　36　bad days because there are good things in my life. In the end, all that we have is 　37　we have done for others. The shell is to me, as 38.________ as another man who returned to the plane to 　39　me my lost jacket.

　　I know that 　40　a difference in someone’s life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters, and that it is worth all the treasure in the world.
