While most people ‎ were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of work, he returned to find his bike gone.‎ The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries（食品杂货），saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.‎ ‎ I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.‎ People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it made our confidence in humanity（人性）stronger as a whole. And it has also influenced us to be more mindful of ways we can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be continuing for ever.‎ ‎34. Why was the bike so important to the couple?‎ ‎ A. They used it for work and daily life. B. It was borrowed from their friend.‎ ‎ C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed. D. The man's job was bike racing.‎ ‎35.

How did people get to know the couple's problem?‎ ‎ A. From radio broadcasts. B. From a newspaper.‎ ‎ C. From TV news. D. From a stranger.‎ ‎37. What do the couple learn from their experience?‎ ‎ A. Strangers are usually of little help. B. One should take care of their bike.‎ ‎ C. News reports make people famous. D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.‎ D How to Be a Winner Sir Steven Redgrave Winner of 5 0lympic Gold Medals ‎ "In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes(糖尿病)． Believing my career(职业生涯) was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it - the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn't difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to ‎ myself that I wasn't finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way."‎ Karen Pickering ‎ Swimming World Champion ‎ "I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that kind of workload by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to success - you can't follow a career in any field without being well-organized. List what you believe you can achieve. Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they are, and you'll be a step closer to achieving them."‎ ‎ Kirsten Best ‎ Poet & Writer ‎ "When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can't achieve something. Then, there are other things that take your attention away, such as family or hobbies. The key is to pay more attention. When I feel nervous, it helps a lot to repeat words such as 'calm', 'peace' or 'focus', either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological(心理的) tool."‎ ‎38. What does Sir Steven Redgrave mainly talk about?‎ ‎ A. Difficulties influenced his career.‎ ‎ B. Specialists offered him medical advice.‎ ‎ C. Training helped him defeat his disease.‎ ‎ D. He fought successfully against illness to win. .‎ ‎39.
