二、阅读理解（16分）（2018·嵊州模拟）

I was walking along a busy road when I noticed a young man standing near the crossing selling toys.

Usually I would pay no attention and hurry past such sellers. But I noticed this young man was blind, so I stood for some time without crossing the street. I wanted to see how he sold his toys. Soon, a young mother with a small child came by and the little child was interested in one of the toys that could make a sound. The young mother asked for the price and it was only one dollar. The young mom pulled out a 10 dollar note from her purse and told the young man that she was giving him 10 dollars

and wanted the change back. I was wondering how he was going to give it back. He told the young mother to put the money in the bag around his neck and take out whatever change he should give her. She then put her hand into the bag and took out the change while I was watching her like a hawk.

I realized that this young man depended on trusting people not to cheat him. There was no way of him knowing if someone took out more than they should have done.

I was so touched by how this young blind man trusted people that I bought a toy from him that I did ot need. He said it cost a dollar and I told him that I had only 10 dollars. He told me to do the same thing. So I put my 10 dollars in his bag. I put my hand in but did not take any change. As I walked down the street I saw another kid walking with his father, so I gave him the little toy. I walked on hoping that two people would have a smile on their face that day.

I kept thinking that the world would be a better place if we could all learn to trust others more, like the young blind street seller.

Last week we had a discussion about the exam stress. Here is the result. Most

of us think that a little bit of stress can be a good thing for us. If we have proper stress, we can think more actively and work harder. Besides, it can remind us to review our lessons in time to remember them, so we can get good grades easily. However, if we have too heavy stress, we can’t sleep well at nig ht and we may feel too tired. What’s worse, we may fear the exams too much and fail in the end.

In my opinion, to deal with stress, we’d better plan and prepare well. We should also form some good habits, such as enough exercise and healthy diets. Then we’ll feel relaxed and do well in the exams.
