2 . “I found it! I found it!” A boy in the third grade was running to Li Hong, a librarian (图书管理员), and said happily, “This is the book Journey to the West, about Sun Wukong.”
“Dear, read carefully,” Li Hong said with a big smile as she saw the boy running back to the chair, raising the book high in the air.
About three years ago, Li Hong happened to find a room. It was dirty and in a mess. Many books, tables, chairs and other things were lying all over the room. There was a signboard hanging on the wall outside the door. It told people this room used to be a library. She said, “Many kind-hearted people helped to set up the library. But we forget about it.”
In order to help children read more, Li and her workmates opened the library again. She said, “When the library opened, the small room was crowded with students. We had to organize students from different grades to borrow books at different time.”
Many people give away their books to the library. Li Hong’s workmates help make borrowing cards and repair old books. Li Hong helps children borrow and return books. She also helps them choose books. The children who come to the library for the first time don’t know which book to choose. Li Hong can always give them some suitable advice and let them read the books they are interested in. Sometimes, Li Hong will hold some interesting activities to help students become more interested in reading.
A student put up a card in the shape of heart on the window of the library. It said, “Although the room is small, we got a lot of knowledge (知识) and joy from it.”

6 . Davis has had the habit of starting each day from a bench with a fantastic view of the Oakland. California waterfront (海滨). “Siting on the bench and watching a sunrise at the waterfront can bring peace and joy to my hear before staring my day,” said Davis.
One day a woman stopped there and said to him,“ You know, every morning when I see you sitting here, I know that everything is going to be OK.” What she said suddenly made Davis realize that he should pay more attention to the people walking past. Since then, he began to smile at people and talk with them. Soon some people began joining him on the bench, sometimes talking about their personal problems and sometimes asking him for advice about jobs and relationships. His openness to listen has won him the name “the Sunshine Listener”. “I’m happy to listen,” Davis said. “I want them to walk away knowing they don’t have to feel lonely.”
▲ They simply want to sit next to someone and share the silence. “A woman stopped once and said. ‘I just want to sit here with you.’” Davis said. “We looked at the water for some time, and then she thanked me and walked away. She just wanted a moment of peace and to know she wasn’t alone. And in that moment, she truly wasn’t.”

10 . This is such a heart-warming piece of news in the cold winter. Some days ago, the temperature was only -6℃ in Kaifeng, Henan. Someone ordered 50 cups of warm porridge (粥) through Meituan App and noted “Please give the porridge to those sanitation (环卫) workers who are clearing snow on the road near by and those delivery (递送) men who are delivering food.” When the porridge shop owner received the order, he was moved by the note and provided 60 cups.
The story didn’t end here. As soon as the food delivery man got the big order, he shared it with his workmates so that they could also get paid. Finally, Meituan returned the money to the porridge buyer, Mr. Zhang and gave him a reward of ¥500. Although he had to raise his newly-born baby and pay for his house every month, Mr. Zhang said he would surely continue delivering love.
The kind help also encouraged many other citizens in Kaifeng. This summer, volunteers are sending cool drinks every day.
Similar stories have happened in many other places in China. Outdoor workers in different cities are able to enjoy free and caring help. Lots of “love posts” are providing “coolness” in hot summer and “warmth” in cold winter. Just as a citizen of Kaifeng said, “I feel deeply moved and warm in heart.”
In fact, we get love and give love every day. Love delivery makes our life better and more beautiful.
根据上面短文的内容回答问题 (每个小题答案不超过6个单词)。1. How many cups of porridge did the shop owner provide?
2. What did the delivery man do when he got the big order?
3. What can you learn after reading this passage?
