3 . He’s an old cobbler(修鞋匠) with a shop in the Marais, a historic area in Paris．When I took him my shoes, he at first told me: “I haven’t time．Take them to the other fellow on the main street; he’ll fix them for you right away.”
But I’d had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman. “No,” I replied, “The other fellow can’t do it well.”
“The other fellow” was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait”(立等可取)-- without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap (鞋带) ,you might as well just throw away the pair.
My man saw I wouldn’t give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron (围裙), looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, “Come back in a week.”
I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boot off a shelf.“See what
I can do” he said with pride. “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work.”
When I got back out into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something____________ an old craftsman with his way of speaking, his pride in his craft.
These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things any old way as long as it “pays”, when, in short, people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption (消费) rather than a way to realize their own abilities. In such a period, it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done.
1. Which of the following is true about the old cobbler?
2. The sentence “He was something out of an ancient legend.” (paragraph6) implies that .
3. According to the author, many people work just to .
4. This story wants to tell us that .

5 . I remember growing up, my mom always said, “Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others.” It is so true. Friends and mates allow us to enjoy our success and our joys, comfort us in our challenging moments, and provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves. I’ve always looked at friends as the family we choose. They enrich our lives. As Robert Louis Steven once said, “A friend is a present which you give yourself.”
To be a good friend or partner, it’s important be a good listener. Hear what your friend or mate has to say first rather than jumping to conclusions or getting defensive. Sometimes it is useful to be their mirror, for when they hear their words repeated back to them; it can help them to realize that what they said was not exactly what they meant to say.
Patience, compassion and empathy are also important traits in being a good friend or partner. You know the old golden rule, “Care for others the way you would like them to care for you.”The support of a friend during a tough time could make the difference between success and failure. Encouragement and confidence are priceless gifts that can help change a person’s life.
Take care, though, with whom you choose to have close relationship, for they can have a tremendous impact on your self-esteem and life path. As someone once told me, “the attitude of your friends is like the buttons on an elevator. They will either take you up or down.”
1. In order to make good friends, you should do the following except ______.| A．Be a good listener | B．Be patient, compassionate |
| C．Be careful | D．Be generous to your friends |
| A．Buy your friend a mirror. | B．Point out their mistakes if there is any. |
| C．Give them encouragement and confidence. | D．Pay attention what they do. |
| A．It is different whether you have friends or not. |
| B．The support of friends counts when you have difficulties. |
| C．A friend in need is a friend indeed. |
| D．You are certain to succeed if you get the support of friends. |
| A．It is good to share your fun with other. |
| B．The friend is a mirror for us to learn more about others. |
| C．You’d better be a good listener if you want to be a good friend. |
| D．Be careful to choose your friend. |
