Iwasinashoppingmall，soIdecided-优题课

I was in a shopping mall，so I decided to go and get a cup of coffee．As I was making my way to the coffee shop，I noticed an old gentleman poorly dressed sitting near the shop．I knew from the first sight that he needed help．He had a little lunch in front of him and was enjoying it．It was clear that he had a problem with his right eye．I then joined the line and waited to be served．

Then it happened．One of the most beautiful gestures（姿态） I had ever seen in my life．There was a young man in front of me in the line who was also waiting to be served．The next thing I knew was that the young man handed the waitress（女服务员） 20dollars and requested a glass of juice as a favor（善行）．The waitress looked at the young man a little perplexed，not fully understanding the request．That was when the young man asked her to give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside，as well as the change（零钱） from the 20dollars．The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be completely safe．

Then there was a wonderful exchange between the waitress and the old man．I only wished I

could take a photo of the smiles on both of their faces．

As I was considering this event later，I wondered why the young man didn't perform this act of kindness himself．Maybe he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire（激励） others to do something for this old man as well．

If you travel in New Zealand, you may find some very interesting things. It is called “New Zealand Four Strange Things”.

	Have you ever seen that cows are lined up? New Zealand is so large. It is impossible for people to milk cows by hand. So the farmers trained the leading cow to take the cows to the milking station twice a day. The leading cow has a sensor（传感器）on its head. When it is time for milking, the sensor warns the leading cow to take the lead.
	Horses are mainly raised for viewing（观赏）and racing, so the coat color is very important. Wearing sunscreen（防晒）clothes on horses can avoid the harm from the sun. The clothes on horses are filled with weights that are the same weight of the rider. When the weights are replaced by the rider during the race, “________” just like the sportsman running with sandbags.
	Sheep in New Zealand used to have tails. Because they poop（排便）when they’re born, grass flies are interested in them. Grass flies lay their eggs in the tails of the baby sheep, causing illness and death. Then people tie their tails. As time passes, the sheep become tailless. This improves the survival rate（成活率）.
	New Zealand’s alpacas（羊驼）were introduced from South America. They are quite different from two-humped camels（双峰驼）. An alpaca weighs about 55 kg to 65 kg. Its shape is like a sheep. Only one grown-up male（雄性）alpaca can be found in each group. It is the leading one. Alpacas are gentle, clever and human.

1. Why do the cows in New Zealand stand in line?

A．	Because the cows want to eat grass.	B．	Because the cows are ready for milking.
C．	Because the cows used to do so.	D．	Because the leading cow asks them to do so.

2. Which of the following can be put in “________”?

A．	the horses will be used to running with weights	B．	the horses can run faster than before
C．	the horses won’t be able to run	D．	the horses will not be used to running

3. How do people make sheep’s tails become tailless?

By cutting them.

By tying them.

By pulling them.

By pushing them.

4. How much does an alpaca weigh?
