  Long long ago a man went to India and he had never been there before.When he got there, he saw a lot of fruit, but much of it was expensive because they couldn't grow much because there was little water.Finally he saw a big basket of some very red and long fruit.And it was the cheapest in the shop.

  So he went up and asked, “How much each kilo? ”and the shop keeper said, “Two rupees(盧比).”Two rupees in India was nothing.So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it.But after he ate some of it:oh, my god! His eyes watered, his mouth watered and burnt, and his face became red.He jumped up and down, saying, “Ah! Ah! Ah! ”

  But he still continued to eat the fruit! Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, “You're crazy, man.Those are chilies(辣椒)! You can't eat so many! People use them as a condiment, but only a little bit to put into food for taste.You can't just eat them like that.”But the silly man said, “No, I can't stop! I paid money for them, and now I'll eat them up.It's my money! ”

  And you think that man was silly, right? We sometimes do a lot of things like that.We spend money, time or effort doing something.And even though it's been a long time, hard experience tells us it won't work, and we know there's no more hope, we still continue just because we've put money, time, effort and love in to it.Just like the man who ate the chilies and felt so bad but couldn't stop because he didn't want to waste the money he'd paid.

  So even if you've lost something, let it go and move on.That's better than continuing to lose.

閱讀下面的文章,完成18~22題。
倔強的仙人掌
女人看見路邊蹲著一個挑擔老頭兒,他身下的筐里滿滿一筐仙人掌,嫁接出各種形狀,高高的底座像一座獨立秀挺的山峰,山峰項部是形狀不同的紅、黃、綠各色仙人球。女人拿起仙人掌左右挑選了很久,價格不貴,與花鳥市場上的相比便宜許多,挑定了自己喜歡的兩個,準備雙數(shù)一起買。
老頭兒滿臉胡茬兒,一個勁說這植物的種種優(yōu)點,如何好看好養(yǎng)還凈化空氣,未了搓著厚皮疙瘩的手說:“兩個就算你小批發(fā)!庇直阋肆艘粔K錢。
“你這是真嫁接上去的,還是用牙簽插上去的?”這樣的價錢,女人總覺不安,終于指著山峰項部的紅黃綠顏色的仙人球提出疑問。臉上是濃重的懷疑,蠻好的花買回家后發(fā)現(xiàn)是新種沒有根的,這種事情不是發(fā)生了一次。
老頭兒卻生氣了,臉騰地紅上來,結(jié)結(jié)巴巴地說:“怎么可能是插上去的?怎么可能是插上去的?都是我一棵一棵栽起來的!
“是嗎?”她冷眼旁觀,反問道。這樣的表白她也見多了,倘若是貨真價實的東西,何必這么著急,她心里又想。
眼看就要成功的交易,因為這一問停了下來,他著急得差點手舞足蹈,而他越是嘰里咕嚕地急著解釋:她越覺得他不誠實。忽然,老頭兒停了下來,從筐里拿起一棵茁壯的仙人掌,沒等女人反應(yīng)過來,用力一拉,把它的頂部從底峰土扯了下來,然后一手一個舉到女人眼前:“有牙簽嗎?”他用力問她。
沒有牙簽,扁扁的巴掌形的黃綠色軟刺仙人球從它的底峰土掉了下來?而它的底峰上生生裂開一道綠色肉質(zhì)溝壑,那首尾兩截早已渾然一體地生長。
證明了真假,女人付錢,老頭兒一臉自尊,挺著胸膛收錢,三塊錢一個,五塊錢兩個,老頭兒從布衫口袋里摸出裝錢的塑料袋,該找多少還找多少,也不計較身首異處的那一個。
老頭兒站起來把東西包扎好,送進女人的車筐里。生意小,服務(wù)周到,站起身時,順手撿起地上已成兩截的東西,一起送進了女人的筐里。
“不要扔了,兩截一起種在泥土里,兩截都能活。”老頭說。他笑了起來,露出銹蝕的牙齒,用東倒西歪的普通話安慰她,“放心好了,這植物最耐析騰,剛才那點事算不了什么,只要有點泥,就能長出根的!
兩截還能活,這不假,但女人看著老頭兒還是覺得心里生疼,仿佛受了傷的不是那棵仙人掌,而是別的什么,那別的什么像一只小手,躲在她的胸膛里,一下一下地搬她的心。那疼隱隱地從他腳下的那堆根須里傳過來、從他鬼樣的普通話中傳過來,從他那已經(jīng)裝在布彩口袋里的塑料錢袋里傳過來,從路上來往不息的車流人群里傳過來,疼得她直想落淚。
【小題1】.聯(lián)系全文,說說“蠻好的花買同家后發(fā)現(xiàn)是新種沒有根的,這種事情不是發(fā)生了一次”這句話在文中的作用。(3分)
【答】______________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________
【小題2】.當女人對們?nèi)苏啤笆钦婕藿由先サ模是用牙簽插上去的”提出疑問時,老人有什么表現(xiàn)?這樣寫有什么作用?(3分)

____________________________________________________________________________
【小題3】.說說你對選文劃線句中的兩個“用力”的理解。(2分)
【答】______________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________
【小題4】.女人買到了貨真價實的仙人掌,卻為什么“看著老頭幾還是覺得心里生疼”,甚至“疼得她直想落淚”?說說你的理解。(3分)
