I woke up this morning. There is an empty feeling that I have had so many times before and it seems to be coming back into my mind. What is it? I can’t figure it out.
I got ready for work. On the way I decide to stop and get a cheese from the little shop just down the road. I have never been there before but I was hungry and it would be 5 hours before I got off work.
The owner of the store took my order. He asked me what I wanted and I told him I heard he made a great cheese. He seemed pleased to hear that.
As I was sitting in the small space，there was an elderly gentleman finishing his breakfast. He paid the waitress, received this change and made a small joke. As he turned to get up, which was quite a difficult feat for this gentleman, he looked over at me. I gave a small smile.
He looked again in my direction for a moment and said to me, “Has anyone ever told you, you have the most beautiful brown eyes?”
Seeing as I have blue eyes, I can’t say I have ever heard that before. I humored him and said, “No, I can’t say anyone has ever told me that before.”
He smiled, and said,“Well since they are blue you wouldn’t have heard that, but you have beautiful blue eyes.”
I laughed and said thank you very much. He began to tell me a few one liner jokes so I smiled and laughed at his jokes.
He tried to get up to leave again and looked at me and said“Your smile really brightens a room, do you know that?”I said,“Thank you very much.”
He proceeded to get up, which took him quite some time. As he got up he said,“Take care of that smile.”
I felt a sense of comfort wash over me and I reflected on my morning and that empty feeling I had. For a moment in time it seemed to be filled.

試題分析：文章主要敘述的是，作者早晨醒來，感到心情抑郁，但是在上班途中進(jìn)一家小店吃飯的時(shí)候，遇到了一位老人，老人的那種樂觀態(tài)度，改變了作者的心態(tài)。
1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第一段的第二句話可知作者醒來之后，感到心里空蕩蕩的，有有一種莫名其妙的情緒低落的感覺，因此選D。A困乏的；B充滿活力的；C生病的，均與事實(shí)不符。故選D。
2.推理判斷題。從老人起身很難的樣子知道他身體不是很好，但是老人風(fēng)趣幽默，而且他看到作者心情不好還和作者開玩笑并鼓勵(lì)作者，可知這個(gè)老人對生活很樂觀。B、C、D與原句不符。故選A。
3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。老人說了Well since they are blue you wouldn’t have heard that 這句話，利用blue這個(gè)詞有憂郁的意思，指別人心情不好，所以不會夸贊作者的漂亮的眼睛。A、D沒有提及；C與原文不符。故選B。
4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的倒數(shù)第二段的As he got up he said, “Take care of that smile.”以及最后一段作者在老人的玩笑和鼓勵(lì)之下，空蕩蕩的感覺消失了，對生活有了信心，可知我們應(yīng)該面對生活中的煩惱，一笑了之，積極樂觀地生活。故選C。

（Reuters）--- A Michigan man credited his dog with saving his life by chewing off his diseased big toe as he lay passed out in a drunken stupor(昏迷)
Jerry Douthett, 48, who woke up on a Saturday night in late July in his Rockford, Michigan home to find his Jack Russell Terrier, Kiko, had gnawed off his right big toe.
“The dog always lies with me on the bed”, said Douthett. “That night, I woke up and looked down at my foot, and it was wet. When I looked, it was blood and there was the dog looking at me with a blood moustache.”
Douthett’s wife, Rosee, rushed him to a hospital where doctors found he was suffering from Type 2 diabetes. His toe was badly infected and surgeons amputated(截)the remainder of the toe.
Douthett’s wife, a registered nurse, had been urging him for weeks to have his infected toe examined by a doctor.
On the night Kiko ate his toe, Douthett said he had been out with his wife and drank about six or seven beers and a pair of giant margaritas—big enough to put goldfish in.
“I was self-medicating at this point,” he said. “The moral of the story is that the dog saved my life, because otherwise I would never have gone to see a doctor.”
The couple said they were amazed that Kiko appeared to know Douthett had an infection that needed treatment.
“He kind of chewed off the infected part and stopped at the good bone,” said Rosee. “We joked that we shouldn’t have had to pay the co-pay because he did half the job by chewing off half of the toe.”
