Our society often judges books by their covers but God reads what is written in our hearts and souls. Perhaps one day we will all learn to see the world through the same eyes. Perhaps one day we will realize that looks matter little and actions matter much.

　　文章大意：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者在等红灯时见到了四位穿着皮夹克、骑自行车的年轻人，他们看起来粗鲁而危险，然而他们正在为贫困儿童募捐，他们的目光充满善良和友好。此事让作者意识到，不能以貌取人，而应看他人的行动。

　　1．The writer's good mood ended when

　　________.

　　A．he heard news between songs

　　B．he had to stop at a red traffic light

　　C．he heard a rich man broke the law

　　D．he saw four leather­jacketed bikers

　　2．What were the four bikers doing at the traffic lights?

　　A．Having a bicycle race in the street.

　　B．Selling helmets to the passers­by.

　　C．Raising money to help kids in need.

　　D．Preparing for Christmas holidays.

　　3．What does “bolstered” in the second paragraph probably mean?

　　A．Destroyed.

　　B．Improved.

　　C．Decreased.

　　D．Exploded.

　　答案：B　词义猜测题。根据第二段画线词的上下文内容可知，作者起初对这四个人印象不好，因为他们看起来很粗鲁，并且很危险。但在得知他们真正的目的后，作者的看法改变了。作者对人性的认识得到了提升，明白了“不能以貌取人”的道理。因此bolster应与improve意思相近。故答案选B。
