“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford？” I asked

　　and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment. When I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say “thank you”， and it meant a lot, he said.

　　“Thank you” — two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.

　　语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过讲述两个自己在遇到困难时得到他人无私帮助的故事，说明了在接受帮助时表达感谢的重要性。

　　8．Why did the writer get into the old couple's car?

　　A．Because his parents were in the car.

　　B．Because his car had broken down.

　　C．Because his friend told him to do so.
