It was a beautiful Sunday morning，and Maggie and I were returning from our walk through the woods. We were only a couple of blocks away from home when I suddenly saw a cellphone and a credit card sitting on the road. We took them home. We always find amazing things on the street and she looks upon them as a movable feast—a chicken wing here or a bone there.
I found another cellphone a few years back，too，and called a number in its phone book. I explained the situation to the guy who answered. He said it was his sister’s and that he’d come to pick it up，which he did.
And that was that. No verbal thank-you，no written thank-you，and no “here’s a box of chocolates” thank-you.
I didn"t have time to call anyone on my latest found cellphone. I was pouring myself coffee when it started to vibrate(振动)and dance across the kitchen counter.
“Who’s this?”someone asked when I picked up.
“Who"s this?" I asked. "Sarah?"
She was surprised at my knowing her name until she realized her name was on the credit card. “Could you send them to me?” she asked. She lives in Arlington，which is 2 miles away from my house.
“Hmm，no. ” I replied，adding that I thought she could come to get them，and that if I wasn’t at home，they would be in my mailbox.
A day later，when I was out for a run，someone came and took them away. There wasn"t even a piece of paper put in the mailbox with "Thanks" on it. In their age of e-mail and cellphone there"s really no excuse. Years ago，I found something more precious than a $100 bill on the street—a driver"s license. I saw that its owner lived a couple of blocks from me so I called him up. He asked whether I could slip the license through his front door.
“I guess I could，”I replied.
And that was that.
60. What is the relationship between Maggie and the writer?
A. Wife and husband. B. Daughter and father.
C. Teacher and student. D. Master and pet dog.
6 1. How did the writer know Sarah"s telephone number?
A. From her telephone’s phone book. B. From her credit card.
C. From her e-mail. D. From her driving license.
62. The writer wants to tell us through the unusual stories.
A. we should return the things we picked to the losers
B. we should learn to appreciate others because of the use of e-mail and cellphone
C. people would learn to appreciate persons who provide help)
D. the advance of society makes people lose some virtues(美德)
