二、阅读理解

I am 26. I’m clear that I’m never going to catch up with Mother Teresa. But I

want to do something to help people every single day like her.

Everybody thinks we just serve food and soda. The safety training is serious and stressful.

Caring for

49 people in a business class in 90 minutes is not easy. I had a roommate who was a waitress;

she just left a

candle and a table cloth burning, and I used a fire extinguisher to put out the fire. If

something goes bad at her job, she calls the police. But if something happens up in the

air, it’s up to us.

I’m single and have no kids. I’ve flown every Christmas since 1995. If I fly, someone

else can be with

their kids. Christmas in an airport can be depressing, but it’s the little things that

make a difference.

We’re not robots. It’s hard to put on a smile and just pretend everything is great when

it isn’t. I’ve

seen co-workers lose a family member the day before a trip and just pull themselves together

( take control

of their feelings and behave in a calm way). At the end of a 14-hour flight, it’s like,“It

was really nice to help

you, but I’m ready for you to get off the plane.” Those last 15 minutes can be the longest

15 minutes of your life. You can’t wait to turn off the flight attendant’s voice and get

something to eat without anyone saying “Excuse me.” 4 Sometimes I go all day and never hear a “please” or a “thank you” when you say “thank

you”, it’s huge. It makes us feel like you actually see us as fellow humans. We’re up

there together at a height of 30,000 feet, enjoying the miracle of the modern flight.

21．What’s the author’s attitude towards Mother Teresa?

A. Grateful B. Fearful C. Admiring D. Doubtful

22． How did the author like her roommate’s job?

A. It was the same as hers

B. It was more interesting than hers

C. It was easier than hers

D. It was more serious than hers

23．Why does the author fly every Christmas?

A. Because she has nowhere to go.

B. Because she’s trying to be a helpful co-worker.

C. Because she owes her co-workers some favors.
