Ⅰ.阅读理解

(2016·重庆市高三第一次适应性测试)
Just a couple of hours ago,I was on the plane,ready to fly home from London.The flight had been delayed by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to take-off.I had my iPod in place and a new book to read.Then,over the loudspeaker came the pilots voice:“The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire.We regret that we must cancel this flight.”
The passengers reactions that announcement led to were interesting.One man close to me began to argue with a flight attendant.A couple in another row complained loudly.A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front of him.Yet some passengers responded differently.An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments(行李架).A teenager,rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers,stopped to help a woman with a disability.The lady sitting next to me laughed and said:“Hey,its not the end of the world,”before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them.The wisest among us have a remarkable ability to maintain grounded when times get tough.
No life is perfect;mine certainly isnt.We all must face challenges,both large and small.You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circumstances.We always have the choice to be strong and kind when things fall apart.
Thats grace under pressure.My seatmate was right—things could have been so much worse.Anyway,I am safe.I have my health.I have two wonderful children.I have work I love and so much to be grateful for.Sure I now have to wait a few hours to catch the next flight home.
