　Unit 5　Theme parks Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2017·石家庄第一次考试) When I was about ten years old, I was walking down the street with my mother. She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee, and I knew I could see Mr. Lee any time around the neighborhood, so I didnt pay any attention to him. After we passed Mr. Lee, my mother stopped me and said something that has stuck with me from that day until now. She said, “You let that be the last time youve ever walked by somebody and not opened up your mouth to speak, because even a dog will wag its tail when it passes you on the street.” Mothers words sound simple, but its been a guidepost for me and the foundation of who I am. Its not just something I believe in; its become a way of life. I believe that every person deserves to feel someone acknowledge their presence, no matter how humble (卑微的) they may be. At work, I always said hello to the founder of the company and asked him how our business was doing. But I also spoke to the people who cleaned the buildings and asked how their children were doing. After a few years of greeting the founder, I had the courage to ask him for a meeting. We had a great talk. At a certain point I asked him how far he thought I could go in his company. He said, “If you want to, you can get all the way to this seat.” Ive become vice president, but that hasnt changed the way I approach people. I still follow my mothers advice. I speak to everyone I see, no matter where I am. Ive learned that speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and it allows them to come into mine, too. 【解题导语】　作者小时候因为在路上没有给邻居打招呼而受到了母亲的批评。母亲的话使作者悟出了主动与别人交流的重要性。 1．What did the author do when he met Mr. Lee?
