PAGE PAGE 14 Unit 13 People单元综合检测 Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分) A (2017·辽宁六校协作体高二下期中)Ive always felt a need to be prepared for whatever situation Ive found myself in. My mother once took me to a store when I was seven years old.She and I got to the checkout counter，and she realized she had forgotten a couple of things on her shopping list.She left me with the cart and ran off to get what she needed. “Ill be right back.” she said. She was gone just a few minutes，but in that time，I had loaded all the things on the belt and everything was rung up.I was left staring at the cashier，who was staring at me.“Do you have money for me，son？” she said.“Ill need to be paid.” I didnt realize she was just trying to amuse herself.So I stood there，ashamed and embarrassed. By the time my mom returned，I was angry.“You left me here with no money! This lady asked me for the money，and I had nothing to give her.” Now that Im an adult，youll never catch me with less than 200 in my wallet.I want to be prepared in case I need it. Ive always admired people who are over-prepared.In college，I had a classmate named Norman.One day he was giving a presentation on an overhead projector and in the middle of his talk，the light bulb on the projector blew out.We would have to wait ten minutes until someone found a new projector. “Its Okay.” he announced.“Theres nothing to worry about.” We watched him walk over to his bag and pull something out.He had brought along a spare bulb for the overhead projector.Who could even think of that? I often told my students，“When you go into the wilderness，the only thing you can depend on is what you take with you.” And essentially，the wilderness is anywhere but your home or office.So take money.Pack a light bulb.Be prepared. 【语篇解读】　本文属于记叙文阅读，作者通过讲述两个小故事告诉我们凡事都要做好准备。 1．Why did the cashier ask a seven-year-old boy to pay for the purchases?
