语 篇 提 能 阅读理解 A I was living in Sao Paulo, Brazil. It is a huge city, with more people living in it than in my whole country(Hungary, which has a population of 10 million). We rented a flat in a community, but there was a shanty town (贫民区) quite near. I used public transportation to go to the city centre three times a week. During these trips, I would ride with the people who took the same bus from the shanty town to go to work. When I got on the bus, all the seats were already taken. But when people saw that my bag was heavy (full of books), they offered to hold it on their lap, to make me feel lighter standing. At first, I was shocked. Then I realized that these people had absolutely no intention to steal from me: they only wanted to help. Once, on my way back, I had to wait for a long time at a bus stop. I was alone, except for a woman who was apparently very poor. She carried a small paper bag of popcorn and nothing else. While we were waiting, she walked over and offered me some popcorn. I thanked her, but didnt want to help myself to it. She then repeatedly insisted that I take from what was evidently her only food. I was so moved by the women. That was the first time I thought about how people who have almost nothing, are sometimes able to share the little they have so much more “easily” than those who own a lot. 语篇解读　 本文是记叙文。作者在巴西的圣保罗生活时，遇见了一些 善良的人，感人的事情。他不禁感慨：穷人更容易和人分享，他们更淳朴， 更慷慨。 1．Where did the author live?
