One day I got into a taxi and we took off for the airport.

We were driving in the right way when suddenly a black jeep jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver had to stop the car at once, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car started shouting at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy, and I mean, he was really friendly.

So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost destroyed your car and sent us to the hospital!” This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, “The Law of the Garbage Truck(垃圾车).”

He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of anger(愤怒). As their garbage gets more, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they’ll dump it on you. Don’t take it seriously. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take their garbage and pass it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.

考点名称：健康环保类阅读

健康环保类阅读：

本类型主要是围绕饮食健康、医疗卫生及环境保护等方面选取实际的材料来设题。

体裁有记叙文、说明文、议论文和各种应用文。

健康环保类阅读题答题注意事项和技巧：

应试生态环保类题目时，在理解文章的基础上，要重点突破——归纳主旨大意技能，因为推断是以整体理解为基础的推断能力。

1.归纳主旨大意：

(1)寻找具体段落的中心思想的方法是：找出每小段的主题句。

主题句通常有这样的特点：

①有一个话题(topic)；

②有阐述控制性概念，偶尔也可在一段中间；

③有的文章无明显主题句，主题句隐含在段意之中。这就需要读者进一步加工概括了。

(2)寻找整篇文章的中心思想的方法建立在寻找具体段落中心的基础上的。

应观察全文的结构安排，理解文章浓墨重笔写的“重心”，考虑文章组织材料及支撑性细节是服务于什么的，分析故事的发展结局都是围绕什么中心大意来安排的。
