高中英语学习材料(灿若寒星 *制作整理)必修三 M2 综合小测一、阅读理解A Robert Freddy was general manager of a large hotel in Ashbury Park,New Jersey
One cold day two years ago when he stopped his car at a traffic light,Stephen Pearman,an out-of-work taxi and truck driver,walked up to Freddy's car hoping to earn some change by washing his windshield (挡风玻璃 ).Like many motorists who try to keep the beggars off,Freddy turned on the wipers to show he wasn't interested
Pearman put his head close to the window
“Come on,mister
Give me a chance
I need a job,”he said
Something in Stephen Pearman's voice moved Robert Freddy
In the seconds before traffic started moving again,Freddy handed Pearman a business card and told him to call if he was serious
“My friends told me he was just pulling my leg,”said Pearman
