　　(2024·長沙模擬)I never thought I would have a life－changing experience at Wal－Mart.

　　Although my thoughts were only on speed，the checkout line I was standing in wasn’t moving as quickly as I wanted，and I glanced toward the cashier.

　　There stood a man in his seventies，wearing glasses and a nice smile.I thought，well，he’s an old guy!

　　For the next few minutes I watched him.He greeted every customer before scanning the items.Sure，his words were the usual，“How’s it going？”But he did something different—he actually listened to people.Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversation.

　　I thought it was odd.I have grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit.After a while，you don’t give any thought to the question and just mumble something back.I could say，“I just found out I have six months to live，”and someone would reply，“Have a great day！”

　　But that wasn’t the end.

　　He gave them the change，walked around the counter，and extended his right hand in an act of friendship.He looked at the customers in the eyes.“I sure want to thank you for shopping here today，”he told them.“You have a great day.Bye－bye.”

　　The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless.There were smiles and some sheepish grins.All had been touched by his simple gesture—and in a place they never expected.They would gather their things and walk out，smiling.

　　Of course，he did the same to me and I got to know his name，Marty.

　　“Giving advice when we’re not concerned is so easy，” murmured the father.

　　The surgery took several hours after which the doctor went out happy，“Thank goodness! Your son is saved！”And without waiting for the father’s reply he carried on his way running.“If you have any question，ask the nurse！”

　　“Why is he so arrogant? He couldn’t wait a few minutes so that I could ask about my son’s state，” commented the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.

　　(2024·郴州模擬)The X－Factor(英國偶像)，Britain’s Got Talent(英國達人)，American Idol(美國偶像)and Super Girl，TV talent shows are popular all over the world.

　　There are many reasons for that.To start with，the show can make the contestant(選手) famous overnight.Susan Boyle was an ordinary English woman before she appeared on Britain’s Got Talent，in which she sang “I Dreamed a Dream”．The video clip (片段) of her performance was viewed more than 50 million times within a few weeks.Second，the show offers a good opportunity to display one’s talents.Third，everybody has a fair chance to be involved in the show regardless of the age and background.Even if you can’t perform in the show，you can vote for your favorite contestant through cell phones and the Internet.Fourth，the fun and humorous style also appeals to young people.Last but not least，the modern media such as TV and the Internet contributes greatly to its rapid popularity.

　　However，many people express concerns about TV talent shows.They argue that the TV talent show misleads the young people and makes them believe that they can become famous overnight.Some think the show only creates entertainers rather than artists，because many winners have little idea about real music and acting.What’s worse，some judges even humiliate (羞辱) and laugh at contestants.One contestant from American Idol committed suicide because she couldn’t stand the rejection and humiliation.Even the winners suffer.Susan Boyle suffered a nervous breakdown soon after the show，because she was unable to deal with the pressure.
