课时分层作业(二十四) Ⅰ.阅读理解(限时7分钟) (2022·贵阳市监测考试) It's amazing how often we take advantage of things in life.When we're used to something，we don't always appreciate how lucky we are to have it.While we're here complaining that our Wi­Fi isn't fast enough and that our videos keep stuttering，there are people in Africa who don't even get to eat three meals a day.While most people work hard for the things they own，it's important to stop and think of what others don't have every now and again.You may not think that shoes are something worth going crazy over，but a Ugandan woman would disagree.After all，she went wild when she put on a pair of shoes for the first time in her life. That's what Laura Grier did one day.The woman was in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park，Uganda，when she felt it necessary to stop and help someone by the side of the road.The person in question was standing around without any shoes on，and the sight convinced Laura to give up her own footwear.She had more shoes at home，while this woman had never even worn a pair before. Laura's generosity was definitely appreciated by the stranger who treated her benefactor (捐助人) to a celebratory dance.The woman couldn't keep the smile from her face as she went wild in her brand new shoes.Laura was thrilled that her good deed had made the stranger so happy，and she cheered on the Ugandan woman as she danced in the street. Next time you buy a pair of shoes，remember how lucky you are to have them. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要通过Laura Grier将自己的鞋给了一位无鞋可穿的乌干达女士的故事，来告诉人们——要懂得珍惜自己拥有的一切。 1．What does the author talk about in the first paragraph?
