I had never been to Russia and my impression of that country was formed by what I heard and saw on television and in the newspaper. We were to be picked up at the airport by a driver who would then take us to the hotel and then go sightseeing. We arrived on time, got our baggage and went to the gate, but no one was waiting holding a sign with our names.We had the phone numbers of the driver and the travel agency but no phone worked in Russia. I noticed a young woman sitting next to me with a cell phone so I asked her if she spoke English and she replied “Yes”. Should she call our driver or the travel agency, I would pay for the call, I asked. “No problem,” she replied and called both numbers but no one answered.A Russian woman holding a sign with someone's name on it, not ours, must have overheard this conversation and took the paper and called both numbers. Again, no one answered. She shrugged and sat down and then her phone was ringing (the phone was from my driver) and in Russian she had a conversation.Then she started to tell me about the call from my driver, but in Russian. I said, “No Russian, English?” She said, “No English, Russian or Spanish.” The young woman who had made the first call said she spoke Spanish. So the Russian woman relayed (传达) the information from our driver to the young woman in Spanish. Then the young woman told the information to me in English.The three of us looked at each other and realized what had just happened and laughed and hugged each other. That was international kindness.1What can we infer from the first paragraph?AThe author came to Russia on business.BThe author knew Russia very well.CThe driver waited for the author at the airport on time.DThe driver didn't show up at the airport.2How can we describe the two women at the airport?ABoring.

Then everyone in the carriage began searching the ticket, which was eventually found under a seat several rows from his owner. The person who found a ticket smiled with pleasure at his success.No one in the carriage had previous spoken to or even noticed the ticketowner before.
