问题     Mark went to the neighborhood meeting after work. The area’s city councilwoman (女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman. It was too much for Mark. "The problems are too big," he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, "I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here."
    On his way back, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery hag and baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn’t have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street.  The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and groceries started to fall out.  Mark ran to take the boy’s arm and led him back to his mother.  Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. "Thanks!" she said. "You’ve got great timing (适时) !"
    "Just being neighborly (友好的) ," Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus passed by. On one of them was "Small acts of kindness add up." Mark smiled and thought, "Maybe that’s a good place to start."  
The passage is mainly about______.

选项 A、how individuals can help make a difference
B、running a neighborhood meeting to solve its problems
C、citizens’ reactions to the problems they face
D、solving problems through group action

答案A

解析 短文主要讲述了一个对城市建设漠不关心的人,在自己帮助别人之后领悟,到个人的努力很重要,可以让生活变得更美好。因此选A。
