答案 The Qualities of a Good Neighbor If you have a good neighbor, you are a lucky person. You have someone who cares about your needs and your property, who is helpful in the little day-to-day situations that come up, and who is supportive in times of crisis. A good neighbor is someone who, for instance, understands that your children may occasionally run across his lawn, even though you tell them not to. He’ll realize that children can be careless about things like that, and he won’t make a big fuss about it unless it becomes a regular thing. In the same vein, he knows that you’ll understand if some of the trash from his trash cans blows across into your yard. In other words, he is sensitive to the unintentional things that can happen. He doesn’t make a big deal about them. A good neighbor is also respectful of your property. For example, she asks your permission before doing anything that interferes with what’s yours. This means she wouldn’t plant a huge tree in between your houses without asking how you feel about it. If she wanted to put up a fence, she would let you know first. She might work with you to decide where it should be placed. Maybe the two of you would even split the cost. A good neighbor would lend you some milk if you ran out. She’d give you a ride to work if your car was broken, and let your children stay at her house in the evening if you got stuck working overtime. You would do the same for her. Both of you would help make the other’s life easier. When something really awful happens to you, like a death in the family, a good neighbor will volunteer to help in any way he can. This could mean something small, like making some casseroles to put in your freezer to feed vesting relatives, Or it could mean something big, like helping you get through the sadness of the funeral. I think only someone who has experienced a bad neighbor can really appreciate a good one! A good neighbor can be a good friend. He or she can make all the difference in the world to your life.

解析     开篇直截了当进入正题,好邻居应该关心你的需求、财产,可以帮助你处理日常生活中碰到的情况,可以在你遇到危机时伸出援手。
    第二段举例说明好邻居的特征。比如,你已经教育孩子不要践踏邻居的草坪,但孩子有可能偶尔仍然会这样做,好邻居会理解这种情况,不会大惊小怪。他明白有些事情不是故意的,不会放在心上。
    好邻居会尊重你的财产。比如,她在做任何有可能影响你的事情之前会征得你的同意。也就是说,她不会在没有询问你的感受之前,在你们两家房子之间种一棵大树。
    好邻居会在你有困难时伸出援助之手。比如,你没有牛奶时,好邻居会借给你。如果你汽车坏了,她会载你去上班。如果你要加班,可以把孩子留在他们家。邻居之间互相帮助,让彼此的生活更轻松一些。
    此段进一步详细说明好邻居的特质。如果家里发生了不幸的事情,比如,家人过世时,好邻居可以做些小事,像在你家冰箱里放些食物,或者可以做些大事,像陪你参加葬礼。
    最后,文章对好邻居的特征进行总结——好邻居就是好朋友,他/她可以给你的生活带来巨大的变化。
