My friend who I caught up with last night shared this story with me. My friend lived in an apartment that overlooked a busy street in an inner city. On Christmas Eve，from her window she saw a woman，alone，upset and in distress. She went out and down to the street and asked if she was okay.
My friend could see that all was not well. So she invited the woman into her apartment，and the woman asked if she could take a shower. My friend said yes，and gave her a fresh towel and clean clothes to wear. The woman showered. About an hour later，she came out. She said she was alone in the city and had nowhere to stay. My friend said that she could stay on the couch for the night. My friend felt that being late on Christmas Eve，it would be impossible to get social agency assistance. It was also the beginning of our term break and it would be difficult to get anyone to help. The woman stayed the night.
In the morning，my friend wrapped a small gift for this woman，wishing her “Merry Christmas”.She also gave the woman breakfast，washed and dried her clothes and tried to help her plan her next steps. The woman said that she had thought of somewhere to go to，thanked my friend and then left. A few months later，my friend got a phone call from the woman. She was in residential care，and getting help for mental illness. With medication she was feeling better. She thanked my friend for caring about her when it seemed no one else in the world would.

Life on the street is a constant struggle for homeless people. In times of extreme weather conditions，that struggle becomes even more difficult. Recently，homeless people across Chicago faced freezing to death if they couldn’t find shelter for the night.
Thankfully，one local woman refused to let that happen. On January 30，2018，34-year-old Candice Payne，a local managing broker，was lucky enough to have shelter from the dangerous conditions.
“It was -20℃，and I knew they were going to be sleeping on ice and I had to do something，”said Payne. Payne started brainstorming different ways she could possibly help. Finally，she decided to see if there were any rooms available at local inns and hotels that she could get to help those stuck on the street.
For Payne，her mission was personal. According to Payne，her husband，Carlos Callahan，had lived on the streets at one point in his life. Based on his experiences，Payne knew that the homeless people still out on the street desperately needed help and that if she didn’t step up to help，no one would likely do.
However，when Payne explained what she was trying to do，many of the local hotels refused to allow her to pay for the rooms as they didn’t want homeless people to stay in their rooms.“No one wanted them，but one hotel，the Amber Inn，was nice enough to allow me to buy the rooms，”said Payne.
Payne’s selfless act made news across the country. However，she insisted she had never done it for attention.“I am a regular person，”said Payne，who spent thousands of dollars of her own money to help complete strangers.“It all sounded like a rich person did this，but I’m just a little black girl from the South Side.”
5. What does the underlined word“that”in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. Locals living on the street. B. The homeless freezing to death.
C. The extreme weather. D. The shelter for the homeless.
6. How did Candice Payne help the homeless people
A. By drawing public attention. B. By giving them money directly.
C. By taking them to her own house. D. By buying hotel rooms for them.
7. What may contribute to Payne’s nice act
A. Her husband’s past experiences. B. The requests from the homeless.
C. Her desire to become famous. D. The coldness of local hotels.
8. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A Black Fighter Changes the World B. A Woman’s Curiosity Brings a Reward
C. A Regular Woman Makes a Difference D. A Couple’s Brave Act Moves the Country
