During the following days, I got the same call 40 .But I didn’t care much about it.
Then one day she contin ually called me, 41 I didn’t answer. In the end, I answered the phone and heard a torpid(有气无力的) voice, “ Dad, please come back. I miss you so much! Dad , I m 42 so much pain! Mom said you were too busy to take 43 of me. But, Dad ,please 44 me again, OK?” The kind of 45 was difficult to reject. I made a loud kiss on the phone and heard the 46 voice say, “Thank you … Dad , I am so … happy…”

When she couldn’t 52 the painful chemotherapy(化疗), she would cry for her dad, who had always 53 her. I really cou ldn’t bear it, so I gave her a random(任意的)phone number …”
“How is your daughter now?” I couldn’t 54 to ask.

Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I 17 a rest before catching the train, so I bought a 18 and some chocolate and went to the station coffee shop that was a cheap, self-service place with long 19 to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to 20 a place and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the 21 seat. It was one of those 22 young  man, with dark glasses and torn clothes, and hair colored bright 23 at the front, not so unusual these days. What did 24 me was he’d started to eat my chocolate! Naturally, I was annoyed. However, to avoid trouble—then really I was rather uneasy about him—I just 25 down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee, and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me 26 . then he t ook another piece of my chocolate. I could hardly 27 it. Still I didn’t want to start an argument. When he took a 28 piece , I felt more 29 than annoyed. I thought, “ Well, I shall have the last piece.” And I 30 it.
The boy gave me a 31 look, and then stood up. As he left, he shouted out, “This woman is mad!” Everyone 32 . That really made me feel silly, but it was 33 when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red—as red as his hair when I 34 I’d made a mistake.

From Monday until Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy themselves. Some watch TV or go to the movies; others take part in sports. It depends on individual interest. There are many different ways to spend our spare time.
Almost everyone has some kind of hobby. It may be anything from collecting stamps to making model airplanes. Some hobbies are very expensive, but others don’t cost anything at all. Some collections are worth a lot of money; others are valuable only to their owners.
I know a man who has a coin collection worth several thousand dollars. A short time ago he bought a rare fifty-cent piece worth $250！He was very happy about his purchase (buying) and thought the price was reasonable. On the other hand, my youngest brother collects matchboxes. He has almost 600 of them but I doubt if they are worth any money. However, to my brother they are extremely valuable. Nothing makes him happier than to find a new matchbox for his collection.
That’s what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for the fun of it. The value in dollars is not important, but the pleasure it gives us is.
小题1:The word “individual” in the first paragraph most probably means .| A．different | B．strange | C．secret | D．one’s own |
