There are many kinds of friends. Some are always 1_ you, but don"t understand you. Some say only a few words to you, but understand you. Many people will step in your life, but only 2_ friends leave
footprints (脚印).
I shall always recall (回忆) the autumn and the girl with the 3 _ .She will always bring back the friendship between us. I know she will always be my best friend.
It was the golden season. I could see the yellow leaves 4 on the cool 5 .In such a season, I
liked walking alone in the leaves, 6 to the sound of them.
Autumn is a 7_ season and life is uninteresting. The free days always get me 8 .But one day,
the sound of a violin 9 into my ears like a stream (小溪) flowing in the mountains. I was so surprised
that I jumped to see what it was. A young girl, standing in the wind, was 10 in playing her violin.
I had __11__ seen her before. The music was so nice that I listened quietly. Lost in the music, I didn"t
know that I had been __12__there for so long but my existence (存在) did not seem to disturb her.
Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin in the corner of the building _ 13 I went
downstairs to watch her performance. I was the only listener. The autumn seemed no longer lonely and life became 14 . 15 we didn"t know each other, I thought we were already good friends. I believe she also loved me.
Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening carefully, the sound suddenly __16 . To my astonishment (惊讶), the girl came over to me.
"You must like violin." she said.
"Yes. And you play very well. Why did you stop?" I asked.
Suddenly, a 17 expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.
"I came here to see my grandmother, but now I must leave. I once played very badly. It was your
listening every day that 18 me." she said.
"In fact, it was your playing 19 gave me a meaningful autumn," I answered, "Let"s be friends."
The girl smiled, and so did I.
I never heard her play again in my life. I no longer went downstairs to listen like before. Only thick
leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the fine figure (身影) of the girl. She is like a 20
so short, so bright, like a shooting star giving off so much light that it makes the autumn beautiful. |

One stormy night many years ago, an elderly man and his wife entered the hall of a small hotel in
Philadelphia. Trying to get out of the rain, they came to the front desk hoping to get some shelter for the
night.
"Could you possibly give us a room here?" the husband asked.
The clerk, a friendly man with a winning smile, looked at the couple and explained that there were three conventions in town. "All of our rooms are taken", the clerk said. "But I can"t send a nice couple like you
out into the rain at one o"clock in the morning. Would you perhaps be willing to sleep in my room? It"s not exactly a suite, but it will be good enough to make you folks comfortable for the night."
When the couple declined, the young man pressed on. "Don"t worry about me. I"ll make out just fine,"
the clerk told them. So the couple agreed.
As he paid his bill the next morning, the elderly man said to the clerk, "You are the kind of manager
who should be the boss of the best hotel in the United States. Maybe some day I"ll build one for you." The clerk looked at them and smiled. The three of them had a good laugh. As they drove away, the elderly
couple agreed that the helpful clerk was indeed exceptional, as finding people who are both friendly and
helpful isn"t easy.
Two years passed, the clerk had almost forgotten the incident when he received a letter from the old
man. It recalled that stormy night and enclosed a round-trip ticket to New York, asking the young man to pay them a visit.
The old man met him in New York, and led him to the corner of the Fifth Avenue and 34th Street. He
then pointed to a great new building there, a pale reddish stone one, with turrets and watchtowers thrusting up to the sky. "That," said the older man, "is the hotel I have just built for you to manage." "You must be
joking," the young man said. "I can assure you I am not," said the older man, a sly smile playing around his mouth.
The older man"s name was William Waldorf Astor, and that magnificent structure was the original
Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. The young clerk who became its first manager was George C. Boldt. This young
clerk never foresaw the turn of events that would lead him to become the manager of one of the world"s
most glamorous hotels. |
| 1. Which of the statements about the story is NOT true? |
A. The story took place at about one a.m.
B. The old couple was too poor to afford a luxurious room.
C. The clerk was willing to help those in need.
D. The clerk received an unexpected invitation from the old man. |
| 2. The underlined word "conventions" in Para. 3 can be replaced by ___________? |
A. rooms
B. buildings
C. meetings
D. hotels |
| 3. Which of the following proverbs suits the story the best? |
A. Every little thing helps.
B. Make hay while the sun shines.
C. Man proposes, God disposes.
D. One good turn deserves another |

The sound of the rain hitting the windows wakes me up and it sounds just exactly as it did 15 years
ago, which reminded me of my girlhood.
It was my second day of 1 and it was raining heavily. I could not 2 the habit I had at home , so
I fell asleep right at my 3 . I woke up to find myself not in the classroom but carried on Dad"s back.
We were 4 home. It was the last time I felt 5 to him.
After that, he never carried me or hugged me as other fathers did to their children. I was not
bothered much by this 6 . I was proud of it, for I felt 7 and "grown up." However, there were times
when I felt depressed by not having sought 8 from him.
One day, I was writing Chinese characters as homework. I hated doing this more than anything. Dad
came and stood behind me for a moment, 9 me scratching (乱涂,勾抹) the paper. Then he said, "This
kind of writing needs 10 .Your writing is not strong enough. Press harder."
I follow his 11 for the next two words, but 12 I could see little improvement, I followed my own
method the 13 way. His advice did not improve my writing but our 14 . As I grew older, I found out
that he had finished his 15 in Grade 6, which was the highest grade in town then, so he was considered
to be a 16 . People used to ask him to write something to put on the walls, but he never felt very useful.
He often said to me, "As you can see, this family is going to depend on you. We are 17 to improve
you anything for your future .You have to get 18 to change the life for yourself."

I was shopping in the supermarket when I heard a young voice.
"Mom, come here! There"s this lady here my size!"
The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize.
I smiled and told her, "It"s okay." Then I talked to the boy, "Hi, I"m Darryl Kramer. How are you ?"
He studied me from head to toe, and asked, "Are you a little mommy?"
"Yes, I have a son," I answered.
"Why are you so little?" he asked.
"It"s the way I was born," I said. "Some people are little. Some are tall. I"m just not going to grow any
bigger. " After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy"s hand and left.
My life as a little person is filled with stories like that. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I
1ook different from their parents.
It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness. I stand three feet nine inches tall. I was born an a
chondroplasia dwarf (侏儒). Despite this, I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up.
I didn"t realize how short I was until I started school. Some kids picked on me, calling me names.
Then I knew. I began to hate the first day of school each year. New students would always stare at me
as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs.
But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life.I decided to
make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. What I lacked in height, I made up for in
personality.
I"m 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as I"ve grown older. People are amazed when they
see me driving. I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, "Look what else I
have -- a great family, nice friends. "
It"s the children"s questions that make my life special. I enjoy answering their questions. My hope is
that I will encourage them to accept their peers ( a person of the same age, class, position, etc. ),
whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect.
