完形填空     During the years of depression(萧条), food and money were very hard to find and people had to trade
things with each other.
     One day I was   1   some potatoes from Mr Miller. I noticed a small poor boy hungrily   2   a full
basket of freshly picked green peas. Then I was  3 to see that Mr Miller sold the boy a bag of peas fo
r just a marble (弹球).
     Mrs Miller, who had been standing nearby,   4_ and told me that Mr Miller loved to trade with the
three boys in the village for peas, tomatoes, and other things   5 he didn"t really need any marbles. I left
the stand, smiling to myself,   6   by this man.
     Several years went by. One day I learned that Mr Miller had died. I took part in the funeral(葬礼),
_7   three young men . They came over to Mrs Miller, hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke with
her and moved on,   8 their eyes.
     Our   9 came to meet Mrs Miller. I mentioned  10    she had told me about the  11 She told me, "
Those three young men above were the boys I told you about. They just told me   12 they appreciated
the things Jim "traded "with them. Now, at last, they came to pay their debt."
      "We"ve   13   had a great deal of the wealth in this world," she  14 , "but right now, Jim wouldW#W$ W%.K**S*&5︿U consider himself to be the   15   man."
      Then she gently lifted the  16     fingers of her husband. Resting underneath were three red marbles.
     At that time I realized that we would not be   17    by our words, but by our kind   18 . It is said that
it takes a minute to find a   19 person, an hour to appreciate him, a day to love him, but an entire life to
20   him.

     It was the summer of 1965. Deluca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked Deluca
about his plan for the future. "I"m going to college, but I need a way to pay for it, " Deluca recalls saying. "Buck said, "you should open a sandwich shop.""
     That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years. After
doing some research, Buck wrote a check for $1,000. Deluca rented a storefront (店面) in Connecticut,
and when they couldn"t cover their startup costs, Buck kicked in another $1,000.
     But business didn"t go smoothly as they expected. Deluca says, "After six months, we were doing
poorly, but we didn"t know how badly, because we didn"t have any financial controls." All he and Buck
knew was that their sales were lower than their costs.
     Deluca was managing the store and to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was
working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York. They"d meet Monday evenings and brainstorm
ideas for keeping the business running. "We convinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we
could tell the public, "We are so successful; we are opening a second store."" And they did-in the spring
of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.
     But the partners" learnasyougo approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday,
Deluca would drive around and handdeliver the checks to pay their supplies. "It probably took me two
and a half hours and it wasn"t necessary but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the
personal relationships established really helped out, " Deluca says.
     And having a goal was also important. "There are so many problems that can get you down. You just
have to keep working toward your goal, " Deluca adds.
Deluca ended up founding Subways Sandwich, the multimilliondollar restaurant chain.

1. Deluca opened the first sandwich shop in order to ________.

A. support his family
B. pay for his college education
C. help his partner expand business
D. do some research

2. Which of the following is true of Buck?

A. He put money into the sandwich business.
B. He was a professor of business administration.
C. He was studying at the University of Bridgeport.
D. He rented a storefront for Deluca.

3. What can we learn about their first shop?

A. It stood at an unfavorable place.
B. It lowered the prices to poor management.
C. It made no profits due to poor management.
D. It lacked control over the quality of sandwich.

     A mother from Colorado who doctors said had died while giving birth to her son, has said it is a
Christmas miracle that both she and the boy are alive.
      Tracey Hermanstorfer"s heart stopped beating and her son Coltyn appeared lifeless after the
Caesarean (剖腹产术) section on Christmas Eve.However a few minutes after he was born, both began
breathing again.Dr Stephanie Martin told Good Morning America she could not explain how the pair
survived.Mrs Hermanstorfer and her husband Mike told the American television show that their baby
was now healthy and that they were doing "good" following the drama at Colorado Springs Memorial
Hospital.
     The couple, who already had two children, had to go into the hospital seven weeks earlier than
planned.Her husband,37, said his wife was tired after receiving an epidural (硬膜外麻醉) during the
labour (分娩) but after closing her eyes, she "wasn"t waking up". She stopped breathing and she is
believed to have suffered a heart attack before her heart stopped beating entirely.
     Dr Martin said she was called in and that the outlook was grim since in most situations like this, "
despite the best efforts of the team", the mother was often unable to be revived.In that case doctors then
tried to focus on delivering the baby but when he was born he was "completely lifeless".
     Mr Hermanstorfer told the Associated Press news agency, "I had everything in the world taken
from me, and in an hour and a half I had everything given to me."
     Dr Martin said she did not have a "great explanation" for why Mrs Hermanstorfer"s heartbeat returned."Somewhere between four and five minutes she had been without heart rate and had stopped breathing
a minute or two prior to her heart stopping, " she said.The doctors were then able to bring the baby back
to life, and the mother was alive after that.
     Despite tests, she said doctors were still not sure about what had happened.However Mrs
Hermanstorfer and her husband Mike have said they believed it was down to a miracle.She said:"I got a
second chance in life."

1. The story happened on________.

A. December,24
B. December,25
C. December,31
D. January,1

2. What might have happened to Tracey Hermanstorfer just before her heart stopped beating?

C. She had a bad headache.
D. She suffered a heart attack.
