And 1 otherwise assigned (指定) a seat by the teacher, I always 2 to sit at the back of the
classroom.
All this 3 after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball
team. At first I thought it was a crazy 4 because I didn"t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have
the 5 to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept
insisting on my " 6 for it", I wouldn"t have decided to give a try.
Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the 7 of it! When I first started 8 the
practice sessions, I didn"t even know the rules of the game, much 9 what I was doing. Sometimes I"d
get 10 and take a shot at the wrong direction-which made me feel really stupid. 11 , I wasn"t the only
one "new" at the game, so I decided to 12 on learning the game, do my best at each practice session,
and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn"t 13 "just yet".
I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 14 and the "moves". Being part of a team was fun and
motivating. Very soon the competitive 15 in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I
learned how to play and made friends in the 16 - friends who respected my efforts to work hard and
be a team player. I never had so much fun!
With my 17 self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from
"18" in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself, 19 raising my
hand- even when I sometimes wasn"t and not 100 percent 20 I had the right answer. Now I have
more self-confidence in myself.

the pots across her neck.
One of the pots had a crack (裂缝) in it while the other pot was perfect and always delivered (递送)
a full pot of water. At the end of the long walk from the well to the house, the cracked pot arrived only
half-full.
For two years this happened daily, with the woman bringing home only one and a half pots of water.
Of course, the perfect pot was proud. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection.
One day, the cracked pot spoke to the woman by the well: "I am ashamed of myself because this
crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house."
The old woman smiled: "Did you notice that there are flowers on your side of the path, but not on the
other pot"s side? That"s because I have always known about your crack, so I planted flower seeds on
your side of the path. And every day while we walk back, you water them."
"For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate (装饰) the table. Without
you being just the way you are, I would not have this beauty."
Each of us has our own cracks. But it"s these cracks that make our lives together so interesting and
meaningful.
B. Happy.
C. Excited.
D. Ashamed.
B. In the woman"s house.
C. On the perfect pot"s side.
D. On the cracked pot"s side.

① The woman picked the flowers and decorated the table.
② The woman told the truth to the cracked pot.
③ The cracked pot talked to the woman about its crack.
④ The woman found a crack on one pot.
⑤ The woman planted some flower seeds.
B. ⑤④③②①
C. ④③①②⑤
D. ④⑤③①②
B. Try your best to be perfect in life.
C. Imperfection makes life meaningful.
D. Don"t use a cracked pot to carry water.

One day, three people rushed in and grabbed food off the shelves as fast as they could, 4 not
intending to pay for it. He hit the "panic button" , then went over the counter and 5 the front door. It

Imagine what they must have felt like when they were told they didn"t have to steal if they were that 9 . "We have food in the back, expired (到期) but still 10 to eat. If you need food, you 11
have some."
They were told to 12 what they had dropped and put it back, and then asked to straighten out the
mess. They were doing just that 13 the police arrived. The officers were told the situation was under
control and the police were no longer 14 .
This wasn"t what they had 15 . They were being treated as human beings who could right the wrong
they"d done. Shocked, they quickly followed orders to take turns and use the restroom to clean up.
Soon three 16 people walked out with all the 17 their arms could hold. They were 18 that, if
they needed to come back again, they were to ask and not just grab.
And then the young man went back to read until the next customer came in. He would be the 19

kindergarten, spent the weekend with me. Since I moved to a new town several years ago,we"ve both
always looked forward to the few times a year when we can see each other.
Over the weekend, we spent hours and hours, staying up late into the night, talking about the people
she was hanging around with. She started telling me stories about her new boyfriend, about how he
experimented with drugs and was into other selfdestructive behaviour. I was blown away! She told me
how she had been lying to her parents about where she was going and even stealing out to see this guy
because they didn"t want her around him. No matter how hard I tried to tell her that she deserved better,
she didn"t believe me. Her selfrespect seemed to have disappeared.
I tried to convince her that she was ruining her future and heading for big trouble. I felt like I was
getting nowhere. I just couldn"t believe that she really thought it was acceptable to hang out with a bunch
of losers, especially her boyfriend.
By the time she left, I was really worried about her and exhausted by the experience. It had been so
frustrating, I had come close to telling her several times during the weekend that maybe we had just
grown too far apart to continue our friendship, but I didn"t. I put the power of friendship to the final test.
We"d been friends for far too long. I had to hope that she valued me enough to know that I was trying to
save her from hurting herself. I wanted to believe that our friendship could conquer anything.
A few days later, she called to say that she had thought long and hard about our conversation, and
then she told me that she had broken up with her boyfriend. I just listened on the other end of the phone
with tears of joy running down my face. It was one of the truly rewarding moments in my life. Never had
I been so proud of a friend.
B. could find a better boyfriend
C. was brave enough to stick to her own choice
D. didn"t value the writer"s suggestion
B. Her friend"s parents would be worried about their daughter.
C. Her friend would get into great trouble with the boy.
D. Her friend"s boyfriend would be in great trouble.
B. understood her friend"s hanging with her boyfriend
C. couldn"t believe that her friend"s choice was acceptable
D. doubted that she could in any way help her friend
B. Friendship is a cure for any injury in life.
C. Friendship should be everlasting once begun.
D. Friendship can have magical power in life.
for Christmas Eve dinner, I cried in panic. What would Robert think of our shabby Chinese Christmas?
What would he think of our noisy Chinese relatives who lacked proper American manners?
On Christmas Eve, my mother created abundant Chinese food. And then they arrived-the minister"s
family and all my relatives. Robert greeted hello, and I pretended he was not worthy of existence.
Dinner threw me deeper into disappointment. My relatives licked (舔) the ends of their chopsticks
and reached across the table. Robert and his family waited patiently for a large plate to be passed to
them. My relatives murmured with pleasure when my mother brought out the whole steamed fish. Robert
made a face. Then my father reached his chopsticks just below the fish eye and picked out the soft
meat. "Amy, your favorite." he said, offering me the tender fish cheek. I wanted to disappear.
At the end of the meal, my father leaned back and burped(打嗝) loudly, thanking my mother for her
fine cooking. "It"s a polite Chinese custom to show you are satisfied." explained my father to our
astonished guests. Robert was looking down at his plate with a reddish face. The minister managed to
bring up a quiet burp. I was shocked into silence for the rest of the night.
After everyone had gone, my mother said to me ,"You want to be the same as American girls on the
outside." She handed me an early gift.It was a miniskirt ."But inside you must always be Chinese. You
must be proud that you are different. Your only shame is to have shame."
It was not until years later that I was able to fully appreciate her lesson and the purpose behind her
particular menu. For Christmas Eve that year, she had chosen excellent Chinese food.

children. Suddenly the young ones began to shout at her. The traveller"s face turned red and she
apologized to the head for what she was doing, and told him she had forgotten that people in some places believed a person would lose his soul (灵魂) if his picture was taken. She explained to him the operation
of a camera for a long time. Several times the head tried to say something, but he couldn"t. When she
