完形填空。     Home, sweet home
     It was December 22. The cold wind swept the countless snowflakes (雪花) across my front yard. My
dad was there sweeping the   1   . His nose was   2    as a cherry. With every breath he took, a white puff
(水气) ran into the air.
     Inside, my mother was   3   the last of the boxes. As I entered the front door, the   4   that after today I
wouldn"t enter through that door ever again   5   a hole in my stomach. I picked up my dog and sat Indian
style with him in my arms on the   6  , wooden floor. I had no   7   but to sit on the floor, for there was no
longer any furniture existing in my house. I sat there in a daze (恍惚), just   8   . There was no reason for my
parents to make me, a once   9   12-year-old kid,   10   . I had two best friends right across the street; I did
well in school and I always kept my room clean.   11   , this was"my house". By no means did I want a couple
of  12   living here. These recurring (重复) thoughts  13   around in my mind and I couldn"t find an answer.
     Out of the front window I could see the orange top of a truck pulling in the cleaned driveway and I knew
it was the other U-Haul. Instantly three men came  14   in the back door like World War III was starting.
     I watched   15   as the men, my mother and my dad carried our belongings to the truck. My dog even
winced (畏缩) as he stared out of the window. I wondered if he was   16   , too, or if he just wished to play
outside in the snow.
     My mum came in, looking solemn (凝重). She turned   17   the overhead light, put the   18   in my arm
and took me out of the back door. A totally   19   feeling filled my heart. For the first time in my life, I
wondered what   20   would be to me tomorrow.

     Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents"
home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station (加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City,
where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register (收款台),
I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.
     I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped
and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas
station. They said they would take me to my friend"s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got
out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
     I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present
from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.
     Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car
and found that I"d left the lights on all day, and the battery (电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly
Ford dealership-a shop selling cars-was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the
showroom.
     "Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck
to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say
thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and
say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
     "Thank you"-two powerful words. They"re easy to say and mean so much.
1. The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City _____.
A. to visit a friend
B. to see his parents
C. to pay or the cash register
D. to have more gas for his car
2. What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car?
A. He had it pulled back to the gas station.
B. The couple sent him a business card.
C. The couple offered to help him.
D. He called his friend for help.
3. The battery of the author"s car was dead because _____.
A. something went wrong with the lights
B. the meeting lasted a whole day
C. he forgot to turn off the lights
D. he drove too long a distance
4. By telling his own experiences, the author tries to show _____.
A. how to write a thank-you letter
B. how to deal with car problems
C. the kind-heartedness of older people
D. the importance of expressing thanks

     It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming
up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work.
On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he
returned to find his bike gone.
     The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour
weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries (食品杂货), saving us from
having to walk long distances from where we live.
     I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story.
Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then
called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an
honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
     People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are
even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in
humanity (人性) as a whole. And it has influenced (影响) us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share
with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results
can be everlasting.
1. Why was the bike so important to the couple?
A. The man"s job was bike racing.
B. It was their only possession.
C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.
D. They used it for work and daily life.
2. We can infer from the text that _____.
A. the couple worked 60 hours a week
B. people were busy before Christmas
C. the stranger brought over the bike
D. life was hard for the young family
3. How did people get to know the couple"s problem?
A. From radio broadcasts.
B. From a newspaper.
C. From TV news.
D. From a stranger.
4. What do the couple learn from their experience?
A. Strangers are usually of little help.
B. One should take care of their bike.
C. News reports make people famous.
D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.

     My mother seemed to be able to make dolls (洋娃娃) out of anything. She made some dolls for me and my
two elder sisters. I   1   playing with them, but still, secretly, I hoped for a store-bought   2   like the one our
rich cousin had. Her doll   3   open and close its blue glass eyes and even say "Mamma". I   4   stopped
admiring it and hoping to have one.
     However, my dream   5   came true when I was six. One day my father came back from his business trip
with three   6   dolls! They were much smaller than our cousin"s doll and their eyes were just painted ones, but
I did not   7   such differences. They were   8   "store-bought" dolls. We each chose one and I named   9   
Misako.
      Soon my sisters and I became   10  . Our"children" kept us   11   all day. We gave them a bath,   12   them,
brushed their hair, took them out for a walk and put them to bed. Several months later, they got more like real
children-their   13   and bodies became dirtier; their dresses got stained; their hair less smooth.
     But, by then,   14   interests seemed to have moved into   15   toys. Their dolls were abandoned (被抛弃)
and in bad condition. One had   16   one of her arms, and   17   was one-legged."You can   18   them if you
want," my sisters said to me. Thus, I had   19   dolls. They were more or less handicapped (残疾) and they
often looked at me as if they needed me to   20   them. I enjoyed this feeling of being needed-being the only
one in the world who could protect them with a lot of love. Indeed, they made the rest of my childhood days
very happy.

     No one is glad to hear that his body has to be cut open by a surgeon (外科医生) and part of it taken out.
Today, however, we needn"t worry about feeling pain during the operation. The sick person falls into a kind
of sleep, and when he awakes, the operation is finished. But these happy conditions are fairly new. It is not
many years since a man who had to have operation felt all its pain.
     Long ago, operation had usually to be done while the sick man could feel everything. The sick man had to
be held down on a table by force while the doctors did their best for him. He could feel all the pain if his leg or
arm was being cut off, and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched.
     Soon after 1770, Josept Priestley discovered a gas which is now called "laughing gas". Laughing gas
became known in America. Young men and women went to parties to try it. Most of them spent their time
laughing, but one man at a party, Horace Wells, noticed that people didn"t seem to feel pain when they were
using this gas. He decided to make an experiment on himself. He asked a friend to help him.
     Wells took some of the gas, and his friend pulled out one of Well"s teeth. Wells felt no pain at all. As he
didn"t know enough about laughing gas, he gave a man less gas than he should have. The man cried out with
pain when his tooth was being pulled out.
     Wells tried again, but this time he gave too much of the gas, and the man died. Wells never forgot this
terrible event.
1. It is _______since a man being operated felt all the pain.
A. a few more years
B. not long
C. few years
D. two thousand years
2. Long ago, when the sick man was operated on, he ________.
A. could feel nothing
B. could not want anything
C. could feel all the pain
D. could do anything
3. Using the laughing gas, the people did not seem to ________.
A. be afraid of anything
B. feel pain
C. want to go to the parties
D. be ill
4. If a man took less laughing gas than he should have when an operation went on he _______.
A. felt nothing
B. felt very comfortable
C. still felt pain
D. would die

     The clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the
strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome stuff (东西) they call "books".
     I was going to have my examination the next day."When can I go to bed?" I asked myself. I didn"t answer,
In fact I dared not.
     The clock struck twelve."Oh, dear!" I cried."Ten more books to read before I can go to bed!" We pupils
are the most unhappy creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so
hard when he was a boy.
      The clock struck one. I was quite desperate (绝望的) now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go
on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, "Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to
work hard afterwards, Amen." My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them. A few minutes later,
with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.
1. When the author was going over his lessons, all the others in the house were _____.
