He really 13 me up as he went out of his way to get me to my apartment.
What was more 14 , however, was the story behind it. During the ride, the driver told me that when he
saw me walking, it made him think of his 15 who used to walk to work by the 16 road and though he often
saw his uncle on the way, he had 17 offered a ride as he was headed in a different direction. 18 his uncle
passed away because of an illness, and until today he still feels 19 for not being kinder to his uncle. So when

It involves body, 7 , and soul. There"s sand between my toes and cool, salt water all 8 us. The feeling I get
when I"m surfing across that 9 , becoming one with the 10 , is like I"m weightless.
The one thing I can 11 from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge. You can never be the "best
surfer" because the ocean 12 an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of
surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing; others are very aggressive (活跃有力的) and
13 . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it 14 from any other sport.
I"ve 15 to tell every girl I know to do something that people don"t think girls can do. It"s part of being human
to advance to new 16 , so shouldn"t it be expected that girls should step up and start 17 the limits of things boys

one hundred and two years old. "There"s a 1 in my upper jaw," she said. "I told my own dentist it"s nothing,
but he 2 I come to see you".
Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her. He would 3 to add something, but she stopped him. She wanted
to tell everything herself. I found a large cancer that spread over much of the 4 of her mouth. A careful
examination later 5 that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.
During her next appointment, I explained to her the 6 of the problem. She clasped my hand in hers and
said, "I know you"re worried about me, but I"m just 7 ."
I thought otherwise. After considerable 8 on my part, and kindness on her part because she wanted
to 9 me, she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon. She saw him, but as I expected, 10 treatment.
About six months later she returned to my office, still energetic and 11 .
"How are you?"I asked.
"I"m just fine., honey," she responded 12 high spirits. "When can I get stared on fixing my dentures (假牙)?"
Surprised to see her at all, I answered 13 , "Let me take a look in your mouth and we"ll see about it."
I couldn"t believe my eyes. The cancer that had 14 nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone-only one
small area of redness 15 .
I had read of such things happening, but had 16 seen them with my own eyes. That was my first miracle.

with the virus that causes AIDS. The relationships that I have had with these special kids have been gifts in my
life. They have taught me so many things, but I have especially learned that great courage can be found in the
smallest of packages. Let me tell you about Tyler.
Tyler was born infected with HIV: his mother was also infected. From the very beginning of his life, he
was dependent on medications to enable him to survive. When he was five, he had a tube surgically inserted
in a vein in his chest. This tube was connected to a pump, which he carried in a small backpack on his back.
Medications were hooked up to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream.
At times, he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his breathing.
Tyler wasn"t willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease. It was not unusual
to find him playing and racing around his backyard, wearing his medicine - laden backpack and dragging his
tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon. All of us who knew Tyler marveled at his pure joy in being alive
and the energy it gave him. Tyler"s mom often teased him by telling him that he moved so fast she needed to
dress him in red. That way, when she peered through the window to check on him playing in the yard, she
could quickly spot him.
This dreaded disease eventually wore down even the likes of a little dynamo like Tyler. He grew quite ill and,
unfortunately, so did his HIV-infected mother. When it became apparent that he wasn"t going to survive, Tyler"s
mom talked to him about death. She comforted him by telling Tyler that she was dying too, and that she would
be with him soon in heaven.
A few days before his death, Tyler beckoned me over to his hospital bed and whispered, "I might die soon.
I"m not scared. When I die, please dress me in red. Mom promised she"s coming to heaven, too. I"ll be playing
when she gets there, and I want to make sure she can find me." | | 1. What is the boy Tyler"s attitude towards death? | | [ ] | A. optimistic.
B. pessimistic.
C. sorrowful.
D. fearful. | | 2. Tyler requested the writer to dress him in red when he died simply because _____. | | [ ] | A. red is a lucky color
B. red might help to cure him
C. his mom could spot him easily
D. he could find more mates by wearing red | | 3. Which of the following might serve as a possible title for this passage? | | [ ] | A. My unusual profession.
B. A caring mother.
C. Mother and son.
D. Dying in red. | | 4. The underlined word dynamo in the fourth paragraph here means _____. | | [ ] | A. a promising and helpful youth
B. an extremely energetic person
C. a rare and beautiful flower

could change back to the way they were.

and TV shows. We spent a lot more time together watching TV. That gave us a chance to communicate with
each other.
14 still, Dan showed much more interest in me than my own father. Dan was always around when I needed
advice 15 school or making friends. I began to warm up to Dan. The three of us 16 go out to eat and take
short trips. 17 , I discovered that I had the happy family again that I had always wanted. I now realize it was
