完形填空。     Two friends and I moved into a house off campus when I was a junior at Iowa State University. We were
all a bit   1   of our landlord, a rough middle-aged man. He gave us a lecture about paying the   2   on time and
maintaining the house and appliances.
     During the fall semester, my housemates and I threw a   3 . We sent invitations to many friends and told
everyone to come to our house on Friday night. We   4   a large crowd and everyone had a great   5 . The
last guests left in the wee (凌晨一两点) hours of the morning.
     Exhausted, we decided to sleep in and clean the house and yard the next morning. Well, you   6   it! We
were awakened about 7:00 a.m. by our   7 , who was knocking on the door. Sleepily, we let him in,   8   to
incur his wrath (招致他的怒气). Instead, he picked up a party invitation that had been   9 on the sidewalk
and asked, "Why didn"t you girls invite me?" He came into the house,  10  a minor repair, and spent a few
minutes helping us pick up trash from the yard. We weren"t quite sure what use to make of our unexpected
luck, but we were thrilled that our landlord had been so  11 .
    A few months later, I made a mathematical error while balancing my checkbook and my bank soon
informed me that I had bounced (跳过) a  12 . I was ashamed when I discovered that it was my rent check
and  13  I had to let my landlord know. I figured that he  14  my housemates and I as irresponsible after the
party incident and this would  15  him right. I was certain that he would drive me away.  16 , I gathered the
courage to call him and explained what had happened. He said, "I have a daughter about your age, and the
same thing happened to her  17  . Would you like to wait until next month and send a  18  payment then?"
     I"ve never forgotten our landlord"s kindness and understanding. He also taught me an important lesson
about not judging a book by its  19 . I"m proud to say that I have not bounced a check  20  (though I have
thrown a few more parties)!

     It was 3:00 a.m. Rain beat against the windows. Tamsen Bell"s cellphone began to ring so she jumped
out of bed quickly for she knew that someone was in trouble, and it was up to her and the other members
of the Marin Search and Rescue Team to help. The team has a motto: "Any time, any place, any weather."
Bell, 18, joined the search-and-rescue team when she was 14 years old, the youngest age at which a person
can join."I remember the first search I ever went on," Bell says. "I was very nervous." Thanks to the strict
training program, Bell now is no longer nervous and a lot more confident.
     When Bell was 16 years old, she took a lead role in a tough search-and-rescue action that she says
changed her life. While hiking, a 60-year-old woman fell off a cliff and landed on a mountain ledge (岩石架).
Bell slid down in a seated position to get to where the injured woman lay. The situation was very dangerous
and she had to make a quick decision which could have endangered the woman"s life. Bell helped to lift the
woman onto a litter (担架), and her teammates then pulled the litter up the mountain using ropes. The rescue
took more than eight hours, the longest in the history of the team.
     Afterwards, Bell said she realized that she could keep cool in stressful situations. The experience inspired
her to devote her life to helping others. She remains a search-and-rescue member and plans to study nursing
in college.
    "Search-and-rescue work may be tough, but it is rewarding. The best part is the support, and the common
feeling that everyone on the team wants to make people"s lives better." Said Bell.

A. She learnt to make quick decisions when in danger.
B. She learnt to transport the injured to safety through a litter.
C. The experience inspired her to devote herself to helping others.
D. The experience made her realize that she could calm down even in danger.

3. Which of the following is TURE about Bell"s tough task?

[ ]

A. It was the toughest task in the history of the team.
B. Bell slid down the cliff seated in a litter.
C. It"s the first task Bell took part in after the training program.
D. Bell played a very important role in the action.

4. The passage is mainly about _____.

       Mom is usually home on Sunday but this week she was going to a big golf game and I was all alone in
the house. I was mad at Mom for divorcing Dad.
      I kept looking at the telephone until I couldn"t stand it any longer. I picked up the receiver and dialed Dad"s
number over in Bakersfield. I even remembered to dial 1 first because it was long distance."You promised to
phone me this week but you didn"t," I said, feeling I had to talk to him.
      "Take it easy, kid," he said. "I just didn"t get around to it. I was going to call this evening. The week isn"t
over yet."
     I thought about that.
      "Something on your mind?" he asked.
      "I hoped you would call, so I waited and waited." Then I was sorry I said it.
      "There was heavy snow in the morning," he said, "I had to chain up on highway 80 and lost time."
      I know putting chains on eight big wheels in the snow is no fun. I felt a little better, as long as we were
talking. "How is Bandit?" I asked.
      There was a funny silence. For a minute I thought the line was dead. Then I knew something must have
happened to my dog.
     "Well, kid", he began. "My name is Leigh!" I almost yelled. "I"m not just some kid you met on the street!"
      "Keep your shirt on, Leigh," he said. "When I had to stop along with some other truckers to put on chains,
I left Bandit out of the cab, I thought he would get back … I have sent out a call to CB radio, but I didn"t get
an answer yet." I was about to say I understood when there came the bad part, the really bad part. I heard a
boy"s voice say, "Hey, Bill, Mom wants to know when we"re going out to get the pizza?"

1. From the story we know that ______.

[ ]

A. Leigh"s dad never had a rest on Sundays

D. Leigh"s mother often went to golf games

      It used to be our custom to take handmade baskets to friends on May Day. We would   1   baskets on a
doorstep, knock on the door, and then run away as fast as our legs could   2 us. It was delightful to peer
(窥视) around a bush and watch our friends open their   3   and pick up the colorful gift,   4   who had left
it out for them.
      I clearly   5 the May Day of the year when I turned ten. That year I was faced with a (an)   6   involving
one of my dearest friends, Pam. We had studied and   7   together nearly every day, but things   8   after a
new family had moved into our small town. Pam was spending more and more time at their house and I felt
   9 and left out.
     When my mother asked me  10  I was going to take a May Day basket to Pam"s house, I responded 11 ,
"Absolutely not! I hate Pam." I began to cry.
      Mom wiped away my  12  and told me that things and people change. She explained that one of the
greatest things friends can do is to give each other a  13  to grow, to change and to develop, and that it"s  14
for one"s friends to spend time with other people.
      I  15  decided to give Pam a basket as a sign of forgiveness, and asked my sister to help me do it. As we
watched from our  16  place, Pam picked up the basket and said loudly enough for us to hear, "Thank you,
Susie, I hoped you wouldn"t  17  me!"
      That day, I made a  18  that changed my life: I decided to hold my friends tightly in my heart, but  19  in
my expectations of them, allowing them  20  to grow and to change-with or without me.
