A
I was in a terrible mood. Two of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn’t invited me. I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in. “Want to go for a ride, today, Beck? It’s a beautiful day.”
“No! Leave me alone!” Those were the last words I said to him that morning.
My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later. I forgot to be mad at them and when I came home to find a note on the table. My mother put it where I would be sure to see it. “Dad has had an accident. Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital”.
When I reached the hospital, my mother came out and told me my father’s injuries were extensive. “Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911, thank God! If he had moved Daddy, there’s no telling what might have happened. A broken rib(肋骨)might have pierced(穿透)a lung...”
My mother may have said more, but I didn’t hear. I didn’t hear anything except those terrible words: Leave me alone. My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more. How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day?
It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation. I held his hand gently, afraid of hurting him.
“Daddy… I am so sorry…”
“It’s okay, sweetheart. I’ll be okay. ”
“No,” I said, “I mean about what I said to you that day. You know, that morning?”
My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly. He looked at me and said. “Sweetheart, I don’t remember anything about that day, not before, during or after the accident. I remember kissing you goodnight the night before, though. ”He managed a weak smile.
My English teacher once told me that words have immeasurable power. They can hurt or they can heal. And we all have the power to choose our words. I intend to do that very carefully from now on.

We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects (缺陷) that can never be changed. “I’m impatient.” “I’m always behind.” “I always put things   36 !” You’ve surely heard them. Maybe you’ve used them to describe   37 .
These comments may come from stories about us that have been   38  for years—often from   39  childhood. These stories may have no   40  in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, “Marshall, you have no mechanical (操作机械的) skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life.” How did these expectations   41  my development? I was never   42  to work on cars or be around   43 . When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!
Six years later,   44 , I was at California University, working on my doctor’s degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do. On the positive side, I   45   down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking.” On the   46  side, I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills.”
Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life   47  and told him about my   48  performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “  49  is it that you can solve   50  mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”
Suddenly I realized that I didn’t   51  from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to   52 . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been   53  my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true.   54  , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost   55  we choose.

It was a cold winter’s night when I stopped for gas on my way home from work. I was tired and had a slight   36 .
I worked in a   37  doctor’s office and this was one of those days when the unexpected happened, making the schedule run   38  than usual.

I was heading inside to   42  for my gas when I noticed an older couple at the counter. I heard them asking for   43  to the local hospital. It was the same hospital that I had just   44  a few minutes ago.
The young man at the counter was trying to be   45  in explaining how to get there, with two other people making   46 . One of them was   47  trying to give them a whole different route back. It was then that I walked over to the couple and said, “Would you like to follow me to the   48 ?”
A look of   49  crossed the woman’s face.
“I’m going right by there,” I said, which wasn’t a(an)   50  since I had just made up my mind to do   51  that.
I got in my car and began the journey back. I was trying to watch to be sure they were right   52  me. It took only fifteen minutes to get there as rush hour traffic was beginning to   53 . I felt better than I had all day and my headache was nearly gone.
Later, as I arrived home, my husband   54 , “So you aren’t ever late any more.”
I said, “Sometimes it’s   55  to be late.”

Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg, a  36 of about eighty miles. It was late and I was in a hurry. However, if anyone asked me how fast I was  37 ,I’d say I was not over-speeding. Several times I got  38 behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road, and I was holding my fists tightly with  39 .
At one point along an open highway, I  40 a crossroad with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I  41 the light, it turned red and I braked to a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of headlights, but there I sat, waiting for the light to  42 , the only human being for at least a mile in any  43 .
I started  44 why I refused to run the light. I was not afraid of being  45 , because there was obviously no policeman around, and there certainly would have been no  46 in going through it.
Much later that night, after I  47 a group of my friends in Lewisburg and climbed into bed near midnight, the question of why I’d stopped for that light  48 me, I think I stopped because it’s part of a contract(合同) we all have with each other. It’s not only the  49 , but it’s an arrangement we have, and we trust each other to  50 it: we don’t go through red lights. Like most of us, I’m more likely to be  51 from doing something bad by the social convention that  52 it than by any law against it.
It’s amazing that we ever  53 each other to do the right thing, isn’t it? And we do, too, Trust is our  54 preference.
I was so  55 of myself for stopping for the red light that night.

When a dirty and untidy orange cat showed up in the prison yard,I was one of the first to go out there and pet it.I hadn’t touched a cat or a dog in over 20 years.I spent at least 20 minutes,knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolled around,relaxed.What he was expressing outwardly, I was feeling inwardly.It was an amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching a life or another creature with something as simple as my care.
Over the next few days,there were other prisoners responding to the cat.Every yard period,a group of prisoners gathered there.They stood around talking and taking turns petting the cat.These were guys you wouldn’t usually find talking to each other.Several times I saw an officer in the group,not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners.Bowls of milk and water appeared along with bread, wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keep the birds from getting it.
The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape.People said that the cat came to the right place.He"s getting treated like a king.This was true.but as I watched I was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us.There was a lot of talk about what"s wrong with prisons in America.We need more programs.We need more psychologists or treatment of various kinds.Some may even talk about making prisons more kind.But I think what we really need is a chance to practise our own kindness.Not receive it,but give it.After more than two decades here,I know kindness is not a value that"s encouraged.It"s often seen as a weakness.
Instead,the culture encourages keeping your head down,minding your own business,and never letting yourself be weak.
The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here.By simply saying,”I need some help here”,he did something important for us.He needed us.And we needed to be needed.I believe we all do.
小题1:From the passage,we can learn that the author was           
A.an animal protectorB.the cat ownerC.a prison officer D.a prisoner
小题2:Which of the following statements is true?
A.The cat was dirty because it was kept in prison.
B.The officer in the prison enjoyed petting the cat.
C.The prisoners prepared food for both the cat and birds.
D.The author realized the importance of practising kindness.
小题3:We can infer from the third paragraph that              
A.showing love to others can make prisoners strong
B.the American prison culture will be improved
C.the author is not content with the prison culture
D.caring for others is encouraged in American prisons
小题4:What is the best title for the passage?
A.Caring Makes Us Human.B.Prison Culture is Important.
C.Animals Need Care.D.Everyone Needs to be Cared for.
小题5:In Paragraph 2,the author mentioned that “Several times I saw an officer in the group,not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners.”to              
A.show us the officer and prisoners get along well with each other
B.show us the American prison culture does need improvement
C.show us the officer and prisoners all like cat

I always felt sorry for people in wheelchairs.Some people,old and weak,cannot 36      by themselves.Others seem perfectly healthy, 37 in business suits,and wheel themselves around with strong determination.But whenever I saw someone in a wheelchair,I only saw a 38 ,not a person.
Then I fainted(晕倒)at Euro Disney 39 low blood pressure.This was the first time I had ever fainted,and my parents said that I must 40 for a while after First Aid.I agreed to take it easy,but 41 I stepped toward the door,I saw my dad pushing a (n) 42 in my direction!Feeling the colour burn my cheeks,I asked him to wheel that thing right back to 43 he found it.
I could not believe this was happening to me.Wheelchairs were 44 for other people but not for me.As my father wheeled me out into the main street,people 45 began to treat me differently.
Little kids ran in front of me, 46 my father to stop the wheelchair suddenly. 47     set in as I was thrown back and forth.“Stupid kids—they have perfectly good 48 .Why can’t they watch where they’re going?”I thought.People 49 down at me,pity in their eyes.Then they would look away,maybe because they thought the 50 they forgot me,the better.
“I am just like you!”I wanted to scream.“The only 51 is that you’ve got legs,and I have wheels.”
People in wheelchairs are not 52 .They can see every look and hear each word.Looking out at the faces,I finally understood: I was once just like them.I 53 people in wheelchairs exactly the way they did not 54 to be treated.I realized it is some of us with two healthy legs who are 55 disabled.
