举一反三
I have a friend who had a stammer (口吃) in his childhood, but he dreamed of becoming a missionary(传教士). When he told his own desire to his friends and relatives, some of whom laughed at him, and some even held down his enthusiasm       .
"I must change it." said the boy angrily, “I believe I can speak very      , I will do!"
When it was possible, he would spend an hour       to chickens. He viewed the chickens as living persons,       himself to be the person in the speech.
"In the beginning, the chickens looked so      , then they watched me curiously, putting down the food in the mouths and listening to my words. It seemed as if they had been     by my powerful and effective language. Sometimes they seemed to be listening to me    . Gradually, the effect of this practice became more and more     and I had a better understanding of the exact     of my stammer, so I found the ability to speak more."
"You may not know that my father was always tyrannical(专横的). He     believed in the old saying: "Young man should be more knowledgeable, but should not    much." During the whole childhood,      I spoke or commented, he criticized me seriously, which    my shy personality. I used to worry about being     at, so I became a stammer. From then on, I kept    in front of everyone because they didn"t want to see my embarrassment. But later I found myself talking in front of chickens, stammers disappeared  , therefore I regained my   ."
Now, the previous boy is the best at speaking and one of the most     missionaries. You can hardly imagine he used to have a serious language    . So when you come across disadvantages, you should believe you can      them by yourself.

I         into my back right pocket to take the money to pay and noticed that there was no money there.  I started to get       .  I knew my purse was in the car and I was sure I had put the        in my back right pocket. I looked at the cashier with wet eyes and a       look not knowing what to do.  There were people behind me on the line. She told me to speak with the courtesy counter (爱心柜台).  I        and said, “Really? It"s        , no one would hand that in!”  But she        me to. “You never know…” she said.
I decided that there was no        in checking so I walked up to a woman behind the counter and said “I have to ask, did anyone        cash by any chance?” She asked “How much?” My face then       .  “$200 in the form of one hundred dollar bills.” I replied.  She said, “       , yes, someone did!” I was so       ! “Who? I want to thank her.”  She pointed to a young girl about 10 years old and said, “She did.”
I walked over to the mom and hugged her. She said, “It wasn"t me, it was my       ” .  I said “I know, I wanted to thank you both,       she found it ... it"s because of you that I got this back.” I was so happy. I was almost in tears. 
The next day at work, a person in another department        me tickets to the circus(马戏团).  He handed me 5 tickets. Almost        that young girl’s face popped (突然出现) in my head.  After work I went back to the supermarket and stopped at the courtesy counter and asked if she had any idea who that woman was. She smiled and said, “Yes, She is a friend of mine”.  Then I asked her to do me a favor and pass along these 5 tickets to her.
She told me that the family of the little girl who found my money were not rich so they would really        this.  She also said that they had 3 children, so five was the        number of tickets!

Watson entered Mr. Smith"s office. The boss was a hard man. He fired people who didn"t do well without giving them a second chance.
"Watson," said Mr. Smith, "this past year your department hasn"t earned money. We"re going to drop that department. It"s finished. I’m sorry, —but you"ll have to go." "But, sir — if I just had a little more time. For the moment I need the job to keep my son at Riverside School."
"What"s that!" said the boss. "Riverside! I didn"t know you had a boy there. That"s an expensive school for a man with your salary."
"I know, sir. But he likes it there so much! He"s a star athlete and the best boxer in the school. The boys call him Champ there."
The boss sat perfectly still for a long time — a faraway (恍惚的) look in his eyes. Then, suddenly, he said, "We"ve got to close your department, Watson. But you"ll take over a new job in another department. It means longer hours—maybe more pay. Now get out. You"re here for life."
Watson got out, with surprise on his face. Then the boss took a letter from the top drawer of his desk. It was Herbie"s last letter from Riverside School —written a few days before he died. He had read it over and over again with sick pain. The letter read:
I can’t say the boys here are any nicer to me than the others were. I guess it"s the same everywhere when you"re a cripple (跛脚的人). But don"t worry about me, Dad. They"ve got a good chemistry department here. And there’s one boy here who is really great. He"s a track star and boxing champ (冠军) and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ. He made them stop throwing my books around. And he knocked a boy down who hit me. He is the best friend I ever had. Dad, when I grow up, 1 want to do something for Champ. Something big — that he won’ t even know about.
Your son,
Herbie

It is Sunday and lunch has, as usual, come to a hurried end.My wife and I are still sitting at the table.My wife likes to be        in the life of her child, but I sometimes fear she is in too deep.She has        the morning on an online student forum, asking questions about UCAS        Dick.
“A lot of people haven’t had any offers yet,” she says. “I said I already had one.”
“Wait,” Dick says. “Are you        to be me?”
“No, I have my own login details now,” she says.
“How do you know he isn’t his own mother pretending to be him?” Dick says.
Earlier, when we all sat down to lunch, Dick, who had been to parties the        evening, came back.
“Who were there?” my wife asks Dick. “What was it like?”
“It was OK.” he says.
“Not good enough,” she says. “What was the worst thing        happened?” My wife’s continued question        a deepening, boring silence. I start to eat faster. There is a long, highly        pause in the conversation.
“So,” she says       , “was it a kissing party?”
“Oh my God!” shouts Dick,        his fork. “What is wrong with you? Why are you like this?”
Surrounded by further scolds, lunch comes to a hurried end. Dick finds himself        with clearing up.       , the running of water and the sound of washing plates are the only sounds in the room.
      at any time you’re prepared to apologize for being rude,” she says, “you can go and finish watching the football.”
“Are you joking?” he shouts. “No way! Why        I apologize to you?”
He pauses to look into the bottom of a pan, and a smile        across his face. “What I mean is, I’m really very sorry,” he says, dropping the pan into the sink and running from the room. “Bye!”
“You don’t have to worry,” my wife says. “In a       ’s time, you’ll be 18 and I won’t be able to do this to you any more.”
“Really?” he says.
“You’ll be a(n)       ,” she says.
The boy stops to consider the blue print that after a        set seven days from then on, his parents will be        to stop ruining his life. He looks both doubtful and a little alarmed.
I approaches my wife,whispering to her. “Dear, I agree with you—understanding and trust may        be a good way to communicate with our teen children.”

Recently I came in contact with the true meaning of love. That would have been, Kane, a boy. Kane was the two-year-old son of Jolene, my new neighbor.
At a glance Kane was a sight. He’d been born with hard sticks for legs. And on that morning I witnessed the effect that Kane’s physical shortcomings had on his family. But I also witnessed much more than that.
I saw an extraordinary family that embraced this special child. A family that wouldn’t allow Kane to know he was different. Jolene had constructed a small cart just a few inches off the floor for his son to get around. Using his hands to move about, Kane moved the cart to “go to” any place just as everyone else was able to do. Kane worked that little cart like a master. Kane was a vital focus of the entire family. He was more than just a member of the family; he was the soul. This child was the driver, the motivator, and the founder of much of the interaction.
Much later in my life, I came to realize that God had sent this child to help some of us who just weren’t getting what love was all about. Even with my limited capacity for understanding at the time that Kane was a highly developed spirit with great wisdom.
Kane demanded attention, but not because of his mobility challenges or other apparent shortcomings. In his mind, he had no challenges or shortcomings. The truth is that he received attention because he was alive and real and had so much to offer.
Kane was and still is a lot of warm and powerful energy sent to us all, so we might learn that love surpasses all things. Kane, a fragile yet lovely baby, was here to teach us all an important lesson. And at the age of two he did just that.
小题1:How did the author think of Kane’s family members?
A.They were strange because they locked Kane at home.
B.It was respectable for them to start their own business.
C.It was ridiculous for them to make a cart for Kane.
D.They were greatly brave to face all the difficulties.
小题2:How did Kane “get to” everywhere he wanted to go?
A.By moving his cart with his own hands.
B.By asking his father to lead him ahead with a stick.
C.By asking his grandparents to push hin everywhere.
D.His parents specially employed a babysitter for him.
小题3:According to the author, God made Kane with disability to help _______.
A.his parents get to know their responsibility
B.his family members know the importance of union
C.people especially the healthy realize what love really means
D.people especially the disabled realize their inner power
小题4:Kane needed attention because he wanted to show ________.
A.he can challenge his difficulty in moving
B.he had challenges or shortcomings in his life
C.he himself needed to be looked after by others
D.he had the power to prove he was capable too
小题5:What can we learn from Kane’s story?
A.Love me, love my dog.
B.Love is above all things.
C.Many hands make light work.
D.Pure gold fears no fire.
