完形填空     I had a cigarette one morning as I walked along the wooded path toward my house deep in the forest.
     I know smoking is bad for me, and     1  . I had tried to kick the habit, but   2  . Not even when my
aunt Bernie got lung cancer. How many times had she begged me to give   _3_ up? After she died, I
made up my mind to stop, and did so, but     4    I started up again.
     The house had been one of Aunt Bernie"s favorite places to stay. Lately, I had earned some     5   
  income by renting it out. New renters were     6    to arrive that afternoon.
     The house has no electricity, so I had to    7      there was enough propane (丙烷) in the tank to 
    8     the fridge and the stove (火炉). Seeing the house in the distance through the trees, I thought
about     9  . I could still hear her   10   telling me, "Give up smoking; it will     11   you."
     As I was     12     the house, the voice grew stronger,   13     my aunt were standing right beside me.
Finally, I couldn"t    14     it any longer. I smothered (弄熄) it. "Fine, Auntie, I   15  . See?"
     I continued down the path,     16     the urge to light up again.  Reaching the house,  I opened the
door. Whoa!  I stepped back. The   17       was strong. Propane gases! I ran around to the back and
found the problem. The previous   18   had forgotten to turn off the propane tank before they left. The
house had been     19    up with gas for a week!
     If I had still been smoking that cigarette... I thought now, 20  . My aunt Bernie was right. Smoking
can kill me. The next day I started a quitsmoking program, and I haven"t lit up since.

     Much as Robby tried, he lacked the sense of tone and basic rhythm (节奏). But he dutifully reviewed
his lessons. Over the months he tried and tried, and often repeated to me "My mom"s going to hear me
play some day."
    But he seemed hopeless, with no born ability. A real bad advertisement for my teaching! I was so
happy when one day he stopped coming.
    Several weeks later my students were to have a recital (演奏会). To my surprise, Robby came, asking
to play in the recital.
     "But, it is for current pupils; you dropped."
     "My mom was sick. But I have been practicing. I"ve just got to play!"
    I didn"t know what led me to agree, maybe...
    The recital came. I__put__Robby__up__last__to__play__before__my__"curtain__closer", by which,
I could save the recital if...
    The recital went on well.  Robby came up on stage, clothes wrinkled and his hair looked like he"d run
an eggbeater through it. "How could his mom...?"
     Robby pulled out the piano bench and began. It was Mozart"s work! I was not prepared for what I
heard next. Like in a dream, I was then woken up by the wild applause-everybody was on their feet!
     "I"ve never heard you play like that, Robby! How"d you do it?"
    Through the microphone Robby explained: "Well, Miss Hondorf, remember I told you my mom was
sick? Actually she had cancer and died this morning. She was born deaf, and tonight was the first time
she ever heard me play. I wanted to make it special."
     My eyes were wet. He was not a student of mine, but a teacher!

1. We can infer from the underlined sentence that the writer ________.
A. was fully confident that Robby would perform well in the recital
B. thought that Robby would make the recital special
C. thought that Robby wouldn"t play in the recital
D. had no confidence in Robby at all in the recital

2. What made the boy succeed in the recital?
A. Love for his mother.    
B. Musical talent.
C. The writer"s help.      
D. Regular practice.

3. What made the writer think that Robby was her teacher, not a student?
A. That he played better than her in the recital.
B. That he loved his mother more than she did.
C. That he never gave up.
D. That the audience gave him more applause than her.

4. What is the highlight of the recital?
A  The writer"s performance.
B. Robby"s performance.
C. Robby and his mom"s story.
D. The audience"s applause.

     I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout(付款台) earlier today. All of the checkouts were

But then I    8  back. Standing beside the woman was a five-year-old girl,    9  her granddaughter. The

I couldn"t   11  it. I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt,    12  a space. "After you,"

granny. I"d seen that I could interrupt that complaining, and put a smile and some   18  into the middle of
it.

a few    20   , I wanted to leave that little soul with just a glimpse of another way

     A girl became a volunteer in the activities of Deathbed Care, which meant visiting and taking care of
a patient suffering from an incurable disease with days numbered.
    The girl was assigned to look after an old man suffering from cancer whose children lived abroad.
Their living conditions were not satisfactory while the old man had a lot of savings. She was expected to
comfort him and keep up his spirits.
     Every Saturday the girl came on time to keep him company, telling him stories.  When he was having
an intravenous drip (静脉滴注), she would help massage his arms. The doctor found the patient much
improved mentally. The old man began to involve himself actively in the medical treatment and he seldom
shouted at others.
     But something that happened made the doctor uneasy and puzzled. Each time the girl left, the old
man would give her some money. The doctor did nothing to interfere (干涉), unwilling to offend the old
man.  A month later the old man showed evident signs of decline after suffering coma (昏迷) a few times.
     When rescued from the latest coma, the old man told the doctor his last wish, "I have deep sympathy
for the girl. Will you be kind enough to help her finish her studies?"    
     But the doctor knew that her family was welloff and she had no difficulty pursuing her studies.  
Sometimes she even came to the hospital in her father"s car.
     When the girl came at the weekend after the death of the old man, the doctor told her the bad news.
She was very sad and burst into tears. Then she handed  $ 500 to the doctor, saying, "The old man had
all along thought I came to do the job because of poverty. He gave me money so that I could continue
my schooling." Now he got the answer to the puzzle. In the last period of his life, the old man found it a
real pleasure to be able to help a girl badly in need.
1. If you"re a volunteer in the activities of Deathbed Care, what kind of people do you have to attend to?
A. The patients in need of help.
B. The people suffering from cancer.
C. The patients without many days left.
D. The people suffering from diseases.
2. What can we infer about the old man?
A. He had a lot of savings.
B. He was suffering from cancer.
C. He often lost his temper before meeting the girl.
D. He asked the doctor to help the girl finish her study.
3. What can we know from the passage?
A. The doctor told the old man the truth.
B. The old man"s children were wealthy.
C. The girl"s father encouraged her to accept the money.
D. The girl didn"t accompany the old man when he died.
4. What is the real reason resulting in the old man"s mental improvement?
A. The girl"s comfort and care.
B. The pleasure of being helpful to people in need.
C. People"s understanding.
D. His children"s progress.
