     Once upon a time, there was a little weasel (鼬鼠). His name was Horace. Unlike all the other
weasels, Horace was very bookish.
     He had a copy of The Little Prince that he had found out behind a chicken house. The third chapter
of the book was missing and the back cover was broken, but it was the only book he had, and he loved
it. While all the other weasels spent their time playing, Horace would read instead. This made the other
weasels surprised, but they let it go by.
     Then, one day, the Earth was invaded (入侵) by space aliens. These aliens were a group of giant
librarians. Because they were librarians, they had of course done their research before they began their
invasion.     
     Meanwhile, the librarians went out to make contact with the species with whom they felt the most
affinity (密切关系). They had hoped that they could find the great works of weasel literature, but they
found that this was not so. The giant weasel librarian aliens were very disappointed. "Is there no weasel
at all who loves books as we do?" (Naturally, they had learned to speak the weasel language.) "No,"
said the weasels.
     At last, they came to the town where Horace lived. Here the weasels said "Yes!" They found Horace
and placed him in their libraries, where at last he got a complete edition of The Little Prince. He read it
every day for the rest of his life.1. From the text we can infer that        .A. Horace had a copy of The Little Prince

     John was waiting for the girl whose heart he knew, but whose face he didn"t. Thirteen months
ago, in a Florida library he took a book off the shelf and took great interest in the notes in the
margin(页边空白). The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind.
In front of the book, he discovered the previous owner"s name, Miss Hollis Maynell. With time
and effort he located her address. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to
correspond.
    During the following years the two grew to know each other through the mail. John requested
a photograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really cared, it wouldn"t matter what she looked
like. Later they scheduled their first meeting-7:00 pm at Grand Central Station in New York.
   "You"ll recognize me, " she wrote, "by the red rose I"ll be wearing on my lapel." So at 7:00 he
was in the station looking for the girl with the red rose.

Almost uncontrollably he made one step closer to her, and just at this moment he saw Hollis
Maynell-a woman well past 40. The girl was walking quickly away. He felt as though he split(裂开)
in two, so keen was his desire to follow the girl, and yet so deep was his longing for the woman
whose spirit had truly accompanied him and upheld his own.

be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me; may I take you to dinner?"
   The woman smiled, "I don"t know what this is about, son," she answered, "but the young lady
in the green suit begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out
