father and his daughter, and put the lid on the cup with a clink. Obviously thinking of something, he hurried
into the inner room, leaving the thermos (热水瓶) on the table. His two guests heard a chest of drawers
opening and rustling.
They remained sitting in the sitting room, the ten-year-old daughter looking at the flowers outside the
window, the father just about to take his cup, when the crash came, right there in the sitting room. Something
was hopelessly broken.
It was the thermos, which had fallen to the floor. The girls looked over her shoulder suddenly, shocked,
staring. It was mysterious; neither of them had touched it, not even a little bit. True, it hadn"t stood steadily
when their host placed it on the table, but it hadn"t fallen then.
The crash of the thermos caused the host, with a box of sugar cubes in his hand, to rush back from the
inner room. He looked foolishly at the steaming floor and blurted out. "It doesn"t matter! It doesn"t matter!"
The father started to say something. Then he said in a low voice, "Sorry I touched it and it fell."
"It doesn"t matter," the host said.
Later, when they left the house,the daughter said, "Daddy, did you touch it?"
"No. But it stood so close to me."
"But you didn"t touch it. I saw your reflection in the window. You were sitting perfectly still."
The father laughed. "Then how would you explain the cause of its fall?"
"The thermos fell by itself. The floor is uneven. It wasn"t steady when Mr. Li put it there. Daddy, why
did you say that?"
"That won"t do,girl. It sounds more acceptable when I say I knocked it down. There are things which
people accept less true it sounds." The daughter was lost in silence for a while. Then she said, "Can you
explain it only this way?"
"Only this way." her father said.
B. You can"t always make people believe the truth.
C. If you try to defend yourself,people will believe you.
D. People never believe others.
B. was sorry that he hadn"t told the host the truth

The D-word, it"s most people"s worst fear, but, in a bittersweet way, it was my greatest joy. In divorce, you gain something and you 1 something. I"m thirteen years old, and I know what it 2 like when parents split up, because mine did last fall. My parents had been 3 for years. When my father started cheating my mom things went downhill, I 4 they would divorce instantly. I tried to picture my life after my parents 5 up-living at my mom"s house during the week, and my father"s house on the weekend. But my mom decided to be the bigger person and try to 6 it out, so that my siblings and I would know 7 it was like to have a family. Things didn"t get better, 8 . I would always strain to hear the quiet 9 they didn"t want me to hear. They weren"t getting along and they weren"t happy, My father has never really been there for me. He was there physically but not emotionally. He yelled a lot and never really showed any 10 in going to my piano recitals or watching my dance performances, 11 we asked him to do and he had another 12 -a lie. We just ignored it and went on with our lives as if nothing was the matter. Then last summer, there was real 13 in paradise. My siblings and I want out to Los Angeles to pursue acting and while we were out there, my father 14 my mom again, and this time my brother, sister, and I all found out. We decided to stay in L.A and leave my father in Florida. Our 15 resulted in divorce. We didn"t know if we were making the right 16 or not. My mom went back and forth. She wanted what was best for her children. She asked me if I thought we should go back to Florida or stay in Los Angeles, I replied mom "There is nothing in Florida for us any more. Out here in L.A, we have so many 17 , that can come true. We shouldn"t let him abuse us any more." Finally, we are free. The 18 was the best thing that had ever happened to me and the rest of my family. I now know that taking chances is the best thing to do. I accept that 19 doesn"t always. If, in your heart, you can feel something that is not right, then follow your heart. In the end it"s going to be your only true guide, to have and to hold, for richer or poorer, your heart will never 20 you down. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
