One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around. One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up (咬破) one of my Dad"s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, "Bad girl," she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes. Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she"d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we"d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. He never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone. Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age.

I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast. We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide rang of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked, "May I get you something?" "A coffee would be nice." Then I bought him a cup of coffee, We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked, "How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?" "Who?" "The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs." I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world"s richest and most powerful men! My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life.

It was cause and effect: She believed I had opinions, so I began to 6 them. She trusted me to complete things, so I completed them perfectly. She loved how 7 I was, so I began to show up to paint more and more. She believed in me, so I began to believe in myself. Mrs. Neidl"s 8 that year was, "Try it. We can always paint over it 9 !" I began to take 10 . I had been so afraid of failing but suddenly there was no failing-only things to be 11 upon. I learned to dip my brush into the paint and 12 create something.

No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. "We"re moving house." "No space for her any more with the baby coming." "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present." People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen. I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner"s. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire. That"s why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn"t hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could. By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn"t know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared." "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her. I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I"ve got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I"ve learnt a good lesson: not to judge people. | 1. How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house? | [ ] | A. Shocked. B. Sympathetic. C. Annoyed. D. Upset. | 2. In her first few days at the author"s house, Goldie _____. | [ ] | A. felt worried B. was angry C. ate a little D. sat by the fire | 3. Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she _____. | [ ] | A. saw her puppies B. heard familiar barkings C. wanted to leave the author D. found her way to her old home | 4. The passage is organized in order of _____. | [ ] | A. time B. effectiveness C. importance D. complexity |
