举一反三

I met Jane Black in university, and soon we became friends.The first time I went to her home I found her family quite different from my own.
In my family, it was always important to place   1 when anything bad happened.
"Who did this? "my mother would scream about a dirty kitchen.
" This is all your  2 , Katharine, " my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher  3 .
From the time we were little, my sister, brothers and I told on each other.We set a place for blame at the dinner table.
,the Whites didn"t worry about who had done what.They picked up the pieces and with their lives.The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died.
In July, the White sisters and I decided to take a car  6 from their home in Florida to New York.The two older sisters, Sarah and Jane, were college students, and the youngest, Amy, had recently  7 sixteen.Proud of having a new driver" s license, Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip.She  8 her license to everyone she met.
The big sisters  9 the driving of Sarah" s new car during the first part of the trip, but when they reached _10_ crowded areas, they let Amy  11 .Somewhere in South Carolina, we pulled off the highway to eat.After lunch, Amy got behind the wheel.She came to a crossroads with a stop sign.Whether she was nervous or just didn"t see the sign no one would  12 know, but Amy continued into the crossroads without stopping.The driver of a large truck, unable to stop in time, ran into our car.
Jane was killed immediately.I was only  13 injured.The most difficult thing that I’ve ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died.Painful __14_ it was for me to lose a good friend, I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child.
When Mr.and Mrs.White arrived at the hospital, they found their two daughters sharing a room.Sarah had a few cuts on the head and Amy" s leg was broken.They hugged us all and cried tears of   15 and of joy at seeing their daughters.They  16 away the girls" tears and made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches (拐仗).
To both of their daughters, and especially to Amy, over and over they simply said, "We" re so glad that you" re alive."
I was  17 .No blame.No accusations.
Later, I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign.
Mrs. White said, "Jane" s gone, and we miss her  18 .Nothing we say or do will ever bring her back.But Amy has her whole life ahead of her.How can she _19____ a full and happy life if she feels we blame her for her sister" s death?"
They were right.Amy graduated from the University of California and got married several years ago.She works   20  a teacher of learning-disabled students.She" s also a mother of two little girls of her own, the oldest named Jane.

I learned about life from an ant farm.When I was seven years old, my family created one.First, we put clean sand in a thin glass box, and then we waited for the live ants to arrive.Shortly after the chilly ants were dropped into the glass structure, they got to work making tunnels.I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to do.After hours of staring, I realized that the ants had assigned jobs.With my mom " s help, I kept a diary of what happened each day and named the ants.
One day a tragedy struck the ant farm.The pages of the diary, still wrinkled where tear drops fell, indicate the depth of the tragedy."I had put my face so close to the structure that I accidentally tipped it over, caving in all the tunnels.Although the ants survived their earthquake, one by one they began to die.I was terrified as I watched them give up their tunnel-building to carry the bodies to a comer of the farm.My mother reported that the ants were dying of "frustration." They simply could not stand the reality that their tunnels had been destroyed.
Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm.Mom had hoped it would teach me about the natural world, but it taught me much more.Over the years, I came to realize the ants were a study in the benefits of teamwork.Working together, they were able to create an amazing world for themselves.I also learned that they should be admired for their hard work.Day in and day out, each labored at their task.The ant farm showed that teamwork and perseverance are indeed two key ingredients to success.But there was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently: Adversity (不幸、灾祸) is a natural part of life,and must be accepted.Unlike the ants, humans cannot give up when they face disappointment.Unlike the ants, we have to realize that if a tunnel caves in, we just have to build another.Giving up, I say, is not a choice.
小题1:The family created an ant farm in a glass box because it was easy _____.
A.for the ants to live inB.to get sun light in
C.to keep the sand cleanD.for the boy to observe
小题2:What made the pages of the diary wrinkled?

小题3:What did the writer finally realize?
A.Perseverance is the only way to success.

C.Immediately after the tragedy.
D.Many years after the tragedy
