“ Dad, dad!” I cried. “This wine is too old to drink.”
“ Son, hold on,” he said.
“ No, you can’t drink this tonight! This bottle of wine was made 10 years ago.”
“ Wait, let me tell you…”
“ Would you like me to throw it away from you?” I asked.
“ Son, wait a second,” he said. “Son, some wines get better over time. The longer you wait to drink it, the better it will be. Although this may seem strange, it is true.”
When I was young, I didn’t have any understanding of what this meant, but now, this would have been very helpful to remember as I went through my teenage years.
In our society, we forget this simple rule: The longer you want for certain things, the better they will be. But we want the best job as quickly as possible; we want to graduate from college in as few years as possible; we even speed through our homework just to chat with friends. When we do this, we lose something of great importance.
We all want to get to the next step so quickly that perhaps we don’t get ready enough to get there. This has a negative effect on our society. When trying to go to the right college, we will do anything to get in and when we rush through our class-work, we may not study enough for the test, and end up failing. We need to be ready for whatever comes, ready for the unexpected. Wine gets better over time, so do the things in our paths of life.
小题1:Why did the author tell his father not to drink the bottle of wine?
| A．Because it smelt terrible. |
| B．Because it was mixed with something else. |
| C．Because his father drank too much that night. |
| D．Because it had been kept for years. |
| A．made the author puzzled when he was a little child. |
| B．was too simple a rule to be meaningful to the author. |
| C．threw the author into deep thought then. |
| D．was an excuse to drink the wine. |
| A．do it better | B．save much time |
| C．graduate from college more quickly | D．miss something useful to us in life |
| A．Well begun is half done. | B．More haste（匆忙）, less speed. |
| C．Failure is the mother of success. | D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. |

When we finished, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a homeless man standing in front of the building. His clothes were worn and it looked as if he didn’t have any money. It was cold and I was sure he wanted something to drink. However, it was not this that moved(感动) me.
A dog was also walking up to the front of the building. Being a dog lover, I noticed that the dog was a mother and that she had just had some puppies(小狗). She was hungry and weak and I felt so bad for her. I knew if she didn’t eat soon, she and her puppies would not live on.
People walking by didn’t even notice her. She might not have been as pretty and clean as most, but she still deserved(值得) better. But we still did not do anything, someone else did. The homeless man, who I thought could not afford anything to eat, went back into a store and bought dog food with all the money he had.

As I walked down the 5 streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began 6 both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my 7 , I heard a sound behind me. I 8 quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me 9 ，so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I 10 what the noise had been. It had been my wallet 11 to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk 12 for 15 minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to quit the 13 , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an 14 look in his eyes. “Is this what you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up a wallet.
It was already 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I couldn’t get much sleep, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some 15 of city life. I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.

The good doctor had some interesting 3 concerning planting trees. He never 4 his new trees. Once I asked why. “Watering plants will 5 them.” He said, “If you water them, each younger generation will grow 6 . So you have to make things 7 for them.”
He talked about how watering trees 8 shallow roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow 9 roots in search of water. He’d planted an oak and, 10 watering it every morning, he’d 11 it with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s 12 .
Dr. Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Every now and again, I returned and walked by his 13 and looked at the trees that I’d watched him plant some twenty-five years ago. They’re incredibly 14 now.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two 15 . I stand over them and pray for them. 16 I pray that their lives will be easy. But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my 17.
I know my children are going to encounter hardship. Life is tough, whether we want it to be or not. Too many times we pray for 18 , but that’s a prayer seldom met. What we need to do is pray for 19 that reach deep into the earth 20 they won’t be swept apart when the rains fall and the winds blow.
