I always felt sorry for people in wheelchairs.Some people,old and weak,cannot 36 by themselves.Others seem perfectly healthy, 37 in business suits,and wheel themselves around with strong determination.But whenever I saw someone in a wheelchair,I only saw a 38 ,not a person.
Then I fainted（晕倒）at Euro Disney 39 low blood pressure.This was the first time I had ever fainted,and my parents said that I must 40 for a while after First Aid.I agreed to take it easy,but 41 I stepped toward the door,I saw my dad pushing a (n) 42 in my direction!Feeling the colour burn my cheeks,I asked h im to wheel that thing right back to 43 he found it.
I could not believe this was happening to me.Wheelchairs were 44 for other people but not for me.As my father wheeled me out into the main street,people 45 began to treat me differently.
Little kids ran in front of me, 46 my father to stop the wheelchair suddenly. 47 set in as I was thrown back and forth.“Stupid kids—they have perfectly good 48 .Why can’t they watch where they’re going?”I thought.People 49 down at me,pity in their eyes.Then they would look away,maybe because they thought the 50 they forgot me,the better.
“I am just like you!”I wanted to scream.“The only 51 is that you’ve got legs,and I have wheels.”
People in wheelchairs are not 52 .They can see every look and hear each word.Looking out at the faces,I finally understood: I was once just like them.I 53 people in wheelchairs exactly the way they did not 54 to be treated.I realized it is some of us with two healthy legs who are 55 disabled.

One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son in charge of his 8-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister.On this occasion,the work was made less troublesome by the presence of his girlfriend.I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children.Later,I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with.
I had decided to return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out.I called home with this happy news.But instead of hearing his cheerful,grateful voice on the other end of the line,all I heard was the sound of a telephone ringing.
It was,I should point out,after 10 p.m.,when the two younger children should have been in bed.and when the two older children should have been answering the phone.“I’ll give him a lesson.”I said.I decided they must be outside.Why they might be outside at 10∶30 on a winter night I had no idea,but it was the only explanation I could come up with.
Finally,in desperation,I called his girlfriend’s house.After what seemed like countless rings,his girlfriend answered.“Yes,”she said brightly,“He’s right here.”
He came on the phone.I was not my usual calm,rational(理智的)self.After all,one of the rules of survival for modern parents is that you can’t trust modem teenagers.“Where are the children?”I said.He said they were with him.They had done nothing wrong.My son had taken the younger children over to his girlfriend’s house just for ice cream and cake.This was too good to be believed.Well,it turns out that I shouldn’t have believed it.It was only part of the truth.
The following Saturday evening we were at my parents home,celebrating my birthday.My oldest son gave me the children’s gifts.Mounted and framed were a series of lovely color photographs of my children,dressed in their best clothes,and wearing their most wonderful expressions.They are pictures to treasure a lifetime,all taken by the father of my son’s girlfriend.

One summer my friend and I decided to go to Italy for a holiday and we decided to travel there without going through a travel agency. You know, you would be submerged (淹没) in crowds of tourists and lose lots of opportunities to get familiar with the country more closely. We started to think over our trip and managed to come up with a f ree tour of Italy.
The trip was not very long but it was still very impressive. We look forward to going there again! Of course, we spent lots of time arranging the trip, but it was well worth it! Of course I was afraid that something would go wrong and I was especially anxious about my visa, but everything went quite smoothly in the end.
The most difficult part was getting a visa without an invitation. In the Italian consulate(领事馆), one must hand in some official paper proving that one has a hotel booked for oneself in order to get the visa. Then we had to solve the ticket problem. Airlines often sell cheap tickets a nd we bought ours far in advance. The next step was to book a hotel. We finally booked a hotel about thirty km away from the heart of Rome and it was the perfect choice for our trip.
Every day we took a train that carried us to the heart of Rome. Our big house, which was surrounded by the forest, was a rare girl for the fresh air and absolute silence, beautiful views, hospitable (好客的) hosts, comfortable living conditions delighted us to no end. Besides this, we were very lucky that our mistress was Russian. She gave us a lot of advice that was of great use. She told us what transport to choose and where the best places to go.
Don’t be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself. It’s not difficult! The only thing I"ll say right now is that we really enjoyed traveling by ourselves. We walked with a map and a guide-book to wherever we wanted and we even met some of our fellow countrymen on the way just two or three times. So, if you"re also planning a "single" trip, don"t forget to take a Russian-Italian phrasebook as people in Italy prefer to speak in their native tongue.
小题1: Why does the author want to go to Italy again?| A．He had a great time there. | | B．Italy has a lot of attractions. | | C．His friend invited him there. | | D．He didn"t stay in Italy long enough. |
小题2:What does the author think was the hardest in preparing for his Italian trip?| A．Buying cheap airline tickets to Italy before the traveling | | B．Getting a visa without an invitation from the Italian consulate. | | C．Booking a comfortable hotel on his own in Rome. | | D．Solving the ticket problem far in advance. |
小题3: In the fourth paragraph the author mainly explains| A．the reason why he chose to live in the center of Rome | | B．the reason why the hotel he booked was the right choice | | C．what transport they chose to travel in their Italian trip | | D．the reason why the mistress gave them some advice |
小题4:Which of the following questions has NOT been answered in the passage?| A．Why did the author decide to go to Italy for a holiday for the first time? | | B．Why did the author decide not to follow a travel agency? | | C．How did the author prepare for his trip? | | D．What tools did the author use for his traveling? |
小题5: From the text we can know the authorA．enjoy s traveling everywhere in the world | | B．likes being accompanied by tour guides | | C．advises us to arrange trips by ourselves | D．met with a lot of his countrymen  in Italy |

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station(加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, w here I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.
I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.
Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership—a shop selling cars—was right next door. I walked over and found  two salesmen in the showroom.
“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?”I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.

Geena David knew she wanted to be a movie star when she was very young．She was not sure what gave her the idea, but she wanted to look like a movie star．“I have a lot of pictures from my childhood of me wearing sunglasses,”she says．“I used to wear them to watch TV．”
Early movie actors started wearing sunglasses not because they looked good, but because their eyes hurt．The lights used on movie sets were extremely bright and could cause a painful problem known as “Klieg eyes”．It was named after the Klieg brothers who invented the lights．Actors wore sunglasses to give their eyes a rest．But when movie stars began wearing their sunglasses in public, they quickly became a must．
