第二节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）

Perhaps the only test score that I remember is the 41. I was in high school. The test was the final for the class. It was a rather 36 test. I didn’t know how 37 I had done but I knew there were things on 38 that I didn’t know.

I remember 39 waiting for the result. When Mr. Bales 40 my paper on my desk, I was 41 . There in big 42 numbers, circled to draw attention, was my grade — 41! I 43 my paper so that others couldn’t see it. A 41 was not 44 that you wanted your classmates to see. Finally, Mr. Bales stood behind the desk and 45 the class. “The grades were not very good; 46 of you passed,” he announced. “ The highest grade in the class was a 41, so all of you failed.”

A 41. That was me. Suddenly my dismal(阴沉的) face didn’t look quite so bad. I had the highest grade. I felt a lot 47 . As soon as I got home, my mother asked me, “How did you do on your test?” “I made a 41,” I said. My mother’s 48 changed suddenly. “You failed.” “But I had the highest grade in the class!” I replied. “ I don’t 49 what everyone else had. You failed. It doesn’t matter if everyone else failed too; what matters is what you do,” my mother 50 answered.

For years, I thought that was a harsh judgment. My mother was always that 51 . It didn’t matter what the other kids did; it only mattered what I did and 52 I did it excellently.

We often don’t understand the wisdom of good parents until we ourselves stand 53 the parenting shoes. My mother’s philosophy（人生态度）has 54 me throughout life. The path of the crowd is wide but the path to pass the tests of life is 55 and there are very few people on it.

36．A. easy B. difficult C. exciting D. disappointed

37．A. much B. good C. well D. long

41．A.excited B. worried C. delighted D. shocked

42．A. red B. black C. blue D. green

43．A. collected B. gathered C. hid D. kept

44．A. everything B. something C. anything D. nothing

45．A. talked B. declared C. announced D. addressed

46．A. some B. each C. none D. most

A

I?stopped at?a grocery?store the other day because I was?about to go on a long drive?and I wanted to buy my favorite beverage for the trip.?It wasn’t the store I normally go to, just one I passed along the way.

As I walked up to the entrance, I noticed a?man and a?boy who was about 10 or 12 years old?standing at the front of the store.?Customers walked past, as the man handed them half-sheets of white paper.?I?walked up to them with curiosity, wondering what cause they were representing. As I got closer, I saw that they had two carts starting to fill?with groceries.

I said hello and the man greeted me and?handed me?one of?the pieces?of paper, explaining that they were collecting donations for the local food pantry.?On?the paper?was a simple?list of food items: peanut butter, noodles, pasta sauce, canned?fruits and vegetables.?It also?included?a short?story about the boy and his efforts to collect food donations since the age of 8.?I was really touched that someone so young would be so interested in helping others.?I told him it was an awesome idea and that he should be proud of himself.?He smiled.

Then, I went inside to get my drink.?Unfortunately, the store didn’t have it in stock. But, I wasn’t upset, because by then?I felt I had another mission.?I went through the store, picking things from the list, then brought them back out to the boy and put them in the cart.?I also gave the man the white sheet of paper back to reuse for another customer.?They thanked me and offered me a treat (candy, I think) but I said to pass it on to someone else.
