At the end of a writing class, I asked the students to share what they had written. We had a new student at the school, Al. Al had been with us for only a short while and was still trying to fit in(适应), so I was a little surprised when he volunteered to read. I asked him to read, but inside I wished that the other students would not laugh at him. Al began to read, “If I had one wish, it would be to meet my dad ...” He started out loud and clear. He told how he had never seen his father. He told how he tried to be the only man in the house at such a young age. I took a look at the students. I knew some kids liked to laugh at others. However, all of my students were listening. They were letting him do this, I thought. They were allowing him to share something. “If I had one wish, it would be to meet my dad, so I wouldn’t have to close my eyes every night just wondering what he looks like,” Al finished. The class stood up and applauded(鼓掌). They all ran to Al with hugs. My eyes got wet. This is why I teach. I teach because I can watch kids grow and laugh and learn and love. 46.

A. surprised at B. interested in C. moved by D. worried about Ｂ This sad story happened on a cold winter evening. It was so cold and snow was falling so heavily that the roads were covered with ice and a strong wind was blowing. Being outside in such weather was very unwise. However, Peter Lee had to walk home from work. Peter walked with difficulty along a country road, the cold wind beating against his chest. He thought, “If I wear my coat backwards, maybe, it will be a little bit warmer for me.” He stopped walking, took off his coat, and put it on backwards. “That’s much better,” he said to himself happily. Walking on through the thickly falling snow, he was thinking about drinking a cup of warm coffee by the burning fireplace. A few minutes later, a car knocked down Peter. The driver hadn’t seen him soon enough. When he tried his best to put on the brakes (刹车), the car skidded (打滑) on the icy road. The frightened driver got out of the car and ran to see how the poor man was. After a while, a police car arrived. A policeman went up to see Mr Lee who was lying on the ground. He told the driver, “I’m afraid he’s dead.” The driver was so surprised. “This can’t be the case, because I hardly touched him. Check my car carefully. There’s not a mark on it.” The policeman said, “I’m sure he’s dead.” “It’s impossible,” the driver said anxiously. “As soon as I hit him, I ran to help him. He was lying on the road, but he was breathing and there was no blood.” “Did you touch him?” the policeman asked. “Yes, but only to turn his head around the right way,” the driver answered. 51.
