It was one of the hottest days of the dry season.We had not seen __ in almost a month.The crops were dying.If we didn’t see some rain soon,we would lose everything.

I was in the kitchen that day when I saw my son,Billy,walking toward the ___.Trying to be as still as possible,he was obviously walking with great ___.Minutes after he disappeared into the woods,he came running out again,toward the house.Moments later,however,he was once again walking in that __ way toward the woods.I couldn’t take it any longer and I __ him.

He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked,being very___ not to spill(溢出)the water he carried.

As I came closer,I saw the most surprising sight.Several large deer stood in front of him.Billy walked right up to them.But the deer did not hurt him nor __ move as Billy knelt down.And then I saw a baby deer lying on the ground,obviously thirsty,lift its head to lap up the water in my boy’s hands.When the water was gone,Billy jumped up to run back to the house.I followed him back to a spigot(水龍頭).Billy opened it and let the drip slowly __ up his “cup”.

When he stood up and began to turn back,I was there in front of him.His little eyes were filled with tears.

“I’m not __,” was all he said.The week before,he had made the same trouble with our horses,which caused him a lecture from his father about the importance of not wasting water.

This time,I ___ him,with a small pot of water from the kitchen.I let him take care of the baby deer alone for it was his job.As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground,they were suddenly joined by other drops... more drops... and more.I looked up at the sky.All I can say is that the rain that came that day saved our farm,just like the actions of one little boy saved another.

Jeans have become one piece of clothing worn by the most people in the world. Everybody wears them, from the farmer to the lawyer and from models to housewives. But why have jeans become so popular？You’ll get many answers. For some people they look cool, for others jeans are just comfortable.

Jeans were first stronger trousers made for farm workers in the states of the American west. In the eastern part of the US jeans were hardly worn at all. They were connected with farm people and the workers. So the rich wouldn’t like to wear them.

It was James Dean and Marlon Brando that made them popular in movies and everyone started to wear them. They were a symbol of the rebellion of young people during the 1950s and 1960s. So these new trousers were not allowed in American schools and sometimes in theatres and cinemas. As time went on，jeans became more acceptable. American people in Europe and Japan often wore them when they were not on duty to show that they were Americans. The trousers showed the world a happier way of life, something that people needed, especially after what they had gone through in World War II.

Jeans had other advantages as well. They didn’t need to be washed as often as other trousers and women didn’t need to iron them. This became more important as more and more women started working and had less time for housework.

Today jeans are an important part of our lives. They are always washed a few times before they are sold to give them a faded look.

1.Jeans first appeared ___________.

A. in eastern America B. in western America C. in Middle America D. all over America

2.What is the possible meaning of the underlined “rebellion” in this passage?

A. 奢侈 B. 活力 C. 清純 D. 反叛

3.What is the best title of the passage?

A. Jeans --- Symbol of Wealth

B. Jeans --- Working Women’s Best Choice

C. Jeans --- Popular Piece of Clothing in Our Daily Life

D. Jeans --- Part of the Lives of Farm People and Workers
