His beloved son was   39  in action. The art collector   40  awaited more news,  41  he would never see his son again. Within days, his fears were   42  . The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.
Upset and   43  , the old man faced the coming Christmas holidays with sadness. On Christmas morning, a knock on the door awakened the   44  old man. As he opened the door, he was greeted by a   45  with a large package in his hands.
He introduced himself to the old man by saying,“ I was a   46  of your son. I was the one he was 47  when he died. May I come in for a few moments? I have something to show you.”
As the two began to   48  , the soldier told of how the man's son had told everyone of his, not to mention his father's   49  of fine art. “I am no   50  ,” said the soldier, “but I want to give you this.”
As the old man unwrapped the package, he saw a portrait his son. Though the world would   51 consider it the work of a genius, the painting featured the young man's face   52  striking detail.
Overcome with emotion, the man   53  the soldier. After the soldier had left, the old man put the painting above the fireplace, pushing   54  thousands of dollars worth of art. His task completed, the old man sat in his chair and spent Christmas gazing at the   55  he had been given.

Being beautiful means a lot to teenage girls. Once it did to me too. I was the vainest person in the world, but that all changed one December night.
It was a Thursday, and I was getting ready for the wrestling tournament the following day. I was so excited; it was going to be my first tournament as a cheerleader. I walked past the mirror and stopped to check my appearance. I noticed my eyebrows were a little bushy, and that’s when my vanity kicked in. The brows could be easily fixed with the waxing kit I had purchased. I put the jar of wax in the microwave. But instead of heating the wax for 30 seconds, I pressed too many zeros and heated it for three minutes. As I reached for the jar, I dropped it, spilling it all over myself.
My mother came running when she heard my screams. The hot wax was rolling down my face and arm. My mom took a wet washcloth and tried to wash the wax off my face. This proved to be a bad idea, because the wax was honey based, and it pulled my skin off with the wax.
The 15-mile drive to the emergency room seemed to take hours. When we finally arrived, the nurse didn’t waste any time. They took me straight to a doctor and gave me extra-strength painkillers, so my mind was in confusion. The doctor explained how severe my burns really were: my arm was a combination of first-, second- and third-degree burns, and needed to stay bandaged. My face was first- and second-degree burns. If the wax had gotten any closer to my right eye, I would have lost my sight. I was covered in multi-colored “goop(藥膏)”, wrapped, and sent home to recover.
I got up the next morning and the first thing I wanted to do was wash off the remaining wax. I unwrapped the bandages and “degooped”, letting warm water gently remove the rest of the wax. The next step was to do a self-evaluation of the damage. I couldn’t believe how horrible I looked. A horror-movie monster stared back at me from the mirror. All I could think was, my life is over. For someone as vain as me, this was very true. I thought I was going to be horribly disfigured(毀容的)for the rest of my life! All I could do was cry.
My mom made it worse by forcing me to go out in public. She dragged me to the grocery store and wherever else she felt like taking me. Everywhere we went, people had a million questions, none of which I wanted to answer. Then my mom declared she was going to put me through even more torture—I had to go to school on Monday. School only led to more questions from more people.
Now, two years later, my wounds have healed, leaving a few scars. I still feel self-conscious if I don’t wear make-up, and I’ve discovered that three-quarter length sleeves are wonderful for covering the scars on my arm.
After spending several months adjusting to this injury, I realized how vain I was. I had made beauty important, but it never was or will ever be that important. It took this event to teach me that no matter how much you change on the outside, you’re still the same person on the inside. 
小題1:After the accident, the writer has come to realize that ________.
A.teenage girls care too much about their appearance
B.loving beauty will necessarily make one disfigured
C.we can never judge a person merely by one’s looks
D.sometimes being beautiful can cost you something
小題2:Which of the four statements is a fact?
A.The severe damage to her sight and face weren’t recovered.
B.The mother wished the writer to face her misfortune bravely.
C.From the lesson we conclude that “once bitten, twice frightened”.
D.The severe burns were caused by her mother’s lack of first-aid.
小題3:The underlined sentence in the last paragraph is closest to ________.
A.beauty is not everythingB.a(chǎn) student shall not make up
C.beauty is not importantD.loving beauty will spoil you
小題4:The author develops her composition by ________.
A.offering accurate factsB.giving contrast and comparison
C.using logical argumentsD.representing own experiences
小題5:Which of the following can be the best title?
A.The Price of VanityB.An Unexpected Ending
C.A Disfigured GirlD.Beauty Ruins Everything

Two traveling angels(天使) stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the guest room. Instead the angels were given a space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied: “Things aren’t always what they seem.”
The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor but very hospitable(好客的) farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had, the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night’s rest. When the sun came up the next morning, the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their only income, lay dead in the field.
The younger angel was very angry and asked the older angel, “How could this happen?” Why did you not watch out for the cow? The first man had everything, yet you watched over his house,” she accused. “The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you did not help.”
“Things aren’t always what they seem,” the older angel replied. “When we stayed in the basement, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so greedy and unwilling to share his good fortune, I asked God if I could seal(封口) the wall so he couldn’t find it. Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I asked God if the angel could take the cow instead. Things aren’t always what they seem.”
小題1:Why did the older angel repair the hole for the rich family?
A.Because she didn’t like the greedy owner.
B.Because she wanted to save the gold for the poor.
C.Because the basement was too cold to stay in.
D.Because she believed that one should always be ready to offer help.

Yesterday was my stepmom’s birthday. I hadn’t been home for a long time so I wanted to stop by the house to see her on this special day.
I have been struggling financially so I was afraid of the long trip. Gas is so expensive nowadays! Anyway, I filled my tank with gas and set off.
I stopped at the shopping mall and found a present. It was the perfect gift and I knew she
would love it. But when I got to the cashier my card was declined! I did not have enough money in my account to pay for the gift!
So I pondered the issue for a few minutes. I could put it back and get something cheaper, but I knew there was nothing else in the store she would like as much. So, I got on my smart-phone and transferred some money from my savings account so I was able to pay for the gift. It took a big chunk of my savings but I wanted her to have something special.
She loved the gift and I felt that even though I had spent almost all my money my stepmom deserved the best and I was glad I gave her the best that I could.
Before leaving my parents’ house, my dad took me to one side and, with our secret hand-shake, he gave me some money. I had not said anything to him about my finances but I guess my dad had just known it. When I got to the car, I saw the amount he gave me was three times what I had spent on the gas and the gift!
It goes to show that doing the right thing always comes with great rewards.
小題1:Why was the writer unwilling to have a long trip?
A.Because gas was hardly available.B.Because the writer was short of money.
C.Because the writer didn’t like driving.D.Because the road was difficult to drive on.
小題2:The underlined word “pondered” in Para. 4 means ________.
A.thought aboutB.tried on
C.depended onD.got through
小題3:From the passage, we can infer that ________.
A.the writer loves his/her stepmom very much
B.the gift the writer bought was loved by his/her father very much
C.the writer spent all his/her savings buying the gift for his/her stepmom
D.the gift the writer bought was the most expensive one in the shop
小題4:Why did the writer’s father shake hands with the writer in secret?
A.Because he wanted to ask the writer for something special.
B.Because he wanted to give the writer some money.
C.Because he knew the writer had been struggling financially.
D.Because he didn’t want others to copy their handshake.

One silly question I simply can’t stand is “How do you feel?”  Usually the question is asked of a man in action—a man on the go, walking along the streets, or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He’ll probably say, “Fine, I’m all right,” but you have put a bug in his ear —maybe now he’s not sure. If you are a good friend, you may have seen something in his face, or his walk that he overlooked that morning. It starts worrying him a little. First thing you know, he looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else, “How do you feel?”
Every question has its time and place. It’s perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask “How do you feel?” if you’re visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to make a train, or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question.
When George Bernard Shaw, the famous writer of plays was in his eighties, someone asked him “How do you feel?” Shaw put him in his place. “When you reach my age,” he said, “either you feel all right or you’re dead.”
