As a child, I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost; these fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.

Maybe it was the strange 36 things looked and sounded in my familiar room at night that 37 me so much. There was never total 38 , but a streetlight or passing car lights 39 clothes hung over a chair take on(呈现) the 40 of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my 41 , I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no 42 . A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My 43 would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would 44 very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.

Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, 45 on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home .That was no 46 . After school, 47 , when all the buses were 48 up along the street, I was afraid that I’d get on the wrong one and be taken to some 49 neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn’t let the leaders out of my 50 .

Perhaps one of the worst fears 51 all I had as a child was that of not being liked or 52 by others. Being popular was so important to me 53 , and the fear of not being liked was a 54 one.

One of the processes(过程) of growing up is being able to 55 and overcome(克服) our fears. Understanding the things that frightened us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.

语篇二Nick Campbell sat at the side of the road and wondered what to do next. He looked at the second-hand Harley Davidson he’d bought from a back-street garage back home in Miami at the beginning of his trip six weeks before.

For years he had dreams of crossing the United States from east to west by motorbike and he’d finally decided that it was now or never. He’d given up his job, sold his car and set off for the journey of his dreams. He’d been lucky, or so he thought, to find this old Harley Davidson and had bought it for a very reasonable price—it had cost him just $600. But five kilometers from Atlanta, he had run out of luck. The motorbike had broken down.

He pushed the bike into town and found a garage. The young mechanic told him to leave the bike overnight and come back the next day. The following morning, to his surprise, the man asked if the bike was for sale. “Certainly not,” he replied, paid his bill and hit the road.

When he got to Kansas the old machine ran out of steam again. This time Nick thought about selling it and buying something more reliable, but decided to carry on. When the bike was going well, he loved it.

However, in Denver, Colorado the bike broke down again so he decided to take it to a garage and offer it for sale. The mechanic told him to come back in the morning.

The next day, to his amazement, the man offered him $2,000. Realizing the man must be soft in the head, but clearly not short of money, Nick asked for $ 3,000. The man agreed and they

signed the papers. Then the mechanic started laughing. In fact it was several minutes before he could speak and when he could he said, “That’s the worst deal you’ll ever make, boy.”

He removed the seat. On the underside was the inscription (铭文):

“To Elvis, love James Dean.”

语篇三I made a promise to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.

The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical passage about husbands and their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will.

A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.

And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.” “Oh, Tom, you noticed”, she said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled. After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach.

I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyn’s been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.

So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole vacation passed. I made a new promise to keep on remembering to choose love.

There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.

“What’s the matter?” I asked her.

“Tom,” she said in a voice filled with sadness, “Do you know something I don’t?”

“What do you mean?”

“Well…that checkup I had several weeks ago…our doctor…did he tell you something about me? Tom, you’ve been so good to me…am I dying?”

It took a moment for it all to be understood. Then I burst out laughing.

“No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”

10. From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage ______.

A. with his family

B. with Evelyn

C. alone

D. with his children

11. During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because ______.

12. The author says, “There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment.” What does “one thing” refer to?

A. He praised her sweater, which puzzled her.

B. She insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated.

C. He knew something about her illness but didn’t tell her.

D. He was so good to her that she thought she must be dying.
