The other day I decided to come home early because it was such a beautiful day. The

42
slowly to avoid an accident, I noticed a little boy
43 at the ice cream truck. He didn’t get anything and he walked away with a 44
look on his face. I asked the ice cream seller what happened and he said the little boy had no
45. I had no cash on me so I drove to my building and went upstairs to

some cash. When I found it, the ice cream seller was

ice cream but she did not have enough money to buy 52 .

out what they wanted.

Passage 3
I am my mother’s third child. When I was born, the doctor gently explained to my mother that my left arm was

24
!

my family. There were five girls in our family and we all had to
26
. Once when I was about seven, I came out of the

, “Mom, I can’t peel (削……皮) potatoes. I only have one hand.” “You get back to peel those potatoes, and don’t ever use that as a(n)
28
for anything again!”
Of course I could peel potatoes — with my good hand, while holding them down with my

, and Mom knew it. “If you try hard

my head. Some kids
33
. I went home crying.After work the next afternoon, Mom
34
me back to the school playground.“Now,
35
up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by
36
I practiced, and she
37
me when I made progress. I’ll never forget the
38
time I was crossing the bars. The kids were standing there with their mouths open.
It was the way with everything. When I
39
or I can’t handle (处理) things, I see Mom’s smile again. She had the heart to
40
anything. And she taught me I could, too.

Passage 3:
Passage 4
One morning I wasted nearly an hour watching a tiny ant carry a huge feather.Several times, it
41 several obstacles(障碍) in its path.And after a momentary pause it would make the necessary detour (绕道). 42 one point, the ant had to cross a crack(裂缝) about 10mm wide.After some
43
thoughts, the ant laid the feather over the crack, walked
44 it and picked the feather up on the other side, then continued on its way.I was
45 by the cleverness of this ant.It was only a small insect, lacking in
46
yet equipped with a brain to reason, explore, discover and overcome. 47
this ant, like the other two-legged creatures
48
on the earth, also shares human failings.
After some time the ant 49
reached its destination --- a flower bed and a small hole that was the entrance to its
50
home.It was there that the ant met its 51 .How could that large feather possibly
52 such a small hole? Of course, it couldn’t.So the ant, after all this
53
and using great brightness, overcoming problems a1l along the way, just gave up the
54
and went home.The ant had not thought the problem through
55 it began its journey and in the end the feather was
56
more than a burden.Isn’t our
57 like that?
We worry about our families; we worry about the
58
of money; and we worry about all kinds of things.These are all burdens --- the things we pick up along life’s path, and drag them around the obstacles and over the cracks that life will bring, only to
59 that at the destination they are
60
and we can’t take them with us.
