The other day, I happened to meet someone I hadn’t seen for many years. I couldn’t believe the change in him. In fact, he didn’t even seem like the    21   person.
When I first knew Bill , back in   22 , he was one of the most carefree(无忧无虑)people I had ever    23  . He was always ready to have a party. He thought    24  of going out for beer at three o’clock in the morning or driving 15 miles to see an old   25   he really liked.
Bill and I were in the same class in college, and    26   was never dull when he was    27  . With him there was one wild    28   after another. Sometimes I wonder how we    29   to study for our exams.
Last week I was in Houston on business and I ran into Bill in the bar at the hotel.   30  , I wasn’t even sure it was    31  . Was this short-haired businessman really the same person? I wasn’t really sure until I came near him but it indeed was Bill. Now he works for a bank. He    32  most of the evening about his job, his new car and his house. How he had changed! Back when we were in college, the    33   thing Bill cared about were possessions(财富). Now they seemed to be his main    34  .Although I have changed quite a bit myself, somehow I never    35   Bill changing so much. My image of him   36    the one I had formed     37  the time when we were college students together.
I suppose it’s   38    to expect people to remain the same, especially    39   I have changed so much myself. But I must say that I enjoyed the old Bill much more than the new Bill. Maybe he    40  the same way about me.

第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
Big things were happening in my life the summer I turned 13. In the middle of that summer, my parents shook my entire world and turned it upside down when they told me they were getting a divorce. I couldn't believe that our family was going to break up. Though I always knew my parents weren't very happy and they often fought, I still wanted my family to stay the same.
My life changed completely after the divorce.My mother and I moved into a small apartment across town,while my father and brother,Bill, stayed in our house.I now became a visitor whenever I went to see my dad and Bill on the weekends. And immediately I had my soon-to-be stepfather,Dan,whom I showed no interest in.I was clearly depressed, especially after Dan and my mother married and I realized that there was no way that things could change back to the way they had been.
Even though I resisted all Dan's attempts to get to know me and wasn't very nice to him, he never gave up on me. Gradually, I began to trust him. I realized that we actually had some things in common, especially when it came to movies and TV shows. We spent a lot of time together hanging out watching TV. That gave us a chance to talk and get to know each other.
Better still, Dan showed an interest in me that I had never experienced from my own father. Dan was always around when I needed advice on school or friends. Once I began to warm up to Dan, the three of us began spending a lot of time together. We often went out to eat and took short trips. Eventually, I discovered that I finally had the happy family that I had always wanted.
I now realize my parents were right about getting the divorce. Their breakup was the best thing to happen for all of us. My father also found happiness- he remarried and had another child, my half-sister, Michelle.    
At 13, I learned an important truth-change is not always the worst thing that can happen. Sometimes, it is just what we need the most.
