Just home from work, Daddy stepped in the kitchen where Mother and I were preparing supper．From the look on his face, we knew something was 1 him．
“Mr．Roth is worse, ” he said．“The doctor says it's only a 2 of time now．The old man call 3 his pain, but not the long hours he has to spend alone．His eyes are 4 bad that he can't read, and he doesn't get much 5 ．He keeps begging for a big dog to be his companion, 6 he can reach out and touch as he sits in his wheelchair in the sun．”
“Why don't they 7 him a dog?” I asked．
“Honey, with Mr．Roth in the hospital so much of time．there are a lot of 8 ．There isn't enough money．”
“They could go to the animal shelter and get one．”I 9 ．
“Yes,” Daddy said．“I suppose they could．But it has to be a 10 dog, which they can trust to be gentle．Not all big dogs are．”
After supper, I went 11 my big German shepherd(牧羊犬), Dan, was usually dozing．He jumped up and ran to meet me 12 he always did when I came into sight．There were no other 12－year－old girls in our neighborhood, so I 13 Dan for companionship．When I rode my bicycle, he ran behind me；when I roller－skated on the sidewalk, he followed behind．It had been that way since Daddy 14 him home four years before．
Now, I couldn't 15 Daddy's words in the kitchen．I threw my arms 16 Dan's neck and buried my face in his stiff hair．
“I love you,” I whispered to him．“I'd be 17 without you, but…oh, Dan, I know what I should do, 18 I don't want to do it．”
I thought about Mr．Roth．He was old, sick and almost 19 ．It seemed to me that he was just about out of blessings．I 20 quickly．I knew what I had to do．
I went to my father and said, “Mr．Roth can borrow Dan．”Tears started down my face．
As my wife greeted me one evening, her voice came through the door,“Guess what?”
I always take a deep 1 on this very leading question．“What?”I asked．
“I just won a sales contest at work and the 2 is dinner for two at the new fancy restaurant down by the river-front!”
She was so 3 ．We knew the restaurant was extremely good．“See?I told you there would be a 4 for me to wear my new spring outfit,”she shyly reminded me．
“ 5 can play at that game,”I responded．“I will wear my gray suit, my Borsalino imported straw hat and a new silk tie．We will be well 6 ．”
It was early 7 and nearing dusk as the waiter took us to a table by a window, with a(n) 8 of the river．And the table was 9 set, with a smoke-gray tablecloth and bright colored napkins．
A delicious meal 10 in such an atmosphere should be remembered a long time．As it 11 , this will probably never be forgotten．
As the shadows lengthened, the 12 rocking by the riverbank, I murmured,“Why not take a walk?”
Hand in hand, we walked by the stores．People smiled and nodded．“I 13 realized there were so many 14 people as we have seen this evening, dear,”I observed．
“Probably your new straw hat or your 15 ,”she said．
After receiving many smiles, we 16 ourselves back at the restaurant, looking at ourselves in the 17 ．It was then that I saw the 18 for all the smiles．
Caught in the fly of my trousers and 19 down for all to see was a bright red 20 from the restaurant!

完形填空。
In my third year as a high school athletics coach, I gave a speech telling students and parents about the benefits of football．I gave the same 1 each year, aimin g at recruiting(招收)new team members．I talked about 2 football wasn't just for 3 athletes and how everyone could 4 from it．This year, a 5 looking couple approached me after my speech．They said their son really wanted to play football．They had tried to 6 him out of it, but he had his heart 7 on joining the team．
When they told me his name, my heart sank．Michael was five feet and ten inches tall and weighed about 108 pounds．He was a 8 boy, the constant target of other kids' jokes, and as far as I knew he had never 9 sports．I knew he would never 10 it through football practice, let 11 as a player．But we told them we could give it a try．
On the opening day of practice, Michael was the first player on the field, we did 30 minutes of warming-up 12 starting a one-mile jog around the track．I 13 my eye on Michael．At 50 yards he fell, and I helped him to his feet．“Michael,”I said,“Why don't you just 14 the mile?”He said in tears that he wanted to run with the others, so I let him go on． 15 he fell, but each time 16 himself up．
The same thing happened every day for weeks, and Michael gained strength both 17 and physically．By the last week of practice, Michael could run the mile without falling, we had 18 only one game that season, 19 the team cheered louder for Michael's run than the victory they had, Afterward, Michael approached me, and I told him how 20 I was of him．
When I was a little girl, every Sunday my family of six would put on our best clothes and go to Sunday School and then church．The 1 in elementary school would all meet together to sing songs, and then later divide into 2 based on their ages．
One Easter Sunday, all the kids 3 with big eyes and big 4 about what the Easter Bunny(复活节小兔)had brought． 5 all of the kids shared their stories with 6 , one young boy , whom I shall call Bobby, sat 7 ．One of the teachers , noticing this, said to him, “And what did the Easter Bunny 8 you?”He replied, “My mom 9 the door by accident so the Easter Bunny couldn't get 10 because he hadn't got a key．”
This sounded like a 11 idea to all of us kids, so we kept on going with the stories．My mom knew the true story, 12 ．Bobby's mom was a single parent , and she suspected(怀疑)that they just couldn't 13 the Easter Bunny．
After Sunday School was over, everyone went off to 14 ．But my mom announced that we were going home 15 ．At home, she explained that to make Bobby feel 16 , we were going to pretend(假装)to be the Easter Bunny , make a basket of our candies for him and 17 it at church．We all donated(捐赠)some to the basket, and 18 back to church．There, mom hung the basket over the hanger(挂钩)and attached(附上)a(n) 19 ：
Dear Bobby,
I'm sorry I 20 your house last night．Happy Easter．
