Last year, I lost my best friend in high school. It seemed that everyone else’s life could just continue on in its  36  way, but mine couldn't. I wasn't sure how I was going to be able to face  37  and their gossip at school. I was forced to  38  my routine on Monday morning as usual. In the evening I returned home from school  39  completely defeated. All I wanted to do was  40  into bed and wallow(沉迷于)in my own self-pity. I pulled back the covers on my bed and  41  a pile of cards left by my dad. Each card included a(n)  42  that it was to be opened on a  43  night that week.
I made it through that week  44  my father. Each card  45  to say just what I needed to hear. Tuesday’s card said, “The past is painful to think about and the  46  is impossible to imagine. Don't try. Just take it one minute at a time.” On Wednesday my mood  47  when I read, “What you are feeling now is  48  and normal. It still feels very bad, but it is part of the healing  49 .” Friday’s card contained a poem he wrote. The last lines made me smile through my tears. “Whatever special  50  you face along life’s way, may you  51  that you will find the best in every day.” I was instructed to open the last card  52  the party I went to on Saturday night. In it he wisely reminded me to  53 . “The world isn't so bad after a good laugh. The more you laugh, the more you heal.” Each card was signed, “Love, Dad.”
My world once collapsed (fell down) but I  54  the difficult breakup eventually. It owed to my dad, who made his  55  known when he couldn't be present.

第三部分阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
On some level, I always knew that I wanted to be a doctor--at least from the age of eight or ten years old, anyway.
Although my father wasn’t a doctor, he made his own brand of “house calls. I followed  him as he brought a plate of my mother’s home cooking to an elderly man named Frank on all major holidays and when Frank was sick. As far as I know, their only connection was that Frank was an occasional customer at Dad’s small gas station. Frank’s home was a two-room house on the rough side of town with an old front porch(门廊) where you could fall if you weren’t careful. Frank had no relatives and as far as I could tell, no other visitors either. Through his attitude of caring, my father was teaching me to be a doctor, although neither of us knew it at the time.
When I was 13, my father developed lung cancer. He brought home a diagram the doctor had drawn showing where his cancer was and told me that he was going to die. He asked me to take care of my mother when he was gone. I was an only child. He said he loved me on the night when he died.
When you’re 13 and your father dies, you have some choices to make. You can use the situation as an excuse for letting your actions and grades go down, or you can honor his memory and try to do something positive with yourself. I focused my energy on my schoolwork and my goal of becoming a doctor.
56. What was the father’s“own brand of ‘house calls’”?

B. In return for Father's help, Frank usually came up at his gas station.
