I loved working with my dad, but I hated a summer job he gave me. He owned a small in Bank Street. In his shop, the most recently person got the worst job, and the boss’ son was also .

I didn’t want to spend hours the frost on the ceiling of the walk-in freezer, and it was the Saturday afternoon’s job that I hated most. We received fresh every day. Chicken sat in wooden boxes and was with crushed ice. During the week, the ice and the blood of the chicken slowly leaked into the container the chicken, creating its bloody smell.

There was only one to get rid of the blood and wash the container: hold my and carefully slide the container from under the chicken, as I tried not to the contents over my clothes, and then into the drain(下水道).

Soon, students who have cut lawns, painted houses, worked in offices, maybe even worked in the butcher’s will to school. Some will have great memories others will come back with ones.

Looking back, I think my father could have me from my weekly hell. However, my dad, who’d dropped out of school to help support his family after his father died, was a teacher for me . He knew treating me from his other employees would be an unfair thing. Most importantly, he taught me to those who do the hard and tasks in life.

For the next six summers, I returned not as the boss’ son, but as one of other guys, and I cleaned the dirty container every Saturday afternoon.

Section C (8 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.

If there were a literary award bigger than the Nobel Prize, Alice Munro would probably win that, too. Munro,82, was awarded literature’s highest honor, respected by the Nobel committee as a thorough but forgiving chronicler(事件的记录者) of the human spirit.

Among her best-known is The Bear Came Over the Mountain, about a woman who agrees with her husband that she should be put in a nursing home. The narrative begins in a relatively tender, traditional mood. But we soon learn that the husband has been unfaithful and doesn’t always regret it. The wife, meanwhile, has fallen for a man at the nursing home. Munro won a National Book Critics Circle prize in 1998 for The Love of a Good Woman and she is also a three-time winner of the Governor General’s prize, Canada’s highest literary honor.

She received a scholarship to study at the University of Western Ontario, majoring in journalism, and was still an undergraduate when she sold a story to CBC radio in Canada. She dropped out to marry a fellow student, James Munro, had three children and became a full-time housewife. By her early 30s, she was so frightened and depressed that she could barely write a full sentence.

Her good fortune was to open a bookstore, in 1963. Inspired by everything from the conversation of adults to simply filling out invoices(发票), she saw her narrative talents resurface. Her first collection, Dance of the Happy Shades, came out in 1968 and won the Governor General’s prize.

Her books having been sold more than 1 million copies in the U.S. alone, she has long been an international ambassador for the short story. Critics and peers have praised her in every way a writer can be praised: the precision of her language; the perfection of detail; the surprise and logic of her storytelling; the graceful shifts of moods. So, she is the kind of writer about whom it is often said-no matter how well known she becomes—that she ought to be better known.

Old friends

They finish your sentences, they remember the cat that ran away when you were twelve, and they tell you the truth when you’ve had a bad haircut. But mostly, they are always there for you — whether it’s in person or ________late night phone calls — in good times and________. But as the years pass, it becomes increasingly________to see each other, to make new memories. ________, my high school friends and I promised long ago not to let this happen. We promised to have reunions.

A few months ago, we met up for a two-day________in the American Southwest. We grew up together in Maine and have said for years that we should have a(n) ________event, yet it’s often put off or________due to schedule conflicts(冲突). Not this year.

The weekend ________long talks by the pool, wonderful meals, and a hike that brought the entire group to________ . Not tears of sadness or anger, but an outpouring of emotion over the complete wonderment that we can be this close — twelve years after graduation — with such physical________between us. It’s heartbreaking that we can’t spend our days together in the same neighborhood, walking the same streets, reading the same newspaper at the same coffee shop. But that’s________. Grown-up life.

Most________ is the group’s adaptability to one another. The time we spend ________is non-existent.

Life today, ________, is no math class. Our world is full of________ , full of fear. Yet it ________ me — now, more than ever — how important it is that we stay________ .
