完形填空（每小题1分，共20分）

A high school history teacher once told us, “If you make one close friend in school, you will be most fortunate. A   21   friend is someone who stays with you for life”.   22   teaches that he was right. Good friendship is just not easily   23  .

It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place   24   enough for true

friendship to develop. However, there can be   25   disagreement on the need for each of us to think carefully about the kind of friendship we want.

To most of us, friendships are considered very important,   26   we need to

have it clear in our minds the kinds of friendship we want. Are they to be close or   27   at arm’s length? Do we want to   28   ourselves or do we want to walk on the surface? For some people, many friendships on the surface are   29   enough. And that’s all right. But at some   30   we need to make sure that our expectations are the same as our friends’ expectations. The sharing of personal experience including our tears as well as our dark   31   is the surest way to deepen friendships. But it must   32   slowly and carried on only if there are   33   of interest and action in return.

What are some of the   34   of our friendship? The greatest is to   35   too

much too soon. Deep relationships   36   time. Another “major difficulty” is the selfishness to think one “possesses” the other, including his time and attention.   37  , friendships require actions in return. In other words, you must   38   as much as you take. Finally there is a question of taking care of. Unless you spend   39   time together, talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die   40   .

Millions of people all over the world use the word OK. In fact, some people say the word is used more often than any other word in the world. OK means all right or acceptable. It expresses agreement or approval.

    Some people say it came from the Native American Indian tribe known as the Choctaw(乔克托语). The Choctaw word “okeh” means the same as the American word okay. Experts say early explorers in the American West spoke the Choctaw language in the nineteenth century.

But many people doubt this. Language expert Allen Walker Read wrote about the word “OK” in reports published in the 1960s. He said the word began being used in the 1830s.    Some foreign-born people wrote “ all correct” as “o-l-l-k-o-r-r-e-c-t”, and used the letters OK. Other people say a railroad worker named Obadiah Kelly invented the word long ago. They said he put the first letters of his name---O and K---on each object people gave him to send on the train. 

  The organization supported Martin Van Buren for president in 1840. They called their group the OK club. The letters were taken from the name of the town where Martin was born---Old Kinderhook, New York.

Then there is the expression A-OK. It is a space-age expression. It was used in 1961 during the flight of astronaut Alan Shepard. He was the first American to be launched into space. His flight ended when his spacecraft landed in the ocean, as planned. Shepard reported, “Everything is A-OK.”    One story says it was first used during the early days of the telephone to tell an operator that a message had been received.

There are also funny ways to say okay.    These expressions were first used in the 1930s. Today, a character on the American television series “The Simpsons” says it another way. He says okely-doke.

A. Some people say okey-dokey or okey-doke.

B. Still others say a political organization invented the word.

C. Therefore, it has become popular in that area from then on.

D. But many experts don’t agree on what the expression means.

E. Still, language experts do not agree about where the word came from.

F. It was a short way of writing a different spelling of the word “all correct”.

G. However, some experts say the expression did not begin with the space age.

One night, a young school teacher had a dream．In his dream, an angel appeared and said to him, "You will be given a child who will grow up to become a world  26 ．How will you prepare him so that he will realize his 27 , grow in confidence, be open-minded, and strong in character? In short, what kind of 28  will you provide so that he can become one of the truly  29 leaders?"

The young teacher 30  in a cold sweat．It had never 31  to him before --- any one of his present or future students could be the person  32  in his dream．Was he preparing them to  33  to any position which they want? He thought, "How might my  34 change if I knew that one of my students was this person?" He 35 began to develop a plan in his mind．

His teaching 36．Every young person who walked through his 37 became, for him, a future world leader．He saw each one, not as they were, but as they could be．He 38 the best from his students, yet tempered （使缓和） it with compassion （同情）．He taught each one 39 the future of the world depended on his instruction．

After many years, a man he taught rose to a 40 of world prominence （著名）．Of all the various teachers in his life, he was the 41 ．

Children are  42  messages we send to a time and place we will never see．Believe that one child's  43  may depend upon influence only you can provide, and something remarkable will 44 ．For no young person will ever be 45 to you again．And you will never be the same．

Mr. Reese was born in a big city. His father had several companies and got a lot of money. He could give his son all the young man wanted. He was busy with his business and never asked him how he got along with his studies. So the boy spent most time in the restaurants or cinemas. Of course he was weak at his lessons and learned nothing at school.
