Good Heart to Lean on

  More than I realized.Dad has helped me keep my balance.

  When I was growing up, I was embarrassed(使不安)to be seen with my father.He was severely disabled and very   1  , and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for   2   , people would stare.I would inwardly feel uncomfortable at the unwanted   3  .If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never   4   that he knew.

  It was   5   to coordinate(协调)our steps-his hesitant, mine impatient-and because of that, we didn't   6   much as we went along.But as we started out, he always said.“You set the   7  .I will try to follow you.”

  Our usual walk was to or from the subway, which was   8   he got to work.He went to work despite illness and nasty weather.He almost never missed a day, and would   9   it to the office even if others could not.A matter of   10  

  He never talked about himself as an object of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or  11  .What he looked for   12   others was a “good heart”, and if he found one, the   13   was good enough for him.

  Now that I am older, I believe that his idea is a proper   14   by which to judge people, even though I   15  don't know exactly what a “good heart” is.  16   I know the times I don't have one myself.

  He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often.I wonder if he   17   I was unwilling to be seen with him during our   18  .Now that I am older, I'm sorry that I never told him how sorry I was for my feeling   19   to be with him in public and how unworthy I felt to be his daughter.I think of him when I complain about trifles(琐事), when I am envious of another's good fortune, and when I don't possess a “good heart”.

  At such times I put my hand on his arm to   20   my balance, and say, “You set the pace.I will try to follow you.”

三、阅读理解(共20 小题;每小题 2分,满分40分)
After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.
During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles(克服困难) and going for(努力实现) my dreams.
I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain(抱怨)or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention(提到) that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase(公事包) and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion(冠军). You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away(去世). They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:
Dear Dick,
My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.
I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven(天堂), God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.
Your friend,
Matthew
