 I used to watch her from my kitchen window. She seemed so small as she muscled her way through the crowd of boys on the playground. The school was across the street from our home and I would often watch the kids as they played during break. I remember the first day I saw her playing basketball. I watched in wonder as she ran circles around the other kids. She managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the net. The boys always tried to stop her but no one could. I began to notice her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone.

One day I asked her why she practiced so much. Without a moment of hesitation she said, “I want to go to college. The only way I can go is to get a scholarship. I am going to play college basketball. I want to be the best. My Daddy told me if the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.” Well, I had to give it to her—she was determined. I watched her through those junior high years and into high school. Every week, she led her school team to victory.

One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting in the grass, head in her arms. I walked across the street and sat down in the cool grass beside her. Quietly I asked what was wrong. “Oh, nothing,” came a soft reply, “I am just too short.” The coach told her that at 5’5” she would probably never get to play for a top ranked team—much less offered a scholarship—so she should stop dreaming about college. She was heartbroken and I felt my own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment. I asked her if she had talked to her dad about it yet. She told me that her father said those coaches were wrong. They just did not understand the power of a dream. He told her that if she truly wanted a scholarship and that nothing could stop her except one thing — her own attitude.

The next year, as she and her team went to the Northern California Championship game, she was offered a scholarship and on the college team. She was going to get the college education that she had dreamed of.

通读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后在各题所给的A，B，C，D四个选项中，选出一个最佳答案。

I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout(付款台) earlier today．All of the checkouts were    36  , and the woman behind me was not happy! Every word that came from her mouth was a(n)    37  ! She wasn’t happy with the number of checkouts      38   ; she wasn’t happy with the amount of shopping some people had in their baskets; she wasn’t happy because this supermarket didn’t have a stand where she    39   scan her own shopping.

I listened to her    40  looking around as I loaded my stuff onto the conveyor belt (传送带)．I didn’t want    41   to do with that kind of attitude, and if ever I’d felt like letting someone go     42    of me, it wouldn’t be such a woman!

But then I    43  back．Standing beside the woman was a five-year-old girl,    44   her granddaughter．The girl’s part of the shopping    45  of some comic books.

I couldn’t    46  it．I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt,     47   a space．“After you,” I said to the woman and the girl, and    48   them to a big    49   ．The woman was delighted, and even    50   to complain ---- until she was walking away．

So,  51  bother having helped? It was because that little girl was probably taking in her granny’s complaint like a sponge(海绵)．She was learning how to    52   situations like that by listening to her granny．I’d seen that I could interrupt that complaining, and put a smile and some   53   into the middle of it．

We can all complain; we can all react    54   , but it doesn’t have to be like that．And, even if only for a few     55    , I wanted to leave that little soul with just a glimpse of another way．
