It was 4 o’clock in the morning on June 9, 2003 when I received the phone call. “This is the emergency room calling and your son was just  21  in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We have called for a(n)  22  and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.” Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was  23  .

The doctor described the  24  , which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment. When they  25  the charcoal(木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much petrol. The flames  26  my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head.

27  , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and  28  him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in  29  to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars.

After he  30  from the treatments, the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery(整容) for 6 months  31  it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling. So he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns.

When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch, very  32  scar on her arm, “Nancy, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It does not mean they will not  33  it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”

I  34  this wisdom on to my son. He kept my advice in  35  and returned to school with his head held high--glad he was alive.

By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars didn’t  36  , so he made the  37  to give up any plastic surgery.

We all have “scars” that we believe  38  people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.

But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same  39  standards. Put your imperfections(缺点;瑕疵) out of your mind and concentrate on what you value  40  yourself, and your beauty will shine through.

I sometimes wonder if old Finchley has the right personality to be a research scientist. He keeps asking when he’ll be coming back. After all, it was his own fault. Nobody tries out what has just been invented on themselves any more but Finchley. Well, he must have pumped about a thousand c. c. s into himself before I noticed he was clearly becoming smaller.

  It was funny watching him, because his clothes remained the same in size. They simply piled up around him so that he looked like a small boy in his father’s clothes. But he kept getting smaller and smaller. As my colleague Dawson and I watched him, he disappeared! All we could see was Finchley’s clothes on the floor. They looked so strange, because the lab coat was on top, shirt and trousers inside and, I suppose, underclothes inside again. It gave me a strange feeling, and I think Dawson was a bit shaken, too.

  Dawson was sitting on his chair in front of a microscope he’d been using to examine a family of mites(螨虫). He looked through the scope kind of absently again, and was nearly scared to lose awareness when he found old Finchley waving back from the other end.

  It seems as if Finchley had taken a free ride on a dust mite and landed on the land of the mite family. Of course, we didn’t know till Finchley told us later. But anyhow, as I said, Dawson nearly passed out. He jumped off his chair and pointed at the microscope, to shocked to speak.

1.Finchley disappeared because ________.

 A. he took something poisonous

 B. he was changed into a dust mite

 C. his father’s clothes totally covered him up

 D. what he and his colleagues invented resulted in his disappearace

2. It frightened Dawson to see Finchley _______.

 A. got into his scope by accident          B. was waving through his telescope

 C. suddenly got lost in his clothes        D. gradually disappeared in the lab

3. It can be inferred that Finchley, Dawson and the writer have possibly invented _____.

 A. some kind of medicine               B. a new powerful microscope

 C. a machine to make people small          D. a new way to make a culture of mite

4. It can probably be concluded that Finchley ________.

 A. passed out there and then               B. is not fit to be a scientist

 C. is a devoted scientist                  D. will remain tiny all the time

At first all films were in black and white, but in 1932 the first color film was made. It proved as unpopular as making films had done in the late 1920’s. It was not until 1938 that a full length color film was made, and the success of this film made producers(制片人) everywhere change from black and white to color. This first full-length color film was translated (翻译)into ten different languages and made Hollywood(好莱坞)the main center( 中心)of film industry(电影业)

In the early days of the cinema, other countries had also film industries. Very good films were made in Sweden, Britain, Russia and France. However, because Holleywood had so much money to spend, it kept its position as the world’s most important film center. Film actors went to America because they knew they could get a lot of money for every film they made. In 1918 Charlie Chaplin (查理·卓别林)received $5 each day.

However, life was not always easy for the film actors. Newspapermen followed them everywhere, and after Charlie Chapine married for the fourth time he became so unpopular with the American public that he had to leave the country and live in Europe.
