17.When times become difficult(and you know they sometimes will),remember a moment in your life that was filled with joy and happiness.
A lovely little girl was holding two apples with both hands.Her mum came in and (41)B asked her little daughter with a smile:"my sweetie,could you give your mum one of your two apples?"The girl looked (42)Aat her mum for some seconds,then she suddenly took a quick (43)Con one apple,and then quickly on the other.

Those who often text you,do so not because they have (55)B better to do but because you are in their heart.

13.A Very Special Special Olympian
The professor was searching for student volunteers in the lecture room for a Special Olympics event.As the sign-up sheet went up and down the rows,I started to come up with my(36)D.Maybe it was the distance to the college where the event was to take place,or the early hour that (37)C had to report for duty.Whatever the reasons that made me hesitate,I am thankful to this day that I (38)B up volunteering.If I had missed the event,I would have missed one of the most unforgettable moments that I have ever (39)C.
I arrived at the volunteer tent bright and early.My task was (40)A.I was to stand at the finish line only and wait until the event was over and then take the (41)C to the announcing booth(公告处).Standing at the finish line,I was able to witness many amazing efforts and close races.I was most impressed by the effort each athlete put into his or her (42)B.What also impressed me was the sincere (43)A each athlete expressed while participating though sometimes the joy of participating in a sporting event can get (44)D in the fierce competition of winning and losing.
Then an amazing moment happened right before my eyes.A group of athletes were (45)C
up to run a short race.One of them was in a wheelchair,a little girl with a (46)A smile,wearing bright bows in her hair.Her smile filled the stadium that day.I couldn't help but smile back at her.
The gun sounded.They were off.Runners sped up in the (47)B with all their might.My eyes(48)D for the little girl with the bright bows.There she was,pumping her arms with all the(49)C she had.Her efforts were getting little result,but that did not stop her.I noticed as she got closer that she also had an injured arm.But that did not stop this bright star.The race was long over (50)A the young athlete kept pumping her arms.As she finally (51)B the finish line,the noise of the crowd was thunderous.There I stood(52)A,with tears falling down my cheeks.
After all these years,I can still hear those cheers.I wish I could thank that remarkable athlete for what her efforts (53)D this unmotivated college guy.I grew up a lot that day because of the (54)B of that little girl in the wheelchair.I was (55)D that day of a poem from a book that states,"Whatever you do,do it with all your might."

11.Two Candles
Tom was a middle-aged leather trader whose repeated failure in career made him a depressed man,often (36)A that he had been cheated by others.One day he told his wife he was so (37)B with the city that he had to leave.
So his family moved to another city.It was the evening of a weekend.When Tom and his wife were busily (38)D up their new home,the light (39)C went out.They had to stop work.Tom was regretful to have forgotten to bring along candles and had to wait(40)D in a low mood.Just then he heard slight,hesitant (41)C on his door that sounded clear in the (42)B night.
"Who's it?"he wondered,since Tom was a (43)A to this city.And this was the moment he especially hated to be (44)B,so he went to the door and opened it (45)C.At the door was a little girl,shyly asking,"Sir,do you have candles?I'm your neighbor.""No,"answered Tom in anger and shut the door (46)D."What a nuisance (讨厌鬼)!"He complained over it with his wife."No sooner had we settled down than the neighbor came to (47)D things."
After a while,the door was knocked again.He opened it and found the same girl outside.(48)B this time she was (49)A two candles,saying,"My grandma told me the new neighbor downstairs might need candles.She (50)C me here to give you these."Tom was very (51)D by what he saw.When he became fully aware,he said,"Thank you and your grandmother.God bless you!"
At that moment he suddenly realized what caused his (52)A in life.It was his(53)B and harshness (刻薄) with other people.The person who had cheated him in life was (54)C nobody else but himself,for his life had been darkened by his unsympathetic (55)A.
