B
One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem — inability to read.
In the library, I found my way into the “Children's Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.
There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.
Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very sl owly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated fr om his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.
My mother's call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.
I never told my mother about my “miraculous” (奇迹般地) experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Maybe you’re looking for love. 【1】 Regardless, I’m here to tell you changing our opinions on love in three essential ways:

1. Instead of searching for that one special loving relationship, bring as much love as you can into all your relationships.

You may have many soul mates (知音) in a lifetime and those relationships may not last forever. Your friendships may last longer than your marriage. And that is OK. 【2】 The trick is making the space available.

【3】

We are all artists of love, but too many people refuse to pick up a paintbrush because they’re waiting to find the right picture to paint. We can only realize the potential that we all have to love if we actually do something about it.

【4】 Love can show up in a million different ways in a million different forms, which means we have a million choices every day to bring love into our lives, or not. My advice: choose love.

3. Try falling in love not just with people, but also with places, things and activities.

Fall in love with the bus driver transporting you safely home. Fall in love with the streetlamp that keeps your home secure at night. Fall in love with the way the morning sunlight travels through the trees. 【5】

Your existence is such an unbelievably fantastic event in life that the best and only real option is to become the most tender-hearted, loving and kind individual you can possibly be.

A. Fall in love with your passions.

B. Maybe youre unsure what love is.

C. Love expands to fill the space available.

D. Maybe you wonder how and where to find it.

E. Instead of seeing love as a force that is out of your control, see it as an art and a practice.

F. We experience love as kindness, giving, forgiveness, compassion, peace, joy and acceptance.

G. Instead of regarding love a must that is beyond you, consider it as a chance that calls on you.
