The day finally came, when I had to leave the warm home where I’d grown up. I ran to the back yard, as tears came up from my heart. Suddenly I 36 a hand rest on my shoulder. I looked up to 37 my grandfather. “It isn’t 38 , is it, Billy?” he said softly.
He gently 39 my hand in his, and then we walked, hand in hand, to the front yard, 40 a huge red rose-bush sat alone.
“What do you see here, Billy?” he asked. I looked at the flowers, not knowing 41 to say, and then answered, “I see something soft and 42 , grandpa.”
He pulled me 43 . “It isn't just the roses that are beautiful, Billy. It’s that special place in your heart that makes them so.” “Billy, I 44 these roses when my first son was born. It was my 45 of saying ‘thank you’ to God. I 46 to watch him pick roses for his mother. Then, as a young man of only 20, a terrible war robbed him of his life.” Grandpa slowly stood up. “Never say good-bye, Billy. Never 47 to the sadness and the loneliness. Instead, I want you to remember the joy and the 48 when you first said hello to a friend.”
A year later, my grandpa became very 49 .Then all members of the family
were 50 back, and I returned to the old house. When it came to my 51 , I took his hand as 52 as he had once taken mine.
“Hello, grandpa,” I 53 .His eyes slowly opened and said, “Hello, my friend.” With a brief 54 he died. Suddenly, and truly, I knew what he had 55 about never saying good-bye — about refusing to give in to sadness.

阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案。
It isn't strictly true that one half of the world is rich and the other half is poor. It's one third that is very rich and two-thirds that are very poor.
People in the rich countries don't realize the great difference between them and those in the poorer countries. A very simple example is that a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in the poorer countries. A fisherman in south America may be catching fish which is processed (加工) into pet food, and his own children are not getting enough to eat for their bodies to develop properly.
Although a lot of the world's natural resources like oil come from these poorer countries, people in the richer countries are probably using sixty times as much of these resources as a person in Asia or Africa. And it's the richer countries that decide what kind of prices they are ready to pay for these resources. And the prices the richer countries get for their own exports (出口货), however, are always rising. So they are getting richer and richer and the poorer countries are getting poorer.
