It was 20 years ago. I was driving home with my 4-year-old son. Traffic was light. I was singing quietly along 36 the song playing on the radio. I 37 at the intersection and looked both ways. The road was 38 . I slowly started to make a right turn when suddenly a car rounded the curve at high speed and came 39 at me. I stomped (猛踩) on the brakes of my car killing the engine in the process. The speeder zoomed (疾驰) past my dead car 40 me by inches without even slowing down.
41 I knew it, a stream of rude words was flying from my lips, 42 after the car and its driver. I then saw my son who was staring up at me 43 . With a red face and a(an) 44 smile I started the car, pulled back onto the road, and headed home.
Later that evening I was reading a book when I heard certain 45 words coming from my son’s bedroom. He was replaying the 46 over and over in his mind. Too 47 I realized the 48 of those words that had flown from my lips in that moment of 49 . It took a lot of talks about good language and bad language with my son to undo (消除)the 50 of that incident.
That 51 , however, did teach me just how strong words 52 be. It helped me to decide to stop swearing (咒骂) in my own life and to start using words that uplift and inspire instead. I slowly realized that language is a 53 from God and should be used to make our world better but not worse. I learned 54 that a few loving words can help a hurting heart, strengthen a 55 spirit, and lighten a heavy load. I pray then that all of your words today are full of love, joy, happiness, and light.

My husband hasn't stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It's funny now but it wasn't at the time.
Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I wanted a rest before catching the train, so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the station coffee-shop——that cheap self-service place with long tables to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place, and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next seat. It was one of those wild-looking youngsters, with dark glasses and torn clothes, and hair colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did surprise me was that he'd started to eat my chocolate!
Naturally, I was annoyed. However, to avoid trouble— and really I was rather uneasy about him—I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me closely. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could hardly believe it. Still I didn't start an argument (争论). When he took a third piece, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, "Well, I shall have the last piece." and I got it.
The boy gave me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out,"This woman's crazy!" Everybody stared. That was embarrassing enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face turned red—as red as his hair—when I realized I'd made a mistake. It wasn't my chocolate that I'd been taking. There was mine, unopened, just under my newspaper.
1. The woman telling the story _______.
[ ]
A. always went shopping with her family on Friday
B. had been very busy and needed some time to recover
C. wanted a newspaper and some chocolates to take home to her family
D. bought a newspaper and some chocolate so that she could keep a place at the table
2. When the woman came back to the table, she was surprised because __________.
[ ]
A. she wasn't sure whether the youngster was a boy or a girl
B. the youngster was dressed so strangely
C. there was already someone sitting in the next seat
D. the youngster's behavior (行为) seemed rude
3. When the woman saw the boy go on eating the chocolate, she felt _________.
[ ]
A. too tired to start an argument
B. too shy to look in the boy's direction
C. more and more disappointed at losing the chocolate
D. more and more angry with the boy
4. The woman's face turned red because _________.
[ ]
A. she realized that she had been quite wrong about the boy
B. she realized that the boy was poor and hungry
C. she saw everyone staring at her
D. she hated being shouted at
5. Which of the following is true?
[ ]
A. The woman didn't believe that the boy took a second piece of her chocolate.
B. The way the boy was dressed is common in this country.
C. The wild-looking boy was very rude to the woman.
D. The woman finds what happened in the coffee shop very interesting.
查看习题详情和答案>>下面文章有5处需要填入合适的内容。请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出最恰当的内容 。
A. Keep your expectations realistic
B. Call a friend right before the date
C. Show up on time
D. Dress comfortably
E. Make eye contact
F. Telling the truth
Many of us get nervous just at the mention of a first date, but it really doesn't have to be such a big deal if you' re prepared. That's where this article comes in. After interviewing hundreds of singles all over the U.S about their first date experienced, we've put together a list of first date dos and don' ts to help out.
1. ___________
Staring at your hands, at the table, or at the guy in the blue shirt sitting at the next table doesn't exactly say "I dig you". You might do that out of shyness on your part, but keep in mind that the person sitting in front of you might not understand that and take it personally. Of course don't stare too hard, it might look a little freaky, but make sure your eyes meet often enough to keep both of you going.
2. ____________
It' s never cool when someone keeps you waiting, so don't keep them waiting either. And NO-a fashionably late entrance will NOT make you look better. You'll just look rude and inconsiderate. If you' re feeling anxious before a date, keep in mind that your date might be feeling anxious as well, so don' t prolong their suffering any more than necessary.
3. _____________
As exciting as dating someone new can seem, you' re better off not expecting to meet Prince Charming right off the hat. If you keep your expectations realistic, good date will be a pleasant surprise and lousy date won' t matter as much.
4. _____________
By comfort, I don't mean sweatpants and laundry-day underwear. But it is a first date, so you don' t want to be overdressed either. What if your date shows up in jeans and a sweater and you' re all about sequins, silk and spike heels? Instead, you should definitely go for a nice and attractive yet comfy outfit, with comfortable shoes. If you hit it off and go walking around, you want to avoid being cold or getting blistered feet. You can easily go for a casual but sexy look and pass the first date treat with flying colors.
5. _____________
If you didn't feel any sparks flying between the two of you, tell your date gently but honestly. Nobody's feelings should have to get hurt. On the other hand, if you did feel that you clicked, forget about the supposed "dating rules" that say you should wait a few days before calling him or her again. Listen to your heart and go ahead and call if you want to. If the feeling is mutual, your date will be happy, and maybe even relieved, that you picked up the phone first.
