She often saw rabbits in the garden, but this rabbit was different. He had large, pink ears, like most rabbits, but unlike most rabbits, he was wearing a blue coat and had a watch in his hand. He was looking at his watch and saying, ＂Oh, dear! Oh, dear! I shall be too late!＂

＂I’ll catch him at the fence,＂ thought Alice.

But, when the rabbit came to the fence, he went down a rabbit hole.

Alice followed him. She was inside a dark hole and she was falling. E【3】 the hole was very deep or she was falling very slowly. She saw lots of things on her way down. There were cupboards on the sides of the hole, and maps and pictures. She fell and fell such a long way! She began to think she was going to fall all the way to Australia! But, after a very long time, her fall s【4】 came to an end.

Alice found herself s【5】 on dry leaves and she wasn’t hurt at all. She stood up quickly. She could see the white rabbit in the d【6】. He was still hurrying and looking at his watch.

＂I mustn’t lost him now,＂ thought Alice. She ran after him. As he turned a corner, she heard him say, ＂Oh, dear! Oh, dear! I’m so late!＂

Alice was close behind him, but when she turned the corner, the white rabbit was not there anymore. Alice looked around. She was in a long, dark, empty hall, but some lamps on the ceiling（天花板）gave it light. There were doors all around the hall. Did the rabbit go out of one of the doors?

She walked right around and tried to open each door, but she couldn’t. There weren’t any k【7】.

A young couple walked in front of me and talked (61) a 【1】 the paintings between themselves all the time. The lady did almost all the talking, but the man kept listening to her. I thought the man was very patient (62) b【2】 nobody would like to be bothered（打扰）while enjoying the paintings.

I met them several (63) t【3】 as I moved through the different rooms of the art museum. Each time I heard her talking, I moved (64) a【4】 quickly.

I was (65) p【5】 for some gifts at the museum shop when the couple walked slowly to the exit（出口）. Before they left, the man (66) t【6】 out a cane（拐杖）. Then he tapped（轻敲）his way to the coatroom to (67) g【7】 the jacket for his wife.

“He is a brave man.” The worker of the shop said. “He decided not to change his life after his eyes got hurt. Though he is (68) b【8】 now, he never gives up. He and his wife come here whenever there is a new art show.”

“But what can he get out of the art? He can’t see!” I asked.

“You are wrong. He (69) s【9】 a lot, more than you and I do.” The worker said, “His wife describes (70) e【10】 painting so he can see it in his mind.”

I fell silent. Then I realized that I learnt something about patience, courage and love that day.
