I spent two months with an American family last year when I studied in America.

It is said, “The best house is in America, the best wife is in Japan, and the best food is in China.” So I took pride (自豪)and __21__ to __22__ “the best food” for my American family. Each day, regardless of my poor skill of cooking, I would do something in __23__ way: changing the dishes’ colour, the meat’s type or the soup’s style. (风味)Thus, my American friends could discover the __24__ of eating Chinese food. Because of my “__25__” job, I was often rewarded (奖励) by their __26__ of appreciation (感激)such as “very delicious”, “excellent”, etc.

But the joke was here: Yesterday, I cooked Sichuan style __27__ for dinner. I was __28__ at my achievement.(成就)

When all the family members arrived at the table, they first looked __29__ at the fish, then looked at me. “Why do all the fish have their __30__?” they asked, “It’s terrible!”

Terrible or beautiful? I don’t know. But I __31_ know that fish heads are delicious. The __32__ is the best part of fish; in __33__ only the respectable (受敬重的)guest can have the special honour of __34__ it.

Another __35__ thing is: The American friends often said to me “__36__” as they __37__ fruits or other things. According to Chinese tradition I would simply smile in answer to their kindness __38__ actually helping myself to any of the food. __39__, I said “help yourself” to them whenever I brought home fruits. Dear me, no matter how much or how often I brought home food, as long as it was nice to their taste, they __40__ hesitated (犹豫)to use their hands to “help themselves” until all was finished

完形填空。
     I hated math and was really bad at it when I was young, so I found others to allow me to copy their work.
Even though they knew they were   1   me, there were lots of people who were glad to"help". In this way, I 
  2   a few tests.
     But one day something   3   happened. Our teacher changed our   4   for the exam and I was sitting beside
a boy that I seldom   5   with before. As I could only answer a question or two, I had to turn to him   6   I didn't want to have a sea of red crosses (叉号) in my paper.
     I signaled (示意) to him and managed to   7   his attention. When he asked me what I wanted, I   8   asked
him for the answers. To my surprise, he   9   without any hesitation (犹豫). Of course, I was really   10   at his behavior and thought badly of him.
     After the test he   11   me, telling me that I could get good grades in math and that all I needed was to put
more  12   into studying the subject. I was still   13   with him, but I couldn't get his words out of my mind.
     From that day on, I began to   14   more time to my math. Slowly, the subject I   15   hated so much turned
into such an interesting thing. I started to pass my math tests with my own   16   . Time passed and I was
getting many As in my math even till my higher studies.
     Till today, I am still   17   to my friend who didn' t allow me to copy his work. He   18   if he provided me
with the "help" during the test, there would be no   19   for me to shine. So let others shine and don' t ever rob (掠夺) others of their opportunity to show their   20   .
