13.Robby was 10for his first piano lesson in my class.Much as he tried,he (41)A even the basic rhythm.However,he dutifully reviewed the pieces that I required.
Over the months he tried and tried while I (42)D and encouraged him.At the end of each lesson he'd always say,"My mom's going to hear me play some day."(43)B it seemed hopeless.
I only knew his mother from a (44)C as she waited in her aged car to pick him up.Then one day Robby stopped coming.I was secretly (45)A that he stopped because of his lack of ability.
Weeks later I informed the students,including Robby,of the coming recital(独奏).To my
(46)C,Robby asked me if he could be included.I told him he really did not qualify,because he had (47)D out.He said his mom had been sick and unable to take him to lessons but he was still (48)B
"I've just got to play!"he (49)A.Something inside me let me allow him to.
Then came the recital night.The gym was (50)C with parents.I put Robby up last,thinking that I could (51)D his poor performance through my"curtain closer (谢幕)."
The recital went off smoothly.Then Robby came up on stage.His clothes were wrinkled and his hair was (52)A."Why didn't his mother at least make him comb his hair for this special night?"I thought.
Robby pulled out the piano bench and began.I was not (53)B for what I heard next.His fingers were(54)C on the keys.Never had I heard Mozart played so well by people of his age.After he ended,everyone was (55)D their feet in wild applause.
In (56)A I ran up on stage and put my arms around Robby."I've never heard you play like that,Robby!How did you (57)B it?"
Robby explained,"Well,Miss Hondorf…remember I told you my mom was sick?(58)B
she had cancer and passed away yesterday.She was born deaf,so tonight she could hear me play in heaven.I wanted to make it special."
There wasn't a (59)D eye in the house.That night I felt he was the teacher and I was the pupil,for it was he who taught me the meaning of perseverance and (60)C.

Right about the time Bill took his"seat",an elderly man began slowly making his way (51)A the aisle.He was in his eighties with silver gray hair.He was a godly(神圣的) man-elegant and dignified.He walked with a stick and,as he neared the boy,church members thought,"How can you expect a man of his age and background to(52)B some college kid on the floor?''

11.When I was eighteen,I couldn't wait to get my first job,which meant I made the first step toward adulthood.
But it was difficult to get a work permit.One day I was dropped off by my parents at the(41)C,where applicants took their physical tests for work permits.Although I had night blindness,my vision was clearer during the day,which helped me walk (42)A by myself.Then the doctor began the (43)B.He looked into my eyes with a bright light."I suggest your parents take you to an eye specialist,"he said,"I(44)A you have a retinal(视网膜) disease.If you do,you'll never(45)D a day in your life…"
My parents did take me to specialists.After much time and money spent seeking an(46)A result,it was determined that I had an eye disease that slowly (47)B a person of sight.But still,during daylight,I could walk without (48)C.I could read,but not for hours.My eyes began to (49)D and words slipped off the page when I read more than a few pages.However,no matter how tired my eyes became,I never gave up reading.I knew the (50)B of great writers as well as the most popular music stars.Their words were powerful,(51)D encouraged me to try writing.Soon writing brought me a lot of (52)A each time I completed a paper.
Then an important phone call from an editor changed my life.An article I(53)B appeared in a local newspaper.The newspaper,to my(54)B,continued to print my work.Next,a book series published several of my essays.I got interested in writing and (55)B up with each acceptance.On the pages,readers never knew of my blindness(56)B I chose to present it.For me,finding my voice through writing gave me the pride and satisfaction I(57)A so many years ago.Now,I have numerous essays and articles in(58)D.
Should I be thanking that misguided doctor?By falsely predicting that I could never work a day,he fueled my motivation into (59)D.He set the bar too (60)A and focused on what I wouldn't be able to do.Yet I proved what I could do.

10.When I was 13my only purpose was to become the star on our football team.That meant (41)B Miller King,who was the best(42)D at our school.
Football season started in September and all summer long I worked out.I carried my football everywhere for (43)A.
Just before September,Miller was struck by a car and lost his right arm.I went to see him after he came back from (44)C.He looked very(45)A,but he didn't cry.
That season,I (46)B all of Miller's records while he (47)D the home games from the bench.We went 10-1and I was named most valuable player,(48)C I often had crazy dreams in which I was to blame for Miller's (49)C.
One afternoon,I was crossing the field to go home and saw Miller (50)A going over a fence-which wasn't (51)B to climb if you had both arms.I'm sure I was the last person in the world he wanted to accept (52)C from.But even that challenge he accepted.I(53)B him move slowly over the fence.When we were finally(54)D on the other side,he said to me,"You know,I didn't tell you this during the season,but you did(55)A.Thank you for filling in for (56)C."
His words freed me from my bad(57)D.I thought to myself,how even without an arm he was more of a leader.Damaged but not defeated,he was (58)A ahead of me.I was right to have (59)D him.From that day on,I grew(60)B and a little more real.

9.Last Christmas,I didn't get a single Christmas present.This wasn't a(41)C I had asked for it.As early as a week before Christmas,I had decided that instead of (42)B presents,I wanted to buy presents for the (43)D in the local orphanage (孤儿院).
When I told my family my plans,there was a lot of(44)A.On Christmas Day,however,the (45)C shocked me.
As I knocked on the door of the orphanage that morning.I fell (46)D and unprepared for what was coming.I almost (47)B,but then a woman opened the door and (48)B as she led me in.
I'd heard a lot about how orphanages were (49)C built but the reality was still a shock.I instantly (50)A it.There were no smiles.It felt a bit like being in a huge house filled with forgotten,(51)A kids.
I was taken to a room full of children,and was suddenly (52)B at how empty it felt.I wanted to make these children smile.I felt (53)D,and I was.
But then,as my presents were (54)D,the atmosphere in the room changed.I could see the (55)C in the eyes of the children.My feeling of powerlessness (56)C.A little girl ran up to me and (57)A my legs.I carried a little boy in my arms and he kissed me on the nose before lying (58)B against my shoulder,which moved me to tears.
For many of us,Christmas is the best time of the year.The time I spent in the orphanage taught me that the (59)A I felt at Christmases should not be taken for granted.It taught me to (60)D everything that was mine.

7.One evening I was resting in a cafe.I (21)B a pair of newly bought white leather shoes,which were rather expensive.Then a boy came to me.He was in a(n) (22)B shirt,looking pale and about eleven.No sooner had I begun to speak than he opened the (23)C i n his hand and took out the tools of shoe-polishing.He (24)B down,took off my leather shoes,and began to shine them.He was busy doing his work (25)A heavy rain began to pour down.People rushed to the café for (26)A from the rain.More and more people crowded (27)C and gradually separated the boy from me.
