One night, I was sitting in my kitchen half listening as my 15-year-old brother Tommy fought with my 12-year-old brother Kevin. I didn’t pay attention when Kevin rushed up the stairs with the hurt on his face.
About 20minutes later, as I was walking upstairs I heard Kevin crying inside the ____. I knocked on the door and asked, “Hey Kev, do you want to talk?” No answer. I tried again, “Hey, why don’t you come out of there?” Again, no answer. So I took a stack of（一堆） cards and a pencil and wrote, “If you don’t want to ______, we can write notes to each other.”
An hour later I was _______ sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of cards in front of me. One was blank(空白的) and the other was cards _____Kevin on which he had translated all his unpleasant feelings into words for me.______ I read one of Kevin’s notes, tears came to my eyes. It said, “______ in this family cares about me, I’m not clever. Tommy thinks I’m a fool and Dad wishes he had the other Kevin as a kid because he’s better at basketball. And you’re never around to even ___ me.”
Tears came to my eyes as I wrote back to him. It was ______what he had said about me. I wrote back, “You know Kev, I really do love you and I’m sorry I don’t always show it to you. I am here for you and you are _____ in this family.”
There was no answer for a while, but then I heard a tearing sound coming from inside the bathroom. Kevin, who had _____ cards wrote on a torn-up(撕毁的) paper cup, “Thanks.”
I wrote back “For what?” It returned to me with “loving me” written on it. Since then, I try my best to ____ half notice my family members any more. Kevin and I have a closer _____ now, and sometimes when one of us notices that the other is upset we’ll smile and say “Write it on a paper cup.”

| Once there was a clever farmer. Though he was poor, he decided one day to take the king a roast goose (烤鹅) as a present. He had not had 1 to eat that day, and soon the 2 of the roast goose became too much for him as (当…时) he 3 it to the king, so he ate one of its legs. When he came before the king and gave him the goose, the king 4 saw that it had only one leg. Now, the king 5 was born with one bad leg, so he had never been able to 6 properly (正常地). When he saw the goose with only one leg, he thought the farmer had 7 this to laugh at him. Of course he was very 8 . The farmer was told that if anybody laughed at the king, he would be 9 at once. "Where is 10 leg of the goose?" the king asked. "All the geese (goose的复数) in this 11 of the country have one leg only," the farmer answered. "Do you think I'm a fool (傻子)?" the king shouted. " 12 ," said the farmer, "if you look out of the window, you will see geese with one leg by the 13 ." The king looked, and there the geese were 14 on one leg beside the water. The king at once told one of his men to 15 them with a big stick, and of course, they 16 their other legs and ran away. "There," said the king. "You were lying (说谎). That 17 that the geese here have two legs, like all other 18 in the country." "But it doesn't show anything," answered the farmer, "if your men threw a big stick like that at me, I would grow two 19 legs myself to help me to run away 20 ." |
