I was very excited as I stood in line, waiting to receive my high school diploma. I looked around at the graduating class of our small school and wondered how we had grown up so fast. After that weekend we would go our separate ways. Many planned on attending college far away as I did. Others had jobs lined up and few were thinking about marriage. Right in front of me was a friend Id known for six years; we had been on many adventures together. He laughed, looking a little smug(洋洋得意的). He and several other students had played one last trick before they graduated: The night before, they had secretly climbed into the principals(校长）home through the window and used rolls of toilet paper to decorate his house and yard. I eyed the principal on the stage. He gave no sign that anything was wrong.We moved slowly up in line. My friend walked across the stage and received his diploma. Then my name was called. I took a deep breath, nervously climbed the steps, crossed the stage under the hot lights and stopped in front of the principal. He gave me a big smile, shook my hand and handed me my diploma. I couldnt wait to open the diploma case and find my name, confirming that I had graduated. However, when my friend opened his case, we all burst out laughing. Instead of a diploma, a single square of toilet paper was placed inside.Our high school principal had a great sense of humor and took this opportunity to play a trick back on the boys. I thought they were required to clean his house and yard, but they got off easily. They were allowed to graduate.Sometimes we get lucky when we do something wrong. However, sometimes we dont. I often wonder how those who do wrong things get rid of trouble. We have decisions to make throughout our lives. The surest way to stay out of trouble is to avoid it in the first place.25. What would the writer do after graduating from high school?A. To get married.B. To bee a principal.C. To continue his study.D. To find a regular job.26. Why did the writers friend seem happy before receiving his diploma?A. Nobody had discovered his bad behavior.B. He would graduate with great honors.C. He was praised by the principal for his progress.D. He succeeded in making fun of the principal.27. How did the authors friend feel the moment he opened his diploma case?A. AllergicB. Embarrassed.C. Disappointed.D. Grateful28. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Keeping Away From Wrong ChoicesB. Taking Every Opportunity in LifeC. Avoiding Making One Mistake TwiceD.
