完形填空321in a class i teach for adults, i recently did the “unpardonable.” i gave the class homework!the assignment (任务) was to “go to someone you love 36 the next week and tell them you love them. it 37 to be someone you have never 38 those words to before or at least havent shared those words with for a long time.” that doesnt 39 like a very tough assignment, 40 you stop to realize that most of the men were over 35 and were 41 in the generation of men that were taught that expressing emotions is not “macho (男子汉气概的).” showing feelings or crying (heaven forbid!) was just not done 42 this was a very threatening assignment for some.at the 43 of our next class, i asked if someone wanted to 44 what happened when they told someone they loved them. i fully expected one of the 45 to volunteer, as was usually the 46 , but on this evening one of the men raised his hand. he appeared quite moved and a bit 47 . as he unfolded out of his chair, he began by saying, “dennis. i was quite 48 with you last week when you gave us the assignment. i didnt feel that i had 49 to say those words to and 50 , who were you to tell me to do something that personal? but as i began driving home my conscience (良知) started talking to me. it was telling me that i 51 exactly who i needed to say i love you to. you see, five years ago, my father and i had a heated 52 and really never resolved it since that one. we 53 seeing each other unless we absolutely had to at christmas or other family gatherings. but 54 then, we hardly spoke to each other. so last. tuesday 55 i got home, i had convinced myself. i was going to tell my father i loved him.”36aafterbbeforecfordwithin37ahas tobought tochad betterdcan38atoldbsaidctalkeddspoken39alookbhearclistendsound40awhenbuntilcthatdunless41abornbgrowncraiseddrisen42aandbbutcsodfor43abeginningbendcmiddledstating44aannouncebsharecanswerdask45amenbadultscstudentsdwomen46acasebthingcstorydexperience47aafraidbshakencterribledworried48ahappybpleasedcangrydsatisfied49aeverybodybnobodycsomeonedanyone50aelsebexceptcbesidedbesides51athoughtbconsideredcknewdguessed52adisagreementbencouragementcdisappointmentddiscouragement 53aimaginedbriskedcavoideddescaped54astillbevencjustdonly55aby the timebat the timecfor the timedduring the time2 there are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. you will find many people 36 to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you dont), but always remember that the life you 37 is yours and nobody elses. its important to decide for yourself whats important to you and what you want before you 38 others. because while there will be times 39 outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely 40 . the only way to really evaluate other folks advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are 41 . once youve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision 42 anyway.you were 43 with the ability to decide what is and what isnt in your best interest. most of the time, you will make the right decision and 44 the appropriate actions, and in thinking for yourself, you will become far more successful than if you had gone against your own 45 .early on in my investment career, i made the mistake of 46 a few important business decisions on colleagues opinions instead of conducting the 47 necessary to make a wise decision. it wasnt due to 48 on my part; no one could ever accuse me of that. but, being 49 to wall street, i intended to assume that my more senior 50 knew more than i did, and so i 51 too much significance to their opinions.you know what happened? each of those investments ended in 52 . eventually i stopped allowing myself to be influenced by 53 and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. it took me until i was almost 30 years old to 54 thisits never too late for a person to change his approach both to 55 and to life. 36. a. easyb. readyc. unwillingd. hard37. a. leadb. lendc. taked. earn38. a. look atb. pick upc. turn tod. learn from39. a. thatb. sincec. whend. while40. a. uselessb. usefulc. pricelessd. clever41. a. gettingb. makingc. sufferingd. facing42. a. on one handb. on your ownc. on the wholed. on all sides43. a. bornb. tiredc. satisfiedd. covered44. a. enjoyb. stepc. pland. take45. a. assumptionb. judgmentc. conditiond. fortune46. a. basingb. dependingc. relyingd. focusing47. a. researchb. searchc. resourcesd. activity48. a. povertyb. lazinessc. feard. diligence49. a. usedb. accustomedc. newd. old50. a. studentsb. brothersc. colleaguesd. classmates51. a. owedb. paidc. gaved. held52. a. disasterb. progressc. failured. success53. a. eitherb. anotherc. eachd. others54. a. thinkb. rememberc. realized. recall55. a. paymentb. dreamsc. happinessd. businessi 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 meats type or the soups 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, “its terrible!”terrible or beautiful? i dont 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 finished3a. worryb. attentionc. delight d. pleasure4a. buyb. fetchc. cook d. leave5a. theirb. a newc. the same d. a simple6a. wayb. joyc. trouble d. importance7a. hardb. dailyc. goodd. new8a. expressionsb. flowersc. talkd. smile9a. meatb. fishc. soupd. egg10a. praisedb. pleasedc. goodd. surprised11a. happilyb. excitedlyc. surprisedly d. worriedly12a. bonesb. skinsc. tailsd. heads13a. dob. willc. want tod. should14a. tailb. headc. soupd. flesh15a. factb. chinac. usad. the west16a. enjoyingb. looking atc. playing withd. cooking17a. realb. excitingc. interesting d. easyi stepped into my hotel room which was surrounded by a(n) 26 king-size bed, flanked(两侧有)by overstuffed armchairs. “wow,” i thought to myself. “nice place.”i 27 hotels. i love to enter a clean room, look out the window, or walk out in the morning 28 that each afternoon when i return, someone else will have made the bed.the 29 is that unless alison travels with me, i never sleep well in hotels. i miss my family. even though linus and camille, aged 4 and almost 2, find a way to interrupt even the 30 nights sleep at home, still, id rather be with them.im deeply 31 by the parents who wake up too late with the realization: “my children grew up too 32 . in the busy and noisy career and life, i 33 their childhood.”a hundred years from now, nobody will remember the car you drove or the large house you lived. the world might 34 greatly however, based on your 35 on the life of a small child. your life will most certainly improve, if you pay attention to your important 36 , and make the choice to put her or him first. what could you do today to let your loved ones know how much they 37 to you?
