With so many 37 to pay, I was wondering what was going to happen to my family.I got off the bus when I heard piano music and singing rising above the noise of the 38 . I walked a bit slower, trying to find out where it was coming from. Through the 39 I saw a young lady sitting at a piano with a box next to her.She was singing songs about love and her sweet voice 40 me a bit. Then I stood there watching her playing, thinking that it must take 41 to perform on her own in front of hundreds of people she didnt know.She might have felt my 42 for she occasionally looked in my direction.By now I was telling myself that I could at least tell her how good she sounded. I walked 43 and put some money in her box and she expressed her thanks with a smile on her face.I asked her 44 , “Why are you playing the piano in the middle of this crowded place?”She explained to me that she sees so many 45 people in the world that she is trying to relieve the pain by 46 motivational(激励的)music.Instead of continuing my way home, I said to her, “I have been going through a 47 time lately, but youve made me 48 again.”“Im happy that I could be 49 to you,” she replied. “Why are you so sad?”I told her my story and said, “Im not so 50 about what to do.”“You see, heres the 51 ,” she responded. “When you were walking, your head was down.” She looked me in the eyes and went on, “Dont look defeated, because 52 comes in different ways and if your head is down you might never see it. You should 53 more lift your head up.”I was really 54 by what she said!

I never found enough to make a rich strike. But I did discover a beautiful part of the country called Stanislau. Like Heaven on Earth, it had bright green hills and deep forests where soft winds touched the trees. By the time I arrived, the charming paradise had been deserted because miners good luck didnt last.Then, I realized I was not alone after all.A man was smiling at me as he stood in front of his little house. Its front yard was full of blue and yellow flowers. White curtains hung from the windows and floated in the soft summer wind.Still smiling, the man invited me inside. My spirit seemed to come to life again. I saw a bright rug(地毯) on the shining wooden floor. And on little tables there were seashells, books and china vases full of flowers. A woman had made this house into a home. The joy in my heart showed on my face. The man read my thoughts. “All her work.” He said affectionately, “Nothing here hasnt felt the touch of her hand.”One picture on the wall was not hanging straight. He went to fix it. He stepped back several times to make sure the picture was straight. Then he gave it a gentle touch. “She always does that,” he explained, “It is like the finishing pat a mother gives her childs hair after she has brushed it. I dont know why I do it. I just do it.”As he talked, I went to a little black-walnut shelf that held a small picture of the most beautiful creature I had ever seen. There was a sweetness and softness in the womans expression. The man stared at the picture. “Nineteen her last birthday. That was the day we married. When you see her.ah, just wait until you meet her!” “Where is she now?” I asked. “Oh, she is away visiting her parents. This is Wednesday,” he said slowly. “She will be back on Saturday, in the evening.”That night, I stayed. The man told me his name was Henry.Thursday evening we had two visitors, Tom and Joe. “We just drop over to ask when little madam is coming home. Any news from her?” “Oh yes,” the man replied. “A letter.” He took a yellowed letter out of his wallet and read it. It was full of loving messages. While reading, he glimpsed his friends and cried out, “Oh no, you are doing it again, Tom! Take your hands away and let me see your eyes. Im going to tell her this time!” “No, you mustnt do that, Henry,” the grey-haired miner said. “I am getting old. And any little sorrow makes me cry. Lord, we miss her so.”Saturday finally came.I was glad to see his two friends, Tom and Joe, with guitars, coming down the road as the sun began to set. They put the flowers they brought in vases and began to play some fast and lively songs.Henrys friends kept giving him glasses of whiskey. When I reached for one of the two remaining glasses, Tom stopped my arm. “Drop that! Take the other.” he whispered. I did so. Henry was served last. He had hardly swallowed his drink when the clock struck midnight. His face grew paler and paler. “Boys,” he said, “I am sick with fear. Help! I want to lie down.” Henry was asleep almost before the words were out of his mouth.In a moment, those handy men had his clothes off and tucked him into his bed. They seemed to be getting ready to leave. So I said, “Please dont go, gentlemen. She wont know me. I am a stranger.” They glanced at each other. Then Joe said, “She? Poor thing, shes been dead nineteen years!” “Dead?” I whispered. “That or worse.” he said.“She went to see her folks half a year after she got married. On her way back, on a Saturday evening in June, when she was almost here, the Indians captured her. Shes never been heard of since. Henry went insane. He thinks she is still alive. When June comes, he thinks she has gone on her trip to see her parents. Then he begins to wait for her to come back. We drop in here, three days before shes due, to encourage him up and listen to him read the letter. On Saturday we all come and get everything ready for a dance. Weve done it for nineteen years. The first Saturday there were twenty-seven of us, but only two now. We drug him to sleep through the night. Then hes all right for another year.”The two old men opened the door and disappeared into the darkness of Stanislau.【小题1】You can sense the existence of a woman from the following sentences EXCEPT “_”.A.
