You see, Philip suffered from a condition called Downss Syndrome. This made him “different”, with his facial characteristics, slow responses and menta

21、l problems.One Sunday after Easter, the Sunday school teacher gathered some plastic eggs that pulled apart in the middle. The teacher gave one to each child. On that beautiful spring day, the children were to go out and discover for themselves some symbol of “new life” and place it inside the plasti

22、c eggs.After the children returned to the classroom, the teacher opened their eggs one by one, asking each child to explain that symbol of “new life”. The first opened egg contained a flower. Everyone cheered. In another one was a butterfly.When the teacher opened the last egg, it was empty. “Thats

23、stupid,” said someone. The teacher felt a pull at his shirt. It was Philip. Looking up, Philip said, “Its mine. I did it. Its empty.

Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt b

28、y this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower

29、 more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life.

The underlined words

36、“generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean _. A. strict with time B. serious with timeC. careful with time D. willing to spend time50.
