    I’ve always had strong opinions of how love should be expressed, but others had their own ways of showing care.
    What I   36  most about visiting my boyfriend’s parents is the loud tick of the clock in the dining room as we   37  ate our meal. With so little conversation I was quick to   38 his family as cold. When we got into the   39   to go home, his father suddenly appeared. 40  , he began to wash his son’s windscreen. I could feel he was a caring man through the glass.
    I learned another lesson about love a few years later. My father often  41  me early in the morning. “Buy Xerox. It’s a good sharp price,” he might say when I answered the phone. No pleasant  42 or inquiry about my life, just financial instructions. This manner of his  43 me and we often quarreled. But one day, I thought about my father’s success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his  44   morning calls. The next time he called and told me to buy a stock, I  45  him.
    When my social style has conflicted with that of my friends, I’ve often felt   46 . For example, I always return phone calls  47  and regularly contact with my friends. I expect the same from them. I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails. I rushed to the  48  : She wasn’t a good friend! My anger  49   as the holidays approached. But then she came to a gathering I  50 and handed me a beautiful dress I had fallen in love with when we did some window-shopping the previous month. I was  51   at her thoughtfulness, and regretful for how I’d considered her to be  52  . Clearly I needed to change my expectations of friends.
    Far too often, I ignored their  53   expressions, eagerly expecting them to do things in my  54 . Over the years, however, I’ve learned to  55  other persons, love signs.

    本文为夹叙夹议文。表达关爱的方式因人而异，作者起初总是以自己跌标准和方式评价别人关爱与否，由此产生了一系列的误解和烦恼。生活中一次次的经历最终让她明白我们要互相理解，因为表达关爱的方式因人而异。
    小题1:根据上下文得知作者起初以自己的方式评价别人的爱，以为别人的方式都不正确、不合理，包括男朋友父母的、自己父亲的和朋友的，因此此处提到男朋友父母的表达方式应为作者起初不欣赏和不喜欢的，故排除B、C、D三项。句意为：“对于拜访我男朋友的父母，我记忆(remember)最多的是起居室闹钟的滴答声。”
    小题1:由后面的“With so little conversation”可知，我们吃饭时很少说话，故用silently。
    小题1:regard…as…意为“把……看作／当作……”。由于方式不一样，作者把男朋友家人的少言寡语当成冷漠。
    小题1:由后文父亲为儿子“wash windscreen”可知他们是开车回去的，故选C项。
    小题1:punctually“准时地”；carefully“细心地，耐心地”；proudly“自豪地”；coldly“冷漠地”。作者原来以为男朋友父亲很冷漠，而现在却感受到了他的caring“有爱心的，关爱人的”，能够改变其看法的应该是细心地(carefully)擦车这一动作，故选B项。
    小题1:根据后文“when I answered the phone”得出答案。
    小题1:父亲电话中指导作者如何买东西而没有令人愉悦的问候(greeting)，曾经这也是作者对父亲的误解原因。meeting“开会”；apology“道歉”；explanation“解释，说明”，均不符合语境。
    小题1:从前面的 No pleasant  42 or inquiry about my life, 说明爸爸的方式让我生气.从后文“we often quarreled”也可以看出。选B
    小题1:从上文父亲的电话可知电话很短(short),故排除A,也没有温暖的话,排除C项,更没有礼貌,排除D,选B.
    小题1:根据上句I thought about my father’s success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his  44   morning calls.得知下次他让我买股票我自然要感谢(thanked)他了.选D.
    小题1:由前句When my social style has conflicted with that of my friends得知作者的社交方式和朋友不同而失望.选D
    小题1:从下面的句子:I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails.说明朋友和作者的表达方式不一样,所以作者是及时(without delay)回电话.选C
    小题1:从后面的: She wasn’t a good friend!说明是作者对朋友做出的评价.选C
    小题1:“My anger 49  as the holidays approached”与But then…构成转折关系，But then…所在的一句及后文说明作者改变了对朋友的看法，故前面作者的观点依然是否定的，“My anger disappeared／helped／declined”都说明作者不再生气，和后文构不成转折关系，故选B项。
    小题1:朋友通过参加作者举办的聚会一事改变了作者的看法，此处动词的宾语为a gathering，A、D两项搭配不合理，B项不符合事实，故C项准确。
    小题1:作者的朋友通过自己的方式表现出了其独特的关爱，让作者吃惊(shocked)，从而改变了他的看法，故选D项。
    小题1:一旦改变了看法，作者便对自己以前认为朋友是“没爱心的”(uncaring)感到后悔和愧疚了，故选A项。
    小题1:概括上文，作者回忆自己以前没有注意到人人都有独特的(unique)关爱方式(way)，后文中however也对本题答案起到了提示作用。
    小题1:参考53题解析。
    小题1:由起初的误解他人到最后学会领会／读懂(read)人们传达爱的方式，回应文章的开头，总结全文，故答案为B项。

    Growing up, I always dreamed of being a professional figure skater. After years of hard work, I am living proof that dreams can come true.

I, however,  37  trying skating in an ice rink (溜冰场), where local skaters  38  perform ice shows. I started taking group skating lessons, and performing on ice came naturally, but I have always been  39  to speak in group settings. One thing I've never been afraid of is  40  , though. I get nervous, but never  41  . For me, skating has been about being my personal best  42  beating others on the ice. 1 progressed through various  43 rapidly and gave my first ice performance at seven. Soon I started winning local and regional competitions. That's  44  being on the ice has always been the one place where I can  45   express my own emotions. The ice is like home.
    When I was nine years old I began training  46 . I would wake up at four o'clock in the morning six days a week and skate for five hours. Then I'd go to school. Since  47  has always been important in my family, I had no  48  but to find creative ways to fit in school studies throughout my  49  career.
    After graduating from high school, I moved to Canada and set out to train full-time to give my dreams a chance at reality. In 1992 I went to compete in the Olympic Games.  50 , not my coach or even my family, ever talked to me about winning a gold medal. In fact, I wouldn't even  51  myself to think about it. I thought that would disturb me.  52 , I went with the attitude that I wanted to enjoy the Olympic spirit.  53  the expectation of all the people, I won the gold medal and words couldn't describe the overwhelming mixture of emotions I felt. Then I truly understood what  54  most in achieving a dream is nor to  55  it when you 1ace difficulties, but strive to make it come true.

    It was her laughing that drew my attention. Note taking really wasn’t all that funny.
    Walking over to the offender (someone that does something wrong), I asked for the   36 . Frozen, she refused to give it to me. I waited, all attention in the classroom on the quiet   37  between teacher and student. When she finally   38  it over she whispered, “Okay, but I didn’t draw it.”
    It was a hand-drawn   39  of me, teeth blackened and the words “I’m stupid” coming out of my mouth.
    I managed to fold it up calmly. My mind,   40 , was working angrily as I struggled not to   41 . I figured I knew the two students who were most likely to draw the picture. It would do them some   42  to teach them a lesson, and maybe it was high time that I did it!
    Thankfully, I was able to keep myself   43 .
    When there were about six minutes remaining, I showed the class the picture. They were all silent as I told them how   44 this was for me. I told them there must be a reason   45  and now was their chance to write down anything they needed to tell me. Then I let them write silently while I sniffled(抽鼻子) in the back of the classroom.
    As I   46  the notes later, many of them said something like, “I’ve got nothing against you,” or “I’m sorry you were hurt.” A number of them said, “You give us too much homework.” Some kids said, “We’re   47  of you.” But two notes, from the girls who I   48   were behind the picture, had a list of issues. I was too   49  , too strict…
    Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of   50 my students, I had begun commanding them to   51 . Where I thought I was driving them to success I was   52  driving them away.
    I had some apologizing to do. But the next day in the classroom, one boy and one girl each handed me a card. The one   53  by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke. The one from the girls asked for   54 .
    This was a lesson for both the kids and me. Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the   55 .

    If you feel at present that you don’t have enough friends in your life，one reason may be that you have let yourself become too busy to make time for the relationships you already have.
    Starting and keeping friendship requires effort and commitment．Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other commitments that we don’t get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal（叙旧，更新）with the friends，relatives and acquaintances we already have．
    Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of the invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!
    Are there any people you could call right now and be assured of a pleasant welcome? Are there people that you could count on to help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life?
    If you haven’t seen much of them lately, is it because you have become too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?
    If the main reason you haven’t been getting together with the people you already know is because you have gotten too busy, take a good look at how you spend your time．Compare it with your real values and priorities（优先考虑的事）in life．Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want?
    If you have become too busy for friends，why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense of relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be over-committed because you never say “No” to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be delegated to others? If so, why? Do you believe that everything depends on you?
    Examine whether the way you are now spending your time accurately reflects your deepest values and priorities．Make sure that you schedule adequate time for the things that are truly most important to you．
    If you really want to keep friends in your life, make a space in your schedule, and a space in your heart for them.

    Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horse back riding.
    When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown. ” I had no idea how to find Linda.
    Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.
    One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman — Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but I still wrote to her.
    She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother. ”
    Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!
