    “What’s the matter here?” asked one man.
    “Oh, it’s only some old robins (知更鸟)!” said another one, “The  39  has blown them out of the nest. They are too young to  40  .”
    “What a  41  ! They’ll die,” said the third one.
    “Well! They’re nothing but  42  ,” said the first lawyer.
    The three men looked down and saw the mother robin  43  to her mates. Then they rode on, talking and laughing as before. In a few minutes they had  44  the birds. But the fourth lawyer, whose name was Abraham Lincoln,  45  . He got down from his  46  and gently took the little ones up. They didn’t seem  47 , but chirped (唧唧叫) softly, as if they knew they were safe.
    “Never  48 , my little fellows,” said Mr. Lincoln. Then he looked up to find the nest from which they had  49 . It was much higher than he could reach. But Mr. Lincoln could  50 . He put the birds softly, one by one, into their warm home.
    In a few minutes, Mr. Lincoln  51  the others. He had torn his coat on the thorny (多刺的) tree. Then all three of them  52  heartily. They thought it so   53  that a strong man should take so much trouble just for some worthless young birds.

    Abraham Lincoln afterwards became President of America.

    As a music teacher，I have always known that music touches the soul. It can 36 all kinds of barriers to reach students in a very special way.It can be the  37 for each child to find their light.I would like to 38 a story about it.
    For a few years I was  39 with the opportunity to teach disabled students.One of my most 40  students was a five-year-old girl called Vanessa，who had difficulty walking，and could not speak.We  41 sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to  42  on my lap．One of her favorite songs was John the Rabbit.It was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students  43  twice while singing the repeating phrase，“Oh，yes！” Vanessa liked to  44 her hands together with mine and clap with me.We probably performed that song during every class，Vanessa and I clapping together.But she  45  said or sang a word.
    One day，when the song was finished，Vanessa turned around， 46 me in the eyes，clapped her tiny hands twice and said the words“Oh，yes！” I opened my mouth in  47  and for that moment I was the one who could not speak.When my heart  48  started beating again，I looked over at the assistant teacher to find her also  49 .Through music，we had made an awesome connection.
    Several years later，I met Vanessa on the street in town.She waved with a big 50  on her face and then clapped her hands twice，imitating the song we had 51  so many times in our music class.The little girl， 52  her connection with music，left an impression on me that will last forever. Every child has the 53  to learn and grow. It is up to us to  54  the way to reach each and every one of our students.We all must find each child's  55 .

    The house was quiet at 5 am and Tim’s mother was asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He’d dreamt of the cave last night. The purring（轻微颤动声）of the freezer had been the sea.                                         
    Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.
    He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches—but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches. She’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table:
    Gone to Michael’s. Back tonight, Tim.
    The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn’t up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet.
    The sand hills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves.
    The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched (延伸) across the sea. The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.
    Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky.
    He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it. He had to force himself to go closer. Why was it so much more mysterious now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble. He needn’t go in all the way...

    We spent a day in the country, picking wild flowers. With the car full of flowers we were going home. On our way back my wife noticed a cupboard outside a furniture shop. It was tall and narrow. “Buy it,” my wife said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof rack(行李架), I’ve always wanted one like that.”
    What could I do? Ten minutes later I was 20 pounds poorer, and the cupboard was tied onto the roof rack. It was six inches long and eighteen inches square, quite heavy too.
    In the gathering darkness I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.
    After a time my wife said, “There’s a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake, I wonder?”
    In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then, with great kindness, they led us through the rush-hour traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.
    “Right, sir,” he said. “Do you need any more help?”
    I was a bit puzzled. “Thanks, officer,” I said. “You have been very kind. I live just on the road.”
    He was staring at our car: first at the flowers, and then at the cupboard. “Well, well,” he said, laughing. “It’s a cupboard you’ve got there! We thought it was, something else.”
    My wife began to laugh. Then the truth hit me like a stone between the eyes. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a cupboard, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.
    小题1:It can be inferred from the passage that______.

    B．the cupboard cost less than 20 pounds

    小题2:The police will be more polite to those who are______.
    A．in great sorrowB．driving in the gathering darkness

    小题3:What did the police officer think of the cupboard?
    A．It was so expensive that it needed their help
    B．It was a box for a dead person to be buried in.
    C．There might be something stolen in it.
    D．It was a big box with some bomb in it.
    小题4:What did the husband think of the whole matter?
    A．It was very strange.B．He took great pride in it.
