I took my 9-year-old daughter, Susan and 5-year-old son, Robbie to the shopping center. As we got there, we saw a big sign that said, "Petting Zoo". The kids jumped up and asked, "Daddy, can we go?"

Both my wife and I were out of work. However；I said, "Sure", giving them a quarter each. They went away, leaving only fifty cents left in my pocket.

A petting zoo is made up of hundreds of little baby animals of all kinds. Kids pay their money and stay in the enclosure（围场）pleased with the little animals while their parents shop.

A few minutes later, I saw Susan walking along behind me. I was surprised and asked what was wrong.

She said sadly, "Well, Daddy, a ticket for Petting Zoo costs fifty cents. So I gave Robbie my quarter." Then she said the most beautiful thing I ever heard. She repeated the family motto（座右铭）, which is "Love is Action!"

I knew clearly no one loves little animals more than Susan. She had watched both my wife and me do and say "Love is Action!" for years, and now she had put it into her lifestyle. It had become art of her, because she knew the whole family motto. It's not only "Love is Action", it's "Love is SACRIFICIAL（牺牲的）Action!" Love always pays a price.

I was moved. We went back to the Petting Zoo. Susan stood with her hands and chin（下巴）resting on the fence and just watched Robbie go crazy petting and feeding the animals. I had fifty cents burning a hole in my pocket. I put my hand into my pocket and took out the money. Sure, I must do that!

Two girls, one older and the other younger, became close friends as a result of the same misfortune they met with--a fire made them lose their homes and their mothers. Both of them were disfigured and had several operations on their faces, yet they said they were fortunate enough to be alive.

Girl A（the older one）, returning from the hospital's ICU to her bed, was scared and almost passed out at the first looking like a ghost, as she saw herself reflected by the stainless steel railings around her bed. She said "I met a ghost on the railing. How horrible! I was really terrified, but I didn't collapse（崩溃）completely. When is it that one feels grateful for his or her survival? It must be now like this. Thank goodness! I am still alive."

The first phone call that Girl A gave to Girl B（the younger one）raised a question: "Do you know why I am so glad?" She gave the answer without waiting for a reply, "Because when I got hold of a loop（吊圈）on a bar in the bus to make myself stand like others, I felt very happy that I had a pair of hands."

Girl B's words were also very moving. She replied, "Hey, you know, don't be surprised by what I'm going to say. It was true. Let me ask you first. Do I look pretty? No, of course not. But before 11 years old I was pretty. I had snow-white skin, big eyes and a round face. I was also a wild kid. I think I'd grow up naughty if I was not properly educated. I would fall in love with other boys and become a bad girl, if I hadn't met the disaster. I disliked going to school. I'd prefer playing all day long. If there were not such a fire, I wouldn't have had chances of meeting so many kind strangers that help me to realize how wonderful life is. If there were not such an accident, I would grow into a beautiful lady. But now I am more considerate, grateful, hard-working and independent of others. Such a person as I am today will always be pretty all my life."

We never know what is waiting for us ahead. Yet, we still have the right to choose a positive attitude to face it.

1.The underlined word "disfigured" in Paragraph 1 means ________?

A.厌恶的 B.毁容的 C.残疾的

2.Why did Girl A almost pass out when seeing herself?

A.Because she couldn't accept the changes on her face

B.Because she was too sad about the death of her mother

C.Because her operation was successful and she felt too excited.

3.Which of the following statement is TRUE?

A.The older girl gave up hope completely in the hospital.

B.The two girls didn't give up their belief in life and still felt grateful.

C.The younger girl wanted to play all day long after the disaster.

4.In what order did the following events take place in the story?

a. Two girls talked on the telephone

b. A terrible fire happened.

c. The younger girl hated going to school

d. The two girl's mothers died.

e. The older girl had an operation on her face.

A.b-d-e-c-a B.b-d-a-c-e C.c-b-d-e-a

5.What's the best title of the story?

A.A terrible Fire B.Two Terrified Girls C.Rise from the Fire
