“Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “just what you do in your ___53__?” Coolly, I heard myself ___54__, “I have a continuing program of research in the

Grandma Pugh sized up the baby like a pig at the farmers’ market. There was a pause and then she pronounced. “He’s got nice long legs.” She clapped her hands once in approval. But then she frowned and leaned forward. Everyone waited anxiously. The baby had opened his eyes and was staring up. “But those cross eyes won’t do,” she declared firmly, shaking her head in disappointment.
That had been Freddie Pilcher’s first meeting with Grandma Pugh. Since then, ten years had passed. Much to his grandmother’s satisfaction, she’d been proven right about the boy’s legs. He was a regular beanpole. Grandma Pugh had also been correct about his eyes. Freddie had been wearing glasses to correct his vision since he was two years old. His current pair was thick, and cheap-looking, but at least he could see.
Freddie not only had poor eyesight, but he was also clumsy. He wasn’t good at schoolwork either. But there was one thing that the boy was good at and it was all on account of the length of his legs. He could jump.
Freddie was the best jumper in school. Not only could he leap the furthest but also the highest. At breaktimes, he entertained the little ones by leaping over the school wall into Mrs Hobson’s garden and then rapidly jumping back. She had been up to see the head teacher several times because somebody had been crushing her vegetables.
It was badgers (獾), Freddie suggested, when quizzed by Miss Harpy — definitely badgers; no doubt about it. His dad had terrible problems with badgers. Only last week he had lost two rows of carrots. Freddie had woken one night and heard them tearing through the garden, a whole herd of them. They rooted up the lawn and dug up the vegetables. Terrible things, badgers. All the other children nodded their heads wisely. There was a moment’s pause in Class Three as everyone thought about the dreadful damage that badgers could do.
1.What do we know about Grandma Pugh?
A. She was present at the birth of baby Freddie.
B. She was unwilling to listen to the ideas of others.
C. She was a figure of great importance in the family.
D. She valued physical appearance over all other things.
2.Why did Freddie jump over the school wall?
A. To annoy his teacher.
B. To escape from school.
C. To amuse his schoolmates.
D. To damage Mrs Hobson’s vegetables.
3.Which of the following best describes Freddie’s physical appearance?
A.
B. 
C.
D. 
4.Why does Freddie talk about badgers in the final paragraph?
A. To explain the cause of the damage.
B. To warn the class about their danger.
C. To describe what happened to his father’s garden.
D. To make up an excuse for the cause of the damage.

While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport, I had one of those life-changing experiences - the kind that sneaks up on you ____.
I noticed a man with two bags stopped right next to me to ____ his family. First he motioned to his younger son (maybe six years old), knelt down and gave him a long and intimate hug. As they ____ enough to look in each other’s face, the father said, “So good to see you son. I missed you much!” Smiling, the son replied softly, “Me, too, Dad.” Then the man stood up, gazed in the eyes of his older son(maybe nine or ten), “You’re already quite a young man. I love you very much.” They too gave each other an affectionate hug.
Meanwhile, a baby girl (perhaps one year old) was excited in her mother’s arms, never taking her eyes ____ the wonderful sight of her ____ father. The man gently took the child from her mother, kissed her face and held her close to his chest while ____ her from side to side. After moments, he handed the girl to his older son and declared, “I’ve ____ the best for last!” and proceeded to give his wife the longest and most passionate kiss.
Then they stared at each other’s eyes ____. For an instant they ____ me of newlyweds (新婚), but I knew ____ the age of their kids that they could not possibly be. I puzzled about it for a moment and then realized how totally ____ I was in the wonderfully display of unconditional love. I suddenly felt ____, as if I were invading something ____, but was amazed to hear my own voice nervously asked, “Wow! How long have you been married?”
“Been together fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” he replied, staring at her.
“Then, how long have you been away?” I asked. The man finally turned to me, saying, “Two whole days!”
I was ____. By their greeting, I had assumed he’d been gone for ____ a few weeks - if not months. I know my expression ____ me. To ease the ____, I said, “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after twelve years.” He suddenly stopped smiling, looking me straight in the eye and said something that left me another person.
“Don’t hope, friend…decide!”, and then his eyes ____ smile again.
I was still watching that exceptional man and his family walk out of ____ when my friend came up to me and asked, “What are you looking at?”
Without hesitation, and with a sense of ____, I replied, “My future!”
