"I can take you for a walk through our village," the girl responded. "I want everyone to hear of your problem. When they know the truth, they will no 50  be afraid of you. While we are going from house to house you can look at me 51  , and then you will stay the same size as you are now.

"But 52  we go, let's change your name. What do you want to be called? YOU should not be called FEAR, because YOU are not afraid. It's the people who look at you 53  fear you. That's what causes you to grow into a giant."

"Will you hold my hand 54  ? If I get scared I'll shut my eyes. Oh, and will you please call me 55  ."

“Can I see my baby?” asked the happy new mother. The bundle(婴儿包) was placed in her arms and when she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped—the baby had been born without ears. Time, however, proved that the baby’s hearing was perfect except his appearance.

One day when he rushed home from school and threw himself into his mother’s arms, he cried out bitterly, “A boy, a big boy called me—a f-…freak.” She sighed, knowing that his life was to be endless of heartbreaks.

He grew up, handsome for his misfortune. A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that. He developed a gift for literature and music.

The boy’s father had a talk with the family doctor. Could nothing be done? “I believe we could graft(移植) on a pair of outer ears, if they could be donated,” the doctor decided. So the search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice for a young man. Two years went by. “You’re going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need. But it’s a secret,” said the father.

The operation was a brilliant success. His talents blossomed into genius. School and college became a series of successes. Later he married and entered the diplomatic(外交) service. “But I must know!” he urged his father. “Who gave so much for me? I could never do enough for him.”

“I do not believe you could,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know…, not yet.” The years kept the secret, but the day did come… one of the darkest days that ever pass through a son. He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材). Slowly and tenderly, the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick, reddish-brown hair to let out the secret.

1.The story is mainly about_______.

A. how a boy had new ears through an operation

B. what a devoted parent privately did for the child

C. how a disabled boy turned into a useful person

D. why a donator made a sacrifice to a bright boy

2.The underlined word “freak” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.

A. slow-acting person                    B. ugly-looking child

C. badly-behaved student                 D. strangely-shaped creature

3.What can be inferred from the passage?

A. The agreement was between the donator and the family.

B. The boy was so popular that he was made class president.

C. Finally the boy came to know who the donator was.

D. The mother donated her ears to her son after she died.

4.We can learn from the passage that _______.

A. real love sometimes lies in what is done unknown

B. it is up to parents to help their children heart and soul

C. true beauty lies only in the heart not in appearance

D. it’s a virtue for young generations to learn to be grateful
