A store owner was putting a sign above his door that read "Puppies For Sale". Signs like that have a
way of 1 small children,and 2 enough,a little boy appeared under the store owner"s sign. " 3
are you going to sell the puppies for?" he asked.
The store owner replied," 4 from $30 to $50. "
The little boy 5 in his pocket and pulled out some 6 "I have $2.37,"he said," 7 I please
look at them?"
The store owner 8 and whistled and out of the kennel (狗窝) came a lady dog,who ran down the
aisle(过道) of his store, 9 by five puppies. One puppy was 10 . Immediately the little boy singled
out the puppy and said, "What"s 11 with that little dog?"
The store owner explained that the veterinarian(兽医) had 12 the little puppy and had discovered
that it didn"t have a hip socket. It would always walk slowly and with difficulty. It would always be lame.
The little boy became 13 "That"s the little puppythat I want to buy. "
The store owner said, "No,you don"t want to buy that little dog. If you really want him,I"ll just give him
to you. "
The little boy got quite upset. He looked 14 into the store owner"s eyes,pointing his finger and said, "I
don"t want you to give him to me. That little dog is worth every bit as much as all the other dogs and I"ll
pay 15 price.In fact I"ll give you $2.37 now,and 50 cents a month 16 I have him paid for. "
The store owner answered, "You really don"t want to buy this little dog. He is 17 going to be
able to jump and play with you like the other puppies. "
To his surprise,the little boy reached 18 and rolled up his pant leg to show a badly twisted,
crippled(残疾的) left leg 19 by a big metal brace(支架). He looked up at the store owner and softly
replied," Well,I don"t run so well myself,and the little puppy will need someone who 20 !" |

lab.
"Be careful, everyone," he said loudly. "Before I make the experiment,there"re twenty five atoms of
carbon (碳原子),but after I finish it, there"re twenty four atoms of carbon left!"
He stopped to watch the classroom and hoped his students would go on explaining it. But the young
men looked at each other and nobody answered him. He had to ask, "What happens? What makes the
atom lost?"

when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.
So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same
part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too,
does crying.
Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional (情感的) health, and crying
seems to study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.
Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us
become kinder and friendly and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable
us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don"t even know we" re very sad until we cry. We
learn about our emotions through Crying, and then we can deal with them.
Just as crying can be healthy, not crying - holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering - can be bad
for physical (身体的) health, Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high
blood pre ssure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will
certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don"t fight it. It"s a natural -and
healthy-emotional response (反应). | | 1. Why didn"t the author cry when her grandmother died? | A. Because her father did not --ant her to feel too sad.
B. Because she did not love her grandmother.
C. Because she was too shy to cry at that time.
D. Tie author doesn"t give the explanation. | | 2. According to the author, which of the following statements is true? | A. Crying is the best way to get help from others.
B. Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.
C. We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.
D. We must cry if we want to reduce pressure. | | 3. What might be the most suitable title for the text? | A. Power of Tears
B. How to Keep Healthy
C. Why We Cry
