About one year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next door to me. I never heard any noise from the children, but I often heard the parents 26 shouting at the kids, not in a nice tone, but in a (n) 27 one.
We often 28 in the hallway. I always greeted them, 29 the only answer I ever got was a “hello” from the eight-year-old girl. I usually 30 to see my doctor and one day when I returned they were just 31 their apartment and the little girl was 32 the outside door open for the others. I 33 in the car doing 34 things because I wasn’t eager to be snubbed (冷落) again. Finally I got out of my car and walked towards the door. The parents were telling her to 35 to get into the car, but the little girl was still holding the door, 36 me! I hurried although I was still in pain from my injury.
I forgot to tell her how 37 I was for her kindness. I wrote a note saying how much her act of kindness had 38 an old man’s heart.
The next day there was a (n) 39 on my door and it was the little girl and her father. She was quite 40 of her behavior and thanked me. Then I noticed her mother was there, too. Her parents 41 me, too.
Now when we meet in the hall way we always greet each other, in a friendly 42 .
Last night there was a heavy snow. I looked out at my car and 43 how I was going to keep my doctor’s 44 because I could only walk for a short time. This morning when I opened the front door, all the snow was removed.
Isn’t it 45 that the small kind act of an 8-year-old girl can change so many things for the better? It is said that good tings come from small acts.

Three years ago when I was still in the university, I also worked at a restaurant.
An old man named Mr. Candido Filio was one of our regular customers at the restaurant. He was one of the most intelligent people I’ve ever known.
Every Sunday the Philippine Star Newspaper had a special page for word puzzles and among his peers (同龄人), Mr. Filio held the record for solving all the puzzles in less than five minutes. He encouraged me to solve them too and for months and months, I did my best to beat him but failed.
Then one Sunday, I did it! I was able to complete them before anyone else. Everyone cheered for me. He came up to me with a smile and said, “No one has ever beaten me before. You’re the first. I’ll have a prize for you tomorrow.”
The next day, he gave me a special Scrabble (拼字游戏) set. I would have never been able to afford one like that by myself. Then he said to me, “Kate, what do you think is man’s final goal in life? Happiness, isn’t it? You are happy and that should be considered as a success. Many people spend a lifetime searching for that. Be thankful that you have found it.” I looked at him and knew that my life had changed, probably forever. He must have known that I always felt sad about not having much money.
He encouraged me to learn the game and love words. And true to his words, I was never able to beat him again.

Steve Fossett did not really look like an adventurer, but he reached some of the most difficult goals in sailing and flying.
Fossett was most proud of being the first person to fly around the world alone in a hot-air balloon. To make a trip around the world alone, it was necessary to have an improved autopilot (自动驾驶仪) device. Fossett had one of his team members develop a more advanced balloon autopilot that would allow him to sleep and do other tasks while flying safely.
Steve Fossett attempted the hot-air balloon trip around the world six times. This was not easy to do. He flew in the balloon’s capsule (密封舱) that was too small to stand upright. During his fourth attempt in 1998, he was almost killed during a storm off the coast of Australia. He fell 9,000 meters into the Coral Sea with his balloon’s capsule on fire. He was later rescued at sea.
Fossett successfully made the trip in 2002. The trip started and ended in Australia. He traveled more than 33,000 kilometers for more than 14 days. On this flight, Fossett set other records including a speed record of 322 kilometers per hour. One main problem with earlier balloon flights was the threat of dangerous storms. A team of weather experts e-mailed and talked to Fossett by a satellite telephone to help him avoid such weather.
Steve Fossett’s hot-air balloon is now at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. It is there as an example for other people to try and succeed in doing something important to them.

| C．brave and determined | D．energetic and kind-hearted |
| A．He was rescued during the trip. |
| B．He lost his way over the sea. |
| C．It lasted over three weeks. |
| D．He set a speed record of balloon flight. |

"What"s going on in there? How is it? " the father asked.
