When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who has wings of their own and who will fly with me.
When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say, “Let’s start with a train whistle（鳴笛）today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social persons and the stories and poems stopped.
When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair（失望）and I was in despair, too. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not travel over this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.
For almost four years I have had a great friend whose imagination brightens mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind.
It is such comforting companions（陪伴）I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist, who will only fill up the healing silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be with my own best friend.
小題1:We can infer from Paragraph 2 that the writer ______ finally.
A．wasn’t serious about her studies
B．didn’t like writing poems or stories
C．became popular with her classmates
D．developed her proper social behaviors
小題2:The underlined sentence “We gave London to each other” probably means ______.

Several years ago, a television reporter was interviewing three of the most important people from local businesses. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.
　　The reporter was talking to them about being important.
　　“How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker.
　　The banker thought for a few moments and then said, “I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President is really important.”
　　The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” she asked.
　　The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President said he was too busy to answer it.”
　　The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?”
　　“No, I don’t.” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.”
　　“Then what would make the visitor important?” the reporter and the other two men asked.
　　“Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, ‘it’s for you.’”

Dad never tried to hug or kiss me when I was a child. And of course, he never said "I love you"to me,       . Maybe it's a Chinese cultural(文化) thing, or maybe that's the way my dad was. But whenever I felt       , defeated(被打敗) or lonely, dad was always there. Dad was a man of       words, but I always liked to talk to him, and I could always feel a very special connection(聯(lián)系) to him.
When I was in high school, dad retired(退休) and  had a     stand(攤位) on the street near my school. Dad was very good at making fried noodles, and a lot of people liked his noodles. Every day when I finished school, my classmates and I would pass his food stand. But I really        talking to dad in front of his food stand,        I did not want my classmates to know that my dad was selling noodles on the street!
One night, I couldn't       it any more and shouted, "Dad, could you stop selling your stupid noodles? I don't need a father who sells noodles on the street!" At that moment, dad was shocked. He tried to say       but didn't. When he       his head away, something happened that I had never seen and would never forget          the rest of my life. His eyes were filled with tears and sadness. It was the first time that I saw dad         . My mom later told me that dad was selling noodles to save money for my college education. I was such a fool, and even today I still feel        for that night.
Time really flies. I finished college and then left my home city. For the past ten years, whenever I've visited home, dad was always there meeting me and seeing me off         at the railway station. Whenever mom was calling me, dad would sit       her with a list of questions. He would ask mom to talk to me for him. That's the way dad is, and that's        dad shows his love to me.
Dad is still quiet, but I still feel a connection. —"a silent father's love."
