Two friends visited the zoo together. The zoo was very large and it was   36  to go everywhere. They had to decide where and which animal to visit as their time was   37 . So both of them agreed not to   38  after choosing a   39  at every fork (岔路口).
A road sign at the first fork   40  one way to the lion quarters and the other to the tiger hill. They decided on the   41  after a   42  discussion because lions were “the king of the grassland”. The second showed a division (路口) going separately to the panda and peacock. They   43  panda as it was the nation’s treasure and went its way. Thus they made choices all along the way and each choice meant   44  what they could regret. But they had to make it  45 , for it brooked (容忍) no delay. If they hesitated they would miss  46 . Only   47  decision could offer more chances for sightseeing and   48  possible regret.
Life is  49  like this—choices often occur that one has to make, for example, between two  50  jobs, two fascinating wooers (追求者). To get one you   51  give up the other—you can get half of it. If you   52  weighing the pros and cons(權(quán)衡利弊) and calculating gains and losses, you will most likely   53  empty-handedness. Don’t be sad about it.  54  you have got half of the desirable things in life—something that is   55  to get.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2015屆浙江省高二上學(xué)期期中考試英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Once again, I had run away and really did not know why. I walked out of the gate to go to school and then kept walking, and walking, and walking. I was 11years old. It was almost dark; I was tired, cold, and all alone. I had not eaten all day and was afraid to turn myself over the police. I knew I would receive another beating once I returned to the Children’s Home Society. There was nothing for me to do, except keep on walking.

As darkness fell, I entered the darkened area in a city park sat down on a wooden bench hoping to avoid the police cars. It was cold and I began to tremble uncontrollably. All was quiet except for the passing cars in the distance.

“Well, hello young man.” A voice came from behind me. I jumped, almost falling off the park bench. My heart was beating ninety miles per hour. I gasped and I could hardly catch my breath. I looked up and saw a woman standing behind me in the shadows.

“You look cold and hungry,” she said. She took off her scarf, wrapped it around my shoulders and asked me to follow her. We walked about twenty feet, and then stopped under one of the park streetlights.

She held out her hand and said, “Here, you take this letter.” Seeing nothing in her hand., I stood still.

“Reach out and take the letter from my hand,” she insisted. Slowly I reached out, acting as though I was taking something from her hand. “Now hold the paper tightly and take it to any store owner,” she instructed.

I closed my thumb and finger as though I were grasping the letter and began walking toward Five Points. Several blocks down the road, I came to a store with a woman sitting behind a counter. I opened the door, walked in, and stopped directly in front of her. Very slowly I held out my hand toward her. I watched her face to see if she might think I was crazy or something.

She reached out and as her hand touched mine, I opened my tightly closed fingers and stood there waiting. She pulled back, smiled, and looked down at her hands.

She immediately turned and walked to the back of the store. After a while, the woman returned holding a paper plate.

“Here is something for you to eat.” She smiled and signaled to me to eat. Within two or three minutes, I downed the entire plate of food and several Coca Colas.

Before I left, she held out her hand and asked me to take the letter. Again seeing nothing, I held out my hand and closed my thumb and finger as though I were taking something from her. Tightly grasping nothing more than air, I walked out into the street and headed back to the park. The old woman was still there.

“It is really magic. Can I have the letter so I can be magic too?” I asked her.

She reached out, took my hand, and opened my tightly closed fingers. Whatever was being held between my fingers, she took and placed into her apron pocket. “Would you help someone if they were hungry?” she asked me.

“Yes Ma’am.”

“Would you help someone if they were hurt, cold or scared?”

“Yes Ma’am. I would be their friend.”        

“You are a very lucky little boy. You will never need the magic letter,” she responded.
