Then it began 8 in the late afternoon.As I came up the road I spied you.There were 9 in your stockings.I made you feel 10 before your friends by marching you ahead of me to the house.Stockings were expensive—and if you had to buy them you would be more 11 !Imagine that,son,from a father!
Do you remember,later, 12 I was reading in the library,how you came in,shyly,with a sort of 13 look in your eyes?When I glanced up over my paper, 14 at the interruption,you hesitated at the door.“What is it you want?”I shouted angrily.
You said 15 ,but ran across quickly,and threw your arms 16 my neck and kissed me,and your small arms 17 with an affection that God had set blooming(开花) in your 18 .And then you were gone,running quickly up the stairs.

Ⅳ.七选五
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it,then life is no longer difficult.
Most do not fully see this truth. 1 It seems to them that their difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families,their class,or even their nation.
2 Problems,depending on their nature,cause us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear.These are uncomfortable feelings,often as painful as any kind of physical pain.And since life causes an endless series of problems,life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. 3
4 When we desire to encourage the growth of the human spirit,we encourage the human ability to solve problems,just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. 5 As Benjamin Franklin said,“Those things that hurt,instruct.” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.
A.Problems are the serious test that tells success from failure.
B.Life is not a trap set for us by God so that he can condemn(责难) us for failing.
C.It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn.
D.Yet,it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning.
E.Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy.
F.We can register to make money and participate in problem solving collaboration (合作、协作) groups.
G.What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one.
