Few days ago, I went to school with tons of books, hoping to get a locker. All of a sudden, it started raining 1 . I hurried to pay for my locker, but I was disappointed 2 they informed me that they only accepted cash. I was $7. 00 3 , which meant I had to carry the books back home. It would be an exhausting two-hour 4 back home with all those books.
There was an elderly gentleman nearby. 5 my predicament (困境) , he asked me how much cash I needed. When I told him I needed $7, he quickly took out the money. “You don’t have to pay me back,” he said. I was 6 ; I didn’t know whether to take the money or come back with the books the next day. A young student who was working there noticed my 7 . “He is really nice,” said the student, “I was starving this morning and he bought 8 for me. He always helps people in different ways.” 9 thinking for a while, I took the money and 10 my locker.
The next day, I went to him and thanked him for 11 me and lending me the money. He said he forgot about it and did not 12 that I would give it back. “I am very happy,” he said, “not because I am getting my money back, 13 because this is the right way to go whatever you get 14 this world, give it back as much as you can. Spread kindness around the world 15 the smallest things you can do.”
Later, I found out that he was not involved with any charity 16 . He has been performing these types of 17 for years. I desperately needed the locker that day but after meeting this man, I was much more 18 for meeting him than getting my locker. He taught me a very important 19 in life—we come to this world with nothing and we will leave with nothing. Whatever we own, it 20 someone else and whatever we leave, it will become somebody else’s.

(2017届·济宁高考模拟)
A euphemism (from the Greek words eu—well and pheme—speak) is a word or expression that is used when people want to find a polite or less direct way of talking about difficult or embarrassing topics like death or the bodily functions.Most people，for example，would find it very difficult to say in plain language that they have arranged for their sick old dog to be killed.They would soften the pain by saying：We had Ruby put down or We had Ruby put to sleep.Many people prefer to call someone plain than ugly，or cuddly rather than fat.
Euphemisms are an important part of every language，but it seems that English has an evergrowing number of them.The nonnative speaker not only has to make sense of the euphemisms he hears，he also has to learn which euphemisms are appropriate in any particular situation.He might be aware that his American friend needs to use the toilet when she asks where the bathroom (or restroom，or comfort station) is，but he is less likely to guess that his English friend has the same need when he says he has to see a man about a dog.He might have learned，for example，that in the family way is a euphemism for pregnant.If，however，he says to his boss，“Congratulations！I hear your wife is in the family way，” he would be using an expression that is too familiar for the circumstances.
Schools are full of euphemisms.At Frankfurt International School，for example，the special lessons given to students who are having difficulties in their school subjects are called Study Center (in the middle school) and Academic Workshop (in the high school)．Teachers rightly do not want to upset students or parents by being too frank or straightforward，and usually choose a softer word or expression to convey the same message.
6．According to the passage，people use euphemisms in order to________.
A．make themselves understood
B．avoid embarrassment
C．to sound straightforward
D．attract attention
7．A person who is described as plain and cuddly is in fact________.
A．tall and handsome
B．pretty and slim
C．ugly but tall
D．ugly and fat
8．When an English lady says she has to see a man about a dog，she might want to________.
A．have her old dog killedB．see an ugly friend
C．go to the toilet
D．see a pregnant woman
9．The main purpose of Paragraph 2 is to________.
A．stress that euphemisms are an important part of every language
B．inform readers that English has an evergrowing number of euphemisms
C．suggest nonnative speakers use euphemisms as often as possible
D．warn English learners to be careful about the meaning and use of euphemisms
10．At Frankfurt International School，the students who receive lessons in Study Center________.
A．have poor grades in the subjects
B．do well in school
C．work hard at their lessons
D．prefer to learn more
