　　Passage 1

　　As a child, I started learning to play the piano, my favorite musical

　　41

　　,but I was forced to give up when I started my middle school

　　42

　　I could concentrate more on my studies.

　　It’s one of my biggest

　　43

　　to stop practicing the piano when I recall sadly today. During the following years, I kept telling my piano teacher that I would

　　44

　　. However, I didn’t keep my promise because I was

　　45

　　with my study.

　　46

　　I lost touch with my teacher. Some years later, my teacher died. I was very sad because I lost such a good teacher. She was a very warm and gentle person. It hurts me to think she may have been

　　47

　　that I never returned. I haven’t taken lessons since then but to be honest, I

　　48

　　to. Sitting at the piano, I couldn’t help recalling many

　　49

　　-- times of my practising at home and playing before my teacher and one time my teacher

　　50

　　me after I played entire pieces of music wrong in front of her colleagues. I was so

　　51

　　that I could hardly say anything. But her

　　52

　　helped ease my shame. These memories,

　　53

　　, good or bad, never caused my

　　54

　　for playing the piano again.

　　This thought then led me to think that

　　55

　　is like music, and that we all try to play different

　　56

　　in the instrument of our life. Sometimes the pitch(音高) is

　　57

　　when we play it well, but sometimes we are out of tone. However, we all continue to create our own

　　58

　　style of music. No matter what style our music is, it is

　　59

　　that we sing the songs of joy, quietness and love. Though I may never make it back to piano lessons, it doesn’t

　　60

　　that I’ve stopped making music.

　　Passage 2

　　Every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. I learned that a true friend is the most important in my life after I had gone

　　41

　　so many terrible things. I felt upset when I was told that I would have to

　　42

　　the company. As I had a very big family to

　　43

　　and was in great need of money, what I was

　　44

　　about was how to find another new job. In order to

　　45

　　this problem, I rushed from place to place like crazy. I read almost all the newspapers and

　　46

　　almost all the telephone numbers in the newspaper

　　47

　　in my notebook and tried to call almost all the companies that needed new

　　48

　　. Not until I found a job in a small town near Townsville had I

　　49

　　down. My new boss, Mr. Johnson, was one of my good friends since primary school. “Why didn’t you

　　50

　　me until now? Was it

　　51

　　to do that ? Explain to me the reason,” he said,

　　52

　　me a cup of hot coffee. Both of us were overjoyed to see each other and we

　　53

　　the whole afternoon talking about things and persons that we

　　54

　　at school. John asked me to give him some advice about

　　55

　　to enlarge his present business and he was entirely happy about my

　　56

　　. To my great surprise, he offered me a

　　57

　　which didn’t need much experience because I was not

　　58

　　with this field but the pay l got was much more than

　　59

　　. The moment I saw my

　　60

　　, the sum of money given by the company, I cried for the first time — that was the first time for me to do so since I grew up.

　　I am a mom of two young children whom we home-school. This

　　50 . As he began putting his items on the belt the clerk began to
