　　10. A. endless B. precious

　　C. special

　　17. A. hard B. out

　　C. again

　　D. instead

　　【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。乐观者把失败看成生活的一个组成部分, 即使他们失败了, 他们也会以积极的态度重新尝试。

　　One cold night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco．There I was walking home around one o’clock

　　the morning after a

　　1

　　practice at the theatre. With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart. I was having

　　2

　　handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about

　　3

　　both acting and San Francisco. I had

　　4

　　too much of city life.

　　As I walked down the

　　5

　　streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began

　　6

　　both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few homeless people under blankets.

　　About a block from my

　　7

　　, I heard a sound behind me. I

　　8

　　quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me

　　9

　　，so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I

　　10

　　what the noise had been. It had been my wallet

　　11

　　to the sidewalk.

　　Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk

　　12

　　for 15 minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.

　　Just as I was about to quit the

　　13

　　, I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an

　　14

　　look in his eyes. “Is this what you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up a wallet.

　　It was already 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I couldn’t get much sleep, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some

　　15

　　of city life. I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.
