I had to jump up and run down the hall to   29  everyone. This was not in my nature but I just had to be alone. After running for what seemed like a long time, I went into a restroom and       30   for at least five minutes.

She held onto me until I   34  stopped crying. Then she grabbed a paper towel, wet it   35   handed it to me. She looked at me, smiling, and then left. She never said one word but she   36  my heart.

She taught me that you do not  37   to be a conversationalist to  38  someone who is hurt. Never    39  to hug someone who may need it. You can make a  40   in someone’s life without ever saying a word.

【語篇解讀】本文講述了作者在得知父親病重且康復(fù)機(jī)率微小后流露出了難過和惋惜之情，他飛奔過醫(yī)院的過道跑進(jìn)廁所大聲痛哭了一會(huì)兒。當(dāng)他走出廁所側(cè)間去水槽處洗臉時(shí)，一位陌生人擁抱了他一下，并遞給他一塊濕巾。陌生人始終微笑著看著他，之后離開了。陌生人的這樣一個(gè)溫情的舉動(dòng)深深觸動(dòng)著他，并使他明白了“無需語言，一個(gè)細(xì)小的行動(dòng)也足以影響人的一生”的人生真諦。文章蘊(yùn)藏人性，富含哲理，具有較強(qiáng)的教育意義。

21. A. 作者不知道（have no idea）父親病重，直到被告知手術(shù)進(jìn)展順利。

22.D. 父親當(dāng)時(shí)是失去知覺，人事未知，故選unconscious, 而unaware意為“不知道的;未察覺到的”。

23. C. 我們不得不讓他再使用呼吸器72小時(shí)，這是國家法令規(guī)定的。故用“force”。

24. A. 這與父親的愿望相悖，故用介詞“against”。

28. C. 意識到不能再和父親共走人生之路了；“be able to ”意為“能夠”。

29. D. 作者想躲開，避開其他任何人， 故用“get away with”。

30. A. 作者跑進(jìn)廁所廁間，宣泄自己的情感，用“cried”符合意境。

31. C. 從行文發(fā)展看，應(yīng)是陌生人“stranger”。

32. A. 緊扣上下文，作者到水槽邊，打開水龍頭洗臉。

33. D. 根據(jù)下文提示，陌生人對作者表示關(guān)心，用“hug”。

34. D. 直到最后，強(qiáng)調(diào)一個(gè)結(jié)果。

35. B. 根據(jù)行文的順接，謂語動(dòng)詞的并列用“and”。

36. C. 雖然陌生人默默無語，但行動(dòng)上足以感觸作者，故用“touched”。

37. A. 此句意為“你不需要成為一個(gè)善于言談的人去安慰對方……”。

38. D. 考查動(dòng)詞，意義同上表示“安慰，慰藉”，故用“comfort”。

39. B. 考查動(dòng)詞，意為“毫不猶豫地去擁抱需要關(guān)心的人”，故用“hesitate”。

40.C. 意為“無需語言，一個(gè)細(xì)小的行動(dòng)也足以影響人的一生”，故用短語搭配“make a difference”表示“起作用；有影響”。

Parents are a child’s first teachers. But some parents never learned from good examples. In New York City, a nonprofit agency called Covenant House tries to help homeless young mothers become good parents.

The twelve or so teenagers who live at the shelter attend parenting classes four days a week. The class is called Mommy and Me. Teacher Delores Clemens is a mother of five and a grandmother. She teaches basic skills, like how to give a baby a bath and how to dress a baby depending on the season.

She remembers one student who learned from her mother not to pick up a crying baby. The mother said that would only make the child needy and overly demanding. Delores Clemens says, “that's not true. You have to hold your baby! He is crying for a reason. If you never pick him up, he's going to keep crying. Pick your baby up. Cuddle your baby. Hug him! And she started to do that. They just want a little cuddling and a little love. And it works!”

Delores Clemens says her students also learn how to be good mothers by letting themselves be mothered. Around three hundred fifty teenage mothers graduate from Covenant House's Mommy and Me class every year.

In class, with her baby son is Natasha. She lived on the streets. She is glad not only for the warmth and shelter of Covenant House. As she told reporter Adam Phillips, she is also glad for the help they offer in seeking a more secure life.

The World Health Organization says the United States has forty-one births for every one thousand girls age fifteen to nineteen. That is higher than other developed countries, as well as some developing ones. By comparison, northern neighbor Canada has fourteen births and southern neighbor Mexico has eighty-two.
