閱讀下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選擇最佳選項。

The Power of Story

When my dog Gracie disappeared six years ago, I really learned what I believe. Gracie escaped from our backyard around 2:00 p.m. We searched the neighborhood for hours but had no ______. We put up advertisements, and by dark, we returned home, exhausted (精疲力竭).

On the second day, I called my animal doctor, the SPCA, and the animal shelter (收容所). Nothing. I felt lost.

If I knew Gracie had been ______, I would have been heartbroken. If I knew she was caught somewhere, I would save her. If I knew she had found a better home, I would be ______ yet relieved (放心的). But how do I deal with the unknown? Wait patiently? Search endlessly? Give up?

The third day, while I was searching in the woods with my friend Rhea, I told her losing Gracie was like losing faith (信任) in everything. Rhea smiled and said, “You know, maybe Gracie’s on a great adventure.” It seems ______, but I felt better then. Rhea’s words ______ me what, as a writer, I surely have faith in: the power of story.

As one writer said, all we have is stories. It’s what holds our life together. We call stories science, some stories myth (神話), but imagine hearing for the first time that the world may be round. Such stories only become real when we ______ them. And some stories are never supported with scientific facts, but they still seem to hold true.

For example, ten years earlier, I’d dreamt that I should get a ______, and by that evening, Gracie came into my life. When people would ask what kind of dog she was, I would say Muppet wolf terrier (小獵狗). It was something I ______ because I believed Gracie was half dog, half wolf.

So why not imagine now that she was off on an adventure exploring her wolf side?

The fourth day started with me finding a ______ on the sidewalk, I’d always thought of finding money as a good sign. And I was sure Gracie would come home on the fifth day. I guess it was another story to hold on to.

On Day Five, I was at a friend’s house when her phone rang. I knew immediately it was news about Gracie. And I was right. When I finally saw her in my hallway, I cried. “My wolf days are ______.” Gracie seemed to say. “I’m back to being a dog”.

Or so is the story I choose to believe.

1.A. luckB. reason C. good D. problem

2.A. keptB. sold C. stolen D. killed

3.A. madB. worried C. sadD. moved

4.A. rightB. strange C. reasonableD. real

5.A. ordered B. warned C. reminded D. suggested

6.A. hear B. know C. believeD. read

7.A. dog B. prizeC. story D. house

8.A. looked up B. built up C. set up D. made up

9.A. card B. coin C. phoneD. book

10.A. lasting B. exciting C. short D. over

1.C 2.A 3.B 4.C 5.D 6.D 7.C 8.A 9.C 10.D 【解析】 試題分析：本文主要講述了作為老師的作者通過講述了一個叫做Vincent的學生的故事，Vincent在小時候不能和其他的孩子一樣安靜地坐在教室聽課做作業(yè)，老師越強迫他，他將會變得更煩躁�？墒呛髞碜髡甙l(fā)現(xiàn)Vincent卻很成功。告訴大家總有希望。...
