We could all say that we have bad days as we go through life, but what does it take to have a really good day?

I remember a day recently when I had to go to the ________ for special tests because I wasn’t feeling well and my doctor sent me to a specialist to try and find the cause of my illness.

As I ________ to the hospital, I was feeling sad and certainly wasn’t on top of my game. As I got to the hospital, I began my _______ for a parking lot. I finally found one not too far from the entrance to the hospital.

As I got out and brought my change out of my pocket, I noticed a man looking a little _______ standing in front of a parking meter (停車記時(shí)收費(fèi)表) two cars away. He seemed to be searching his pockets for what I supposed were ________ for the meter.

Although I _______ didn’t feel that great, I thought that I should at least go over to him and find out if I could ________ him. As I stood beside him, he turned to me looking worried. I asked him if he had a problem I could help with. He said that he had no coins at all because he was only thinking about visiting his sick wife when he left his house.

I reached into my pocket and ________ out two dollars and gave it to him without saying a word. And, without waiting for a reply, I turned on my heel and said to him as I was walking away: “Have a good day.”

科目:初中英語 來源:湖北省武漢市2017年中考英語模擬押題卷 2 題型:閱讀理解

It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. It hadn`t rained in almost a month. The

crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. If it didn`t rain soon, we would lose

everything. On this day, I witnessed(目睹) a wonder.

I was making lunch when I saw my 6-year old son, Billy, walking very slowly toward the

woods. Minutes later he came running out again, toward the house. Soon after, I saw him

walking toward the woods again. This went on for an hour. Finally I walked out of the house

quietly and followed him.

Billy cupped both hands in front of him carefully as he walked into the woods. in order

not to drop the water he carried. Then I saw an amazing sight. Several large deer stood in front

of him. Billy walked right up to them. I saw a tiny baby deer lying on the ground. It was dying

of thirst, and it lifted its head with great effort to drink the water in my boy’s hands.

When the water was gone, Billy ran back to the house. I followed him to the tap. Billy

opened it and a small trickle(涓涓細(xì)流) came out. He knelt there, letting the drips(水滴)

slowly fill up his “cup”.

Now I understood what was going on. The week before, he tried giving water to our

horses but I told him not to waste water. Now when he stood up and turned, I was there in front

of him. His eyes filled with tears. “I’m not wasting,” he said. I joined him with a small

pot of water from the kitchen. I let him walk to the baby deer alone while I stood at the edge of

the woods. As tears rolled down my face, they were suddenly joined by other drops…and more

drops… as if the sky itself was crying.
