　　There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages．

　　On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port．It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, "If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship．But if he comes out before the sun appears, I shall get his wages．"

　　The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating, so they didn't trust him．But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it．He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it．When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away．

　　"You are cheating, " the captain said to the sailor．"The fire's warming you．"

　　"But it's half a mile away! " said the sailor．

　　"A fire's fire, " answered the captain．"I have won．"

　　The sailor came out of the water, and said, "Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can't cook a chicken．"

　　"I can, " answered the captain．

　　"If you cook this chicken, " said the sailor, "I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can't, you will give me your ship．"

　　The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, "Where's the fire? "

　　"There it is, " answered the sailor．"On the shore．"

　　"But it's half a mile away, " said the captain angrily．

　　" 'A fire's fire, ' you said, " answered the sailor．"If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken．"

Scars of Love

Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks and shirt as he went.

He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator（短吻鱷） was getting close. The mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In great fear, she ran toward the water, yelling to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the alligator reached him. From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched (抓住) his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war (拔河比賽) between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, rushed from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator.

Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred (留下傷疤) by the terrible attack of the animal. And on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother’s fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy after the trauma （外傷）, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted the pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “Look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mum wouldn’t let go.”

You and I can identify with （認(rèn)同） that little boy. We have scars, too. Not from an alligator, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But, some wounds, my friends, are because we have refused to let go.

56. The underlined part “the two” in the second paragraph refers to ______.

   A. the alligator and the mother         B. the mother and the son

C. the driver and the alligator          D. the son and the alligator

57. From the passage we can infer ________.

   A. The mother was unwilling to let the alligator go

   B. The mother was actually stronger than the alligator

   C. The son was proud of his scars on his arms

   D. The son was ashamed of his scars on his legs

58. According to the last paragraph, what is the writer’s real meaning?

   A. To forget the past is to betray.       B. We should forget the scars.

   C. Wounds are different from scars.     D. We should learn to let go sometimes.
