I know I should have told the headmaster at the time. That was my real  36 .

He had gone out of the study for some  37 , leaving me alone. In his absence I looked to see  38  was on his desk. In the  39  was a small piece of paper on which were written the  40  “English Writing Prize 1949. History Is a Serious of Biographies (人物傳記)”.

A(n)  41  boy would have avoided looking at the title as soon as he saw the  42 . I did not. The subject of the English Writing Prize was kept a  43  until the start of the exam so I could not  44  reading it.

When the headmaster  45 , I was looking out of the window.

I should have told him what had  46  then. It would have been so  47  to say: “I’m sorry, but I  48  the title for the English Writing Prize on your desk. You’ll have to  49  it.”

The chance passed and I did not  50  it. I sat the exam the next day and I won. I didn’t  51  to cheat, but it was still cheating anyhow.

That was thirty-eight years  52  when I was fifteen. I have never told anyone about it before,  53  have I tried to explain to myself why not.

The obvious explanation is that I could not admit I had seen the title  54  admitting that I had been looking at the things on his desk.  55  there must have been more behind it.

My husband can plan wonderful surprise celebrations for me.Recently，however，I told him I didn’t want him to plan one for my upcoming birthday.
“Why？” he asked.
“I am embarrassed being the center of attention，”  I quickly explained.
Later，I began to think more deeply about this reason. Then I remembered the surprise celebration I had planned for my friend Nancy on her 60th birthday. We  were roommates on a three­week tour following the Silk Road on those famous steppes  (大草原)—and through the  mountains—of central Asia.
That  afternoon  we  had  arrived  at  our  hotel  in Samarkand，Uzbekistan. The young man at the hotel desk told me about a bakery about 10 minutes away. After giving me detailed directions，he added，“Your nose will let you know when you arrive there.”
The temperature was 40 ℃.Soon，my_olfaction proved to be an unfailing guide. Outside the bakery，a delicious smell greeted me.
There were several kinds of breads，cookies，and cakes on display. There were also beautiful iced cakes. I chose a cake topped with powdered sugar.
Later at the Karim Bek Restaurant，Nancy didn’t see the young waiter walk up the steps with the cake.When I began singing“Happy Birthday，”everyone at our table—except Nancy—joined in.
It took her a moment to realize what was happening. Then the grinning (咧嘴笑的)  guest of honor thanked me，blew out the candles on the cake，and ate three pieces of it.
Today，after reliving this experience in my mind，I told my husband to ignore my request.I now understand what a surprise party is about：It is not about having a surprise party but rather the delight in giving it. That is what brings the satisfying joy.
【小題1】Why did the author go to the bakery?

A．To get some bread for her journey.
B．To experience the local taste in Samarkand.

A．the waiter at the hotel
B．the author’s sense of smell
C．the author’s friend
D．the author’s map
【小題3】The party held at the Karim Bek Restaurant was________.

C．quite boring D．too noisy
【小題4】From the last paragraph we learn that now the author________.
A．becomes less interested in surprise parties
B．thinks surprise parties are embarrassing
C．enjoys giving others surprises

Fifteen years spent in the field of education has provided me with many treasured moments. One of the most unforgettable       when I was teaching second        , 10 years ago.

In May I decided to plan something special for the children: a Mother’s Day tea. We had put our heads together to       ideas of how to       our mothers. We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day.  I was surprised and      to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I     invited my own mother.

Finally, the big day arrived. Each child      up at our classroom door, expecting the arrival of his or her mom.     it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t shown up and he was looking       . 

I took my mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” I said, “I have a bit of problem here and I was     if you could keep my mother       while I’m busy.”

My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy       my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had       the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep       .

Now 10 years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment. Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. I had the students complete an outline of the day’s     and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if       was completed. When I came       Jimmy’s page, he had written “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs. Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”

I told him I really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed and     his own thanks and walked away. Suddenly he ran back and gave me a big hug. “Thanks again. No one even knew my mother didn’t      it.”

I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had       stopped hugging teachers years ago.
