“Mommy, I got something for you!” Cody ran through the door after school. His face wore the biggest smile ever. He waved something above his head. “It’s a pen. But not just any pen. It’s a lucky pen!” He handed me the pen 1 , waiting for my reaction(反应).
I looked at the pen in my hand. There was nothing 2 about it. It looked just like any other ballpoint pen. I had a drawer full of them. At that moment, I didn’t realize how special it was or how much I would come to treasure(珍爱) it.
I had made the decision to be a(n) 3 I had dreamed about it for a long time but I was afraid of being refused by the publishing houses. The night before, I told my husband my 4 when I thought Cody wasn’t listening. “What if 5 likes my writing and I fail?” But Cody did 6 what I said. Now he stood in front of me, watching me examine the pen. “You don’t have to be afraid now,” he said. “This pen will make your 7 great and everyone will love you.”
Tears filled my eyes. Refusal(拒绝) and failure didn’t seem like such a big problem any more. Even if I 8 sold the first book, I had everything I could ever need.

In the lunchroom, Cody heard an older boy talking about having a lucky 10 He decided to get it for me. The boy was a tough negotiator(强硬的谈判者) but Cody didn’t ________. In the end, he 11 his favorite Matchbox car, two army men his brother gave him, a crayon, and a piece of candy-his most important things, for that pen. Just to make 12 feel better.
I still have that pen, though it’s long out of ink, in a cup on my desk. When a refusal letter arrives and I start feeling 13 , I look at it and remember just how lucky I am. For while I value that pen, it’s Cody who I really ________ in my life.

One sheep, two sheep... 632 sheep... still awake...
People always believe that counting sheep1．(be) helpful to their sleep. But does it2．(real) work?
Scientists at Oxford University tested it. Two sleep researchers looked at the people who had3．(difficult) in sleeping. They divided them4．different groups. Then they asked them to try all kinds of ways to help5．(they) fall asleep quickly. Surprisingly, it6．(take) those who were asked to count sheep more time to fall asleep than those who weren’t. But when they were asked to imagine a relaxing picture-- a beach, for e7．, they fell asleep about twenty minutes8．(soon) than before, according to a report in The New York Times.
“Sometimes, counting tasks are OK, b9．they are thought as stressful by many people,” Dr. Richards told ABC News.
“As10．result, it may be a good way to try imagining colored fish slowly swimming in a river to help you sleep at night,” suggested Richards. Ⅳ. 阅读理解
A
13、I grew up in the 1950s with very practical parents. My mother washed aluminum foilafter she （铝箔纸）cooked in it, and then she reused it. She was the earliest recycle（回收）queen before people had a name for it．
My father was no different. He preferred getting old shoes fixed to -buying new ones. Their marriage was good and their dreams were focused（集中）．Their best friends lived just a wave away. Though my parents have passed away, I can see them now - Dad in trousers, a T-shirt and a hat and Mom in a house dress, lawnmower（割草机）in one hand and dishtowel in the other.
It was the time to fix things -a curtain rod(挂帘杆),the kitchen radio, the screen door, the oven door, and so on. They fixed all things we had. It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy. All that re-fixing and renewing made me want to scream.1 wanted just once to be wasteful. Waste meant being rich. Throwing things away meant you knew there'd always be more. I often thought like that.
But then my mother died, and on that clear summer night, in the warmth of the hospital room, I learned that sometimes there isn't any more. Sometimes, what we care about most gets all used up and goes away and it will never return. So, while we have it, it is the best that we love it, care for it, fix it when it's broken and cure it when it's sick.
This is true for marriage, old cars, children with bad report cards, dogs with bad hips and aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it and because we are worth it. 1．We can learn that when the writer was young, she_______. A．thought highly of her parents' habits B．often helped her parents fix old things C．often threw things away without being noticed D．at times hated it when her parents fixed old things
