Aboywaswalkinghomefromschoolwh-优题课

A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, tempting （诱人的）apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence. The boy wasn’t much of a fruit-eater,     a bar of chocolate if given the choice,         , as they say, the forbidden fruit can be tempting. Seeing the apple, the boy wanted it. The more he looked at it, the       he felt and the more he wanted that apple.
    as high as he could, but even as his tallest       he was unable to touch It. He began to          up and down , as high as he could, at the       of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple . Still it remained out of         .   Not giving up , he though , if only he had something to       on . His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to         the things inside , like his lunch box , pencil case , and Gameboy. Looking       , he hoped he might find an old box , a rock , or ,         luck , even a ladder , but it was a tidy neighborhood and there was nothing he could use. He had tired everything he could think to do.      seeing any other choices , he gave up and started to walk        . At first he felt angry and disappointed thinking about how hungry he had become from his        , and how he really wanted that apple . The more he       like this , the more unhappy he became.
      ,the boy of our story was a pretty smart guy, even if he couldn’t always get what get he wanted .He started to say to himself . This isn’t             ,I   don’t have the apple and I’m feeling miserable as well.There’s       more I can do to get the apple-that is unchangeable-but we are supposed to be able to       our feelings. If that’s the case, what can I do to feel better?

But after nine years together, she finally had to tell her father (her mother 13 away a few years ago). We were on tenderhooks（惶恐不安）the weekend she went up North to tell him.
It was emotional and as a family we were worried. Hari had been 14 of our family for so long, we felt for her. We knew how 15 it would be. She loved her father, but knew this would hurt him, who was a very traditional Sikh man.

The whole office fell into a 43immediately and many staff just looked 44. The old man stood silently in the office with his bands 45and eyes tearing .
That night , Sally cried heavily in front of me . I asked her whether it was her father’s 46deeds that made her feel embarrassed . But she said that she felt 47about her dad and that though the rest of the whole world betrayed her , her old father would still 48her up and help her get the 49she deserved , just as when she was young and the neighboring boy grabbed her ball , her father would get it back for her . 50, this changed world was no longer the stage for her old father and his deeds became funnily out-of-date . No one managed to see the real and ever-lasting love to his daughter behind his 51rude behaviors .

Who in the world would love us so deeply and relentlessly without asking for any 54? Only our 55!
