I stared at the paper,21 reading, couldn’ t help thinking.
Crocodiles are lazy animals as a rule,but they can move like lightening when they want to. And they don’ t mind hurrying 22 they’ re hungry. There used to be lots in Indian rivers, living on fish mostly;but what’ s a little fish for a fifteen-foot crocodile? They ate people,fisherman or anyone else delicious enough to get too near;women doing the 23,or children playing at the water’ s24 A hungry crocodile’ s mouth 25 over a meal with a sound like a gunshot. A big fellow can 26 in a man in two bites (咬).
That woman’ s husband crossed rivers 27 from one crocodile’ s back to the next. I believe it. It had to be done quickly before the creature could see what was happening. It wasn’ t 28 a brave, active man;and no doubt he improved with practice. He could never look 29 while crossing.
The wife used to watch him—I felt sure of that. She lived 30 the adventure, the 31 excitement of it all. Their real life was with tigers,snakes".It’s no wonder she wrote 32 poetry.
Then he died.I imagined how she felt. Was there another man 33 him in India, in the world? She was still young,hardly a sitting-room widow(寡妇)“I must 34 ,too. she said to herself. So she did what she felt she had to do. A 35 probably,to her head.
But her young son,their son? Was her love for him nothing compared to her husband? Well,what do you think?

I believe in people, in sheer, unadulterated humanity. I believe in listening to what people have to say, in helping them to achieve the things which they want and the things which they need. Naturally, there are people who behave like beasts, who kill, who cheat, who lie and who destroy. But without a belief in man and a faith in his possibilities for the future, there can be no hope for the future, but only bitterness that the past has gone. I believe we must, each of us, make a philosophy by which we can live. There are people who make a philosophy out of believing in nothing. They say there is no truth, that goodness is simply cleverness in disguising your own selfishness. They say that life is simply the short gap in between an unpleasant birth and an inevitable death. There are others who say that man is born into evil and sinfulness and that life is a process of purification through suffering and that death is the reward for having suffered.
I believe these philosophies are false. The most important thing in life is the way it is lived, and there is no such thing as an abstract happiness, an abstract goodness or morality, or an abstract anything, except in terms of the person who believes and who acts. There is only the single human being who lives and who, through every moment of his own personal living experience, is being happy or unhappy, noble or base, wise or unwise, or simply existing.
The question is: How can these individual moments of human experience be filled with the richness of a philosophy which can sustain the individual in his own life? Unless we give part of ourselves away, unless we can live with other people and understand them and help them, we are missing the most essential part of our own human lives.
There are as many roads to the attainment of wisdom and goodness as there are people who undertake to walk them. There are as many solid truths on which we can stand as there are people who can search them out and who will stand on them. There are as many ideas and ideals as there are men of good will who will hold them in their minds and act them in their lives.
A. listening to people's opinions
B. revolutionary changes
C. being happy or unhappy
D. the way it is lived
E. we give part of ourselves away
F. many roads to the attainment of wisdom
G. as a short gap between birth and death

As our van pulled up to the ranch (牧场) to start a three-month program for troubled boys, we passed a cowboy on his horse. Bill was the owner of the ranch. We made eye contact through the dusty window and he winked (挤眼睛) at me and touched the brim of his cowboy hat in welcome.
All summer long Bill and his ranch-hands taught us to ride horses, chop wood, and round up cattle. We started to understand the value of working with our hands. Knowing how important it was for boys like me to know that someone believed in them, he trusted us to do the job and do it right. We never let him down.
The last day at the ranch, Bill pulled me aside and praised me for the work I had done-not only on the ranch, but also on myself. He told me if I ever needed anything I could count on him.
Four years later, I took him up on that offer. I called him up and asked for a job. I told him how his confidence in me had given me the courage to change my life. He offered me a job on the spot. I’m proud to say that each summer I’m the one in the ranch to open the gate for a van full of young men who need someone to believe in them, so they can learn to believe in themselves.
The author’s first impression of Bill was probably his _________.
A.seriousness
B.friendliness
C.authority
D.generosity
