One day, a boy found the cocoon(茧) of a butterfly and brought it home. A few days later, the boy saw a small ___31___ in the cocoon. He sat and watched for several hours as a butterfly struggled to make ___32___ body through that little hole. Suddenly it stopped.
So the boy ___33___ to help the butterfly, thinking the butterfly might be___34___  .He took a pair of scissors(剪刀) and cut the hole ___35___  .The butterfly came out of the cocoon but it ___36___ a little different. It had a weak body and small, thin ___37___  .The butterfly didn’t start to fly. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬行) around with a weak body and thin wings. It was never able to fly.
The boy acted with___38___  but he didn’t understand why it could be like this. When a butterfly crawls out of the cocoon, it must struggle. The hard work of ___39___  out of the cocoon makes the fluid(液体) from the butterfly’s body into its wings. It helps the butterfly be___40___ to fly. If the butterfly never has to squeeze(挤压) itself out of the cocoon, its wings will never get the fluid and it can never fly.___41___ struggles are what we need in our lives. If we lived our lives without any problems, we would never learn or grow. We would not be ___42___ as we could have been and we would never fly.
In our lives, pain and suffering is the key to all windows, and sometimes even ___43___ growth, without it , there’s no way of life. We can’t avoid ___44___  or problems. So, next time you are ___45___ a problem or difficulty, remember the butterfly. Struggle a little----then fly!

I asked many classmates and friends, “What do you think you will be when you grow up?”   1 of them told me what they would like to be in the future,    2   others said, “I don’t know.” I’m    3   to hear that because I think it’s bad. I think having dreams or hopes about the future will help us do better at school.
As middle school students, it’s time for us to    4   what we want to be in the future. If we know it better, we will know    5   to do it better at school. For example, if you are outgoing and like to meet people, you can be a   6   in the future. Then you should practice   7  more articles. If you’re happy with children and like    8  , you can teach English as a job in the future. And then you are supposed to work harder at English. If you want to    9   many interesting places, you can be a tour guide.
Of course, all the    10   that we are learning at school will be useful in the future, so we should work hard at all of them.

I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a major insurance(保险业) company. I told him honestly why I wanted the job----I needed to keep my family in Boston. My wife recently died of a heart attack. A job in Boston would help me reduce some of the extreme trauma (精神创伤) and pain of the loss for my 16-year-old daughter. It was important for me to keep her in her high school. I could still hardly talk about the loss of my wife.
Bruce, the interviewer, was politely empathetic, but he didn't probe any further. He admitted my loss and with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of the interview, Bruce took me to lunch with another person. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he, too, had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had three children.
In his sharing, I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had -----a pain that was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a beloved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, if I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call.
Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help. When he had no idea if we would ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of the greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview into a caring support for another person in need.  
小题1:The writer took part in the interview because __________.
A.hehad lost his job and wanted to find a new one.
B.he had to support his family in Boston.
C.his wife had recently died of a heart attack.
D.his daughter needed money for schooling.
小题2:The underlined word "empathetic" in the second paragraph means ____.
A.善良的B.容易相处的C.聪明的D.同情的
小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A.Bruce invited the writer to lunch later.
B.Bruce shared his life experience with the writer.
C.Bruce was willing to help the writer.
D.Bruce finally gave the job to the writer.
小题4:We can infer(推断) from the passage that ______.
A.Bruce and the writer saw each other often.
B.the writer got little help from Bruce.
C.the writer learned much from the job interview.
D.the writer had a better life afterwards.
小题5:What is the best title for the passage?
A.An Act of KindnessB.A Pleasant Interview
C.The Same ExperienceD.An Important Lesson
