There was a small boy living on a farm which seemed like so far away from everywhere. He needed to get up before sunrise every morning to start his everyday jobs and go out again later in the evening to do the same 　36　.

During sunrise he would 　37　a break and climb up the fence so that he could see the house with golden windows 　38　 the distance. He thought 　39　 great it would be to live there and his 　40　 would wander to imagine the modern equipment and electric devices that might 　41　 in the house. “If they could 　42　 the golden windows, they 　43　 have other nice things.” He then 　44　 himself, “Some day I will go there and see that wonderful place.”

Then one morning his father told him to stay at home and he would do the everyday jobs. 　45　 that this was his chance, he packed a sandwich and　46　 the field towards the house with golden windows.

He walked and walked. As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how he misjudged the long 　47　 and something else was very wrong. As he 　48　 the house, he saw no golden windows but instead a place in bad 　49　 of a painting surrounded by a broken-down fence. He went to the tattered (破烂的) door and 　50　. A small boy very 　51　 his age opened the door.

He asked him if he had seen the house with 　52　 windows. The boy said “Sure, I know” and 　53　 him to sit on the porch (门廊). As he sat there, he looked back from 　54　 he just came; the sunset 　55　 the windows of his house to gold there.

As far back as 700 B. C, man has talked about children being cared for by wolves. Romulus and Remus, the legendary（传说的）twin founders of Rome, were said to have been cared for by wolves. It is believed that when a she-wolf loses her litter, she tries to get human child to take its place. This seemingly foolish and unreasonable idea did not become believable until the late nineteenth century when a French doctor actually found a ten-year-old boy having nothing on wandering in the woods. He didn’t walk upright, could not speak understandably, nor could he relate to people. He only growled（嗥叫）and stared at them. Finally the doctor won the boy’s confidence and began to work with him.

A boy walked along Carver Street, singing a sad song. He walked with his head down. Once he looked up and noticed the sign across the empty street, painted on the side of an old house. On the sign a big woman with yellow hair and a five-mile smile held out a big bottle. “Coca-Cola. Drink-Cola-Cola,” the sign said.

　　“Boy!” the silence was cut by a sudden cry. He turned around quickly to see who had called.

　　An old woman was standing at her door.

　　“You boy! Come here this minute!”

　　The boy laboured over the paper. Again he looked out of the window.

　　“Here. Bring it here so I can   14it.”
