    Roy died at an old age with many memories. His life was full of both good and bad memories, but he  26  to remember mostly the good. The bad memories that broke his heart and that he  27 with friends, involved the big war－World War II. So many things about his war experience he remembered  28 great detail.

    Roy survived the attack on Normandy－he was part of the second wave that landed. He 29 with him the memories of water mixed with the blood of fallen soldiers. He experienced 30 , sweat, blood, fire and salt water just to get to the beach. In terror-filled moments that would forever change his life and the history of our world, his life was robbed of innocence（天真）  31  the realities of war engulfed（吞噬）him.

    Not too many months later, he found himself cold and  32 . Close to being completely 33 from air supplies（供给）because of the weather, Roy and his fellows hung on to what little hope they could have. Then Christmas morning came, the weather cleared long enough for supplies to be  34 and word to spread that other troops would soon be there.

    Many of the young men who began with Roy did not make it home  35 . They gave their lives to fighting against the Nazi. Those who did survive would never be the same. Many of them were the most patriotic（爱国的）people you would  36 meet, but most of them  37 war. They had experienced it. They knew its final realities－things got blown up while people were killed, and robbed of their beloved ones.

    It is Memorial Day in the United States today. We all pray for an end for the world’s need for young men and young women to be placed in harm’s way. We also need to remember those who paid the huge  38 of wars－costs not counted in dollars, but in lost lives, broken hearts, forgotten innocence, broken families, and terrible memories. And as we remember to  39 those who paid this awful price, we also remember in hopes to see an end to war itself.

    Please, in their honor, don’t forget their sacrifices（牺牲）. Please, for our world’s sake, don’t forget to pray for  40 .

    　　My son Joey was born with club feet(畸形足)．The doctors told us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally－but would never run very well．In the first three years of his life he had several operations on his feet．By the time he was eight, you wouldn’t know he had a problem when you saw him walk．

    The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too．We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to run as well as the other children．So he didn’t know．

    　　In the seventh grade he decided to try out for the cross-country team．Every day he trained with the team．He worked harder and ran more than any of the others－perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him．Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school．We didn’t tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn’t know．

    　　He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day－even on the day he had a high fever．I was worried, so I went to look for him after school．I found him running all alone．I asked him how he felt．“Okay,”he said．He had two more miles to go．The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever．Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running．We never told him he couldn’t run four miles with a high fever．So he didn’t know．

    　　Two weeks later, the names of the team runners were called．Joey had made the team．He was in the seventh grade－the other six team members were all eighth-graders．We never told him he shouldn’t expect to make the team．We never told him he couldn’t do it……．so he didn’t know．He just did it．

    　　I am afraid to lose．I fear this time, and I love memories．I could not forget the sweat on the pitch with brothers, forget my close friends accompanying me crying, and forget the bright stars of every night, and those words that have touched me deeply．

    　　Those people, those things, such as bursts of light rain in the lake left ring watermark four scattered to each other to melt each other's impact; just like the quiet shining star, not very bright, but clearly made．They do not know how much to spend with me during the bright day and silent night．

    　　In my memory, the third year is not gray, because I still remember seeing sunrise and sunset with my friends, and it's that nice．

    　　Youth is the eye lotus spring, third year is spring season that this eye bubbled．I, however, strongly smell in the bubble years of the Problem tests．I do not exclude these, but too much pressure does away much fun．Unfortunately, after the college entrance examination, even the pressure would become the memories, and be my third year living memory of the dead evidence．In the time before we are so powerless, the only left on just the eye springs, and we have no regrets of the promise, I hope day after day, year after year, when I return to this page, people still have remembered the beauty．

    　　I have read one another frightening words：Some people say that once you start to like the memories of those, you will get old．I only admit mature, do not believe they have been growing old．My friends are growing up day by day, and were young and mature, how can I grow old ahead of time?

    　　"Heaven Rain in green and so on, and I am waiting for you, the moonlight was recovered, the faint opened the outcome．" Jay's sad voice has been completely different from the business for the time sentimental(伤感的); Bard will be the years the pace of a camel carved into the blue and white porcelain in that respect．

    Great leaders are almost always great simplifiers, who cut through argument, debate and doubt to offer a solution everybody can understand and remember．Churchill warned the British to expect “blood, toil, tears and sweat”; Roosevelt told the Americans that “the only thing we have to fear is fear itself”; Lenin promised the war-weary Russians peace, land and bread．Straightforward but effective messages．
    We have an image of what a leader ought to be．We even recognize the physical signs; leaders may not necessarily be tall, but they must have bigger-than-life, commanding features －- Lyndon Baines Johnson’s nose and ear lobes, Ike’s broad grin．A trade-mark also comes in handy; Lincoln’s stovepipe hat, Kennedy’s rocking chair．We expect our leaders to stand out a little, not to be like an ordinary man．Half of President Ford’s trouble lay on the fact that, if you closed your eyes for a moment, you couldn’t remember his face, figure of clothes．A leader should have an unforgettable identity, instantly and permanently fixed in people’s minds．
    It also helps for a leader to be able to do something most of us can’t: FDR overcame polio; Mao swam the Yangtze River at the age of 72. We don’t want our leaders to be "just like us." We want them to be like us but better, special more so. Yet if they are too different, we reject them.
    A Chinese philosopher once remarked that a leader must have the grace of a good dancer, and there is a great deal of wisdom to this. A leader should know how to appear relaxed and confident. His walks should be firm and purposeful. He should be able, like Lincoln, Roosevelt, Truman, Lke and JFK, to give a good, hearty, belly laugh, instead of the sickly grin that passes for good humor in Nixon or Carter. Ronald Reagan’s training as an actor showed to good effect in the debate with Carter, when by his easy manner and apparent affability, he managed to convey the impression that in fact he was the president and Carter the challenger.
    The every simple truth about leadership is that people can only be led where they want to go. The leader follows, though a step ahead. Americans wanted to climb out of the Depression and needed someone to tell them they could do it, and Roosevelt did. The British believed that they could still win the war after the defeats of 1940, and Churchill told them they were right.
    A leader rides the waves, moves with the tides, understands the deepest yearning of his people. He cannot make a nation that wants peace at any price go to war, or stop a nation determined to fight from doing so. His purpose must match the national mood.
    1．The underlined word “yearning” in the last paragraph probably means_________.
    A．love  B．trouble     C．desire       D．feeling
    2．From the fourth paragraph we can learn that_________.
    A．leaders usually look special or different
    B．leaders don’t have to be tall
    C．most leaders look ordinary
    D．leaders should always have trademarks
    3．According to the article, a leader_________.
    A．usually tries to simplify our messages
    B．tell us what we want to hear
    C．encourages us to think about things in a new way
    D．is usually confident and handsome
    4．From the passage we can infer that          .
    A．it helps for a leader to be able to dance or act well
    B．great leaders are usually totally different from us
    C．Carter was humorous and made good speeches
    D．it is the people rather than the president that makes what a nation is
    5．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
