Seeing an Exhibition

Last week I went to an exhibition at the Tale Gallery in London. I'm not really a great __36__ lover but I'd read some __37__ reviews of the exhibition in both Time Out and the Sunday Times which made me very keen to see it. I __38__ some time before it was due to __39__ but there were already plenty of people waiting __40__ for the doors to open. Most of the people waiting were young; __41__ in fact there didn't seem to be any middle-aged people there __42__. All of them were waiting __43__ and I __44__ them in the queue. In the end we were allowed to enter. Now, I must be __45__ and say that the exhibition was disappointing to me. Although I spent a lot of time looking __46__ at each picture, I had some difficulty in understanding what the __47__ was getting at. Finally, as I was looking rather stupidly at one of the paintings and trying to__48__ if it was the right way up or not, an old gentleman came up behind me and started to __49__ the whole thing to me. He __50__ answered all of my questions and we talked for over an hour. Then he said he had an appointment and had to go, __51__ we shook hands and said goodbye. I went round the gallery once more and I found that I now __52__ everything much better and some of the paintings seemed really __53__. It was __54__ as I was leaving the gallery that I __55__ the gentleman I had been talking to was the artist himself.

I'd been travelling for long hours on a lonely country road when I had a flat tire. So I had to stop and get the tools to  36 the problem. It certainly wasn’t  37 doing this with a white shirt and suit on.
Nightfall was approaching. Suddenly a car pulled  38 from behind me. A man got out and offered to  39 me. Seeing his unpleasant appearance and tattoos（紋身）on his arm, I became  40 as thoughts of robberies flashed through my mind. But  41 I could say anything he had already begun to take the tools to change the  42 . While watching him I happened to look back at his car and noticed someone sitting in the passenger seat. This had  43 me.
Then, without  44 , it began to rain. He suggested that I wait in his car because my car was unsafe. As the rain increased, getting us wet within seconds, I  45 agreed. When I settle into the back seat, a woman’s voice came from the front seat. “Are you all right?” She turned around to me. “Yes, I am.’’ I replied with much  46  when seeing an old woman there. It must be his Mom, I thought. To my  47 , the old woman was a neighbor of the man who was helping me. “Jeff insisted on stopping when he saw you  48 with the tire. ”“I am grateful for his help, ” I said. “Me, too!” she said with a smile. He helped drive her to see her husband twice a week in a nursing home. She also said that he  49 at the church and tutored disadvantaged students.
The rain stopped and Jeff and I changed me tire. I tried to offer him money and of course he  50 it. It was shameful that I judged people by the way they  51 . As we shook hands I began to apologize for my  52 . He said, ‘‘I experience that same  53 often. People who look like me don’t do nice things. I  54 thought about changing the way. But then I saw this as a chance to make a  55 . So I’ll leave you with the same question I ask everyone who takes time to know me. If Jesus returned tomorrow and walked among us again, would you recognize Him by what He wore or by what He did?’’

Sea lions and seals may swim in cold ocean water, but even they get chilly sometimes. Seeing an injured seal wrapped in a blanket at a marine(海的) mammal center gave Haley Humes and Hayley Jeffries an idea for a special Girl Scout project. They decided to make blankets to keep injured animals warm. They would give these blankets to the Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach, California.
“We knew we wanted to help animals,” Haley said. “We went to the center to ask questions about what they needed. They don’t have a heated floor, and all the babies crowded together to stay warm.”
Friends since kindergarten, Haley and Hayley made 12 blankets to keep the Marine Mammal Center’s seals and sea lions warm. Using fun images like Winnie-the-Pooh, the girls took two hours to make each blanket. The first sea lion to test out a blanket looked pretty in pink.
“It was a sick baby and really liked it,” Haley said. “It curled up in it right away.”
“The blankets are beautiful and the animals love them!” said the Mammal Center’s Michele Hunter. “It’s nice to see children taking pride in their work and doing something to help animals.”
During the project, the girls took dozens of pictures for the PowerPoint presentations they gave to Girl Scout leaders. Those presentations helped Haley and Hayley raise $250 to buy additional supplies the center needed.
This was the first project the girls ever worked on and took months to plan and carry out.
“I learned that in order to make something happen, you have to take it slowly and step by step,” Hayley said. Just as important, the girls discovered that two people really can make a difference. “Knowing you’re making a difference……with these animals is amazing,” Haley said. “It was like the animals became my new friends.”
The Pacific Marine Mammal Center cares for sea lions and seals, as well as for other marine mammals. Since opening in 1971,the center has saved more than 5,000 injured marine mammals.
【小題1】          What does the underlined word“ chilly” in Paragraph 1 mean?

A．Sick. B．Cold.C．Afraid. D．Bored.
【小題2】          When Haley and Hayley saw an injured seal wrapped in a blanket, they_____.
A．decided to help animalsB．a(chǎn)sked Girl Scout for help
C．went to the animal center to work.D．called on others to protect animals
【小題3】          What can we learn about Haley and Hayley from the text?
A．They raised $2,500 for the Mammal Center.
B．They made 120 blankets by themselves.
C．It took them an hour to make a blanket.
D．They felt great about what they did.
【小題4】          Which of the following words can best describe the work of Haley and Hayley?
A．Difficult.B．Successful.C．Experimental.D．Dangerous.
【小題5】          According to the text, the Mammal Center_____.
A．has a history of about 40 years
B．has an advanced heating system
C．has saved ten thousand animals so far
D．protects both land and marine mammals
