A boy, about 10 years old, got to my clinic with his sick cat for cure. Thc cat was a tiny beautiful thing, about the boy's own 36 . I could see she was 37 very strong and lovely with the fur of a 38 and Tigress was her name. She 39 me with a friendly nub against my hand. I 40 her and found a tumor(肿瘤). She had no 41 of recovery. I looked at the fresh-faced boy and back at Tigress. I began to 42 pity on the boy. At such a young age, he had to face to part with his beloved one. I told him as 43 as I could what I had found, and what it meant. The boy's face twisted (扭曲) and turned away. I sat down and 44 Tigress to give the boy some time to recover. I felt Tigress's old beautiful fur 45 we discussed the possible choice with him: I could give her an operation, which would be very 46 and would not make her live longer than a month, or an injection and put her to sleep. After some time, the boy accepted the reality. 'I've seen her 47 recently, so I'd like her to die peacefully.' I could see how 48 it was costing him in making such a 49 . I asked if he wanted to take her home overnight to say goodbye. He said he just wanted to be 50 with her for a few minutes. I went to get the 51 which I would use to put her to sleep. I could not control the 52 streaming down my face. She fell asleep, her head 53 in his hand, lovely and quiet, but her owner now had all the 54 . 'This is the finest 55 you could give. You bear the pain so that the loved one might rest.' The boy nodded and he understood. 小题1: A.age B.child C.baby D.size 小题2: A.always B.now C.once D.often 小题3: A.tiger B.animal C.cat D.dog 小题4: A.nodded B.greeted C.looked at D.saw 小题5: A.saw B.felt C.rubbed D.examined 小题6:A. desire B wish C. hope D .choice 小题7: A.give B.want C.feel D.take 小题8: A.possible B.gently C.long D.soon 小题9: A.turned away B.turned to C.turned down D.turned in 小题10: A.after B.before C.while D.because 小题11: A.expensive B.simple C.cheap D.quick 小题12: A.starve B.change C.play D.suffer 小题13: A.long B.often C.much D.soon 小题14: A.way B.effort C.leap D.decision 小题15: A.lonely B.alone C.sad D.glad 小题16: A.gift B.knife C.medicine D.operation 小题17: A.tears B.heart C.feeling D.emotion 小题18: A.shaking B.nodding C.turning D.lying 小题19: A.relief B.suffering C.sleep D.fun 小题20: A.gift B.injection C.examination D.treatment
