When I was a sixth grader, kids were separating into groups, but I wasn't sure where I belonged． Our teacher gave us a task called 'secret friends' for the coming week．We were supposed to do nice things 1 our friends without letting them know who was doing it．We could leave 2 notes or cards either on their desks or in their backpacks．Before doing the task, with our eyes closed, from a basket, we 3 a name of a classmate who we were to secretly befriend over the next five days． Soon, the task was turned into a competition of giving 4 instead of notes．Everyone was getting cool presents except me．My friend followed the teacher's 5 without a fault．I received nothing but handmade cards with nice words about me． On the last morning, I finally got a package．When I 6 it, the girls around all 7 ．It was perfumed powder, an 'old lady' gift．My face went red． I tried to forget about the 8 gift, but when the same girls 9 it again during the break in the bathroom, I joined in, 'How stupid! My grandmother wouldn't 10 want it．' The girls laughed at my 11 and filed out of the bathroom．Washing my hands, I let the water run through my fingers 12 I thought about my words．It wasn't 13 like me to say things like that． 'I'm your secret friend．' It was Rochelle．' I' m sorry about the gift,' she whispered to me, tears 14 down her face． From a poor family, she was a 15 at school for those with rich parents．Yet she just took all the 16 and the horrible treatment silently． I was sick to my stomach as my 17 words ran through my mind．She had heard everything．How could I have been so cruel? Later I learned she had felt bad all week about not being able to leave me any cool present and her mum had given up her only luxury（奢侈品） And I had 18 everything for her． I told her that I had only said those things to try to 19 . 'We aren't that different from each other, are we?' She smiled 20 ．Her simple words, spoken from her heart, found their way straight into mine． 小题1: A．behind B．like C．through D．for 小题2: A．convincing B．rewarding C．encouraging D．reminding 小题3: A．dragged B．picked C．found D．drew 小题4: A．chances B．gifts C．hope D．help 小题5: A．guidance B．admission C．directions D．patterns 小题6: A．discovered B．held C．grasped D．opened 小题7: A．blamed B．commented C．laughed D．shouted 小题8: A．special B．embarrassing C．worrying D．delicate 小题9: A．mentioned B．suggested C．showed D．saw 小题10: A．just B．only C．even D．ever 小题11: A．remarks B．reactions C．suffering D．feeling 小题12: A．if B．because C．since D．as 小题13: A．exactly B．necessarily C．normally D．perfectly 小题14: A．dashing B．streaming C．smoothing D．getting 小题15: A．goal B．wonder C．centre D．target 小题16: A．challenge B．ignoring C．teasing D．puzzle 小题17: A．powerful B．scary C．tense D．hurtful 小题18: A．ruined B．disturbed C．changed D．broken 小题19: A．turn off B．fit in C．get in D．show off 小题20: A．optimistically B．honestly C．persuasively D．understandingly
