“Look, it’s Baldy!” A boy shouted in my direction across the playground. Even though I was used to regular insults（侮辱）because of the 41 on my head, it was 42 horrible to hear. I sighed as I headed back to the class. When I was just 20 months old, I suffered serious 43 after a bowl full of hot oil fell on my head. I was 44 to hospital and had to stay there for weeks while the doctors 45 to save my life. “Holly’s very 46 to be alive,” they told Mum and Dad. “But she’ll be 47 with scars on her head, and of course her hair won’t grow there.” As a child, I cared much about my scars, so I 48 wore a scarf to cover them up when I left home. 49 I didn’t, people would call me horrible names like Baldy. Although my friends were always comforting me, they never 50 understood how it felt. Then through the hospital I was 51 to a children’s burns camp, where children like me can get any help.

But she is so 53 that she never lets anyone put her down. “You shouldn’t 54 what people say about what you look like because we’re not different from anyone else, Holly, ”  She 55 me. “And you don’t need to wear a scarf because you look great 56 it!” For the first time in my life I could speak to someone who’d been through something 57 . So weeks later, at my 13 th birthday party, 58 by her bravery, I gave up my scarf and showed off my scars. It felt amazing not having to 59 away behind my scarf. Now, I am 60 of what I look like and much happier, because I have realized it is your personality that decides who you are. 小题1: A．hat B．scarf C．scars D．cuts 小题2: A．still B．just C．never D．seldom 小题3: A．hunger B．cold C．defeats D．burns 小题4: A．rushed B．led C．invited D．forced 小题5: A．learned B．fought C．returned D．decided 小题6: A．happy B．lucky C．lonely D．poor 小题7: A．pressed B．occupied C．left D．painted 小题8: A．possibly B．usually C．finally D．nearly 小题9: A．Although B．Since C．If D．Before 小题10: A．correctly B．roughly C．easily D．really 小题11: A．promoted B．introduced C．reported D．carried 小题12: A．met B．recognized C．remembered D．caught 小题13: A．honest B．strong C．active D．young 小题14: A．write down B．agree with C．pass on D．listen to 小题15: A．promised B．encouraged C．ordered D．calmed 小题16: A．in B．for C．without D．beyond 小题17: A．similar B．strange C．hard D．important 小题18: A．allowed B．required C．guided D．inspired 小题19: A．hide B．give C．keep D．put 小题20: A．sick B．awake C．tired D．proud
