三、完形填空（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）
On my first job, I worked as a sports editor for a small newspaper. I never got a letter from my readers, so I was 36 that there was an envelope(信封) on my desk one morning. From the 37 , I could see it was from a most popular newspaper.

In an American classroom, a Chinese girl was asked to answer a question. She stood up and smiled, without making any sound. The American teacher looked at himself and didn't see anything funny. So he asked her the question again. The girl just smiled but said nothing. The teacher was angry. He didn't know that the girl smiled to cover her embarrassment(尴尬) because she wasn't able to answer the question.
In a dining room in Beijing, an Englishman was careless and dropped a plate. The Chinese who had seen this began to laugh. The Englishman felt uncomfortable and even got angry. "They are laughing at me," he thought. In fact, the Chinese laughed not at the Englishman or his bad luck--whether he is a foreigner or a Chinese. The laughter has several feelings, don't take it so seriously; laugh it off, it's nothing; such things can happen to any of us, etc.

There is an old saying that all of us are born with two bags hung on our necks. A small bag in front of our chest is filled up with other people's faults (缺点), while the big one at the back is full of our own shortcomings (短处).
So it’s easy to find other people's faults, but it's hard for us to see our faults behind us.
There was a boy, Tommy, who always opened the front bag to check what was in it. He saw other people's faults very quickly. When Simon was impatient with him, he said to Simon, "It's so easy for you to get angry. It is hard to be friends with you."
He told his mother about Jack's dishonesty. "Jack takes my things without asking. He also forgets to return them." Tommy himself did not like sharing his things with anyone.
When Johnny was too tired to play with him, he said, "'You are such a rude person."
He thought Harry was too proud of his rich parents. But Tommy was as proud of himself because he could not see any of his own shortcomings! He could not understand why he did not get on well with others.
If only Tommy would switch the bags around, he would discover his own impatience, dishonesty, bad manners and vanity (虚荣), which were no better than that of Simon, Jack, Johnny or Harry.

( ) 58. Tommy thought it was hard to be friends with Simon because Simon was _________.
A. impatient B. a rude person
C. dishonest D. too proud of his rich parents
( ) 59. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

B, Tommy liked sharing his things with others.
C. Tommy always discovered his own shortcoming.
D. Maybe Tommy was no better than Simon, Jack, Johnny or Harry.
( ) 60. In this passage, the writer mainly wanted to tell us ________.
A. to be more patient
B. not to be a person with vanity
C. not to take others' things without asking
D. to pay more attention to our own shortcomings

D
One day when some government officials(官员) were rebuilding a barn（粮仓）, they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out. A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing（挤）out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away immediately. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.
Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.
After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.
One serious American official said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard. “The others thought for a while and said: “That was why!” A smart French said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife.” Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense. A Japanese said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed agreement another time.
At that moment, one Chinese asked: “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship？ “Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and rema
