It was 4 o'clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just
36 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We have called for a(n)
37 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.” Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was
38 . The doctor described the
39 , which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment. When they
40 the charcoal(木炭),it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much gasoline(petrol).The flames

42 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and
43 him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in
44 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars(伤疤).
After he

46 it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling. So, he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch very
47 scar on her arm, “Nancy, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It does not mean they will not
48 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I
49 this wisdom on to my son. He took my advice to
50 and returned to school with his head held high--glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not

52 to give up any plastic surgery. We all have “scars” that we believe
53 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same
54 standards. Put your imperfections out of your mind and concentrate on what you value
55 yourself, and your beauty will shine through.

生活感悟类阅读解题指导:
一、文章特点:
生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪,使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文,如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事,有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。有时故事的结尾会有一句“点睛之笔”,点出全文的中心思想,就像《伊索寓言》里的寓言一样。还可能是夹叙夹议的哲理散文或生活随笔。散文随笔通常会阐述一种朴素易懂,耳熟能详的人生道理或宝贵品质。文章的结构和议论文类似,一般是总分总或总分结构。每段首句或尾句为主题句(论点),其它句子围绕主题展开论述(论据),论证方法多种多样,或举例,或引用名言,或正反对照等。
二、解题技巧:
针对生活感悟类文章的特点,做这类文章的完形填空时,要特别注意以下几点:
1、重点理解全文的首句。如果是记叙文,找出when,where,who,what等基本要素。如果是散文随笔,充分理解文章的中心句—全文的主题。
2、阅读全文的结尾段或结尾句,有助于理解文章所阐述或蕴含的哲理、感悟或忠告等。
3、调动自己的背景知识和情感。这类文章不会讲大道理也不会涉及到一些很专业的知识技术领域,而是谈一些小事和简单的道理,所以如果读者能和作者产生感情上的共鸣,读者会更好地把握作者的意图态度,从而提高做题的准确度。因此,考生在平时要做一个有心人,即用心去感悟生活中发生的小事,思考人生的一些基本道理,多阅读一些短小精悍的美文,多写写自己的心情故事和对生活学习的感悟。只有平时多用心,做题时才能调动自己的背景知识和情感。
