It was my seventh year teaching first grade.
One mid-March day, the kids were at break between classes, in expectation of the coming carnival at noon when something terrible happened, on a child’s level 31 — someone stole the Twinkie out of Abby’s desk.
Irritated, I stopped all morning work, 32 its return.
No Twinkie appeared.
Five hours passed, but the class still sat with their heads down, listening to me 33 on the importance of honesty and being 34 for one’s own mistakes.
I was really sweating it out. Was I 35 ? No, my heart told me. All we needed was the 36 .
My afternoon aide arrived. A mother of four, she 37 to take the kids one by one into the hall for questioning.
When the time came for 38 to be questioned, it was over within a minute. He came back into the classroom, tears filling his eyes, hands shaking, hanging onto the doorway 39 he’d collapse if he let go. He took deep breaths, trying not to cry. “I took the Twinkie. I’m sorry,” he said in a small voice. Then he covered his face with his hands in 40 .
I was livid(脸色铁青). We had been lied to for more than five hours, with nothing 41 . Something must be done, so let the ones who 42 throw the first stone. “Does anyone have anything to say to Peter?” I asked.
There was 43 for at least a minute. Perhaps the kids were measuring their words…
Then, one little girl 44 her hand. She stood straight and said in a strong voice, “We 45 you, Peter.”
The words 46 through our heads. Forgiveness... one of the last things Jesus taught us as he was dying on the 47 . Forgiveness.
Suddenly, all twenty-eight kids raced to Peter and 48 him with hugs and pats on his back, cheers, and laughter. It was like the prodigal son had returned home.
I learned that day how forgiveness heals. How good it feels to say, “I forgive you,” and how 49 it is to hear that you are forgiven.
And the Twinkie? Abby never did eat it. She gave it back to Peter with a 50 hug and smile.

第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The WHO’s official total number of Ebola cases has reached 13,703 – a big jump from the10,141 cases it reported four days ago. But Dr Aylward said that was mainly the result of the data being updated with old cases, rather than new cases arising.
“Do we feel confident that the response is now getting an upper hand on the virus? Yes, we are seeing a slowing rate of new cases, very definitely,” Dr Aylward said.
However, Dr Aylward also urged people not to celebrate prematurely over any apparent downturn in the epidemic (传染病). “I’m terrified that the information will be misinterpreted and people will think Ebola is under control,” he said.
Any reduction in the battle against the virus might lead to “an oscillating(震荡的) pattern where the disease moves up and down”.
The improvement in Liberia seems to be due to a combination of more treatment facilities, better contact tracing and safer burial practices, together leading to fewer new infections from Ebola patients.
In Sierra Leone the number of cases continues to increase in some areas. “We’re still seeing this thing burning quite hot in parts of Sierra Leone,” Dr Aylward said
Tracing the progress of individual patients, the WHO estimates an overall death rate of 70 percent, though people who receive treatment in a well-equipped clinic are slightly less likely to die. The WHO plans to set up 56 Ebola clinics with 4,700 beds in West Africa. Of these 15 clinics with 1,050 beds are already operational and another 22 clinics are expected to open during November.
Meanwhile, two former NATO(北约) secretaries-general and dozens of leading European politicians have urged the alliance to send troops, aircraft and ships to west Africa to help contain the Ebola crisis.
51. In the first paragraph, “cautious optimism” probably refers to ______
