I got lots of interesting experiences in a free school. At first I couldn’t believe it. There were no 41 in rows or loud-sounding bells, nor did anyone have to go to 42 . Although we lived “in”, 43 made us go to bed at a certain time; there was no “ lights out”.
The 44 thing was that practically all the students went to class, and very few people stayed up late at night. Only the new people stayed up or 45 class. The new ones always went wild 46 , but his wildness never lasted long. The freedom took some getting used to. Our teachers treated us like _47 ; never did we have to 48_ “ stand up”, “ sit down”, “ speak out”. I don’t 49 one student who didn’t try his best.
The subjects were the same as those in the ___50_____ school, but what a difference in the method! For example, in botany (植物学) we had 51__ classes in the spring or fall, but instead we planted two gardens, a vegetable garden and a flower garden. Then in winter we each studied a few 52 things about what we had grown. In math the students built three different sizes of storerooms---small ones 53 , but usable. They did this instead of having lessons in the classroom. They really had a 54 time, too, designing everything, drawing the blueprints(蓝图;设计图), figuring out the angles and so on. I didn’t take 55__ . But I could do the basic things with numbers. That’s 56 .
57_ I think I am a 58 person for having gone to the school. I can read and write as well as anyone else of my age, and I think better. That’s probably a real big ___59 between the free school and the regular school--- the amount of 60 .
41.A.desks B. lights C. books D. windows
42.A. home B. bed C. class D. work
43.A. teachers B. parents C. nobody D. somebody
44.A. sad B. last C. good D. strange

I was caught in the war and put to prison.I was sure that I was to be killed,I became terribly nervous.I reached in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes(香烟),which had 36__ their search.I found one and because of my 37 hands,I could only get it to my lips.But I had no 38 .
I looked 39 the bars(铁栏)at my jailer(狱警).He did not make eye contact with me.I called out to him,“Have you got a light?” He looked at me,and came over to 40 my cigarette.
As he came close and lit the match,his eyes met with mine.At that moment,I smiled I don't know 41 I did that,Perhaps it was 42 ,perhaps it was because,when you get very close,one to another,it is very hard not to 43 .In any case,I smiled.It was 44 a spark(火花)jumped across the distance between our two hearts.I know he didn't want to,but my smile jumped through the bars and caused a smile on his lips.He lit my cigarette but stayed near,looking at me 45_ in the eyes and continuing to smile.
I kept smiling at him,now 46 of him as a person and not just a jailer.And his looking at me seemed to have a new 47 ,too.“Do you have kids?” he asked.
“Yes,here,here.”I took out my wallet and nervously searched for the pictures of my family.He, too,took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his 48 and hopes for them.My eyes were filled with 49 .w*w^w.k&s#5@u.c~o*mI said that I feared that I'd never see my family again,never have the chance to see them grow up.Tears came to his eyes,too.
Suddenly, 50 ,he unlocked my cell(牢房)and silently led me out.Out of the prison,quietly and by 51 routes,out of the town.There,at the edge of town,he set me 52 .And without another word,he turned back toward the town.
My life was 53 by a smile.
Yes, the smile—the unaffected,unplanned,natural connection between people.I really believe that if that part of you and that part of me could 54 each other,we wouldn’t be enemies.We couldn’t have 55 or envy or fear.

Dear son,
The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.
If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I 36 teaching it to you. If, when I speak to you, I 37 the same things thousand and one times, do not 38 me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story 39 you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a 40 , neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I 41 , in order that you wanted to bathe. When you see my 42 little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking (嘲弄) smile. I taught you 43 to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life…. When at some moment I lose the memory or the 44 of our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember, and if I cannot do it, do not become nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you 45 to me.
If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well 46 I need to and when not. When my 47 legs do not allow me to walk, give me your 48 , the same way I did when you gave your first 49 . And when someday I say to you that I do not want to 50 any more — that I want to rest forever, do not get angry. Someday you will understand.
Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that, 51 my mistakes, I always wanted the 52 thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent (无可奈何) for seeing me 53 you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you 54 living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and 55 . I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.
I love you, Son.
