Gary and Ben were twin brothers who worked in a department store owned by their father. After the father died, they took charge of the store. Everything went well until the day a twenty-dollar bill disappeared. Gary had left the bill on the desk. But when he returned, the money was gone.
Gary then asked his brother Ben, “Did you see that twenty-dollar bill on the desk?” Ben said that he had not. But Gary did not let it go and kept questioning. “Twenty-dollar bills can’t get up and walk away by themselves! Surely you must have seen it.” “I said I didn’t see it!” Ben replied angrily.
The argument divided the young men and they could no longer work together. Later, a wall was built in the center of the store. And it was there for twenty years.
One day, a strange man came to the store. He walked in and asked Gary, “How long have you been here?” Gary replied that he’d been there all his life. “Then you are the person I’m looking for, since I must say sorry to you,” he said. “Twenty years ago, I was very hungry. I entered this store from the back door and saw a twenty-dollar bill on the desk. And I took it. All these years I haven’t been able to forget that. I have to come back and say sorry to you.”
The stranger felt surprised when seeing tears went up in the eyes of the middle-aged man in front of him. “Would you please go to next door and tell the same story to the man in the store?” Gary asked. Then something surprised the stranger even more after he told his story again, the two middle-aged men shook hands with each other and cried together in the front of the wall of the store.
After twenty years, the wall in the store finally came down.

D. Listen to the passage and complete the following sentences (听短文,完成下列内容,每空格限填一词) (共10分)
It was the first day of the second grade, and Sarah had been looking forward to this moment. When having breakfast, Sarah dropped some food on her shirt, so she had to change into her second-best clothes, blue jeans and a Jonas Brothers T-shirt.
After breakfast Sarah rushed out to the estate door to catch the school bus. She was just in time to catch the bus. When she was just reaching the door the bus driver opened it. The door hit right in Sarah’s face and blood came down from her nose. The driver wanted to send her home, but she refused, "It is the most important day of the year! I can’t miss it!"
Before classes, Sarah went to her favorite swing. When rising high, she saw her best friend Jack and waved to him with one hand. Unfortunately, she flew out of the swing and landed hard on the sand, breaking a leg and an arm. As she lay in the sand, she noticed a shiny thing on the ground beside her. With her good hand she took it.
When Sarah’s mother rushed into the hospital she was surprised by what she saw: her girl was lying in bed with an arm and a leg in the splint (夹板), a broken nose, and blood on her second-best clothes. Expecting to see her child cry, she was surprised when she saw a big, bright smile on Sarah’s face.
"Sarah, look at you!" her mother cried. "You were hurt so badly and why are you smiling?"
"Look, Mommy, I found a diamond!" Sarah laughed.
Life can be like that. Sometimes it is full of pain, sometimes luck also comes.
