卖火柴的小女孩
  A天气冷得可怕。正在下雪,黑暗的夜幕开始垂了下来。这是一年的最后一天——除夕。   
  一个卖火柴的小女孩在街上走着,她的衣服又旧又破,脚上穿着一双妈妈的大拖鞋。她的口袋里装着许多盒火柴,一路上不住口地叫着:“卖火柴呀,卖火柴呀!”人们都在买节日的食品和礼物,有谁会理她呢?
  中午了,她一根火柴也没卖掉,谁也没有给她一个铜板。
  她走着走着,在一幢楼房的窗前停下了,室内的情景吸引住了她。哟,屋里的圣诞树多美呀,那两个孩子手里的糖果纸真漂亮。
  看着人家幸福的情景,小女孩想到了生病的妈妈和死去的奶奶,伤心地哭了。哭有什么用呢?小女孩擦干眼泪,继续向前走去。
  “卖火柴呀,卖火柴呀!叔叔,阿姨,买一些火柴吧!”
  可是,人们买完节日礼物,都匆匆地回家去,谁也没有听到她的叫卖声。雪花落在她金黄色的长头发上,看上去是那么美丽,可谁也没有注意到她。
  小女孩走着走着,一辆马车飞奔过来,她吓得赶快逃开,大拖鞋跑掉了。马车过去后,她赶紧找鞋。那是妈妈的拖鞋呀,妈妈还躺在床上呢。可是,一只找不到了,另一只又被一个男孩当足球踢走了。小女孩只好光着脚走路,寒冷的雪将她的小脚冻得又红又肿。
  天渐渐黑了,街上的行人越来越少,最后只剩下小女孩一个人了。街边的房子里都亮起了灯光,窗子里还传出了笑声。食品铺里飘出了烤鹅的香味,小女孩饿得肚子咕咕直叫。小女孩好想回家,可是没卖掉一根火柴,她拿什么钱去给妈妈买药呢?    雪越下越大,街上像铺了一层厚厚的白地毯.,
  小女孩一整天没吃没喝,实在走不动了,她在一个墙角里坐下来。她用小手搓着又红又肿的小脚,一会儿,小手也冻僵了。真冷啊,要是点燃一根小小的火柴,也可以暖暖身子呀。     
  她终于抽出了一根火柴,在墙上一擦,哧!小小的火苗冒了出来。小女孩把手放在火苗上面,小小的火光多么美丽,多么温暖呀!她仿佛觉得自己坐在火炉旁,那里面火烧得多旺啊。小女孩刚想
  伸出脚暖和一下,火苗熄灭了,火炉不见了,只剩下烧过的火柴梗。
  她又擦了一根,哧!火苗又蹿了出来,发出亮亮的光。墙被照亮了,变得透明了,她仿佛看见了房间里的东西。桌上铺着雪白的台布,上面放满了各种各样好吃的东西。一只烧鹅突然从盘子里跳出来,背上插着刀叉,蹒跚地向她走来。几只大面包也从桌上跳下来,一个个像士兵一样排着队向她走来。就在这时,火柴又熄灭了,她面前只剩下一面又黑又冷的墙。
  小女孩舍不得擦火柴了,可她冻得浑身直抖。她又擦了一根,哧!一朵光明的火焰花开了出来。哗!多么美丽的圣诞树呀,这是她见过的最大最美的圣诞树。圣诞树上挂着许多彩色的圣诞卡,那上面画有各种各样的美丽图画。树上还点着几千枝蜡烛,一闪一闪的好像星星在向她眨眼问好。小姑娘把手伸过去,唉,火柴又熄灭了,周围又是一片漆黑。
  小姑娘又擦了一根火柴,她看到一片烛光升了起来,变成了一颗颗明亮的星星。有一颗星星落下来了,在天上划出一条长长的火丝。所有的星星也跟着落下来了,就像彩虹一样从天上一直挂到地上。
  小女孩又擦亮一根火柴,火光把四周照得通亮,奶奶在火光中出现了。,奶奶朝着她微笑,那么温柔,那么慈祥。
  “奶奶……”小女孩激动得热泪盈眶,扑进了奶奶的怀抱。
  “奶奶,请把我带走吧,我知道,火柴一熄灭,你就会不见了!”小女孩把手里的火柴一根接一根地擦亮,因为她非常想把奶奶留下来。这些火柴发出强烈的光芒,照得比白天还要亮。奶奶从来也
  没有像现在这样美丽和高大。奶奶把小女孩抱起来,搂在怀里。
  她们两人在光明和快乐中飞起来了。她们越飞越高,飞到没有寒冷,没有饥饿的天堂里去,和上帝在一起。
  火柴熄灭了,四周一片漆黑,小姑娘幸福地闭上了眼睛。
  新年早晨,雪亭了,风小了,太阳升起来了,照得大地金灿灿的。大人们来到街上,大家祝贺着新年快乐。小孩们穿着新衣,愉快地打着雪仗j 
  这时,人们看到了一个小女孩冻死在墙角,B她脸上放着光彩,嘴边露着微笑。在她周围撒满一地的火柴梗,小手中还捏着一根火柴。
  C“她使自己暖和一下。”人们说。谁也不知道,她曾经看到过多么美丽的东西,她曾经是多么光荣地和祖母在一起,走到新的幸福中去。

填空题

Ice Cream Tester Has a Sweet Job


John Harrison has what must be the most wanted job in America. He’s the official taster for Edys Grand Ice Cream, one of the nation’s best-selling brands.
His taste buds are insured for $1 million. He gets to sample 60 ice creams a day at Edys headquarters in Oakland, California. (1)
But the life of an ice cream taster, I realized after I met him last week, isn’t all Cookies n’ Cream — a flavor which Harrison invented, by the way. (2)
For one thing, he doesn’t swallow on the job. Like a coffee taster, Harrison spits. Using a gold spoon to avoid "off" flavors, he takes a smallish bite, swishes it around to introduce it to all 9,000 or so taste buds, smack-smack-smacks his lips to aerate the sample, and then gently inhales to bring the aroma up through the back of his nose. (3)
Then, no matter how heavenly it is, he deposits it into a trash can. (4)
During the workweek, other sacrifices must be made: no onions, garlic or cayenne pepper; and no caffeine. (5)
But it’s all a small price to pay for what he calls the world’s best job. (6)
Yet, he has never lost his love for its cold, creamy sweetness. (7) On these occasions, he swallows, consuming about a quart weekly.
Americans eat 23.2 quarts person of ice cream and other frozen diary products annually.
(8) Vanilla, the best-selling variety. You should never call it plain vanilla. It’s a very complex flavor, he says.
The night after we met, I had a plain salad for dinner and sadly thought about my future. I have to either do what Harrison does — learn to spit instead of swallow — or start interviewing more celery growers.
A. Caffeine will block the taste buds, he says, so breakfast is a cup of herbal tea.
B. With each step, he’s evaluating whether the ice cream conveys a harmonious balance of dairy, sweetness and added ingredients — the three flavor components of ice cream.
C. What flavor does the best-trained ice-cream palate in America prefer
D. And when he isn’t doing that, he travels, buying Edys in supermarkets all over the country so that he can spot check for perfect appearance, texture and flavor.
E. He even orders it in restaurants for dessert.
F. A full stomach makes for a dull palate.
G. No, it’s rigorous work, requiring discipline and selflessness.
H. His family has been in the ice cream business in one way or another for four generations, so Harrison has spent his entire life with it.
