Ⅲ. 完形填空
Avery and I are good friends, but once something unpleasant happened when we both tried for roles in Alice in Wonderland.
Avery really
hoped
1 to be Alice and I was sure she could get the role. However, it
turned out
2 that I was picked to be Alice and Avery only got the part of the March Hare. “Do you want to practise together with me?” I asked. “Sorry, I'm busy this week,” said Avery,
without
3 looking at me. “And I will be always busy.”
That night at dinner, my parents noticed I was not that
excited
4 about getting the lead role. They wondered what happened. “Well, Avery was not picked to be Alice, but I was. She was unhappy. Maybe she will throw away our
friendship
5.”
My father said, “Don't worry about it. I think this is a
chance
6 for you to be an extra - good friend.”
“Dad's right,” said my mother. “Sometimes
when
7 our friends do well, we may have feelings of envy and don't know how to act. Try giving
her
8 a little time, space and understanding, and she will change her mind soon.”
Over the next week, I tried my best to give Avery some
space
9. Then one day, on the way to our practice, I
met
10
her. “I just want to say, you're such a great actress when acting as the March Hare,” I smiled. She seemed happy and
explained
11 how she understood the role. When I asked her to help me with my role, she agreed and smiled too. She
even
12 said sorry to me for acting that way at first. Later, we became
closer
13 to each other.
I've learned that people often have a
difficult
14 time dealing with envy and disappointment (失望). If you have similar
experiences
15, you could try taking my parents' advice. Give your friend a little time, space and understanding. This might be the perfect time to be an extra - good friend.
