一、完形填空(10分)
We could not go for a walk that afternoon. There was such cold wind and heavy rain that we all stayed indoors. I was 1 of it. I never liked long walks, especially in winter. I used to hate coming home 2 Bessie, the nursemaid (保姆), always scolded(训斥)me. I knew I was different from my cousins, Eliza, John and Georgiana Reed. They were taller and stronger than me, and they were 3.
These 4 usually spent their time crying and shouting, but today they were sitting 5 around their mother in the sitting room. I wanted to join the family circle, but Mrs Reed, my aunt, refused. “No, I'm sorry, Jane. Until I hear from Bessie, or see for 6, that you are really trying to behave better, I can't 7 you as a good, happy child, like my children.”
“What does Bessie say I have done?!” I asked angrily.
“Jane, it is not polite to 8 me in that way. If you cannot speak pleasantly, be quiet.”
I rushed out of the sitting room and into the small room next door, where I chose a book from the bookcase. I climbed onto the window-seat and pulled the curtains(窗帘), so that I was completely 9. I sat there for a while. Sometimes, I looked out of the window at the pouring rain. But mostly, I studied the book and was fascinated(深深吸引)by the story. Lost in the world of 10, I forgot my sadness and loneliness. I was only afraid that my secret hiding-place might be discovered.
