I have spent years of my life traveling all over the world. When I arrive in a new country or city, usually I am very 36 and go to bed early. For this 37 my first day or night in any new place is always quiet and very 38 happens. 39 my first night in Algeciras was very different. This night was very 40 and unusual.
At that time 41 in Southern Spain was a dirty and 42 looked-after city. I arrived late in the evening by 43 . As soon as I got off the boat, I went to look for a 44 . I found a small hotel not far from the boat.
This hotel looked 45 and untidy from the outside. But I was very tired and did not know my 46 around the city of Algeciras. And so I decided to stay in this 47 hotel on the quay(碼頭). I also decided to stay in this hotel for another 48 . The moon was full and it was a clear, 49 night. From the hotel I could 50 the sea. I could see the huge rock of Gibraltar in the bright moonlight.
The hotel had a narrow 51 and no name. When I went through this doorway, I had to climb up narrow and dark stairs to the first floor. I 52 a small cupboard with a desk in front of it. This was the hotel office.
An untidy and tired woman was sitting beside the 53 . When I said I wanted a room for the night, she took me 54 some more stairs to a room on the second floor. Inside this room the landlord was sitting playing cards with some friends. He was 55 his game of cards and I was simply a nuisance(討厭的人). He looked at me when the woman told him that I wanted a room. Then he said, Room Five, and turned back to his game of cards.

科目：高中英語 來源：2013屆江蘇省鹽城市明達中學高三上學期學情調研考試英語試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解
After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.
During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎縮癥). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.
I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:
Dear Dick,
My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.
I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.
Your friend,
Matthew
