Disaster! This word really meant that morning. I had a toothache. And I’d been
in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you
won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook
my head stubbornly and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till
my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started
calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally,
at about lunchtime, I got lucky.
“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”
I took keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the
dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice?
Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?
In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare
walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and
placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.
When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is
very good.”
“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.
“Come on! He is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the
assistant said.
“The artwork?” I was puzzled.
The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right
where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that
moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.
What a relief!

A. The dentist’s agreeing to treat her at very short notice.
B. The dentist’s being as busy as the other dentists.
C. The surroundings of the dentist’s office.
D. The laughing assistant of the dentist.
26. Why did the author suddenly smile?
A. Because the dentist came at last.
B. Because she saw a picture on the ceiling.
C. Because she could relax in the chair.
D. Because the assistant kept comforting her.

C. A friend in need is a friend indeed. D. Put oneself in others shoes.

Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater, employees were
busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups. It was a scene that had been
repeated many times in the theaters 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup
was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group
began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s
end.
    The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old
theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with
teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed
Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a
small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.
   Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the
Plaza to compete. He added that the theaters location (位置) was also a reason. “This
used to be the center of town,” he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and
warehouses.”
  Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning
the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were
abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a
local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where
the theater is located.
    The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last
time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater had shown its last movie. The theater will be
missed.
28. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?
A. It made room for new equipment.
B. It signaled the close of the theater.
C. It was done with the help of the audience.
D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.
29. Why was The Last Picture Show put on?
A. It was an all-time classic.
B. It was about the history of the town.
C. The audience requested it.
D. The theater owner found it suitable.
30. What will probably happen to the building?
A. It will be repaired.
B. It will be turned into a museum.
C. It will be knocked down.
D. It will be sold to the city government.
31. What can we infer about the audience?
A. They are disappointed with Bradford.
B. They are sad to part with the old theater.
