Then Tom girded up his loins, so to speak, and went to work to "get his verses. " Sid had learned his lesson days before. Tom bent all his energies to the memorizing of five verses, and he chose part of tJie Sermon on the Mount, because he could find no verses that were shorter. At the end of half an hour Tom had a vague general idea of his lesson, but no more, for his mind was traversing the whole field of human thought, and his hands were busy with distracting recreations. Mary took his book to hear him recite, and he tried to find his way through the fog:
"Blessed are the—a—a—"
"Poor"—"Yes—poor; blessed are the poor—a—a—"
"In spirit-"
"In spirit; blessed are the poor in spirit, for they—they—"
"THEIRS—" x
"For THEIRS. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn, for they—they—"
"Sh—"
"For they—a—"
"S, H, A—"
"For they S, H—Oh, I don't know what it is!"
"SHALL!"
"Oh, SHALL! for they shall—for they shall—a—a—shall mourn—a—a—blessed are they that shall—they that—a—they that shall mourn, for they shall—a—shall WHAT? Why don't you tell me, Mary?—what do you want to be so mean for?"
"Oh, Tom, you poor thick-headed thing, I'm not teasing you. I wouldn't do that. You must go and learn it again. Don't you be discouraged, Tom, you'll manage it—and if you do, I'll give you something ever so nice. There, now, that's a good boy. "
"All right! What is it, Mary, tell me what it is. "
"Never you mind, Tom. You know if I say it's nice, it is nice. "
"You bet you that's so, Mary. All right, I'll tackle it again. "
And he did "tackle it again"—and under the double pressure of curiosity and prospective gain he did it with such spirit that he accomplished a shining success. Mary gave him a brand-new "Barlow" knife worth twelve and a half cents; and the convulsion of delight that swept his system shook him to his foundations. True, the knife would not cut anything, but it was a "sure-enough" Barlow, and there was inconceivable grandeur in that—though where the Western boys ever got the idea that such a weapon could possibly be counterfeited to its injury is an imposing mystery and will always remain so, perhaps. Tom contrived to scarify the cupboard with it, and was arranging to begin on the bureau, when he was called off to dress for Sunday-school.
In the first paragraph, the word "grim" (. . . a grim chapter... ) means______.
A.sacred
B.omniponent
C.cheerful
D.gloomy
听力原文:W: Good morning, Tom! How are you?
M: Not bad! What about you?
W: Fine. Tom, you didn’t show up yesterday evening, did you?
M: I am sorry I didn’t. I had planned to go to your party, but was caught up by a program about Oprah Winfrey. I simply could not help sticking to the television until it was too late for your party.
W: Oprah Winfrey?
M: Yes. She is a US talk show hostess, and the queen of all talk! Come on, haven’t you ever heard of her?
W: Oh, I remember. She is enormously influential, and it is said that her influence extends far beyond the media! She must have a distinguished family background, don’t you think so?
M: No. on the contrary, her birth place was actually notorious for its poverty. But as she applied herself to study and work, she later became America’s first African-American news anchor.
W: She is really great! Then, have you watched her talk show for a long time?
M: Of course! She is frank and genuine. She never spreads gossip or scandal!
W: That would certainly make a difference among all the trash TV we have today!
M: You bet! That program I watched last night will be shown again this afternoon.
W: Really! I will make sure not to miss it! Bye for now!
M: See you later!
