阅读下列短文, 从下面每个小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

One day, Ben was playing basketball in the living room, breaking a vase. To cover his terrible action, the frightened boy glued the pieces together and put the vase back to its place.

That evening her mother noticed the cracks (裂纹). But to her surprise, the repair work was actually very good. At dinner time, she asked her boy if he broke the vase. Fearing punishment, the boy said that a neighbor's cat jumped in from the window and knocked the vase off. His mother was quite clear that her son was lying. However, she said nothing.

Before going to bed, the boy was asked to go to the study. In the study, his mother didn't look angry. On seeing her son carefully come in, she gave him one chocolate, saying "This chocolate is a reward (奖励) for your imagination: a window-opening cat!" At that moment, the boy felt the chocolate was a hot potato. “Did mom find holes in my excuse?” he thought. “You know, all the windows were closed.” Mother continued calmly and took out two chocolates into his hand, “An award for the perfect repair.”

Now with the chocolates in hand, the boy wished the ground to open up and bury him! He told the truth. “So I have to punish you for your lie.” The mother said with a serious voice and took back his chocolates. The boy bent down his head in shame. “But your honesty should have the award—a box of chocolates.” The mother suddenly bent to kiss his cheek, speaking gently to the crying boy, “My son, honesty values more than anything.”

"That is 3 !" Though he didn't know what a windmill was, he decided to give it a try. 

First he had to 4 all the materials. He dug through the rubbish with his cousin in the villages nearby and 5 his goal until he got what he wanted. 

Then he started to make the windmill. The moment his farm work finished in the fields, he threw himself on studying the materials, staying 6 till midnight. Finally, he made it after many 7 . He fixed the windmill on the top of a wood tower to catch wind. The villagers came to look. A long wire was used to connect to a bulb to the windmill. The wind blew and the windmill 8 . To their amazement, the bulb lit up. The villagers cheered. William threw his hands in the air and jumped 9 . To produce more energy, he built another windmill for his village. 

Bored into poverty, William didn't give up in the face of difficulties. He kept reading, taught himself and lit up the whole 10 .

I see a photograph in a magazine. A male lion is sitting on the 1 . Beside him is a baby lion, 2 the baby lion is giving him a painful bite on the back. But papa lion doesn't get angry, and he doesn't even try to 3 the baby away. He just sits there and allows 4 to be "attacked (攻击). "This is what dads do-they endure (承受) all the 5 .

A few years ago, at a baseball game in America, a/an 6 lost control of his bat. The 32-ouncewooden bat flew into the stands (看台). 7 hid (躲藏) under their seats to protect themselves except for one young boy--he hadn't been paying 8 . At the last moment, a 9 reached out and knocked the bat away 10 the boy's head. It was the boy's father. This is what dads do--they protect their children. 

I don't have 11 kids, but my brother has two daughters. They both have jobs and live away from home. One day, his elder daughter had a flat tyre while 12 on a busy highway. It was a/an 13 place for something like that to happen, but she didn't have to think twice about whom to call for help. My brother dropped what he was doing and drove 20 miles to 14 the tyre. This is what dads do--they help their children throughout their lives. 

Thanks to all the dads who endure, protect and help. They are the everyday 15 that their children need.
