江西省赣州市十四县（市）2019届高三上学期英语期中考试试卷
I, a postman, married Kathy twenty-eight years ago. Our marriage life was filled with quarrels, swearing, throwing pots…—it was too much like 1. So I had an idea that our time as husband and 2 was about up but I didn't expect it would 3 with a fight.
We were 4 at home one evening after tea, one at each end of the table. I was 5a book, and Kathy just sat there. 6 she said, "I do love you, Harry." I was still in the book and said 7.
Then, "Harry, look at me." My 8 came up, smiled and went down again to my reading. Maybe I was in the wrong, and should have said something, 9 the book was too good.
"I'm sure all that reading's bad 10 your eyes," she commented. I went on reading, not looking up. She added, "My dad used to say that only fools read books."
The words 11 me and I couldn't resist replying, "He only said that because he didn't know how to read. He was 12."
Kathy never read books. She hated 13 like poison. She sneered(冷笑), "No need to be jealous of you. We've got more sense, and too much to do."
Then I was upset, but in a 14 way, "Let me read, anyway, won't you? It's an interesting book, and I'm tired."
She 15 out loud, "Tired? You ought to do some real work for a change instead of 16the streets with that stupid post-bag." She snatched the book out of my 17 and screamed, "Nothing but books, books, books," throwing the book into the fire.
This really 18 me, so I slapped(掌掴) her across the face, not very hard but I did.
One day, a month after 19 the book, I came back from work and found a note waiting for me, "I am going away and not coming back."
We 20 six years after we married.
