As it got __2__， she began to look for him around the house. Then she heard the mew of a cat, __3__， and saw Hank in her neighbor's tree.

It's a secret well­known by flower lovers. They expect flowers to come out with quiet and soft encouragement. So it should be no surprise that the yellow flower growing in a large red field trembled(颤抖) with strong feelings. He trembled because he felt different. He was the only yellow flower flowering in a field of red plants, whatever they were. He knew walkers stopped and stared before walking on. He knew he was something special, the only thing of his kind. And the only thing of anything is always a very lonely thing, no matter what thing it is. Until one bright midnight, as he danced in the summer wind, a plant spoke to him. Yes, a voice came from one red plant in the field. This plant, whatever it was, spoke to him by saying this, “You're not really alone, you know.” No one and nothing had ever spoken to him before. To say he was surprised would be an understatement(轻描淡写的陈述). Remember, flowers feel strong feelings. “You've been wrong before，” the red plant went on. “You're a rose. So am I. So are we all, all of us in this big field. If you're yellow, with a different bloom, __▲__. But it's all of us, together, that make the walkers stop walking to see. Not just you. Together, we're a garden. Alone, you're only one pretty but very small blossom.” It was funny that this changed things for the yellow flower, who now realized he was really a yellow rose. It was funny that those few words changed everything. Because nothing is really the only thing of anything, no matter how special that one thing is. We stop feeling different and lonely when we understand we're part of something larger than ourselves. (　B　)1.Why did the yellow flower tremble with strong feelings? A．Because he knew he was a yellow rose. B．Because he felt different and special. C．Because he grew in a large field. D．Because he always felt very lonely. (　A　)2.How did the yellow flower feel when he first heard the voice of “a red rose”？ A．Shocked.　　　B．Scared. C．Upset. D．Pleased. (　C　)3.Which of the following can be put in the __▲__ in Paragraph 4? A.your color will make you the most beautiful B.you will not be able to feel the strong feelings C．your color only adds to the beauty of this field D．you will not be seen by walkers walking by (　B　)4.What does the writer mainly want to tell us? A．Something is really special. B．Everything is part of something. C．Anything can be changed. D．Nothing matters except yourself.
