五、阅读单选
One day, when I was a new student in high school, I saw a boy from my class walking home from school. His name was Kyle. He was carrying all his books. I thought to myself: “Why would anyone bring home all his books on Friday He must really be a bookworm.” As I was walking, I saw some kids running toward him. They knocked all his books out of his arms and pushed him to the ground.
His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw tears in his eyes. I felt sad and I went directly to him.
As I handed him his glasses, I said, “Those guys are fools.” He looked at me and said, “Thanks!” There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude. I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. Then I invited him to play football on Saturday with me and my friends. He agreed. We played together and had fun on that weekend. The more I got to know Kyle, the more I liked him. Over the next three years, Kyle and I became best friends.
When we were seniors, we began to think about college. We would go to different schools, but I knew we would always be friends.
