Ⅰ.完形填空(20分)
On a sunny afternoon, I sat on a seat in the park．I could see two 1 racing on their skateboards(滑板)．The one in front was laughing and calling to the other to go faster．The one 2 seemed angry and hurt．He was trying to follow his elder brother.
It made me think of myself as a boy．I often 3 myself with my elder brother, Paul．He was better than me at everything．I tried hard to 4 him．But I never could．I felt angry with myself and promised to beat him one day.
I waited and waited 5 the special evening came, the evening of my first victory over Paul．We had our final exam results and 6 were excellent．At dinner I wanted to show them to my parents 7 ．I waited for Paul to speak first．Instead of saying a word, he just ate a little and then went to his room.
I didn't understand．What was happening Then it hit me．Paul had failed his exams! I was finally 8 than Paul! But I didn't feel happy or proud．I only felt sorry for my poor brother．Victory was not 9 ．It had a bad taste.
I found Paul crying in his room silently．I put my arms around him and said, “Don't worry, Paul．I still 10 you．You're the best.” Paul held my hand, “No, you're the best, the best brother in the world！”
I looked again at the two brothers, smiled and said to myself, “Having a good brother is better than winning a race．That's true.”
