The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found out the box was empty.He yelled at her, stating, \"Don't you know, when you give someone a present, there is supposed to be something inside? The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried, \"Oh, Daddy, it's not empty at all.I blew kisses into the box.They're all for you, Daddy.\"
The father was crushed.He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for
her forgiveness.
Only a short time later, an accident took the life of the child.It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many years and, whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
In a very real sense, each one of us, as humans beings, have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family members, friends, and God.There is simply no other possession, anyone could hold, more precious than this.

Studies show that laughter is something that makes you feel calm or relaxed for both physical and psychological wounds though it may seem futile to laugh in the face of pain and fear.
When Dan Rather interviewed comedian Bill Cosby just one week after his son, Ennis, was killed, Cosby said, “I think it is time for me to tell people that we have to laugh.You can turn painful situations around through laughter.If you can find humor in anything, you can survive it.”
Call it a flashlight for dark times: laughter just seems to adjust attitude better than anything else.Inspirational speaker Steve Rizzo recalls a TV interview with an injured firefighter a few days after 9.11.The man had fallen more than 30 stories in one of the towers and had broken a leg.Everyone was crying, and the reporter asked, “How is it that you’ve come out of this alive?” He looked at her and without missing a beat, said, “Look, lady, I’m from New York and I’m a firefighter; that’ all you need to know.”
“Everyone laughed and though the laughter was only a couple of seconds,” says Rizzo.“Sometimes that’s all you need to catch your second breath.Laughter gives you that couple of seconds.You’re sending a message to your brain, and the message is: If you can still laugh even a little among the pain, you are going to be OK.” Of course, there is a difference between laughing off a serious situation and laughing off the fear that results.The firefighter was doing the latter, states Rizzo, the author of Becoming a Humorous Being, and so should we.“If there is anything we have learnt from 9.11, it’s how precious life really is,” she says.“We have to send a message that our spirit won’t die.One important thing that unites us is our ability to laugh.”
60.The writer uses the examples of the comedian and the firefighter to show .
A.laughter is a good way to get rid of pain and fear B.laughter is the best way to cure psychological wounds
C.it is your attitude that decides whether you can survive the pain or not D.laughing off a serious situation is different from laughing off the fear that results
61.We can infer from the passage that Steve Rizzo is . A.a reporter B.a soldier C.a firefighter D.a doctor
62.The underlined word futile in the first paragraph means . A.hopeless B.useless C.careless D.worthless
63.From the passage, we can know that Americans are . A.really inspired after 9.11 B.hardly united after 9.11 C.nearly surprised by 9.11 D.greatly hurt by 9.11

49.D 【解析】该句句意为“我真的很羡慕你。”do在此处是加强语气的助动词,意为“确实,的确,真的”。

63.D 【解析】主旨推测题。根据文章最后段可以推测出美国人受到了9.11的严重的伤害。所以应该选D。
