When I was a child in Minnesota,the watermelon was expensive. One of my father's friends,Tom,was a rich trader. He owned a large store in St Paul. Every summer,when the first watermelons arrived,Tom would call.
Dad and I would take a bus to Tom's place. We would sit on the edge of the dock（码头） happily and get ready for a big meal. Tom would take a big watermelon out,cut it up,give us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we three would put our faces in the watermelon,eating only the heart—the finest,sweetest and most seed-free（无籽的） part,and throw away the rest.
In my father's eyes,Tom was a real rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful trader. Later,I learned that my father thought that Tom was rich because of the way he lived his life. Tom knew when to stop working,get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.
No matter how much money we have,some of us will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don't take the time to sit at the “dock” and enjoy life's small pleasures（愉悦） ,your work is probably injuring（危害） your life.
When I grew up,I forgot the lesson I once learned at the dock because I was too busy as a doctor. Well,now I relearned it. Though I'm still busy working as a doctor,I will try to slow down and take the time to enjoy the small pleasures of my life.That's the heart of the watermelon.
46.When the first watermelons arrived,Tom would call .（仅填1词） 47.Tom would take a big watermelon out,cut it up,give us both a big piece and sit down next to us .（不超过5词） 48.&49.Fill in the blanks according to the passage.
Changes of My Ideas
When I was young I though Tom was rich because he was a successful trader.
Later My father told me he was rich because of the way he lived his life .（不超过6词）
When I grew up I was so busy that I forgot the lesson.
Now Now I try to slow down and spend time enjoying the small pleasures of my life .（不超过7词）
50.What's your understanding of “That's the heart of the watermelon.” Use your own words.
I think it refers to the writer's hope of enjoying life,and everyone should enjoy his or her own life. （结合自身实际 ，不超过20词）

When I was a child in Minnesota,the watermelon was expensive. One
of my father's friends,Tom,was a rich trader. He owned a large store in St
Paul. Every summer,when the first watermelons arrived,Tom would call.
Dad and I would take a bus to Tom's place. We would sit on the edge of
the dock（码头） happily and get ready for a big meal. Tom would take
a big watermelon out,cut it up,give us both a big piece and sit down next
to us. Then we three would put our faces in the watermelon,eating only
the heart—the finest,sweetest and most seed-free（无籽的） part,and throw
away the rest.
In my father's eyes,Tom was a real rich man. I always thought it was
because he was such a successful trader. Later,I learned that my father
thought that Tom was rich because of the way he lived his life. Tom
knew when to stop working,get together with friends and eat only the
heart of the watermelon.
No matter how much money we have,some of us will never be free
enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don't take the time
to sit at the “dock” and enjoy life's small pleasures（愉悦）,your work is
probably injuring（危害） your life.
When I grew up,I forgot the lesson I once learned at the dock
because I was too busy as a doctor. Well,now I relearned it. Though I'm
still busy working as a doctor,I will try to slow down and take the time
to enjoy the small pleasures of my life.That's the heart of the watermelon.
46.When the first watermelons arrived,Tom would _____.（仅填1词）
47.Tom would take a big watermelon out,cut it up,give us both a big
piece and ___________________.（不超过5词）
call
sit down next to us
48.&49.Fill in the blanks according to the passage.
Changes of My Ideas When I was young I though Tom was rich because he was a successful
trader.
Later My father told me he was rich because of
_______________________.（不超过6词）
When I grew up I was so busy that I forgot the lesson.
Now Now I try to slow down and spend time
____________________________________.（不超过7词）
the way he lived his life
enjoying the small pleasures of my life
50.What's your understanding of “That's the heart of the watermelon.” Use
your own words.
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________（结合自身实际，不超过20词）
I think it refers to the writer's hope of enjoying life,and everyone should enjoy his or her own life.
