中三.完形填空15’
I was a single parent of four small children, working at a low-paid job. Money was always not enough, but we had a roof over our heads, 41 on the table, clothes on our backs, and if not a lot, always enough. Not knowing we were poor, my kids (孩子们) just thought I was 42__. I’ve always been glad about that.
It was Christmas time, and although there wasn’t enough 43 for a lot of gifts, we planned to hold a family party. And the big 44 for the kids was the fun of Christmas shopping.
They planned weeks ahead of time, asking 45 what they wanted for Christmas. Luckily, I had saved $120 for them to buy 46 .
The big day arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and 47 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered(散开). We had two hours to shop; then we would 48 again at the “Santa’s Workshop”.
Driving home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits, 49 my younger daughter, Ginger, who was unusually quiet. She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies — fifty-cent candies! I was so angry, but I didn’t say anything 50 we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, ready to be 51 again. This is what she told me.
“I was looking `52 , thinking of what to buy, and I 53 to read the little cards on the
‘Giving Trees.’ One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she 54 for Christmas was a doll(玩具娃娃). So I took the card off the tree and 55 the doll for her. We have so much and she doesn’t have anything.”
I never felt so rich as I did that day.
