But in their new operation, they 38 a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this basic selection they 39 one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no 40 . Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was 41 four cents.

I believe that the success of this 31 loved concoction(混合物) lies not in the brand of peanut butter, 32 in the jelly. The right jelly 33 the plate, and homemade is the only choice.‎ My mother-in-law was the jelly maker in this family. This limited choice was a welcome 34 in the days of toddlers, siblings and puppies. All I did was to 35 baby food jars, which my mother-in-law would seal with wax(蜡) and 36 back home with us. 37 I wanted to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich , all I had to do was reach for one of little jars. Jelly making was just a way of 38 for my mother-in-law. She always did it, setting the 39 jelly on the shelves .‎ My father-in-law died several years ago and this past December, she also 40 ‎ ‎. Among the things in the house to be divided by her children were the 41 canned goods.‎ The other day I reached my pantry(储物间) for jelly for a quick sandwich. Sitting all alone on the far side of the shelf was a small jar of grape jelly, whose lid was 42 in places. 43 on it were “GR” for grape and the year when the jelly was made.‎ As I picked up the jar, I suddenly realized something that I had 44 to see earlier. This was the last jar we would ever have from the 45 , loving hands . We hardly ever opened a jar of jelly at table without 46 about those thousands of little jars she had filled. It seems like such a small thing, and most days it was something that was 47 for granted. ‎ No longer was it just a jar of jelly. It was the end of a family 48 . We have hundreds of pictures and many more memories that we expect to 49 the years and to pass on to our children. The jar of jelly won’t keep that long. It will either have to be eaten or 50 ...but not today.‎ ‎31.A. consequently B. mentally C. universally D. absolutely ‎32. A. rather than B. but rather C. or rather D. other than ‎33.

It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. ‎ After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother would help my father walk slowly on the country road, along which there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun gently shone through the leaves. All of these made up the most beautiful picture in the world. ‎ The doctor had said my father would 59 in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk 60 . All of us were worried about him.‎ ‎“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.‎ ‎“Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like 61 with your mom. I like this kind of life.” 62 his eyes, I know ‎ he loves my mother deeply.‎ ‎ 63 I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. ___64 from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life.
