‎2019届二轮复习完形填空专题 记叙文类型训练10篇之九 ‎【一】‎ One evening after dinner, Mr. and Mrs. Bond called a family meeting. “We've to make a __16__ decision，” Mr. Bond announced. “You see, your mother has been offered a post as codirector of a TV station in Chicago.__17__，the station is not here. After __18__ long and hard about it, we've __19__ that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”‎ Marc looked __20__， while his sister Rachel breathlessly started asking when they'd be moving. “It's surprising, but exciting，” she said. Marc simply said，“ I can't leave my __21__. I'd rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons！”‎ The Bonds hoped that by the time they moved to Chicago in August, Marc would grow more __22__ the idea of leaving. However, he showed no __23__ of accepting the decision, refusing to __24__ his belongings.‎ On the morning of their move, Marc was nowhere to be __25__. His parents called Tommy Lyons' house, but Mrs. Lyons said she hadn't seen Marc. Mrs. Bond became increasingly __26__ while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so __27__.‎ What they didn't know was that Marc had started to walk up to Tommy's house with a faint idea of __28__ in the Lyons' attic (阁楼) for a few days. However, as he walked along all the __29__ landscape of his neighborhood __30__ him of the things he and his family had done together: the green fence he and his mother had painted; the trees he and his sister used to __31__ while playing hideandseek; the park __32__ he and his father often took walks together. How much would these __33__ without his family, who made them special in the first place? Marc didn't spend __34__ answering that question but instead, he hurried back to his house, __35__ if there were any boxes of the right size to hold his record collection.‎ ‎16．A. different B．quick C．wise D．final ‎17．A.

I'd rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons！”可推知，Marc听到这样的决定感到很震惊。‎ ‎21．B　因为Marc还是一个孩子，所以他不想离开的应该是他的朋友。‎ ‎22．C　grow used to sth./doing sth.意为“慢慢地接受或习惯做什么”。‎ ‎23．B　此处是指他没有显示出接受这个决定的任何迹象。sign“迹象”，符合题意。其余选项都不符合题意。‎ ‎24．A　由上句内容可知，此处表示Marc拒绝整理他的个人物品。pack“收拾(行李)，装(箱)”。collect“收集”；tie“系，拴，捆”；pile“堆放”，均不符合语境。‎ ‎25．C　由下文可知，此处是指到处找都找不到Marc。故答案为C项。‎ ‎26．A　由“while”可知父亲对Marc的行为很生气，但母亲很担心(anxious)。‎ ‎27．C　句意：丈夫对孩子这种不负责任的举动很生气。impatiently“不耐烦地，没有耐心地”；irregularly“不规则地”；irresponsibly“不负责任地”；selflessly“无私地”。故答案为C项。‎ ‎28．A　由于Marc不愿意离开这个地方，所以他想到去Lyons家的阁楼上去躲几天。故答案为A项。‎ ‎29．B　由常识可知，只有那些熟悉的景色才能让他回忆起他和家人在一起做过的事情。故答案为B项。‎ ‎30．D　remind sb. of sth.“使某人想起……”，是固定短语。warn sb. of sth.意为“提醒某人注意某事”，不符合题意。‎ ‎31．C　由“while playing hideandseek”可知，能与捉迷藏相吻合的只有爬树，故答案为C项。‎ ‎32．B　“he and his father often took walks together”作park的定语，从句中缺少状语，故用where。‎ ‎33．C　此处是指没有了家人，这一切还有什么意义。mean意为“对某人重要(或有价值)”。‎ ‎34．A　由下句“hurried back to his house”可知，他没有花时间来回答这个问题。‎ ‎35．B　由语境可知，此处应是指他边往家赶边想到底还有没有合适的箱子来装他收藏的唱片。wonder意为“想知道”。‎ ‎【二】‎ The restaurant was only a quarter full when we got there. A couple in their thirties were seated about three tables away. Their __16__ was a little strange and it caught my attention. I've always been __17__ to the feelings of other people. I got the immediate __18__ that this couple could __19__ afford to eat out. At first I __20__ the thought, but it kept appearing into my head.‎ I began to feel a strong __21__ to pay for their meals. I wasn't rich, but I could __22__ it. So I followed my intention and __23__ the boss to pay their bill. I was told that they had __24__ their courses and might still order coffees, but so far the bill __25__ $ 75.‎ When he asked __26__ I was paying their bill I felt a little __27__ as I tried to cover my feelings. I finally replied, “When I saw that couple I got the feeling that they had to __28__ to get what they've got. So I decided to pay their bill.__29__ I don't want you to tell them who paid it or why. Just treat it as a(n) __30__.”When the couple went to settle their account a __31__ reaction could be heard throughout the restaurant. Later I asked the boss what happened. He said the young woman broke down in tears and said，“__32__ like this has ever happened to us before. We've never __33__ anything or been given anything. Things __34__ this just don't happen to us.” ‎ But it did happen. Now every time I think of the __35__ at the restaurant a smile spreads across my mouth, as I remember how once, I felt a strong desire to give freely to another.‎ ‎16．A. age B．bill C．appearance D．manner ‎17．A. polite B．sensitive C．nervous D．important ‎18．A. order B．hope C．impression D．promise ‎19．A. hardly B．proudly C．luckily D．freely ‎20．A. wrote B．felt C．followed D．ignored ‎21．A. regret B．desire C．success D．danger ‎22．A. change B．face C．afford D．prevent ‎23．A. reminded B．advised C．approached D．helped ‎24．A. refused B．prepared C．paid D．finished ‎25．A. came to B．depended on C．gave up D．turned against ‎26．A. why B．when C．how D．where ‎27．A. shy B．proud C．excited D．foolish ‎28．A. pretend B．continue C．expect D．struggle ‎29．A.

Something B．Everything C．Anything D．Nothing ‎33．A. experienced B．trusted C．won D．saved ‎34．A. besides B．for C．despite D．like ‎35．A. incident B．service C．joke D．food 答案与解析：‎ 本文是一篇记叙文。作者在饭店就餐时注意到一对夫妇的举止与众不同，猜测他们经济拮据。出于怜悯之心，作者匿名支付了他们的餐费。每当想起此事，作者总是难以抑制内心的喜悦之情。‎ ‎16．D　下一句提到作者对其他人的内心感受非常敏感，而人的内心感受往往通过举止表现出来，由此可推断作者发现这对夫妇的“举止”有一点奇怪，从而引起了作者的注意。C项表示“外表”，与下一句的内容不相符。‎ ‎17．B　上一句提到作者注意到这对夫妇的举止有一点奇怪，而空白处后面是“to the feelings”，故应用be sensitive to“对……敏感”。故选B。‎ ‎18．C　作者通过观察立刻感觉到这对夫妇几乎支付不起外出就餐的费用。因此C项符合语境。‎ ‎19．A　下一段提到作者产生了替这对夫妇埋单的念头，由此可推断作者认为他们几乎不能支付外出就餐的费用。所以hardly“几乎不”符合语境。‎ ‎20．D　起初，作者对这种想法不予理会，可是这种想法反复出现在作者的脑海中，挥之不去。因此D项符合语境。‎ ‎21．B　通过观察，作者开始产生一种替这对夫妇支付餐费的“欲望”。作者当时还没有付诸行动，所以A、C两项不正确；替别人埋单显然不是危险的事情，‎ 因此D项错误。‎ ‎22．C　虽然作者并不富裕，但是能够负担得起这笔费用。作者当时打算主动替对方埋单，而不只是“面对”这件事，所以B项不恰当。‎ ‎23．C　作者走近老板，想支付这对夫妇的饭费。所以approach“靠近，接近”符合题意。‎ ‎24．D　根据本句中的“and might still order coffees”可知他们已经吃完了饭菜，本句中的course表示“一道菜”。根据下文可知作者替他们付了钱，因此干扰项C项不正确。‎ ‎25．A　老板告诉作者这对夫妇目前的账单消费“共计”75美元。come to sth.“合计，共计”。B、C、D三项均不符合题意。‎ ‎26．A　作者与那对夫妇素不相识，却主动替他们埋单，老板自然会追问作者“为什么”替他们付钱。‎ ‎27．A　根据本句后半句中的“I tried to cover my feelings”可知作者当时有一点顾虑，不愿向老板透露内心的想法。经过思想斗争之后，最终还是作了解释。因此shy“迟疑的，提防的”符合题意。‎ ‎28．D　通过观察，作者认为这对夫妇经济拮据，为了生活他们不得不“努力”拼搏。作者出于同情，伸出了援助之手。‎ ‎29．A　作者心甘情愿地替他们埋单，“但是”作者不想让这对夫妇知道是谁替他们支付了饭钱。‎ ‎30．C　作者帮助这对夫妇完全是发自肺腑的，不追求任何回报，就算是送给他们的一件“礼物”。B项的意义过于模糊，不能很好地突出作者当时的慷慨及善意，因而不恰当。‎ ‎31．B　这对夫妇前去结账时发现已经有人替他们支付了餐费，自然感到无比惊讶，不相信好运会降临到他们头上。‎ ‎32．D　根据引号中的内容可知，以前这样的事情在他们身上从未发生过，由此可推断此处表示的是否定含义，所以用nothing。‎ ‎33．C　这对夫妇难以相信他们会有如此好运，这样的事情还是第一次，由此可推断他们从未“赢得”过任何东西或被给予过任何东西。故选C项。其余三项既不符合语境，也不符合常识。‎ ‎34．D　此处like是介词，表示“像……一样”，与上文中的“Nothing like this ‎ has ever...”中的“like”照应。像这样的事情在这对夫妇身上从未发生过。A、B、C三项分别表示“除……之外(还)”、“为了”、“尽管”，都不符合语境。‎ ‎35．A　每当作者想起在饭店中替那对夫妇埋单的那件小事，嘴角就露出微笑。因此incident符合语境。‎ ‎【三】‎ I was flying to New York the other day. I knew it was going to be a __16__ day when, on the way to the airport, the taxi driver told me he was lost.‎ I had __17__ my flight over the telephone, so when we arrived, I had to __18__ to the reservations desk to pay for my ticket. The clerk told me my __19__ was not on the passenger list. It took fifteen minutes for her to __20__ that she spelled my name incorrectly. She gave me my ticket and told me I'd better __21__ my luggage quickly or I'd miss my flight. I was the last person to get on the plane.‎ I __22__ flying, especially takeoff, but the plane took off and everything seemed to be OK. Suddenly there was a funny noise and everything started to __23__. I looked out of the window and smoke was coming out of the wing. __24__ I could think of was “The engine is on fire. We're going to __25__. I'm too young to die. ”‎ Immediately, the captain spoke to us in a very calm __26__. “Ladies and gentlemen. This is captain __27__. We are having a small technical __28__ with one of our engines. We will have to return to the airport. Please remain __29__ and keep your seat belts fastened. ”‎ You can __30__ how frightened I was, but the __31__ was excellent. The fight attendants were really calm. They told us to __32__ and said everything would be all right. A few minutes later, we were coming into __33__. The pilot made a perfect landing on the runway. We were __34__.‎ That day, I decided not to fly again. I caught another __35__ to go home. But as I closed the front door, I looked down. Somehow I picked up the wrong suitcase.‎ ‎16.

B　根据The pilot made a perfect landing on the runway可知答案。land“降落”。‎ ‎34．B　根据前文叙述，飞机安全降落，自然我们安全了。‎ ‎35．D　根据第一段的内容可知，作者这里又打了一辆出租车回家。‎ ‎【四】‎ I had arrived at the airport about 30 minutes before the checkin. It had been very __16__ three days for me with lots of meetings. So I was glad to have the __17__ time to make a note of what I __18__ to do the following day. But then came the __19__ that my flight had to be __20__ because there was a problem with the plane.‎ As I sat waiting for my __21__ to be called, I reflected on my last meeting of the day. It was not a business meeting but rather a very enjoyable __22__ with an old business friend I had not seen for over 12 years. Our lunch was spent recalling time gone by __23__ filling each other in on what had happened in our lives over the last 12 years. We both laughed and smiled as we recalled the good times and the great experiences we had __24__ together. At the end of our time together, we both said how much we had __25__ it and that we must do it again.‎ It was great to have this additional time to replay in my __26__ all that we had talked about. I realized how important it was to have regular __27__ of the good times in our life. I was lucky enough to have had the chance to take a short __28__ and reflect on the good things that had happened in my life over the last 12 years.‎ It was somewhat like looking at an old photo album __29__ in a cupboard in your house. There before your eyes are lots of wonderful __30__ that take you back to times and places, and most importantly to those people who are in the __31__.‎ My flight home was finally __32__ three hours later. I smiled as I __33__ the plane and realized that I was not at all __34__ about the delay in the flight, as I had been able to spend the time __35__ on the good times from days gone by.‎ ‎16．A. important B．busy C．convenient D．useful ‎17．A. pleasant B．satisfying C．happy D．extra ‎18．A. had B．failed C．needed D．managed ‎19．A. announcement B．declaration C．opening D．speech ‎20．A. waited B．cancelled C．taken D．delayed ‎21．A. flight B．turn C．name D．order ‎22．A. negotiation B．lunch C．party D．discussion ‎23．A.as well B．except for C．as well as D．in addition ‎24．A. spent B．met C．managed D．shared ‎25．A. got B．enjoyed C．made D．paid ‎26．A. thought B．spirit C．flight D．mind ‎27．A. time B．plans C．reminders D．remainder ‎28．A. way B．cut C．method D．break ‎29．A. stored away B．put on C．set aside D．given out ‎30．A. celebrations B．memories C．awards D．presents ‎31．A. cupboard B．books C．childhood D．photos ‎32．A. shouted B．phoned C．called D．commanded ‎33．A. left B．boarded C．jumped D．reached ‎34．A. upset B．happy C．crazy D．surprised ‎35．A. taking B．seizing C．reflecting D．bringing 答案与解析：‎ 文章通过叙述“我”在等待飞机的时候对往事的回忆，告诉我们要经常停留下来，回顾生活中的美好事情。‎ ‎16．B　由下文“with lots of meetings”可知，答案为B项，这里指很“繁忙的(busy)”三天，而不是important“重要的”，useful“有用的”，convenient“方便的”三天。‎ ‎17．D　依据上文“about 30 minutes before the checkin”可判断，此处指“我”有额外的时间来做别的事，因此答案为D项。‎ ‎18．C　结合上文语境可知，此处指“我”很乐意有额外的时间来计划第二天“需要(needed)”做的事，所以答案为C项。have to do sth.“不得不做某事”；fail to do sth.“未能做某事”；manage to do sth.“设法做成某事”，均不符合语境。‎ ‎19．A　依据语境可知，这里应指机场发布了一项通知，因此答案为A项。‎ ‎20．D　从下文可知，航班是被延误了(delayed)，所以答案为D项。cancel“取消”，不符合文意。‎ ‎21．A　飞机出了故障，“我”当然是等待“航班(flight)”，因此答案为A项。‎ ‎22．B　由下文“Our lunch”可知，答案为B项，lunch“午餐”。negotiation“谈判”；party“聚会”；discussion“讨论”，均不符合文意。‎ ‎23．C　此处用as well as连接recalling和filling两个动名词短语。‎ ‎24．D　spend, meet, manage都不能与先行词times和experiences很好地搭配，因此答案为D，share“分享，共有”。‎ ‎25．B　由“we must do it again”可知，我们很满意那天的聚餐，因此答案为B项。‎ ‎26．D　句意：有这样额外的时间来回想我们的谈话实在是太好了。回想应是在大脑中，因此答案为mind。thought“思想”；spirit“精神”；flight“航班”，均不符合语境。‎ ‎27．C　这里说的是“我”的感受：“我”认识到定期回顾生命中的快乐时光是多么重要啊。reminder“引起回忆的事物”；time“时间”；plan“计划”；remainder“剩余物”，依据句意可知，答案为C项。‎ ‎28．D　由下文“reflect on the good things”可知，这里表示“我”有机会来短暂地放松，因此答案为D项，take a short break“短暂地休息”。‎ ‎29．A　句意：这就有点像是在看贮藏在家里橱柜里的老相册一样。store away“贮藏”；put on“穿上”；set aside“留出”；give out“分发”。依据句意可知，答案为A项。‎ ‎30．B　既然“take you back to times and places”，那么应是“许多精彩的回忆”，因此答案为B项。celebration“庆祝”；award“奖品”；present“礼物”，均不符合语境。‎ ‎31．D　上文已经提到“an old photo album”，因此答案为D项。‎ ‎32．C　由上文“As I sat waiting for my __21__ to be called”可知，此处答案应为C项。‎ ‎33．B　board the plane“登机”，答案为B项。‎ ‎34．A　由“I smiled”可知，此时“我”的心情是很愉快的，所以对飞机的晚点并不“心烦(upset)”，故答案为A项。‎ ‎35．C　由上文“reflected on my last meeting of the day”与“reflect on the good things”可知，答案为C项，reflect on“认真思考”。take on“呈现”；seize on“抓住(可 利用的事物)”；bring on“导致，促使生长”，均不符合语境。‎ ‎【五】‎ Watson entered Mr. Smith's office. The boss was a(n) __16__ man. He fired people who didn't do well without giving them a second chance.‎ ‎“Watson，” said Mr. Smith，“ this past year your department hasn't earned money. We're going to __17__ that department. It's finished. I'm sorry—but you'll have to __18__” “But, sir—if I just had a little more time. For the moment I need the __19__ to keep my __20__ at Riverside School. ”‎ ‎“What's that！” said the boss. “ Riverside! I didn't know you had a boy there. That's a(n) __21__ school for a man with your salary. ”‎ ‎“I know, sir. But he likes it so much! He's a star trackman and the best boxer in the school. The boys call him __22__ there. ”‎ The boss sat perfectly __23__ for a long time—a faraway look in his eyes. Then, suddenly, he said，“We've got to close your department, Watson. But you'll __24__a new job in another department. It means longer hours—maybe more __25__. Now get out. You're here for life. ”‎ Watson got out with __26__ in his face. Then the boss __27__ a letter from the top drawer of his desk. It was Herbie's __28__ letter from Riverside School—written a few days before he died. He had read it over and over again. The letter __29__：‎ I can't say the boys here are any __30__ than the others were. I guess it's the same everywhere __31__ you're a cripple(跛子). But don't worry about me, Dad. They've got a good __32__ department here. And in my class there's one boy who is really __33__. He's a track star and boxing champ and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ. He __34__ them stop throwing my books around. And he knocked a boy down who hit me. He is the best __35__ I ever had. Dad, when I grow up, I want to do something for Champ. Something big—that he won't even know about.‎ Your son，‎ Herbie ‎16. A. impolite B. hospitable C. modest D. hard ‎17. A. drop B. check C. punish D. lose ‎18. A. join B. present C. go D. attend ‎19.

The boys call him Champ.”可知答案。‎ ‎23．A　根据下文的suddenly，he said可知，这里应该是老板静静地坐在那儿很长时间。still“静止的，不动的”。‎ ‎24．A　根据后面“...a new job in another department和You're here for life”可知答案。take over“接管，接手”；go over“复习”；think over“仔细考虑”；come over“过来拜访”。‎ ‎25．C　联系下文可知，史密斯之所以一反常态留用了Watson是因为他儿 子的那封信。儿子在信中提到“Dad，when I grow up，I want to do something for Champ.Something big—that he won't even know about.”这一遗愿，由此史密斯为他安排一个薪水较高的职位。‎ ‎26．D　根据文章第一段信息，史密斯一向严厉，这一次对Watson却网开一面，Watson自然感到惊异。‎ ‎27．C　老板从顶层抽屉里拿出一封信。‎ ‎28．A　根据后面的“... written a few days before he died”推断这是老板的儿子Herbie的最后一封信。‎ ‎29．C　信上“写着”用read或said。‎ ‎30．B　根据下文的“I guess it's the same everywhere...”可知，此处意思是：这里的孩子比其他地方的孩子好不到哪里去。‎ ‎31．B　“根据But don't worry about me”可知Herbie是一个残疾的孩子，此处表示Herbie认为一个跛子在哪儿受到的待遇都一样。‎ ‎32．B　根据后文中“in my class there's one boy...and just tops in chemistry”可知答案。‎ ‎33．C　根据下文的“He's a track star and boxing champ and just tops in chemistry”以及男孩对自己的帮助可知Herbie对这个男孩崇拜之至。‎ ‎34．D　他不让同学们乱扔我的书。make sb. do迫使某人做某事。 force/persuade sb. to do sth.；suggest后面不能直接跟宾语和宾语补足语。‎ ‎35．C　根据信的内容尤其是最后一句话可知，Herbie已经把男孩当成他最好的朋友了。‎ ‎【六】‎ One evening after dinner, Mr. and Mrs. Bond called a family meeting. “We've to make a __16__ decision，” Mr. Bond announced. “You see, your mother has been offered a post as codirector of a TV station in Chicago.__17__，the station is not here. After __18__ long and hard about it, we've __19__ that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”‎ Marc looked __20__， while his sister Rachel breathlessly started asking when ‎ they'd be moving. “It's surprising, but exciting，” she said. Marc simply said，“ I can't leave my __21__.

However, he showed no __23__ of accepting the decision, refusing to __24__ his belongings.‎ On the morning of their move, Marc was nowhere to be __25__. His parents called Tommy Lyons' house, but Mrs. Lyons said she hadn't seen Marc. Mrs. Bond became increasingly __26__ while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so __27__.‎ What they didn't know was that Marc had started to walk up to Tommy's house with a faint idea of __28__ in the Lyons' attic (阁楼) for a few days. However, as he walked along all the __29__ landscape of his neighborhood __30__ him of the things he and his family had done together: the green fence he and his mother had painted; the trees he and his sister used to __31__ while playing hideandseek; the park __32__ he and his father often took walks together. How much would these __33__ without his family, who made them special in the first place? Marc didn't spend __34__ answering that question but instead, he hurried back to his house, __35__ if there were any boxes of the right size to hold his record collection.‎ ‎16．A. different B．quick C．wise D．final ‎17．A.

I'd rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons！”可推知，Marc听到这样的决定感到很震惊。‎ ‎21．B　因为Marc还是一个孩子，所以他不想离开的应该是他的朋友。‎ ‎22．C　grow used to sth./doing sth.意为“慢慢地接受或习惯做什么”。‎ ‎23．B　此处是指他没有显示出接受这个决定的任何迹象。sign“迹象”，符合题意。其余选项都不符合题意。‎ ‎24．A　由上句内容可知，此处表示Marc拒绝整理他的个人物品。pack“收拾(行李)，装(箱)”。collect“收集”；tie“系，拴，捆”；pile“堆放”，均不符合语境。‎ ‎25．C　由下文可知，此处是指到处找都找不到Marc。故答案为C项。‎ ‎26．A　由“while”可知父亲对Marc的行为很生气，但母亲很担心(anxious)。‎ ‎27．C　句意：丈夫对孩子这种不负责任的举动很生气。impatiently“不耐烦地，没有耐心地”；irregularly“不规则地”；irresponsibly“不负责任地”；selflessly“无私地”。故答案为C项。‎ ‎28．A　由于Marc不愿意离开这个地方，所以他想到去Lyons家的阁楼上去躲几天。故答案为A项。‎ ‎29．B　由常识可知，只有那些熟悉的景色才能让他回忆起他和家人在一起做过的事情。故答案为B项。‎ ‎30．D　remind sb. of sth.“使某人想起……”，是固定短语。warn sb. of sth.意为“提醒某人注意某事”，不符合题意。‎ ‎31．C　由“while playing hideandseek”可知，能与捉迷藏相吻合的只有爬树，故答案为C项。‎ ‎32．B　“he and his father often took walks together”作park的定语，从句中缺少状语，故用where。‎ ‎33．C　此处是指没有了家人，这一切还有什么意义。mean意为“对某人重要(或有价值)”。‎ ‎34．A　由下句“hurried back to his house”可知，他没有花时间来回答这个问题。‎ ‎35．B　由语境可知，此处应是指他边往家赶边想到底还有没有合适的箱子来装他收藏的唱片。wonder意为“想知道”。‎ ‎【七】‎ The restaurant was only a quarter full when we got there. A couple in their thirties were seated about three tables away. Their __16__ was a little strange and it caught my attention. I've always been __17__ to the feelings of other people. I got the immediate __18__ that this couple could __19__ afford to eat out. At first I __20__ the thought, but it kept appearing into my head.‎ I begans to feel a strong __21__ to pay for their meals. I wasn't rich, but I could __22__ it. So I followed my intention and __23__ the boss to pay their bill. I was told that they had __24__ their courses and might still order coffees, but so far the bill __25__ $ 75.‎ When he asked __26__ I was paying their bill I felt a little __27__ as I tried to cover my feelings.

He said the young woman broke down in tears and said，“__32__ like this has ever happened to us before. We've never __33__ anything or been given anything. Things __34__ this just don't happen to us.” But it did happen. Now every time I think of the __35__ at the restaurant a smile spreads across my mouth, as I remember how once, I felt a strong desire to give freely to another.‎ ‎16．A. age B．bill C．appearance D．manner ‎17．A. polite B．sensitive C．nervous D．important ‎18．A. order B．hope C．impression D．promise ‎19．A. hardly B．proudly C．luckily D．freely ‎20．A. wrote B．felt C．followed D．ignored ‎21．A. regret B．desire C．success D．danger ‎22．A. change B．face C．afford D．prevent ‎23．A. reminded B．advised C．approached D．helped ‎24．A. refused B．prepared C．paid D．finished ‎25．A. came to B．depended on C．gave up D．turned against ‎26．A. why B．when C．how D．where ‎27．A. shy B．proud C．excited D．foolish ‎28．A. pretend B．continue C．expect D．struggle ‎29．A.

Why are you really home？”‎ Then I noticed his __18__ and realized he was telling the truth. My father has always been a hard worker and __19__ himself on his career.__20__ for our family has been his job, and I guess I had taken his work __21__.‎ My father's unemployment created many changes in our life. For starters, he was home all the time, __22__ meant my bed had to be made, my room __23__， and my homework done right after school. I would come home every day to find him at the computer __24__ jobs. I began to notice how down he seemed, though he tried to be __25__. For the first time, I saw my dad as the vulnerable(易受伤害的). I __26__ my allowance(零用钱), even though it wasn't much; I felt like the right thing to do. I __27__ found a parttime job.‎ After several difficult months of searching, my dad decided to go in a totally different direction. He __28__ that he never wanted to be laid off again, so he was going to start his own business.‎ One evening I asked if he needed help.‎ ‎“__29__ it doesn't interfere (妨碍) with your study，” he said.‎ I __30__ at his office the next afternoon, and most afternoons after that for two months.

Now I know that through __33__ problemsolving, I can always find Plan B to ask for help, and take risks. __34__ I have learned from my dad's understanding of business and his work ethic are two of the most important lessons in my life, and will be my __35__ for success.‎ ‎16．A. casually B．seriously C．shyly D．absolutely ‎17．A. carried off B．paid off C．seen off D．laid off ‎18．A. fairness B．look C．expression D．weakness ‎19．A. regarded B．prided C．considered D．worked ‎20．A.
