第二节 完型填空(共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分)

　　 As a saying goes, every bean has its black. It is impossible to make no mistakes all one’s life. My grandpa Nybakken, a carpenter, is no 　36　 . Several decades ago he made a mistake – a(n) perfect mistake, 　37　 .

On a cold Saturday, Mother’s father was building some wooden cases for the clothes his 38　 was sending to an orphanage (孤儿院) in China. On his way home, he　 39　 into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. He remembered putting them there that morning, so he drove back to the church. His 　40　 　proved fruitless.

When he 41 replayed his earlier actions, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the cases, which he had nailed shut. His brand new glasses, having　 42　 him ￡20 that very morning, were heading for China! He had to drive home　 43　 .

Several months later, the director of the orphanage came to give a report on Sunday night at my grandfather’s church, 　44　 Grandpa and his family also attended.

“But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the　 45　 you sent last year. You see, the bandits(土匪) had just 　46 through the orphanage, destroying everything, including my glasses. I was desperate.”

“　 47　 I had the money, there was simply no way of　 48　 those glasses.　 49　 headaches every day. Then your cases arrived. When my staff　 50　 the covers, they found a pair of glasses lying on top.”

Then, still gripped (吸引注意) with the　 51　 of it all, he continued: “When I tried　 52　 the glasses, it was as though they had been made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that!”

The people listened, 　　53　 for the miraculous glasses. But the director surely must have　 54　 their church with another, they thought. There were no glasses on their　 55 of items to be sent overseas.

But sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his face, an ordinary carpenter realized the Master Carpenter had used him in an extraordinary way.
