第二节 完形填空。(共20小题;每小题1分,满分20分)
Once,
when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for
the circus. Finally, there was only one family between us and the ticket
counter.
This
family made a big
36 on me. There were eight children.
You could
37 they didn't have a lot of money. Their clothes
were not expensive, but they were clean. The children were
38 , all of them standing in line, two-by-two behind
their parents, holding hands. They were
39 jabbering
(
吱吱喳喳地讨论)about the clowns, elephants and
other acts they would see that
40 .
One
could sense they had never been to the circus before. It
41 to be a highlight
(最精彩的部分)
of their young lives. The
father and mother were at the
42 of the pack
(一群)
, standing proud as could be.
The
ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He
43 responded, "Please
44 me buy eight children's tickets and two adult
tickets so I can take my
45 to
the circus. " The lady quoted the price. The father leaned a little
46 and
asked, "How much did you say?" The lady again quoted the price. The
man didn't have enough money.
How
was he
47 to turn and tell his eight kids
that he didn't have enough money to take them to the circus? Seeing what was
going on, my dad put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and
48 it on the ground.
(
We were not wealthy in any
sense of the word!
)
My
father reached down,
49 the bill, tapped the man on the
shoulder and said, "Excuse me, sir, this fell
50 your pocket. "
The
man knew what was going on. He wasn't begging for a handout
(施舍)
but certainly
51 the help in a desperate, heartbreaking,
embarrassing
52 . He looked straight into my
dad's eyes, took my dad's hand in both of his, squeezed
53
onto the $20 bill, and with his
lip quivering
(颤抖)
and a tear running down his
cheek, he replied, "Thank you, thank you, sir. This really means
54 to
me and my family. "
My
father and I went back to our car and drove home. We didn't go to the circus
that night,
55 we didn't go without.
