This was my grandmother’s first Christmas without grandfather. When we reached her house, it did seem a little 36without grandfather.
Grandfather had always said the Christmas 37was the most important. So we set to work assembling(组装)the beautiful 38tree that was stored in grandfather’s closet(储藏室). After we finished, we stepped back to 39our work. It looked wonderful. But something was 40 .
“Where’s the star?” I asked. It was my grandmother’s 41. As we emptied box after box and found no star, my grandmother’s eyes 42with tears. Grandfather had given it to Grandmother fifty years ago. Now, on her first Christmas without 43, the star was gone, too.
“Let’s 44in the closet where the tree was,” my sister Donna said. We 45under beds and over shelves, inside and outside 46we had exhausted every possibility. We could see Grandmother was 47, although she tried not to show it. By now, it was 48outside, and time for bed, as Santa would soon be here.
The next morning, my sisters and I 49early to see what Santa had left under the tree. After breakfast, the family sat together to 50presents. “The last gift is to Grandmother from Grandfather.” Father said, in a puzzled voice.
“From who?” There was 51in my grandmother’s voice.
“I found that 52in the closet when we got the tree down,” Mother explained.
My grandmother opened it. Her face lit up when she pulled out a(n) 53 golden star. There was a note attached. Her voice trembled(颤抖)as she read it:
Don’t be 54 with me, dear. I broke your star while putting away the tree. Thought it was time for a new one, I hope it brings you as much 55 as the first one. Merry Christmas.

点评:做完型填空的时候:关注文章首句,领会大意。通过理解文章的首句,我们可以明确短文话题,了解篇章结构,预测全文内容。通过理解段落的首句,也可明确每段的大意,根据前后语境,上下联系。有时只需从空格所在句子的上文或下文考虑;有时需要从空格所在句子的前后2-3句考虑;还有的可能要从整个段落或整篇文章给予考虑,才可选出正确选项。上下文提供的信息对应关系以及词语的重复使用,对解答完形填空也非常有用。对于文中生词的处理,有的可以通过句法分析判断词性,根据上下文猜测其大意;对不影响文章理解和解题的生词可以跳过不管。根据词语辨析,挑选答案。理解句子含义,判断句义关系,从词汇的意义、用法和搭配考虑,把握整体意思,寻找答题线索。
