Question

I keep a two dollar bill in my wallet that was given to me by my mother when I was six years old.

The  31  goes with me wherever I go. My mother gave it to me so that  32  would follow me. She looked at me and said, “I want you to carry this two dollar bill for extra good luck.”

“Thanks, mom,” I replied, “I will keep it  33  to me always.”

My mother passed away when I was seven years old. I remember I took out my two dollar bill and held it in my hand for the longest time, knowing that she would  34  me the rest of my life.

Each time I felt I had a crisis, I would  35  for my two dollar bill and set it on the table. I would  36  at it for several hours and could always  37  a solution. When I applied for my first job, I was thirty years old and very shy. The thought of being interviewed for a job was  38  but I had to work. I saw one of the interviewers well dressed with  39  purse and shoes. I also knew the chance of being chosen was  40  when looking at the length of others’ resumes.

“What makes you feel you are  41  for this job?” The well－dressed woman asked. “I really need this job and there is nothing I can not do” I responded. She then asked me a series of questions and the interview was over. As I left, I  42  and said “Please give me a chance. I learn quickly and can be a very  43  member of your team.”

I went home,  44 . That evening I received a phone call. “Gina” she said, “we decided to give you a chance to  45  yourself.” “Thank you, you will not regret this decision.” I  46  the phone and yelled. At that instant, I remember my mom once said to us “You are  47  in my mind. Don’t  48  failure. It is a way to get us to try harder.”

How  49  this gift from Mom! It had built up  50  in me.

考點(diǎn)：考查故事類(lèi)短文

點(diǎn)評(píng)：做完型填空的時(shí)候：關(guān)注文章首句，領(lǐng)會(huì)大意。通過(guò)理解文章的首句，我們可以明確短文話題，了解篇章結(jié)構(gòu)，預(yù)測(cè)全文內(nèi)容。通過(guò)理解段落的首句，也可明確每段的大意，根據(jù)前后語(yǔ)境，上下聯(lián)系。有時(shí)只需從空格所在句子的上文或下文考慮；有時(shí)需要從空格所在句子的前后2-3句考慮；還有的可能要從整個(gè)段落或整篇文章給予考慮，才可選出正確選項(xiàng)。上下文提供的信息對(duì)應(yīng)關(guān)系以及詞語(yǔ)的重復(fù)使用，對(duì)解答完形填空也非常有用。對(duì)于文中生詞的處理，有的可以通過(guò)句法分析判斷詞性，根據(jù)上下文猜測(cè)其大意；對(duì)不影響文章理解和解題的生詞可以跳過(guò)不管。根據(jù)詞語(yǔ)辨析，挑選答案。理解句子含義，判斷句義關(guān)系，從詞匯的意義、用法和搭配考慮，把握整體意思，尋找答題線索。
