一、完形填空(10分)
My daughter was having trouble recently deciding on what to major(主修)in at college, so she asked for my 1 . I told her the thing I wished that I had been told at her age, “Find a 2 that you love and you will never feel tired of working.” I didn’t know how to answer it, though, when she asked me what she should do if she had to take a job that she 3 .
That question brought back a lot of 4 of jobs that I had over the years. I remembered one thing in particular (尤其). My young family was struggling. We had no money, and there were no good jobs to be offered in the area. My brother, 5 , got me a job at a local lumber mill (木材场). The work was hard and meant endless pain for my back. What was worse, the pay was very 6 . In winter, the skin on my fingers bled (流血) from the cold, dry air. In the several years I worked there, many people left. Only those of us who had families to support didn’t leave to 7 something better.
Still, I also remembered singing to myself while working. I remembered how a sandwich tasted like the greatest meal in the world after hours of hard work. I remembered being thankful for this job so I could 8 my family. Remembering all this gave me the answer I needed for my daughter. “Just bring your love to your job then, sweetheart,” I said. “If you can’t do what you love, then 9 what you do.”
In our life, we work to 10 , but we also live to love. Without love, work is drudgery(苦差事). Yet, with love, work is joy.

### 一、完形填空（10分）
我的女儿最近在决定大学主修什么专业时遇到了困难，所以她向我征求**建议**。我告诉她我希望在她这个年纪时有人能告诉我的一句话：“找到一份你热爱的**职业**，你就永远不会对工作感到厌倦。”然而，当她问我如果她不得不从事一份她**讨厌**的工作该怎么办时，我却不知道该如何回答。
这个问题唤起了我多年来工作的许多**回忆**。我尤其记得一件事。那时我的小家庭正处于困境之中。我们没有钱，而且这个地区也没有好的工作机会。不过，我的哥哥帮我在当地的一家木材场找到了一份工作。这份工作很辛苦，我的背部承受着无尽的疼痛。更糟糕的是，工资非常**低**。冬天，我手指的皮肤在寒冷干燥的空气中流血。在我在那里工作的几年里，很多人都离开了。只有我们这些有家庭要养活的人没有离开去**寻找**更好的工作。
不过，我也记得工作时自己唱歌的情景。我记得在数小时的辛苦工作之后，一个三明治尝起来就像世界上最美味的一餐。我记得我很感激这份工作，因为我可以**养活**我的家人。回忆起这一切，我找到了给女儿的答案。“那么，亲爱的，就把你的热爱带到你的工作中吧，”我说，“如果你不能做你热爱的事，那就**热爱**你所做的事。”
在我们的生活中，我们工作是为了**生活**，但我们也为了热爱而生活。没有热爱，工作就是苦差事。然而，有了热爱，工作就是快乐。
