三、完形填空(共15分，每小题1分)
Joe, a 75-year-old man, lived very happily in a village and had a beautiful 36. His children
grew up and moved to different cities. Joe had four grandchildren, and they often 37 him during
their holidays.
Once before the holiday, Joe prepared his home for the kids: cleaning and buying their favourite
food. After he finished working, he realized he lost his favourite 38. It was a gift from his wife
39 their first child was born. Joe treasured the watch very much, especially after his wife's
death. He was very 40 about losing it.
When his grandchildren came, they promised him they would 41 the watch. One granddaughter
asked, "Grandpa, do you remember when you 42 saw the watch before it went missing?" "I guess
when I was cleaning the barn (谷仓)!" Joe replied. The children looked for the watch for more than two
hours with Joe, but they could not find 43. The kids were now also sad, but they tried to comfort
their grandfather.
One grandson went back to the 44 again. Joe asked why he was going there a second time,
but the little boy just asked 45 not to follow him and to remain silent. He was there for about 15
minutes and then 46 to his grandfather. He found the watch and excitedly gave it to Joe.
Joe was 47 and asked how he was able to find it. The little boy replied, "I sat there 48
making a noise, and the barn was so quiet. After a few minutes, I 49 the 'tick, tick' sound and
found the watch." Joe hugged and thanked the little boy.
This is the power of 50. If we stay calm, we are more able to find the method! It is
nature's first language. In order to hear the language, we must learn to be still and wait.
