专题11 完形填空（练）

（1）

It was an ordinary summer afternoon when I first found out about my grandpa’s     1     garden.

That day, after school, instead of walking straight home, I decided to visit my grandpa, who lived just a few blocks away.

When I got there, I saw the front door was slightly open. I pushed it open but found nobody. Curiosity and     2     mixed within me as I ventured inside and noticed the backdoor wide open, leading to a path I’d never     3     before. There it was—a breathtaking garden, filled with flowers of all shapes and colors, greenery stretching out as far as my eyes could see. I walked     4    , marveling at the beautiful spectacle. Suddenly, I heard a rustling sound from a nearby bush, followed by a soft and familiar voice.

“I didn’t     5     you to find this place, my dear,” my grandpa said, emerging from behind the green leaves with a broad smile, holding a watering can.

    6     by the beauty of the garden, I just stood there, taking in the view. After what felt like forever, I asked, “Grandpa, why didn’t you tell me about this place?”

He shrugged and replied, “I wanted it to be a     7    , something you could discover on your own. It’s more special that way, don’t you think?”

Since that day, we would spend hours in the garden, tending to the flowers, sharing stories, and enjoying each other’s     8    . That garden, which I discovered     9    , became our playground, a haven of peace in the midst of our bustling city lives.

Looking back now, I realize that the greatest thing I found in that garden was not the beautiful scenery, but the precious memories and      10      I built with my grandpa.

Maria’s Plans

Maria stared thoughtfully at the tree fort. It was the first thing her grandpa had built for her. She had been little — it was before her younger brothers had been born.

Of all her brothers, Maria felt that she was most like her grandpa. Grandpa had been a carpenter. Maria had always loved visiting him in his workshop. Only she had been allowed because she was the oldest. He could do anything with his own two hands, she thought    11    .

Recently, Maria had decided that she was going to build a tree swing. Now she was standing    12    the tree, with her rope, seat, and tools, thinking about the best way to    13    the swing. She could throw the ropes    14    the branch. But then how would she tie the knot? She would probably need to    15    a ladder.

“Hey, what’re you doing?” called a voice from a little distance away. Maria turned and saw her little brother Ricardo ran up to her. “None of your business,” she replied. Then, thinking better of it, she said, “    16     a swing.”

“Really? Can I help?” Ricardo asked. Maria thought it over — it would be nice to have some help. But she was the builder in the family now, so she would have to solve her own problems. “No,” Maria said. “I don’t need any help.”

Suddenly, her other brother, Emil, came running towards them. “Hey, what’re you guys doing?”

“We’re building a swing,” Ricardo said.

“No, we’re not,” Maria said. “I am!”

“Can I help?” Emil asked. “No!” Maria was turning red. “This is my project. Not yours. You    17    even knew Grandpa.” She ran into the house, leaving Ricardo, Emil, and her materials beneath the tree.

“What’s wrong, Maria?” Grandma asked.

“Ricardo and Emil are bothering me,” Maria explained the situation.

“They’re just trying to help. And how are you going to do it all by yourself?”

“Grandpa didn’t need anyone’s help,” Maria said.

“Who do you think helped him cut the boards for your tree fort?”

Grandma asked. Maria was    18    . “But I don’t remember...”

“Maria, Grandpa was a great carpenter, but even great carpenters need help sometimes.    19     he needed a second pair of hands, he’d ask me to help.” Grandma glanced out the window. “And it looked like you need help, too.”

Maria hurried outside. Ricardo and Emil were carrying the ladder in the yard, waving at Maria. Smiling, she began to wonder if she might not be the only one to    20    Grandpa.

11．A．slowly B．proudly C．clearly D．anxiously

12．A．in B．on C．around D．under

13．A．use B．hang C．provide D．hold

14．A．over B．by C．into D．down

15．A．take B．fetch C．buy D．create

Happiness always lies in giving help to others. And Steven Smith has just set us a good example.

Donald Austin is a teacher. He had a    21    accident several months ago. And he had to spend three months in hospital. He also had part of his left     22    cut off.

Now he was able to go back home. Donald thought he could go up the steps to the front door of his home using walking sticks. But he wasn’t as    23    as he had hoped. And the wheelchair was too    24    . His wife, Jennifer Austin, couldn’t lift it up the steps, even
