三、完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分, 计15分)
Not long ago, my daughter’s favourite leather shoes were cut by a knife.She cried.I took the shoes to a shoemaker to get them repaired.
The young apprentice(学徒) took a look at the cuts quickly and said, “There is 36 I can do but change the uppers(鞋帮).”
His master looked at 37 and said to me, “If you trust me, I will add more cuts to both of the shoes on purpose for special style.”
I didn’t fully understand him, 38 I decided to leave the shoes.
Two days later, I went there to get the shoes.At the first sight I found there were indeed five or six 39 on each shoe, but all of them were covered by soft red leather sewed(缝)with thick thread(线).The shoes looked more special and interesting than ever.I 40 stop praising(称赞)the master for his skill.
Another time, my wife’s 41 had an opening on the back.My wife checked it carefully, and then said, “I’ll 42 it myself.””
Three days went past, and I was very 43 to see it again: the 44 was sewed up by thin and white thread and it looked like the ice crystal(晶体).She 45 made a lovely snowman and a wooden house on the blouse.I said with praise, “It’s just as beautiful as a piece of 46.”
“I learned from the master.Patches(补丁)can be 47 to look perfect.” replied my wife.
Her words taught me even more: perfection is 48 to achieve in everything; patches are unavoidable (不可避免的), so is human’s life, which will appear in the form of wound, disability or disease.49 you can’t change that, all you can do and have to do is to cover the wound by patches and try your best to make a most beautiful flower on the wound, and that is 50 life teaches us.Once you understand it, you can enjoy your life better.

One day, when I finished raising money for a charity and was on the train back home, I put down my phone and started writing thank-you notes to people who helped.
When I got off the train, I felt amazingly good.The next day, I wrote more thank-yous and the same feeling of happiness hit me again.I suddenly had the idea: Why not keep on doing this for every day of the year?
To keep on task, I decided to pick out a different theme for each month.January was charity.February would be neighbours.And many names came to my mind right away.
While writing the notes, I realized I spent too much time on the phone moving from app to app, enjoying other people’s lives.Writing thank-you notes allowed me the time to do something different, paying more attention to my own life.
In the following months, I wrote to my friends, doctors and teachers.In July, my “food” month, I wrote to Julie, who used to cook at my favorite restaurant.It went like this:
Dear Julie,
I find myself missing you lately.Thank you for hosting and cooking beautiful food.Jake and I will never forget the cake you made for our wedding.We talk about it every year.
Thank you.We miss you.
Love,
Gina
I was happy to receive a note back from her.Julie replied, “I don’t think I’ve ever received such a touching letter before.I’m going through a hard time right now, and this helps.”
On December 31, I wrote my last card—to Jake, my husband, and our two kids.And I took a picture of us, so I could remember the feeling coming up inside me.Gratitude.
58.The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 means _______________.
A.writing thank-you notes B.taking the train back home
C.putting the phone away D.raising money for charities
59.How did Julie most probably feel after reading the note from Gina?
A.Shy and surprised. B.Pleased and relaxed.
C.Nervous and excited. D.Moved and encouraged.
60.The theme of the December notes might be “______________________”.
A.charity B.neighbour C.family D.food
61.What did Gina get by doing her task according to the passage?
