One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something surprising about how he grew it．The farmer________seed corn to his neighbors．

“How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?”the reporter asked．“You know they are taking part in the________with you each year．”

“Why，sir，”said the farmer，“didnk you know?The wind picks up pollen(花粉)from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field．If my neighbors grow_______corn，cross-pollination(异花传粉)will affect the quality of my corn．So if I want to grow good corn，I must________my neighbors to grow good com．”

The farmer knows much about the connection of life．His corn cannot improve________his neighbor’s corn improves．

As a great man says，“We make a living by what we________，but we make a life by what we give．”We can’t live without food，clothes，and many other things．However，a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get，but by how much we can give others．Giving，instead of taking，makes us different from other animals．So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find________in their life．

【解析】

【1】作者在下文通过举例说明了如何才能成功地做好每件事，故how符合题意。

【2】由下文内容可知，和设空后的corn搭配的词是grow，此时grow表示“种植”。

【3】结合设空后的won the first prize可知，他的玉米总是被选为“最好的”，故答案为C。

【4】结合下文的描述可知，那位农民总是把种子主动给他的邻居，故offered符合题意。

【5】结合上下文的描述可知，邻居们每年都会和那位农民一起参加“比赛”，故competition符合题意。

【6】结合上下文可知，如果农民的邻居种植的玉米“不好”，那么异花传粉会影响农民的玉米的质量。故bad符合题意。

【7】结合上下文可知，如果农民想种植出好的玉米，他必须“帮助”他的邻居们也种植好的玉米。故help符合题意。

【8】本题考查连词的用法。句意为“如果他的邻居的玉米得不到改良，他的玉米也不会有所提高”，故unless符合题意。

【9】这句话的意思是：我们通过索取谋生，我们通过给予生活。由此可推断，应填的词是get。

【10】由空前的happy可推断，与之呼应的词是happiness。句意为“选择快乐的人必须帮助别人找到生活中的快乐”。
