Dad lost his job after arguing with the boss, and when Christmas came that year, we had no money ________. On Christmas Eve, Dad took me out into the park. I had a blanket wrapped around me, so I ________to share it with Dad, but he said no thanks. We________ at the sky. Those shining stars were one of the________treats for people like us who lived out in the wildness. Rich city people, he’d say, live in ________flats, but their air was so polluted that they ________ not even see the stars.

“________ your favorite star.” Dad said that night. He told me I could have it for keeping. He said it was my Christmas ________. “You can’t give me a star,” I said, “________owns the stars.”

“That’s right,” Dad said, “But you can suppose it is yours. And when you do that, it is yours.”

I________ my head, looked at the stars, and tried to figure out which was the best one. Then, I found one.

“I want that one.” I said.

Dad smiled. “That’s Venus（金星）,” he said, “Venus was only a planet. She looked bigger and brighter because she was much________ than the stars. Poor old Venus didn’t even make her________ light. She shone only from reflected（反射）light.”

“I like it anyway,” I said, “I had loved Venus even ________that Christmas. You could see it in the early evening, and if you got up early, you could still see it in the morning, after all the stars had disappeared.”

Dad said, “Ok, it’s Christmas. I________ your decision. You can have it if you want.” And he gave me Venus.
