Walking down the street the other day, I happened to notice a small purse. It was lying on the sidewalk. I picked it up and opened it to see if I could find out the o【1】 name. There was nothing inside except some change and an old photo. I took the wallet to the police station and handed it to a policeman.

That evening I went to have dinner with my aunt and uncle. A young woman had also been i【2】 in order that there could be four people at the table. Her face was so f【3】 to me, but I could not remember where I had seen her. In the course of conversation, however, the young woman happened to mention that she had lost a pink wallet with some change and an old photo, and she had the photo taken in her c【4】. All at once I realized where I had seen her. She was the little girl in the photo, t【5】 she was now much older. She was very surprised, of course, when I was able to tell her all about the wallet. Then I explained that I had r【6】 her from the photo I found in the wallet. My uncle insisted on going to the police station immediately for the wallet.

【解析】

文章大意：本文讲述的是作者拾到一个钱包，发现钱包有一张旧照片，上交警察后，吃饭时恰巧遇到失主的故事。

【1】句意：我把它捡起来，打开看看能不能找到主人的名字。

由后句There was nothing inside except some change and an old photo“这只有一些零钱和一张旧照片”可知作者拾起钱包，打开想找到拥有者的名字，根据所给空后面的name可知，需要用名词所有格形式，故答案填owner's。

【2】句意：这有四个人坐在桌边，还邀请了一位年轻女子。

根据所在位置，可知需要填入动词过去分词形式表示被动语态，由所给空后面的four people at the table“桌子边四个人”可知这个年轻女人被邀请，故答案填invited。

【3】句意：她的脸对我来说很熟悉，但是我想不起来在哪里见过她。

根据所在位置，需要填入形容词，由后句but I could not remember where I had seen her“但是我想不起来在哪里见过她”以及固定搭配be familiar to“对……熟悉”，可知，应该是familiar，故答案填familiar。

【4】句意：然而，在谈话过程中，这位年轻女子碰巧提到，她丢失了一个带零钱的粉红色钱包和一张旧照片，这张照片是她童年时拍的。

根据所在位置，需要填入名词，由she had the photo taken“她照照片”以及后句She was the little girl in the photo可知，在她的儿童时期照的，故答案填childhood。

【5】句意：她是照片上的那个小女孩，尽管她现在大了很多。

根据所在位置，需要填入连词，由much older与She was the little girl in the photo可知两者相对比，所以应该用的是尽管，故答案填though。

【6】句意：然后我解释说我从钱包里找到的照片里认出了她。

根据所在位置，需要填入动词，由前文说我在哪里见过她，可知这里是认出，时态是一般过去时，故答案填recognized。

【7】句意：当警察把钱包交出来时，他说我不仅找到了钱包，而且还找到了丢失钱包的人，这真是一个惊人的巧合。

根据所在位置，需要填入形容词修饰名词，作定语，由后面的词coincidence(惊人的巧合)可知，应该是令人惊讶的，故答案填amazing。
