Question

【题目】When I was a junior high school student in 1980, life gave me a gift — it was happiness.

One weekend, I went to visit my grandparents in the countryside. On my way home a car ran over me and cut off my arms because of its high speed.

Several days later when I woke up at the hospital, I realized I had to spend the rest of my life 【1】________(without)arms. How sad I felt at that time! Even I was full of fears. But 【2】________ (slow) I knew I had to face the fact and get over it. I 【3】________ (can) get my arms back even though I cried every day.

However, it’s【4】_______ (easy) said than done. It took me nearly half a year to get out of the 【5】 ________ (sad) completely. I got so much from my past story. From then on, I could treat my life with【6】 ________ normal mind. But in our daily life, I often see my classmates get【7】________ (worry) about little things: they get a bad grade on the test; their bus comes late; they don’t have a mobile phone but others have, and so on. But I only enjoy my life. I was lucky to realize from an accident: it’s a waste of our life to focus on what you have lost. We should always think of 【8】 ________ we have. So why are so many people unhappy? Someone may say, “My whole life would improve if I had a new car. But when you get the car, what happens? 【9】 ________ a whole week you are walking on air. Then you go right back to being unhappy.

Happiness 【10】_______ (depend) on what we have! It’s in our heart. It’s a state of mind: even though you own the whole world, you may still feel unhappy. Happiness comes from mastering the art of appreciating (感激) and taking pleasure in what you really have.

【解析】

试题分析：短文大意：作者在1980年时，因一次车祸失去了胳膊。但他并没有因此而颓废，慢慢地从悲伤的阴影中走出，勇敢面对现实，最终活得很幸福。

【1】句意：几天后，当我醒来的时候在医院，我才意识到我不得不无臂度过我的余生。此处填写介词without ，无，没有。

【2】句意：但慢慢地我知道了我必须面对现实，克服它。所填词在句中作状语，所以填写副词形式slowly，慢慢地。

【3】句意：虽然我每天都在哭，但我不能挽回我的胳膊。根据even though I cried every day 可知该用一般过去时态，结合句意，所以填写couldn’t。

【4】句意：然而，说的比做的容易。根据than可知该用形容词的比较级形式，所以填写easier。

【5】句意：我花了将近一年半才完全走出悲伤的阴影。所填词跟在定冠词后用作介词宾语，所以填写名词sadness，悲伤。

【6】句意：从那以后，我可以以一颗平常的心对待我的生活。mind是一个单数名词，所以填写不定冠词a。

【7】句意：但在我们的日常生活中，我经常看到我的同学会因为一些小事情而担忧。get worried about 为……而担忧，所以填写形容词形式worried，担忧的。

【8】句意：我们总应该考虑考虑我们有什么。根据句意可知该填写what。

【9】句意：你在空中走了整整一个星期。a whole week 表示一段时间，在句中作状语，所以填写介词For。

【10】句意：幸福依赖于我们有什么！不可数名词Happiness作主语，谓语动词该用第三人称单数形式，所以填写 depends。
