I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old．My mother told us that we would not be 26 Christmas gifts because there was not enough money．I felt sad and thought, What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d 27 ? Just when I started to 28 that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women 29 at our house with gifts for all of us．For me they brought a doll．I felt such a sense of 30 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school．I wasn’t 31 ．Somebody had thought 32 of me to bring me a gift．
Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my 33 Christmas there special and memorable, I 34 remembered the women’s visit．I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 35 for as many children as I could possibly reach．
So I 36 a plan and gathered forty people from my pany to help．We gathered about 125 orphans （孤儿） at the Christmas party．For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school supplies, 37 with a child’s name．We wanted all of them to know they were 38．Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I 39 them that they couldn’t open their presents 40 every child had e forward．Finally the 41 they had been waiting for came as I called out, One, two, three．Open your presents! As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 42 up the room．The 43 in the room was obvious, and 44 wasn’t just about toys．It was a feeling — the feeling I knew 45 that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit．I wasn’t forgotten．Somebody thought of me．I matter．

网友回答
(答案→)B
解析：
【小题1】B 由上文可知，还是小孩子的我，在圣诞节来临，我应该是收到礼物，所以选择receiving。
【小题1】C 联系上下文，此处表达的意思是别人问我收到了什么礼物，所以选择got。
【小题1】D 联系上下文，推断此处表达的意思是：我开始接受没有礼物的现实，选择accept，其他三个选项意思都不符合。
【小题1】C 四个选项：break in闯入；settle down安居；turn up出现；show off炫耀。联系上下文此处是出现在我家，给我们圣诞礼物，故选择C，意思最贴切。
【小题1】A 根据下文：I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school（当我回到学校时，我不会再感到难堪了。）结合四个选项的意思，可以推断出此处是表示我解脱了，送了一口气，故选择A。
【小题1】C 分析四个选项，结合上下文，可以得知，这件礼物对我是多么重要，所以此处表达我将不会忘记这件事情，故选择C。
【小题1】D 联系上下文，首先排除B、C，think highly of sb的意思是“对……评价很高”。此处根据作者的前面的心态，选择enough，表示有人关心自己。
【小题1】B 联系上下文，提到是new house，肯定选择first，西方人对于圣诞节很重视，是一家人团圆的日子，所以此时表达重要性，作者想让自己在新家过的第一个圣诞节有意义。选择B。
【小题1】B 根据四个选项的意思，联系上下文，可了解当时作者那种激动的心情，所以应该是很快就想到了那件让她难忘的事情；故选择B。
【小题1】C 根据第一段中描述那次圣诞节礼物给我的感慨，和作者此刻的心情，她认为送圣诞节礼物的给自己以及给得到的孩子们的重要性。
【小题1】C 从上一段的可以推断，是我提出了（came up with）了一个让四十个人来我公司帮忙的计划。
【小题1】D 根据作者的想法，应该是每个人都有自己的圣诞节礼物，所以选择每个人（each）。
【小题1】B 每个人都有属于自己的礼物，而且不是固定的，所以作者的意思是给孩子们启示：每个人都是独一无二的。
【小题1】A 从下文的“One, two, three. Open your presents!”可知，此时在分发礼物时，我提醒每个人开始不要打开礼物。
【小题1】B 同34题，此时选择until，直到每个人都拿到礼物。
【小题1】C 根据下文的意思，此处表达大家等待的拆礼物的时刻到来了，故选择moment。
【小题1】A 分析四个选项的意思，根据文章的上下文：他们灿烂的笑容照亮了整个房间，所以选择light的过去式lit。
【小题1】D 联系上下文，分析四个选项的意思，此处是表达欢乐，故选择D。
【小题1】A 联系上下文，得知：欢乐不仅仅是因为玩具。所以选择it，指代欢乐。
【小题1】D 联系上下文，此处表示：我从很久以前的那次圣诞节上获得的感觉再次感受到了。故选择from。
