二、完形填空。(共 15 小题；每小题 1 分,计 15 分)(2024·江苏扬州江都区期末)
When I was a little girl, I found love in a box all because of a class task. On a Friday evening I made an announcement at the 1 table. “My teacher said we have to bring a box for our Valentines on Monday. 2 it has to be a special box, all decorated.”
Mother said, “We'll see” and she went on eating. I wilted(枯萎) 3 than a flower with no water. What did “We'll see” mean? I had to have that box, or there would be 4 Valentines for me. Maybe they didn't love me enough to 5 me with my project.
The whole Saturday I waited and I worried, but nobody talked about a valentine box. 6 arrived. I kept an anxious eye on both my parents all day. Late Sunday afternoon, my 7 called me into our kitchen. The table was covered with 8 paper and cloth. An empty shoebox rested on top of the paper. Daddy said, “Let's get started on 9 project.”
In the next hour my father changed the empty shoebox into a valentine box I would 10 forget. Colourful paper covered the ugly cardboard. He sang happily while he 11, and I sat on my chair watching and 12 him the glue(胶水) when he needed it. When he finished, my father's eyes sparkled, and a smile stretched across his thin face. “What do you think of that?”
My answer was a hug and “ 13, Daddy.” But inside, joy danced all the way to my heart. It was the 14 time that my father devoted so much time to me. His world is full of working hard to support his family and 15 every sports event broadcast on the radio. Suddenly, a new door opened in my life. My father loved me.
