I received a letter from a grandmother who told me about her four-year-old granddaughter Skylar. Ever since Skylar 31 of Disneyland from TV, she 32 her nickels and dimes (零钱) in a piggy bank in 33  of visiting there someday. Her parents 34 her with a trip when she was four, however, and didn't even 35 her to use her own money! When Skylar returned. It was 36. She decided to buy presents with her 37. But she also learned from announcements on TV about a local 38 shelter called 'The Road House'. She 39 asked her mother what 'homeless' meant and why those children 40 coats and warm clothes. She couldn't seem to get the homeless off her mind. Her mother took her to the store to buy 41. Instead of buying for herself or her family, however, she 42 to purchase a warm coat, socks and gloves for a little girl in the 43 .She also wanted to buy a doll, but when she 44 she didn't have enough money, she left the doll 45 . When Skylar got home, she chose one of her 46 dolls and put it into the box with the other items she bought that day. She could hardly wait for Christmas! Skylar was thinking about going to the shelter and giving her carefully 47 gifts to a homeless child. She was much filled with joy at 48 helping someone else. 'Perhaps it's good to have a beautiful mind, 49 an even greater gift is to have a beautiful heart,' says Nobel Laureate John Hash. Young Skylar has a beautiful heart. It is one 50 , above all else, which makes beautiful people. 小题1: A．learned B．cared C．thought D．reminded 小题2: A．saved B．gathered C．took D．spent 小题3: A．honor B．favor C．hopes D．search 小题4: A．disappointed B．annoyed C．helped D．surprised 小题5: A．order B．require C．persuade D．force 小题6: A．Christmastime B．payday C．birthday D．school time 小题7: A．expenses B．earnings C．savings D．debts 小题8: A．poor B．homeless C．big D．famous 小题9: A．generally B．curiously C．strangely D．seriously 小题10: A．used B．took C．needed D．liked 小题11: A．presents B．dolls C．socks D．gloves 小题12: A．refused B．decided C．hesitated D．wished 小题13: A．shelter B．nursery C．house D．hospital 小题14: A．predicted B．promised C．explained D．discovered 小题15: A．out B．behind C．aside D．alone 小题16: A．expensive B．cheap C．favorite D．useless 小题17: A．collected B．bought C．selected D．demanded 小题18: A．deeply B．quickly C．truly D．exactly 小题19: A．but B．and C．if D．or 小题20: A．quality B．expensive C．sense D．expression
