Question

Once, a circle lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around, looking for its       piece. But because it was not complete, it could only roll ( 滚 ) very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers and the sunshine along the way. It talked with worms. It found lots of different pieces, but       of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on       for the lost piece. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit       . The circle put the piece into          . It could be whole with nothing lost. It was so happy and began to roll. As it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to worms. It realized how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad           it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled very slowly.

Sometimes we are perfect when we lose something. A man who       everything is poor in some ways. He will never have hopes, dreams or something better. He will never know someone loves him or someone is giving him something he was always wanted or never had.

We couldn’t be perfect. But we must be brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive, kind enough to share           with others and clever enough to know there is enough love around us and then we can always  have a wonderful time in our life.

【解析】

试题分析：这篇短文讲述的是圆圈想保持完整，便四处寻找失去的那一块。然后有一天这个圆圈找到了完美适合它的那块，圆圈把那部分放到它自己里面。可是却感觉还不如先前残缺的状态呢，于是它放弃了找到的那块，恢复了原先的样子。这篇短文告诉我们残缺也可以完美。

1.动名词及语境的理解。句意：圆圈想保持完整，所以四处寻找失去的那一块。its missing piece不见了的那块，missing动名词作定语修饰piece。故选C。

2.代词及语境的理解。句意：它找到了许多不同的部分。它们当中没有一个适合。A. none（三个/三个以上当中）没有一个，B. all（三个/三个以上当中）所有的， C. each（二个/二个以上当中）每一个。据下文So it left them all by the side of the road所以它把他们都留在路边，及其中的all关键词，故选A。

3.所以它把它们丢在路边，继续寻找丢失的那块。keep on doing继续做某事，是固定短语，故选B。

4.然后有一天这个圆圈找到了完美适合它的那块。修饰动词fit 用副词。故选A。

5.那个圆圈把那部分放到它自己里面。据上下文。故选B。

6.固定句式及语境的理解。句意：它感觉如此悲哀，以致它停了下来，把找到的那块放在路边，慢慢地滚动。so...that... 如此……以致……，是固定句式。故选C。

7.动词及语境的理解。句意：一个拥有一切的人在某些方面是贫穷的。主语who 代指A man在定语从句中作主语，是第三人称单数故谓语动词也要用第三人称单数故选B。

8.名词及语境的理解。句意：但是我们必须有足够勇敢去爱，足够强大去原谅，足够友善去和别人分享幸福。据句意故选C。
