A few weeks after my first wife, Georgia, was called to heaven, I was cooking dinner for my son and myself. For a 11 , I had decided on frozen peas. As I was cutting open the bag, it 12 from my hand and crashed to the floor. The peas, like marbles(弹珠), 13 everywhere. I tried to use a broom(扫帚), 14 with each sweep, they just rolled across the kitchen. For the next week, every time I was in the 15 , I found a pea——in a corner, or behind a table leg. They kept 16 . Eight months later I pulled out the refrigerator to clean behind it, and 17__ 12 frozen peas hidden underneath． At the time I found those few remaining 18 , I was in a new relationship with a wonderful __19 I’d met in a support group. After we married, I was reminded 20 those peas under the refrigerator, and realized that my 21 had been like that bag of frozen peas. It had scattered(分散). My wife had died; I was in a new city with a busy job, and with a son having trouble 22 his new surroundings and the 23 of his mother. I was a bag of spilled frozen peas; my life had come apart and scattered. When life gets you 24 , when everything you know comes apart, and when you think you’ll never 25 , remember that it’s just a bag of scattered frozen peas. The peas can be 26 , and life will move on. You’ll find all the peas 27 , including the ones that are hardest to find. And when you’ve got them 28 you’ll start to feel whole again. The life you know can break apart at any time. But you’ll have to 29 , and how fast you collect your peas depends on you. Will you keep scattering them around with a broom, 30 will you pick them up one by one and put your life back together? 小题1: A．drink B．fruit C．vegetable D．meat 小题2: A．moved B．walked C．ran D．slipped 小题3: A．rubbed B．rolled C．grew D．existed 小题4: A．but B．and C．although D．so 小题5: A．bedroom B．living room C．kitchen D．storeroom 小题6: A．getting up B．turning up C．taking up D．using up 小题7: A．found B．ate C．left D．planted 小题8: A．presents B．cans C．vegetables D．peas 小题9: A．man B．child C．woman D．boy 小题10: A．of B．for C．with D．in 小题11: A．wife B．life C．son D．friend 小题12: A．turning to B．leading to C．adjusting to D．adding to 小题13: A．thank B．love C．help D．loss 小题14: A．down B．near C．close D．wide 小题15: A．get it B．make it C．take it D．leave it 小题16: A．grew B．bought C．collected D．frozen 小题17: A．eventually B．fortunately C．properly D．specially 小题18: A．both B．all C．either D．each 小题19: A．call on B．put on C．bring on D．move on 小题20: A．while B．because C．since D．or
