Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then how? Here is an example.
There was a farmer who 36 corn(玉米)all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market. Then each time his corn was chosen as the 37 and won the first prize.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something surprising about how he grew it. The farmer 38 his seed(做种子的) corn to his neighbors.
"How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?" the reporter asked. "You know they are taking part in the 39 with you each year."
"Why, sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The 40 picks up pollen (花粉) from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If my neighbors grow 41 corn, cross-pollination (异花传粉) will affect the quality of my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors to grow good corn. "
The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve unless his neighbor's corn improves.
As a great man says, "We make a living by what we grow; we make a life by what we give." We can't 42 without food, clothes, and many other things. However, a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, 43 by how much we can give others. Giving, instead of taking, makes us 44 from other animals.
So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find 45 in their life.

解析试题分析:【小题1】There was a farmer who corn all his life.是说这个农民一生都在种玉米。所以选grew。
【小题2】后面一句won the first prize说他获得第一名,由此推断:他的玉米应该是最好的,best。
【小题3】在下文中,How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?(记者问农民为什么与邻居分享他的种子),从中可以看出是农民为邻居提供的种子,而不是借给(A),出示(B)和推荐(D)的。
【小题4】从第二段中Then each time his corn was chosen as the best and won the first prize,可以看出他们参加的是一年一度的竞赛competition。
【小题5】玉米的传授花粉,是靠风传播的,所以选wind。
【小题6】从下文cross-pollination (异花传粉) will affect the quality of my corn.一句可以看出,农民认为如果邻居种不好的种子必然会影响自己玉米的质量。所以要选bad。
【小题7】本句的后面说without food, clothes, and many other things可以看出,没有食物,当然就不能生存(live)了。
【小题8】本句a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, by how much we can give others的意思是说,有意义的人生不是由获取多少决定的,而是取决于给予了多少。所以应用表示转折的词but。
【小题9】人有着很高的世界观和人生观,知道给予和索取的关系。给予而不是索取让我们区别于动物。所以用different from。
【小题10】本句So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find in their life.的意思应该是:那些选择过得好的人,必须帮别人过得好;那些选择快乐的人,必须帮别人发现快乐。所以填happiness。
考点:考查完形填空的做法
点评:完形填空题是有一定难度的,所以对于本文,应该多读几遍,联系上下文,找出内在的关系。
