Question

完形填空。

Shortly after my daughter Julia-Ann was born, I started a loving tradition that I know others (with whom I have subsequently shared this special plan) have also started. Every year, on her   1  , I write an Annual Letter to my daughter. I   2   it with funny anecdotes (轶事, 趣闻) that happened to her that year, hardships or   3  , issues that are   4   in my life or hers, world events, my   5   for the future, miscellaneous (各种各样 的) thoughts, etc. I add   6   the letter photographs, presents, report cards and many   7   types of mementos (纪念品) that would certainly have otherwise   8   as the years passed.      I keep a   9   in my desk drawer in which, all year long, I place things that I want to  10  in the envelope containing her next Annual Letter. Every week, I make short notes of what I can think  11  from the week's events that I will want to  12  later in the year to write in her Annual Letter.  13  her birthday approaches, I take out that folder and find it  14  with ideas, thoughts, poems, cards, treasures, stories, incidents and memories of all sorts-many of which I have already forgotten-and  15  I then  16  transcribe (抄写) into that year's Annual Letter.      Once the letter is written and all the  17  are inserted into the envelope, I seal it. It then becomes that year's Annual Letter. On the envelope I always write "Annual Letter to Julia-Ann from her daddy on the  18  of her birthday to be opened when she is 21 years old." It is a time capsule of love from every different year of her life, to her as an adult. It is a gift of  19  memories from one generation to the next. It is a  20  record of her life written as she was actually living it.
