問題詳情：

     I will never forget the year when I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be _41_ Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, “What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d  42   ?” Just when I started to  43   that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women  44   at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of  45   that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t  46   . Somebody had thought  47   of me to bring me a gift. 

      Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my  48  Christmas there special and memorable, I  49  remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of  50   for as many children as I could possibly reach.

      So I  51   a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤兒) at the Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school supplies,  52   with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were  53  . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I __54   them that they couldn’t open their presents  55   every child had come forward. Finally the  56  they had been waiting for came as I called out, “One, two, three. Open your presents!” As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles _57   up the room. The _58   in the room was obvious, and  59   wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling –the feeling I knew  60   that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.
