  幼年时戴维曾给圣诞老人写了一封信,信里列出了他想要的礼物。但是圣诞节那天他并没有收到那些礼物。几十年后,一名建筑工人在一所老房子的烟囱里发现了这封信。他设法联系到了已经七十多岁的老戴维,并帮他实现了当年的愿望。
  Christmas was hanging around. Six?year?old David Smith was eager to get Santa’s presents, so he wrote a letter and made a list of the items on it. Then he bent down to post the letter up the chimney, waiting for the air current to take 1 up.
  David got up very early on the Christmas morning. He searched his room carefully, but to his 2 (disappoint), he didn’t find the presents he hoped for. Although upset, David was convinced that Santa would not forget him.
  72 years passed. Lewis Shaw, a young 3 (build), was removing the fireplace of an old house with his colleagues when he suddenly uncovered a small piece of paper, which was still in perfect condition even if it had turned yellow. He picked it up and unfolded it. This was a letter 4 (write)to Santa. The touching handwritten note read:
  Dear Father Christmas,Please can you send me Rupert Annual and a drum, box of chalk, slippers(拖鞋), silk tie, pencil box, any little toys you have to spare.
  Love,
  David
  It was then signed off with lots of kisses.
  This was 5 very letter written by little David Smith and the house was the one he had lived in during his childhood!
  What simple Christmas presents David was asking for and 6 modest he was! But children today, in Shaw’s eyes, were ungrateful and would email Santa, demanding expensive things and taking it for granted.
  Shaw decided to find out the author of the letter. He shared a photo of the note on Facebook. He also spoke to the neighbors on both sides of the house. Within two days he connected with David, the now 78?year?old man living in a town nearby. They met at the old house, 7 Shaw returned him the letter. What a great surprise it was that he could read the letter again so many years after he wrote it!
  A great surprise was on the way. After a pleasant chat, Shaw 8 (hand)David a box. Inside it found David all the presents he had listed in the letter. In fact, it had taken Shaw much time 9 (collect)these presents. He didnt even know Rupert Annual was a magazine for children before he’s able to get one. David was quite 10 (excite)—he finally had his Christmas wishes fulfilled (完成)!

  Ⅲ.美句赏析
  1.Lewis Shaw, a young builder, was removing the fireplace of an old house with his colleagues when he suddenly uncovered a small piece of paper, which was still in perfect condition even if it had turned yellow.一个名叫Lewis Shaw年轻的建筑工人正在与同事清除一所旧房子的壁炉时,突然发现了一张小纸条。纸条虽然已经泛黄,但仍然完好无损。
  点拨:这是一个并列复合句。when是并列连词,意思是“这时”。“过去进行时 when 一般过去时”意为“正……就在这时/忽然……”。后一个分句中含有which引导的定语从句,修饰a small piece of paper。定语从句部分还包含even if引导的让步状语从句。
  微练:句式仿写
  我正在家里消磨时间,忽然发现了你们培训中心的电脑课程。
  2.This was the very letter written by little David Smith and the house was the one he had lived in during his childhood! 这正是小David Smith写的那封信,并且那正是他童年时居住的房子!
  点拨:这是and连接的并列句。过去分词短语written by little David Smith用作定语,修饰the very letter, very的意思是“恰好的”;he had lived in during his childhood是省略了关系代词that/which的定语从句,修饰the one,the one指上面的名词the house。

  (2016浙江卷)当选择课程的最后时间到来时,我决定申请一个能反映我的爱好的那个。
  3.What a great surprise it was that he could read the letter again so many years after he wrote it!他写信这么多年后又能读到这封信,这对他来说真是一个莫大的惊喜!
  点拨:这是一个what感叹句。what 修饰a great surprise,用作表语,其主语是it。句中还包含that引导的同位语从句,该从句修饰surprise。that引导同位语从句时,常放在抽象名词truth,news,information,hope,message,以及word(消息)等后面。
