【完形填空A】

We convince ourselves that life will be better once we are married，have a baby，then another. Then we get _21_ because our children are not old enough，and that _22_ will be well when they are older. Then we are frost rated _23_ they reach adolescence and we must deal with them. Surely we'll be _24_ when they grow out of the teen years.

We tell ourselves our _25_ will be better when our spouse(配偶)gets his/her act together，when we have a nicer car，when we can take a _26_，when we finally retire. The _27_ is that there is no better time to be happy than _28_. If not，then when? Your life will always be full of _29_. It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy _30_it all.

For the longest time，it seemed that life was about to start--real life.

But there was always some obstacle(挫折)along the way，an ordeal(苦难) to _31_，some work to be finished，some time to be given，a bill to be _32_. Then life would _33_. It finally dawned on me that that those _34_ were part of life. Little by little，that point of _35_ also helped me see that there isn't any road to happiness.

Happiness is the road. So，_36_ every moment. And bear in mind that _37_ waits for no one. So stop _38_ school to end，for a return to school，to lose ten pounds，to _39_ ten pounds，for work to begin，to get married，… before deciding to be happy.

Happiness is a voyage，not a destination. There is no _40_ time to be happy than… NOW! Live and enjoy the moment.'

【完形填空B】

It was a hot summer day. The sun was shining brightly and all I could think of was_41_down with a scoop of my favorite ice cream. I decided to make a quick _42_to the newly opened ice cream parlor(冰淇淋店) close by for a mid-day _43_.

I ordered my ice cream in a fancy cone and asked the server to _44_two tubs of chocolate ice cream for folks at home.

_45_I knew it，I was halfway _46_my icy treat and was enjoying the view of the two colorfully prepared ice cream flavors，sitting pretty one next to the_47_.

Now that my to-go order was _48_，I headed to the payment counter to settle the bill. _49_，the cashier (收银员) had forgotten to bill my ice cream，_50_only for the two tubs.

The next few _51_passed by as I debated between doing what was_52_ — clearing the bill and moving out，and doing what was right —_53_the error. I knew if I didn’t bring the error in the bill to his _54_，my ice cream would be charged against his _55_.
