第三部分 完形填空(每小题1.5分,满分30分)
The smell of old, dusty books reminds me of my father. An avid (贪婪的) 31 , he had many books, most of which went unread.
He owned books on 32 from medicine to Vietnam (越南) to several sets of encyclopedias (百科全书). When I enter one of his 33 bookshops, such as Powell's, I am 34 back to a time when the two of us were 35 .
I see him standing by a shelf (书架), 36 through a medical magazine, or opening his wallet to pay for yet 37 book, knowing full well that Mom would 38 him on "wasting money on books you never 39 !"
Walking past rows (排) and rows of books in our study, I remember 40 , after the cancer struck, he came less and less and read fewer and fewer books. They became just part of the 41 , collecting only dust and 42 .
Near the end, perhaps knowing he would never get to read them all, he gave almost all of the books away, 43 only a few. He treated them with an almost holy (神圣的) reverence (崇敬), 44 any crease (皱褶) or damage would destroy them totally. 45 was the man who would brush aside a huge coffee mark, replaced by one who would 46 into terrible rages (狂怒) at a small crease.
I have read a few now, after he died, and each time it causes a 47 . But I suppose it is a kind of quest (追求), because if I can take on his thirst for 48 , cheerful smile, and willingness to help others, then like a match in the darkness, I will bring a little light into the world. And if that light 49 others, maybe it will spread far and 50 , to light up the heavens. I think he'd like that.
