二、完形填空。(共15小题,每小题1分,满分15分)
My dad had travelled many miles to visit me. Dad stayed a month and I was busy in the library for those weeks. He liked to 1 my dog, Dustin. I always reminded him to lock all the doors before he left. I did not tell him that the two young men next 2 were troublemakers. They had been known to throw their mother out of the front door and steal her money.
I got home one 3 Tuesday, worried that my dad might feel too hot on his walk, however, no, he was 4 than usual. His eighty-year-old face shone with excitement. "You'll 5 guess what happened to me today," he said. "It could have been unlucky, but it worked out 6 . I locked myself out."
"Oh, Dad, you should have called 7 ," I said.
"I didn't take the phone with me," he went on. "I was 8 because by the time we got home, Dustin was really thirsty. Luckily, those 9 young men from next door helped me get 10 ."
I almost got up from my chair to 11 the gold and my jewelry box. Dad always left a pile of dollars and coins 12 the table in the bedroom and that door was wide open. I noticed that the 13 was still there.
"After we got in, I gave the dog a 14 , and then I made a pot of tea. Those young men and I sat and talked for a bit here in the kitchen."
I later found 15 missing from my house. Dad was pleased that he had solved the problem. The remaining time of Dad's vacation went quickly. Many times I went out in the yard to watch him chatting with his new friends. The locked door wasn't the only thing opened that day.
