Ⅰ.完形填空
My children are growing up fast. My daughter is 16 years old now. Last year my son was in primary school, and now he is 1 in junior high school—he passed the entrance exam earlier than his classmates. As they get bigger, our house seems to get 2. So we want to 3 some of our things in a yard sale to raise money and give the money to a children's home.
We have already 4 a lot of things from our bedrooms—most of them are old toys and clothes we don't need anymore. We have already decided 5 five things each that we no longer use—after all, the money will help kids in the children's home. My son was quite sad at first. 6 he had not played with his old toys for a long time, he still wanted to keep 7—especially the train set and the toy monkey he loved most. For example, he has owned a train and railway set 8 his fourth birthday, and he played with it almost every week 9 he was about seven. And he did not want to lose his toy monkey, 10. And he told me that it was the 11 memory of his childhood—he even made a small blanket for the monkey by himself when he was five. My daughter was more 12, although she also felt sad to part 13 certain toys.
As for me, I did not want to 14 my football shirts, but, to be honest, I have not played for a while now. My legs feel heavier than before, and I am getting older, too! I 15 start to accept that I can't play as well as before.
