　　Ⅱ.完形填空

　　(2012·高考大纲全国卷Ⅱ)Around twenty years ago I was living in York.__1__ I had a lot of experience and a Master’s degree，I could not find __2__ work.

　　I was __3__ a school bus to make ends meet and __4__ with a friend of mine，for I had lost my flat.I had __5__ five interviews (面试) with a company and one day between bus runs they called to say I did not __6__ the job.“Why has my life become so __7__？” I thought painfully.

　　As I pulled the bus over to __8__ a little girl，she handed me an earring __9__ I should keep it __10__ somebody claimed (认领) it.The earring was painted black and said “BE HAPPY”．

　　At first I got angry.Then it __11__ me － I had been giving all of my __12__ to what was going wrong with my __13__ rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a __14__ of fifty things I was happy with.Later，I decided to __15__ more things to the list.That night there was a phone call for __16__ from a lady who was a director at a large __17__.She asked me if I would __18__ a one-day lecture on stress (压力) management to 200 medical workers.I said yes.

　　My __19__ there went very well，and before long I got a well-paid job.To this day I know that it was because I changed my way of __20__ that I completely changed my life.

　　【语篇解读】　文中讲述“我”尽管有丰富的工作经验和硕士学位，但在找工作的过程中屡遭挫折。一个小女孩交给我一个刻有“开心快乐”的黑耳环，使我无意间意识到我的错误所在，我改变了思维方式，积极地面对生活。经过不懈努力，我终于找到了一份待遇不错的工作。告诫人们不要总是只看到生活中不好的一面，而要多看到其阳光的一面。
