　　第二节 (共10分;每小题1.5分，满分15分)

　　阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

　　On my first day of Kindergarten, I was both excited and a little 41 (scare). The large classroom was full of books and toys, two things 42 I loved. But it was also full of 43 (kid) all larger than me. Because my birthday was in late September, I was allowed in at only 4 years old, and this meant that I was bound to be the 44 (small) kid in my class.

　　I think that my Mom sensed I was a little afraid. That was 45 she was always there to pick me up right after school when I could have 46 (easy) rode the bus. I would jump in the front seat next to her and tell her all about my day. Sometimes we would even read a book and wait until all the cars and buses had left before we 47 (drive) home. I treasured those special times when I had my Mom all to 48 (me). I felt so safe and peaceful when we sat in the car together. 49 (begin) the new challenge of school didn’t seem so difficult when I knew that I could talk 50 it with her. Being a tiny, little kid in a big scary world wasn’t so bad either. I knew that my Mom loved me and that was all I needed to be loving, joyful, and strong.
