### 一、完形填空（10分）
“你可以挑选一只，”我的一个朋友打电话来说。她的猫几周前刚生了一窝小猫。我不知道自己是否已经准备好，但她似乎不会轻易放弃。“好吧，”我说，“小猫多大了？”“它们是3月22日出生的。”
3月22日，这个我永远不会忘记的日子。我的妻子苏在同一天去世了。一系列的回忆涌上我的心头。
近十年来，苏一直在与重病作斗争。在整个艰难的过程中，我们的老猫布米一直陪伴在她身边。当疼痛最剧烈的时候，它滑稽的举动总能让苏露出笑容。苏的戒指丢了之后，布米甚至还让她开心起来。
疾病使苏的体重下降了很多。这一定就是戒指从她手指上掉下来的原因。我把房子上上下下都找遍了，想找到那枚戒指，但运气不佳。苏去世后，布米就不再吃东西了。不久，它也离开了我们。
我感谢朋友的好意，下定决心抓住这个机会。我的新小猫终于到了，我决定给它取名为贝尔——法语中是“美丽的女士”的意思。它让这个家重新恢复了生机。
一天早上，我听到房间里有动静。我去查看。贝尔正在玩一个闪闪发亮的东西。我把它捡起来。那正是丢失的戒指。我太惊讶了，简直不敢相信！
