A sufferer of Hansen’s Disease in Fiji, with twisted hands, became an internationally known artist. “My    41   I see as a gift led me to my life’s work,” he said. “If it had not been for it, none of these things would have    42   .”

Some people succeed    43   handicaps（残疾）. Others succeed because of them. The   44   is that our problems help to make us what we are. Those who    45    often learn the value of sympathy. And those who    46   often teach others how to rise again. Our troubles can    47    us in ways a carefree（无忧无虑的）existence cannot.

A    48   is told about an Eastern village that through the centuries was known for its good pottery（陶器）. Especially    49   were its pots, high as tables, wide as chairs; they were    50   around the globe for their strong form and great beauty.

Legend has it that when each pot was seemingly    51   , there was still one final step. The craftsman    52    it---and then put it back together with gold filigree（金银丝）. A(n)    53   pot was then transformed into a priceless work of art. What seemed finished wasn’t until it was broken.

So it is with    54   ! Broken by hardships, disappointments and tragedies, they can become    55   and bitter.    56   when mended by a hand of patience and love, the finished     57   will be a work of beauty; a life could    58    reach its wholeness after it was broken.

If you feel broken,    59   that you are a work of art! And you may not actually be complete until the    60   are bonded with gold filigree of love.

1. 【答案】 what （改为which/that）【试题分析】本句是一个定语从句，that/which指代先行词fruit and vegetables在句中做主语。What不是定语从句的关系词。

2. 【答案】healthy（改为health）【试题分析】前面的形容词物主代词后面要接名词3. 3. 【答案】去掉into 【试题分析】句中的fall是一个系动词

4. 【答案】 follow（改为following）【试题分析】本句是一个分词做状语，代词follow与句子主语I构成逻辑上的主动关系，故使用现在分词的形式。

5. 【答案】 going（改为goes）【试题分析】本句的主语是an old saying一个古老的谚语，是一个单数形式，所以谓语动词也使用单数形式。
