(山东省东营市胜利一中2010届高三上学期模块考试)

I remember my first Christmas party with Grandma. I remember the day when my big sister dropped the bomb: "There is no Santa Claus," she laughed. "Even dummies know that!"

I fled to Grandma because I knew she always told me　 36　 . After I told her everything, she said "No Santa Claus? Don't believe it. Now, 　37　 your coat, and let's go. "

"Go? Go where?" I asked.

"Where"　 38　 to be the General Store. As we walked through its doors, Grandma　 39　 me ten dollars. That was a lot in those days. "Take this money and buy something for　 40　 who needs it. I'll wait for you in the car. "

The store seemed big and　 41　 , full of people hurrying to finish their Christmas Shopping. For a few moments I just stood there,　 42　 , holding that bill, wondering what to buy, and who on earth to buy it for.

Suddenly I thought of Bobbie who sat right behind me. I remembered he didn't have a coat. I fingered the bill with growing　 43　 . I would buy Bobbie a coat.

"Is this a Christmas present for someone?" the lady behind the　 44　 asked me kindly, as I laid my ten dollars down.

"Yes," I replied shyly. "It's. . . for Bobbie. "

The nice lady smiled at me. I didn't get any　 45　 , but she put the coat in a bag and wished me a Merry Christmas.

That evening, Grandma helped me　 46　 the coat and wrote, "To Bobby, From Santa Claus" on it. Then she 　47　 　me over to Bobbie's house.

Grandma parked down the street from Bobbie's house, and she and I crept (爬)　 48　 and hid in the　 49　 . Then Grandma gave me a sign. "All right, Santa Claus, get going. "

I took a deep　 50　 , dashed for his front door, threw the present down, pounded his doorbell and flew back to the safety. Together we　 51　 breathlessly in the darkness for the front door to open. Finally it　 52　 , and there stood Bobbie.

Forty years haven't dimmed (使变暗淡) the thrill (强烈的兴奋) of those　 53　 spent shivering (颤抖) ,beside my grandma, in Bobbie's bushes. 54　 , I realized: Santa was alive and well, and we were 　55　 his team.
