Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then how? Here is an example.
There was a farmer who 36 corn（玉米）all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market. Then each time his corn was chosen as the 37 and won the first prize.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something surprising about how he grew it. The farmer 38 his seed（做種子的) corn to his neighbors.
"How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?" the reporter asked. "You know they are taking part in the 39 with you each year."
"Why, sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The 40 picks up pollen (花粉) from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If my neighbors grow 41 corn, cross-pollination (異花傳粉) will affect the quality of my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors to grow good corn. "
The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve unless his neighbor's corn improves.
As a great man says, "We make a living by what we grow; we make a life by what we give." We can't 42 without food, clothes, and many other things. However, a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, 43 by how much we can give others. Giving, instead of taking, makes us 44 from other animals.
So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find 45 in their life.

解析試題分析：【小題1】There was a farmer who corn all his life.是說這個農民一生都在種玉米。所以選grew。
【小題2】后面一句won the first prize說他獲得第一名，由此推斷：他的玉米應該是最好的，best。
【小題3】在下文中，How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?(記者問農民為什么與鄰居分享他的種子)，從中可以看出是農民為鄰居提供的種子，而不是借給（A），出示（B）和推薦（D）的。
【小題4】從第二段中Then each time his corn was chosen as the best and won the first prize，可以看出他們參加的是一年一度的競賽competition。
【小題5】玉米的傳授花粉，是靠風傳播的，所以選wind。
【小題6】從下文cross-pollination (異花傳粉) will affect the quality of my corn.一句可以看出，農民認為如果鄰居種不好的種子必然會影響自己玉米的質量。所以要選bad。
【小題7】本句的后面說without food, clothes, and many other things可以看出，沒有食物，當然就不能生存（live）了。
【小題8】本句a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, by how much we can give others的意思是說，有意義的人生不是由獲取多少決定的，而是取決于給予了多少。所以應用表示轉折的詞but。
【小題9】人有著很高的世界觀和人生觀，知道給予和索取的關系。給予而不是索取讓我們區別于動物。所以用different from。
【小題10】本句So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find in their life.的意思應該是：那些選擇過得好的人，必須幫別人過得好；那些選擇快樂的人，必須幫別人發現快樂。所以填happiness。
考點：考查完形填空的做法
點評：完形填空題是有一定難度的，所以對于本文，應該多讀幾遍，聯系上下文，找出內在的關系。
