For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of  5that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t  6. Somebody had thought  7of me to bring me a gift. 

      Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my  8Christmas there special and memorable, I  9remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of  10for as many children as I could possibly reach.

      So I  11a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤兒) at the Christmas party.

   解析：本題考查動詞辨析。由上文可知，還是小孩子的我，在圣誕節來臨，我應該是收到禮物，所以選擇receiving。

2.C

4.C

解析：本題考查動詞短語辨析。四個選項：break in闖入；settle down安居；turn up出現；show off炫耀。聯系上下文此處是出現在我家，給我們圣誕禮物，故選擇C，意思最貼切。

5.A

解析：本題考查名詞辨析。根據下文：I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school（當我回到學校時，我不會再感到難堪了。）結合四個選項的意思，可以推斷出此處是表示我解脫了，送了一口氣，故選擇A。

6.C

解析：本題考查動詞辨析。分析四個選項，結合上下文，可以得知，這件禮物對我是多么重要，所以此處表達我將不會忘記這件事情，故選擇C。

7.D

8.B

解析：本題考查形容詞辨析。聯系上下文，提到是new house，肯定選擇first，西方人對于圣誕節很重視，是一家人團圓的日子，所以此時表達重要性，作者想讓自己在新家過的第一個圣誕節有意義。選擇B。

12.D

解析：本題考查不定代詞辨析。根據作者的想法，應該是每個人都有自己的圣誕節禮物，所以選擇每個人（each）。
