During the Second World War．John’s family didn’t have a washing machine．Therefore，1  （keep）clothes clean became a problem for them.
Before long，a family friend decided  2  （join）the army and his wife was going with  him．John’s family told them that they could take care of their furniture while they were away. To the  3  （family）surprise，the friend suggested they should use his Bendix washing machine．“It would be better for it to  4 （use），rather than sitting 5 （quiet），”he said．
Young John helped with the washing，and he developed a deep love of the old，green Bendix． 6 （Late），the war ended and the family’s friend returned．When he came to take the machine away．John became very sad．His mother saw this and said to  7 （he）．“Son， you must remember that machine didn’t belong to us in the 8  （one）place. It was a gift for us to be able to use it for such a long time．So，instead of  9 （be）sad about the loss．Let’s be grateful that we  10 （be）able to use it at that time.”
We have all experienced loss：loss of people and things．However，if we see the thing we 11 （lose）as a gift that we were given for a time，maybe the sad  12 （memory）will change into  13 （thank）ones．

Answer 1

1．keeping／to keep     2．to join     3．family’s      4．be used
5．quickly    6．Later     7．him       8．first       9．being
10．were    11．have lost    12．memories    13．Thankful

1.此處缺少主語，故應(yīng)用動(dòng)詞的非謂語形式，keeping或to keep 皆可。句意：因此，保持服裝的清潔對(duì)他們來說是一個(gè)重要的問題。
2.decide to do sth 為固定搭配。意為“決定做某事”。句意：不久之后，一個(gè)家族的朋友決定去參軍，他的妻子也隨行。
3.to one’s surprise為固定搭配，意為:讓某人感到奇怪的是。此處應(yīng)填名詞所有格形式。句意：讓家人感到震驚的是，這位朋友建議使用他的洗衣機(jī)。
4.洗衣機(jī)是被使用，故應(yīng)用被動(dòng)語態(tài)形式。
5.副詞修飾動(dòng)詞，故quiet需用動(dòng)詞形式quietly。
6.later“后來”。句意：后來，戰(zhàn)爭結(jié)束了，家族的朋友回來了。
7.此處to 為介詞，故其后的代詞應(yīng)用賓格形式。
8.in the first place 為固定搭配，意為“從一開始”。句意：兒子，你必須要記得那臺(tái)洗衣機(jī)從一開始就不屬于我們。
9.介詞后應(yīng)用動(dòng)名詞做賓語。故填being.
10.此處用了虛擬語氣。故are應(yīng)改為were.
11.此處指已經(jīng)丟了的東西。故應(yīng)填完成式。句意：如果我們把我們已經(jīng)丟了的東西看成是一件禮物 ，也許悲傷的記憶也會(huì)變成感激的記憶。
12.此處泛指概念，故應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)形式。
13．和前文的sad memories 對(duì)應(yīng)，此處也應(yīng)用形容詞形式。故應(yīng)填thankful.
