三、完形填空（共10小题：每小题1分，满分10分）
When I was a child of seven years old, my friends, on a holiday, filled my pocket with coppers. I went at once to __36___ where they sold toys for children. Being charmed with the sound of a whistle，I __37___ all my money for one. I then came home, and went whistling all over the house, much__38___ with my whistle,. My brothers and sisters said I had given four times as much as the whistle was worth. They put me in mind of what good things I might have bought with the rest of the money, They __39___ at me so much for my folly that I cried with vexation(烦恼). Thinking about the matter gave me more__40___ than the whistle gave me pleasure.
This, however, when I was tempted to buy something I did not need, I said to myself, “Don’t give too much for the whistle, ”and I__41__my money. As I grew up, came into the world, and observed the actions of men, I thought I met with many, very many, who “gave too much for the whistle.”
If I knew a miser（守财奴） who __42___ comfortable living, for the sake of gathering and keeping wealth--- “Poor man,” said I, “ you pay too dear for your whistle.” When I met a man of pleasure, who did not try to improve his mind or his fortune but merely __43___ himself to having a good time, perhaps neglecting his health, “ Mistaken man, you are providing pain __44___ pleasure for yourself; you are paying too dear for your whistle.” If I saw someone fond of appearance who has fine clothes, fine houses, fine furniture, fine earrings, all above his fortune, and for which he had run into debt, and __45___ his career in a prison. “Alas,” said I, “he has paid dear, very dear, for his whistle.”
In short the miseries of mankind are largely due to their puffing a false value on things --- to giving “too much for their whistle.”
