    One day, a student was taking a walk with a professor. As they went along, they saw a pair of old shoes【C1】________in the path, which they supposed to belong to a poor man who was【C2】________in a field close by.
    The student said, "Let’s play a【C3】________on the man. We will hide his shoes, and conceal ourselves behind those bushes." "My young friend," answered the professor, "we should never【C4】________ourselves at the expense of the poor. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the【C5】________affects him. "
    The student did so, and they placed themselves behind the bushes. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his shoes. While putting on his coat he【C6】________his foot into one of his shoes; but feeling something hard, he found the coin. Wonder and【C7】________were seen upon his face. He proceeded to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin. He looked up to the heavens and uttered aloud an【C8】________thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread, whom from some 【C9】________hand, would save them from dying.
    The student stood there, 【C10】________affected. He said to the professor, "I feel now the truth of those words, which I never understood before: ’ It is more blessed to give than to receive’. "
【C8】
选项
答案E
解析 空格位于冠词an和名词thanksgiving之间，因此应填入以元音音素开头的形容词，修饰thanks giving。由thanksgiving后的定语从句可知，那位穷人仰望天空，表达了诚挚的感激之情。因为这两枚硬币可以救活他生病的妻子和挨饿的孩子，所以答案选E项earnest。
