    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(n) 【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 heaven and uttered aloud a( n) 【C8】______ thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread, whom from some 【C9】______ hand, would save 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 由句子结构可知,空格处所填词应为形容词,修饰thanksgiving。由thanksgiving后的定语从句可知,那位穷人望向天空,表达了诚挚的感激之情,因为这两枚硬币可以救活她生病的妻子和挨饿的孩子,所以选E项earnest“认真的,真诚的”。
