It couldn't be better if its owner was ready to quit his business. With great (lucky) I found just what I wanted eight blocks from home. Since I had never financially planned for this day, I had to borrow money from friends as well as (relative). I, together with my wife, (be) ready to start off. We changed the name to Black Dog Coffee, the menu, the recipes and the look of the caf6, and my wife did a great job of designing. Eighteen years later, we're still here and doing (well) than ever. I'm grateful the layoff and the opportunity to pursue my dream.

【答案】competitive；a；to realize；What；existing/existent；luck；relatives；was；better；for
【解析】本文是一篇記敘文，講述了作者失業(yè)了，由于年齡的原因，找工作很困難，于是作者決定追求自己的夢(mèng)想，開一家餐館。
（1）考查形容詞。修飾名詞market，用形容詞，所以填competitive。
（2）考查冠詞。泛指“一種不利條件”，且disadvantage的首字母發(fā)音是輔音，所以填不定冠詞a。
（3）考查固定句型。It's time for sb. to do sth.固定句型，“是某人做某事的時(shí)候了”，所以填to realize。
（4）考查主語(yǔ)從句。_____ was most difficult是一個(gè)主語(yǔ)從句，引導(dǎo)詞在從句中作主語(yǔ)，所以填what。
（5）考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。exist與其邏輯主語(yǔ)Café之間是主動(dòng)關(guān)系，所以用現(xiàn)在分詞作定語(yǔ)，所以填existing/existent。
（6）考查固定短語(yǔ)。with great luck固定短語(yǔ)，“非常幸運(yùn)”，所以填luck。
（7）考查名詞。我不得不向朋友們和親戚們借錢�！坝H戚們”是復(fù)數(shù)意義，所以用名詞復(fù)數(shù)，填relatives。
（8）考查時(shí)態(tài)。發(fā)生在過(guò)去的事情，用一般過(guò)去時(shí)，所以填was。
（9）考查形容詞。由than ever，可知這里用比較級(jí)，所以填better。
（10）考查固定短語(yǔ)。我對(duì)失業(yè)充滿了感激，它給了我追求夢(mèng)想的機(jī)會(huì)。be grateful for...固定短語(yǔ)，“對(duì)……心存感激”,故填for。

Dear Diary，
Here I am in the middle of a city，350miles far away from our farmhouse. Do you want to know why we move last week? Dad lost his job, and as Mom explained, "He was lucky to find other one ”. His new job meant I had to say goodbye to my classmate, my school or just everything else I love in the world. To make matters bad, now I have to share a room with my younger sister, Maggie. Tomorrow is first day of school. I am awfully tiring, but I know I'll never fall sleep.
Good night and remember, you, dear diary, is my only souvenir from my past life and my only friend.
Yours,
Rosemary
