In the dining room of my grandfather’s hou

题目内容：

In the dining room of my grandfather’s house stood a massive grandfather clock. Meals in that dining room were a time for three 36to become one. The table was always spread with 37containing love as the main ingredient (成分). And that grandfather clock stood like an old family friend, watching over the 38that was a part of our lives.

As a child, the old clock fascinated me. I 39and listened to it during meals. Even more wonderful to me was my grandfather’s ritual (老习惯). He wound (上发条) that clock with a(n) 40key carefully each day. I remember watching 41my grandfather took the key from his pocket and opened the hidden door in the clock. He inserted the key and wound — not too much, nor too 42. He never let that clock wind down and 43. He showed us grandchildren how to open the door and let us each take 44winding the key.

After my grandfather died, it was days after the funeral 45I remembered the clock! The tears 46freely when I entered the dining room. The clock stood there quiet.

Some time later, my grandmother gave me the key. The old house was 47. No laughter over the dinner table, no ticking or chiming of the 48— all was still. I took the key in my shaking hand and 49the clock door. All of a sudden, I was a 50again, watching my grandfather with his silver-white hair and blue eyes. He was there, 51at me, at the secret of the clock's magic, at the key that held so much power.

I stood there, 52in thought for a long time. Then slowly and 53I inserted the key and wound the clock. It sprang to life. Tick-tock, tick-tock, life and chimes were breathed into the dining room, into the house and into my 54. With the movement of the hands of the clock, my grandfather55again.
