问题    I close my eyes and can still hear her—the little girl with a【C1】______so strong and powerful we could hear her halfway down the block. She was a(n)【C2】______peasant who asked for money and【C3】______gave the only thing she had—her voice. I paused outside a small shop and listened. She brought to my mind the【C4】______of Little Orphan Annie. I could not understand the words she【C5】______, but her voice begged for【C6】______. It stood out from the noises of Arbat Street, pure and impressive, like the chime of a bell. She sang【C7】______an old-style lamp post in the shadow of a building, her arms extended and【C8】______thrown back. She was small and of unremarkable looks. Her brown hair【C9】______the bun(发髻)it had been pulled into, and she occasionally reached up to【C10】______a stray piece from her face. Her clothing I can’t recall. Her voice, on the other hand, is【C11】______imprinted in my mind.
   I asked one of the translators about the girl. Elaina told me that she and hundreds of others like her throughout the【C12】______Soviet Union add to their families’ income by working on the streets. The children are unable to【C13】______school, and their parents work fulltime. These children know that the consequence of an【C14】______day is no food for the table. Similar situations occurred during the Depression(萧条)in the United States, but those American children were【C15】______shoeshine boys of the【C16】______. This girl was real to me.
   When we walked past her I gave her money. It was not out of pity【C17】______rather admiration. Her smile of【C18】______did not interrupt her singing. The girl watched us as we walked down the street. I know this because when I looked back she smiled again. We【C19】______that smile, and I knew I could never forget her courage and【C20】______strength.
