注意：每个空格只填1个单词。（共10分。）
Mayme Clayton collected books, magazines and letters written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton, thought her collection was important. Unlike most books, these were rare and hard to find. They were written by writers who helped shape African American culture.
One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish (出版) a book. Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else owns a copy signed by Phillis Wheatley.
By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists. It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in the United States.
Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures. Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work, part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know these things existed,” says Sara Hadron of California’s Huntington Library.
The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others. He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection. “ At present African American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “ It’s important to offer a more complete picture.”

【小题1】文章中第一句话 Mayme Clayton collected books, magazines and letters written by African Americans.中就说了她Mayme Clayton收集非裔美国人写的书、杂志、信件。like后跟名词的-ing形式或者不定式形式，这里不是表示将要发生的动作而是一直持续的动作。应该用-ing形式，故填collecting，收集
【小题2】文章中说她83岁去世By the time she passed away at age 83，如果填一个词，应该填die，文章用过去时态叙述，时态保持一致，故填died，死亡。
【小题3】Unlike most books, these were rare and hard to find.不像大多数书籍，这些书很少并且很难找到。所以和其他书相比，她收集的书不能被容易的找到。修饰动词found，故用easy的副词形式easily，容易地。
【小题4】文章中说No one else owns a copy signed by Phillis Wheatley.所以，她收集的是唯一一本由Phillis Wheatley亲笔签名的打印版书籍。故填signed，签名。
【小题5】文章提到Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists.她的收集包括关于奴隶的报纸，照片，电影，乐谱和领导人艺术家们的个人信件等，她的收集很庞大，这里应填包括一词，而She had a large collection已经是一个完整的句子，所以应该用现在分词形式做补语，故填including，包括。
【小题6】文章中提到Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important.，学者说克莱顿夫人的收集非常重要。of+名词=be+形容词。故填important的名词形式importance，重要性。
【小题7】由文中原句Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures和Part of Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others.可知建图书馆以及把这些财富分享给他人都是克莱顿夫人的儿子Avery Clayton的梦想，这里填名词的所有格形式son’s，意为她儿子的。
【小题8】由文中原句Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures可知他的梦想是建立一座图书馆。一座，所以是单数，填museum，名词，图书馆。
