76．句意：他为那天的愤怒感到抱歉。根据“…sorry for his anger”可知，约翰对自己的愤怒感到后悔，feel sorry for“为……感到后悔/抱歉”，全文时态为一般现在时，主语He是第三人称单数，故填(f)eels。
77．句意：当他发现里面什么都没有时，他又生气了。根据“…he finds nothing inside”可知，表示他当发现盒子里没有东西时又生气了，空处应填when，引导时间状语从句。故填(w)hen。
78．句意：你在跟我开玩笑吗？play a trick on sb.“捉弄某人”，固定短语。故填(t)rick。
79．句意：他搂着他的小女儿说：“对不起，亲爱的。请原谅我。”空后是约翰说的话，say“说”符合语境，全文时态为一般现在时，主语是He，say用三单形式。故填(s)ays。
80．句意：当他感到难过时，他会从盒子里拿出一个吻，记住女儿的爱。根据“he will take a kiss out of the box”可知，是记住女儿对自己的爱，love“爱”符合语境。故填(l)ove。
