Jim, a successful businessman, told the experience of his childhood.
When he was 12 years old, his parents died. He was alone and didn’t get on well with others. People always laughed at him. No one showed        to him.
His only friend was a dog named Tige. He gave his dog enough to eat and drink, but sometimes he was not       to it. He didn’t know that an unkind word sometimes could cut one’s heart like a knife.
One day as he walked down the street, a young lady was walking in front of him. One of her bags dropped from her arms. As she stopped to        , she dropped other bags. He came to help her. “Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!” She said kindly, smiling.
A special feeling came to him. It was the first time that he had heard such kind words. He watched her      she went far away, and then he whistled(低语)to his dog and went directly to the river     .
“Thanks, dear! You are a nice little boy!” He repeated what the woman said. Then in a low   he said to his dog, “You are a nice little dog.” Tige raised its ears as if it understood.
“Hmm! Even a dog likes it!”he said. “Well, Tige, I won’t say anything unkind to you   .” Tige waved its tail happily.
The boy thought and thought. Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw      but a dirty boy. He washed his face carefully. Again he saw a       nice boy. He was amazed. From then on, he started a new life.
After telling this, the businessman said, “This is the very place in which that kind woman planted the first seed of kindness in my heart.” What a great      it has!

试题分析:本文是一个成功的商人讲述了童年时对他有着巨大启发和鼓舞的一次经历。他的父母早亡,自己不善交际,得不到周围人的关爱,又一次他帮一个女士捡包的举动却得到了女士的感谢,以及狗也喜欢听好话,使他重新认识了自己,善待别人,赢得尊重。
小题1:考查名词及语境的理解。根据本段He was alone and didn’t get on well with others. People always laughed at him.内容可推知作者得不到周围人的关爱(kindness),故选A。
小题2:考查形容词及语境的理解。由but可知前后应该为转折的语义关系,所以应该是一方面给狗足够的吃的喝的,一方面有时又对狗不够友好;故选D。
小题3:考查动词及语境的理解。当包掉到地上后自然是停下来去捡起来,即pick sth up,而find意为“找到,发现”,look up意为“查找”,give up意为“放弃”;故选B。
小题4:考查连词及语境的理解。这个女士对他感激的话使他很意外,所以他看着那个女士直到她走远;after意为“在…之后”,since意为“自从…以来”,because意为“因为,由于”;故选A。
小题5:考查副词及语境的理解。在女士离开后男孩和狗说话并且去了附近的河边;near为介词,在…附近,nearly,副词,几乎,差不多,nearby,形容词,附近的,多放在所修饰的名词之后;故选B。
小题6:考查名词及语境的理解。本句是说男孩低声跟狗说话。sound作“声音”,“响声”讲时,可以指人或动物发出的声音,或物体碰撞的声言;noise意为“噪音”、“喧闹声”,常指不悦耳、不和谐的嘈杂声;voice一般指人的声音,说话、唱歌、谈笑都可用voice;故选C。
小题7:考查副词及语境的理解。即使狗都喜欢听好话,所以以后他再也不对够说难听的话了。本句考查不再做某事的表达,即not…any longer/more;故选D。
小题8:考查代词及语境的理解。通过河水的映射他看到的只是一个脏兮兮的小男孩。nothing but除……外;什么也没有;只有;anything but 绝不,根本不;故选B。
小题9:考查形容词及语境的理解。男孩洗完脸后脸自然就变得干净了;而不可能是脏的,微笑的,或者生气的;故选A。
小题10:考查名词及语境的理解。作者的感慨是“这就是那个女士在他的心中种下第一颗善良的种子的地方”,所以他说:“它的力量是多么的神奇呀”;故选D。

I grew up in a small town. When I was in the third grade, I was chosen to be the        in the school play. My mother helped me practice my lines for weeks. But once I stepped onto the stage, I was too nervous to        the words. Finally, my teacher asked me to         the role to a storyteller. I didn’t tell my mother        had happened when I went home for lunch that day. She knew that I was        from my look. She asked if I wanted to go for a walk in the yard.
It was a lovely         day and the grass was turning green. We could see a lot of yellow dandelions(蒲公英)in the grass. I watched my mother walking towards a dandelion and         it up by its roots(根茎). “From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.” she said. “But I like dandelions,” I said. “All        are beautiful —— even dandelions!”
“Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way. And that is true of       too. Not everyone can be a princess. You will be a beautiful storyteller,” my mother said, reminding me of how much I       to read stories to her. “The storyteller’s part is just as      as the part of a princess.”
The big day         came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher handed me a      . I looked at it and thought of our        talk. It made me        .
After the play, I took the flower home, and kept it in our family dictionary.
