Answer 1

分析 本文主要讲的是一个女孩曾经英语很差，可是经过自己不懈的努力，最后英语得了很高的分数，给自己以后学好英语增强了信心．由此自己得出了结论：努力似乎是黑暗里的明灯，照亮了我们成功的路，也给我们带来了希望．

解答 61．to achieve  考查非谓语动词．try one's best to do sth"尽力干某事"是固定搭配．故填to achieve．
62．which  考查非限制性定语从句．根据空前的逗号和句意：这些努力似乎是黑暗中的灯，引领着通往希望与成功的道路．可知此处是非限制性定语从句，先行词在从句中作主语且指物，故填which．
63．a  考查冠词．girl是可数名词，而且此处是泛指"一个"女孩．且shy是以辅音音素开头的词．故填a．
64．changed  考查时态．因after引导的状语从句用过去时，所以断定主句的动作也是过去发生的．故填changed．
65．interesting  考查形容词．此处是修饰名词story作定语，应用形容词interesting"有趣的"．故填interesting．
66．patiently  考查副词．因为修饰动词的是副词，所以修饰动词help的是副词patiently，故填patiently．
67．watching  考查非谓语动词．因by是介词，介词后如果接动词就用动名词的形式，即ing形式．再者by doing"通过某种方式"，也算是固定用法．故填watching．
68．by  考查固定搭配．littleby little是固定短语，意为"渐渐地"，故填by．
69．it  考查形式宾语．分析句子成分可知，此处it是形式宾语代替后面的动词不定式 to learn English，故填it．
70．confidence  考查名词．分析句子成分可知，此处作谓语had的宾语，所以应用confident的名词形式，故填confidence．
