【解析】

试题分析：本文讲述了作者在超市遇见一位买了很多东西的男人，他把东西分成两份，自己留下一小份，把更大的一份拜托作者给了超市入口收集食物的安琪拉来帮助那些面临饥饿的人。这让作者对独立有了新的认识，在自身条件艰难的情况下还去帮助别人，他就是一个独立坚强的人

1.考查名词。 Taxi出租车；wheelchair轮椅；grocery食品杂货店；bench长凳。根据常识可知在超市买东西，排除了A、C两项，如果要坐也只有B符合语境，不可能搬着长凳坐。故选B。

2.考查介词。Before在...之前；behind在....之后；near在...附近；beyond在...较远的一边。根据上文可知我们排在了坐轮椅的人后面。故选B。

3.考查名词。 Difficulty困难；potential潜能；doubt怀疑；ability能力。根据下文提到把东西收起来都不是件容易的事，暗示把东西放上去也不容易。故选A。

4.考查动词。Regretted后悔；recognized认识；requested要求；realized认识到。 根据句意：一会之后，我意识到他其实是在把东西分成两份。Realize作为及物动词，可以表达“认识到;了解”的意思，recognize也可以用作及物动词，表示“认出;辩认;认识”的意思，但realize是指“抽象”上的“意识到”；recognize是指“具体”的“认出”。故选D。

5.考查形容词。 Special特别的；obvious明显的；easy容易的；necessary必须的。根据句意：把东西收起来都不是件容易完成的任务。故选C。

6.考查动词。 Struggled奋斗；offered提供；forced强迫；preferred偏爱。根据句意：我主动提供帮助。故选B。

7.考查名词。Control控制；consideration考虑；repair修理；attack攻击。固定搭配under control 处于控制之下，情况正常。故选A。

8.考查动词。 Mind介意；finish完成；enjoy喜欢；escape逃脱。根据句意：他问朱莉是否介意帮他把空篮子拿走。短语would you mind doing sth 你介意做某事吗。故选A。

9.考查动词。Hoped希望；chose选择；reached伸出；begged请求。根据句意：接着他伸手摸他放在椅子另一边袋子里的钱包。短语reach for 伸手去拿。故选C。

10.考查名词。Leg腿；knee膝盖；foot脚；arm手臂。根据上下文可知他的一只手去拿钱包了，因此只剩一只手去装东西了。故选D。

11.考查动词。Warned警告；wondered想知道；feared畏惧；insisted坚持。根据句意：我想知道，那么依赖别人生活该是什么一种情况呀。故选B。

12.考查名词。Change找回的零钱；bill票据；note笔记；coin硬币。根据句意：收银员给他找零和他需要上交的条目。故选A。

13.考查不定指示词。 More更多；another有一个；other另位一个；the other另一个。根据上文可知坐轮椅的人把东西分成了两部分，装在两个袋子，一个是他自己拿着小袋子，因此这里应用the other 。故选D。

14.考查副词。Desperately拼命地；faithfully忠实地；sadly悲伤地；gratefully感激地。根据句意：我照他说的做。故选B。

15.考查形容词。Thirsty口渴的；tired疲劳的；hungry饥饿的；crazy疯狂的。根据常识可知食物是为了吃，句意是给那些饥饿的人。故选C。

16.考查名词。mental 精神的；natural自然的；official官方的；physical身体的。根据上文可知这个男人身体不好，坐轮椅，这是他身体上的局限。故选D。

17.考查动词。Admired羡慕；limited限制；forgotten忘记；accepted接受。根据上句中的身体上的局限性，limitation暗示了此处用limited。故选B。

18.考查动名词。 Overcoming克服；keeping保持；passing通过；destroying破坏。根据句意：他的心能够克服着一切。故选A。

19.考查名词。Pride骄傲；patience耐心；dependence独立；bravery勇敢。根据上文中作者还认为这个男人还的依赖别人，不能独立。而此时她对独立性有了新认识。故选C。

20.考查形容词。other than除了；more than多余；less than少于；rather than宁可...也不愿。根据上文可知他把装有更多食物的袋子给了别人，自己只留一个小的，由此可知他给与别人的帮助多过他收到过的帮助。故选B。
