Butterfly’s wings
One day a small opening appeared on a cocoon(茧), a man sat and watched for the butterfly for several hours as it was struggling to  1  its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten  2  it could and it could go no further. So the man decided to  3  the butterfly: he took a pair of scissors and  4  the remaining part of the cocoon. The butterfly then  5  easily.
But it has a swollen(肿胀的) body and  6  wings. The man continued to  7  the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the  8  would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would  9 in time. Neither happened!  10,  the butterfly spent the rest of its life  11 around with a swollen body and small, shriveled(褶皱的) wings. It  12  was able to fly. What the man did in his  13 and haste(匆忙)did no good to the butterfly. He didn’t know the  14  cocoon and the struggle  15  for the butterfly to get through the tiny  16 were the natural way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings  17  it would be ready for flight once it achieved its  18  from the cocoon.
Sometimes the  19  is exactly what we need in our life. If we are allowed to go through our life without any  20, it would not be a good thing to us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been.

解析【小题1】B 此句意为:…一个人坐在那儿花了好几个小时看着蝴蝶挣扎着试图从那个裂缝挤出来。根据选项的词义可知,只有选项B符合要求。选项A意为“建立”;选项B意为“迫使;推动”;选项C意为“形成”;选项D意为“破坏;摧毁”。故B正确。
【小题2】A 此句意为:看上去它好像已经尽力了,无法再往前迈进一步了。根据句子结构只有as far as it could(尽其所能)才符合要求。as soon as 意为“一……就……”;as long as意为“只要”;as quick as意为“尽快”。故选项A正确。
【小题3】D 因为上文提到蝴蝶破茧没有什么进展了,所以此处应该意为为:于是这个人决定帮助那只蝴蝶。选项A意为“抓住;捉拿”;选项B意为“离开”;选项C意为“带来”;故选D.
【小题4】C 选项A意为“脱下;起飞;成功”;选项B意为“组成;弥补;编造”;选项C意为“剪下”;选项D意为“捡起;接(某人)”。根据上文此句意为“他拿出一把剪刀,把蚕茧的其他部分剪破。”故选项C正确。
【小题5】B 选项A意为“分散;传开”;选项B意为“出来”;选项C意为“呆在家中;不外出”;选项D意为“飞走”。此句意为“然后蝴蝶很轻易地破茧而出。”故选项B正确。
【小题6】C 此句意为“但是它身体肿胀,翅膀很小。”很显然,刚刚破茧而出的蝴蝶的翅膀不可能很坚硬(hard),不可能很健壮(strong),也不可能很大(large)。同时下文有 “…small, shriveled(褶皱的) wings”,故C正确。
【小题7】A 根据词义辨别以及句义可知选项A为最佳答案。
【小题8】B 根据词义辨别以及句义可知选项B为最佳答案。
【小题9】D 选项A意为“消失”;选项B意为“扩大”;选项C意为“丢失”;选项D意为“缩小”。此句意为“这个人继续观察蝴蝶,他希望蝴蝶的翅膀能随时展开变大,而身体随着时间的流逝而慢慢变小,最终翅膀能够承载身体飞起来。”故选项D正确。
【小题10】D 根据辨别选项的词义,以及句义可知选项D正确。
【小题11】A 选项A意为“爬行”;选项B意为“接近;靠近”;选项C意为“跑”;选项D意为“漫步;漫游”。此句意为“事实上,这只蝴蝶一生都只能拖着肿胀的身体和既小又皱翅膀爬行。”故选项A正确。
【小题12】D 根据上文可知,此句意为:它永远也飞不起来。故选项D正确。
【小题13】B 此句意为:这个急躁而好心的人之所作所为对蝴蝶并没有好处。选项A意为“惧怕;恐惧”;选项B意为“善意;善良”;选项C意为“邪恶;罪恶”;选项D意为“信心”。故选项B正确。
【小题14】A 选项A意为“束缚的;限制的”;选项B意为“松的”;选项C意为“软的”;选项D意为“小的”。根据词义辨别及句义可知选项A正确。
【小题15】D 选项A意为“准备”;选项B意为“想要”;选项C意为“允许”;选项D意为“要求”。
【小题16】C 根据短文第一段的第一句中的a small opening(一道裂缝)可知此处应选C.
【小题17】D 根据所给选项的词义,选项A意为“即使;虽然”;选项B意为“否则;不然”;选项C意为“当……时候”;选项D意为“以便”。根据句义可知应选D.
【小题18】D 全句意为:他并不知道,束缚蝴蝶的蚕茧,穿过狭小的缝隙所需要的挣扎,都是上帝的安排。在此过程中,蝴蝶将体内的水分挤到翅膀里,以便做好起飞的准备。一旦它突破蚕茧获得自由,就能飞翔。故D正确。
【小题19】B 根据词义辨别以及句义可知,此句意为:有时候,我们所需要的就是奋斗。选项B为最佳答案。
【小题20】C 选项C意为“障碍;困难”;选项D意为“成就”。此句意为:如果我们的生活一帆风顺,这对于我们来说并不是一件好事。故选项C正确。

         Hill enrolled(注册) in a wig-making  28   in New York.Back home with what she learned, she started making wigs that she planned to   29   for $300 each.

         But many of her customers with alopecia and cancer couldn’t  30  that much, and their health insurance often didn’t  31  the cost.So Hill started giving the wigs away, eventually spending $10,000 of her own money.Last year, she and her friend Lita Warren  32  Pink Barrette, a non-profit organization that has  33   about 60 wigs to poor women.

         Hill pays  34   the donations with profits from her other products.  35   , she and her husband have also spent much of their savings keeping the organization running.

         “Seeing their self-confidence   39   after they try on their wigs,” says Hill, “brings   40   to my eyes.This is a job for me, and a most rewarding one.”
