Question

The teacher stood before his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. ‘‘I know how    you have worked to prepare for this test:' he said. "And because I know you can do it well, I am willing to offer a 'B' to those who     not to take the test."

Many students thanked the teacher and left. The teacher looked at the remaining（剩下的）students and said, "Does anyone else want to get a 'B'? This is your last chance." Two      students decided to go.

Seven students remained. The teacher then handed out the papers. There were only three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have just got an         in this class. Keep believing in         ．

I never had a teacher like that, but I think it is a test that any teacher could give. Students who are not          in what they have learned are 'B' students at best.

The same is      in our daily life. The 'A' students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have        both successes and failures. They have learned life's lessons, not only from normal education,     from events in their lives. In the end, they have become           people. You see, one should always believe in himself.

【解析】

试题分析：短文大意：本文通过讲述一位老师测试学生的自信心的故事，告诉我们自信是前进的动力，我们都应该相信自己。

1.考查副词及语境理解。句意：我知道你为了准备这次考试是多么努力。Hardly几乎不；terribly 非常糟糕地；luckily幸运地；hard努力地。根据下文中And because I know you can do it well,可推知选D。

2.考查动词及语境理解。句意：我愿意给那些宁愿不参加考试者打一个“B”。 dislike不喜欢；rather 颇; 宁愿；prefer更喜欢，宁愿；start开始。 “prefer not to do sth.”宁愿不做某事，是一个固定词组。因此选C。

3.考查形容词及语境理解。句意：又有两学生决定去。 Another另一；more更多的; (many)的比较级; 附加的，额外的；others其他的，别人； many许多。所填词跟在基数词two之后，所以选B。

4.考查冠词及语境理解。句意：在这节课上你已经得到了一个“A. ”。在A、B、C、D四个字母前可用不定冠词an的只有A，所以选D。

5.考查反身代词及语境理解。句意：坚持相信你自己。Himself他自己；yourself 你自己； themselves 他们自己；ourselves我们自己。根据上句Congratulations! You have just got an in this class 可推知该选B。

6.考查形容词及语境理解。句意：不自信的学生最好也就能得个“B”。 confident自信的；lucky 幸运的；modest谦虚的，谦逊的; 适度的；easy容易的。根据句意：这些想得B的学生没有自信。故选A。

7.考查形容词及语境理解。句意：在我们的日常生活中同样是真的。Unusual不寻常的；impossible 不可能的； true真实的；good好的。通过这个小故事，引申出生活的哲理。所以选C。

8.考查动词短语及语境理解。句意：因为他们从成功和失败中学习。 broken off折断；learned from 学习； dreamed of梦想； cared for关注。根据句意可知该选B。

9.考查连词及语境理解。句意：他们已经学会生活，不仅从师范教育，而且从他们的生活中的事件。And和；or或者；but但是；also也。Not only···but （also）是一个固定搭配。所以选C。

10.考查形容词及语境理解。句意：最后，他们已成为更好的人。Ruder更粗鲁；braver更勇敢；worse更糟；better更好。通过这一课他们会变得更好。所以选D。

考点：故事类短文。
