【解析】

本文讲述去年我被家乡的重点高中录取了，因为家里的状况，我决定帮助爸爸工作养家。但在新学期开学前，班主任带着同学们筹集的钱来到我家，告诉我要一直有梦想。从那之后遇到困难时，我都会告诉自己不管生活多么艰辛，都要一直为之奋斗。

1.句意：去年，我不敢相信我被允许进入我家乡唯一的重点高中的消息。

idea主意；story故事；news消息；thought想法。根据其后的同位语从句“that I was allowed to enter the only key high school in my hometown.”可知，作者被家乡唯一的重点高中录取的消息。故选C。

2.句意：但我父亲似乎不像我那么兴奋。

nervous紧张的；excited感到兴奋的；interested感兴趣的；worried担心的。根据“He just kept smoking without saying a word”可知，他只是不停地抽烟一句话不说，并不像我一样兴奋。故选B。

3.句意：他一直在抽烟，一句话也没说。我妈妈低下头，忍不住哭了起来。

crying哭；laughing笑；saying说；shouting大叫。分析句子可知，couldn’t help doing sth翻译为“情不自禁做某事”，根据语境可知是不停地哭，故选A。

4.句意：我非常了解我的家庭。

about关于，大约；before在……之前；against反对；like像。分析句子可知，此处构成“what…like”短语，翻译为“像……样子”。故选D。

5.句意：我感到很难过，但我不能对我的父母说什么。

nothing没有东西；something某事物；anything任何事物；everything每件事。分析句意可知，此处表示“虽然因为不能上学而难过，但理解家里的状况，不能抱怨父母”的含义。故选A。

6.句意：我决定帮助我的父亲做一些工作来支持我的家庭。

support动词原形；to support动词不定式；supporting动名词；supported过去式/过去分词。分析句子可知，我决定帮助父亲做事是为了支持家庭，此处应用动词不定式作目的状语。故选B。

7.句意：令我惊讶的是，在新学期之前，事情完全改变了。

from从……；since自从；before在……之前；on在……上。分析句子可知，此处表示我已经决定不上学了，但是“在开学之前事情有了变化”。故选C。

8.句意：我的班主任来我家带了一些钱，这是我的同学们筹集的。

raised提高，筹集；spent花费；planned计划；saved节省，救。根据其前“My head teacher came to my family with some money”可知，我家没有钱让我去读书，班主任带着从同学们那里“筹集”的钱来到我家，此处表示“筹集”的含义。故选A。

9.句意：每当我遇到困难，我总是想到我的老师和同学。

dream of梦想；think of想起；hear of听说；talk of谈论。分析句意可知，每当我遇到困难时，我总会“想到”我的老师和同学。故选B。
