【解析】

试题分析：母爱是伟大的。它深藏在母亲的内心--不会轻易表露出来--和表现在母亲为孩子所作出的牺牲中--它给母亲自己却带来了疤痕。文章中的这个小男孩后来认识到了这一点。

1.B 前后照应逻辑推理词义比较 小男孩邀请妈妈去参加学校的第一次家长会。从后文不难看出孩不想要他妈妈去，因为他妈妈脸上有疤痕，可他妈妈却愿意去，这事使得小男孩不快乐(enjoyment)，不激动(excitement)，不吃惊(surprise)，而是很失望(disappointment)，因为这样会让他尴尬，让他蒙羞。

2.A 语法规则 此句考查过去将来时态(would)。

3.B 常识运用前后照应词义比较 小男孩因为他妈妈的外表--脸上有块疤痕--而感到羞愧(ashamed)，而不是恶心(sick)，害怕(afraid)，疲惫(tired)。后文的the little boy was still embarrassed (尴尬) and hid himself from everyone有所暗示。

4.C 词义辨析常识运用逻辑推理 妈妈的整个右脸上是一块明显的疤痕。疤痕在脸上不是包住(include)脸面，不是通过(pass)脸面，也不是遮蔽(shade)脸面，而是直接覆盖/铺在脸面上。include包住, 关住，包含, 包括；pass经过，通过；cover覆盖，铺，往往是物体与物体之间直接接触；shade遮蔽，使变暗，往往强调与物体之间有一定的空隙，使光变暗而形成遮蔽。

5.A 前后照应逻辑推理常识运用 小男孩很在乎(care about)，也想过(think about)，但没有听人说过(hear about)，从来就不愿谈论(talk about)妈妈为什么又怎么得上的疤痕。

6.A 词义比较逻辑推理 家长会上，妈妈的自然的美貌和亲切的举动给到会的人留下了深刻的印象(impress)。impress使得深刻印象，打动；surprise使惊奇/惊讶；excite使兴奋, 使激动；comfort安慰, 使舒适。

7.A 逻辑推理词义比较 但小男孩仍然感到尴尬难堪，而把自己藏(hide)起来，以免被大家看见。hide隐藏，掩饰，强调不被他人看见、发现；protect保护，强调不被他人伤害；separate分开, 隔离，使之不聚在一起；escape逃避, 避免，强调不被他人逮住而免去责任。

8.C 词义比较逻辑推理常识运用 他真的躲避了起来，却听到(hear)了妈妈和老师之间的一段对话。注意within(在……的范围内, 不超出……的范围)的意义。hear是先决起始动作，先有了hear，而后才会有understand(明白，了解)、learn(获悉)和remind(提醒，使想起)。

9.A 常识运用逻辑推理词义比较 老师询问的是妈妈脸上的疤痕，就肯定是小心谨慎地(carefully)，而决不是、也用不着严肃认真地(seriously)，紧张不安(nervously)，忧虑不安地(anxiously)。

10.D 句法结构 此题考查too…to do sth.的结构。

11.A 逻辑推理固定搭配 因为火控制不住(out of control)，所以大家就都不敢闯进去救人。out of control不受控制，失去了控制；under control被控制住；in control在控制之下；over不与control搭配。

12.C 词义比较逻辑推理 妈妈被坠落的木头撞得失去了知觉(senseless)。helpless无助的, 无能的, 没用的；hopeless没有希望的, 绝望的, 不可救药；senseless不省人事的, 无感觉的；useless无用的, 无效的, 无益的。

13.B 词义比较逻辑推理 这个疤痕很丑(ugly)，很严重(serious)，很恐怖(frightening)，这都没有关系，问题是它会持久(lasting)而再也抹不去。 

14.D 词义比较逻辑推理常识运用 可即便是这样，且直到今天，我忘不了(forget)，我也考虑(consider)了，我也认可(recognize)了，但我从来没有后悔(regret)过我所做的一切。

15.B 词义辨析逻辑推理 小男孩把妈妈楼在怀里，他感到了妈妈为他作出的牺牲的重大意义(sense)。honor尊敬，敬意，荣誉，光荣；sense意义，意味，意思；happiness幸福，快乐；pride自豪，骄傲。
