Perhaps the only test score that I remember is the 41. I was in high school. The test was the final for the class. It was a rather 36 test. I didn’t know how 37 I had done but I knew there were things on 38 that I didn’t know.
I remember 39 waiting for the result. When Mr. Bales 40 my paper on my desk, I was 41 . There in big 42 numbers, circled to draw attention, was my grade — 41! I 43 my paper so that others couldn’t see it. A 41 was not 44 that you wanted your classmates to see. Finally, Mr. Bales stood behind the desk and 45 the class. “The grades were not very good; 46 of you passed,” he announced. “ The highest grade in the class was a 41, so all of you failed.”
A 41. That was me. Suddenly my dismal(阴沉的) face didn’t look quite so bad. I had the highest grade. I felt a lot 47 . As soon as I got home, my mother asked me, “How did you do on your test?” “I made a 41,” I said. My mother’s 48 changed suddenly. “You failed.” “But I had the highest grade in the class!” I replied. “ I don’t 49 what everyone else had. You failed. It doesn’t matter if everyone else failed too; what matters is what you do,” my mother 50 answered.
For years, I thought that was a harsh judgment. My mother was always that 51 . It didn’t matter what the other kids did; it only mattered what I did and 52 I did it excellently.
We often don’t understand the wisdom of good parents until we ourselves stand 53 the parenting shoes. My mother’s philosophy（人生态度）has 54 me throughout life. The path of the crowd is wide but the path to pass the tests of life is 55 and there are very few people on it.

试题分析：本文叙述了作者在高中一次期末考试中竟然考了41分，自己认为考得太少了，不敢拿出来怕让别的同学看见了，当老师宣布最高分是41分时，自己感觉好一点了。但是回到家，母亲问作者考了多少分，当母亲听到41分时，她坚定地认为作者虽然考了第一名那也是不及格。
小题1:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。easy容易的； difficult困难的；exciting令人高兴的； disappointed失望的。根据The highest grade in the class was a 41, 全班最高的分数是41分，所以证明这次考试很难的，故选B。

小题3:考查代词及上下文的呼应。this这个； them它们； it它； one代词，代替同类的名词。it代替上文提到的test；“我”知道关于考试的一些事情，故选C。
小题4:考查副词及上下文的呼应。happily高兴地； anxiously焦急地； excitedly兴奋地； calmly平静地。根据常识可知作者在焦急地等待考试结果。“我”记得焦急地等着结果，故选B。

小题10:考查动词及上下文的呼应。talk谈话； declare宣布； announce宣布；address讲话。贝尔斯站在“我”的桌子后面，他给全班同学讲话，故选D。
小题11:考查代词及上下文的呼应。some一些； each每一个； none 没有人或物； most大多数。根据下文The highest grade in the class was a 41, so all of you failed.”最高分数是41分，所以没有一个人通过考试，故选C。

举一反三
However, doing that job was no easy task in itself. I offered to help, but he and the checkout lady had it under control. He asked my wife if she would mind putting his empty basket away. What must it be like, I wondered, to be so dependent on other people like that? The checkout operator came around and gave him his change and the items he needed to have to hand. She hung one bag of groceries over a handle at the back of his chair. I offered to get the other, bigger, bag and he said, “No. But you could do me a favour. Take that lot along to the entrance and give it to Angela.”
As I was told, I did that, leaving Julie with our shopping. Angela, as turned out, was collecting food for people who might otherwise go hungry! I hadn"t even noticed her before. This guy, despite the limitations that his physical condition imposed on him, had bought more than twice as much shopping as he needed – and given the bigger bag away to help other people! He didn"t let the fact that he needed help stop him from being a help. He may have been limited physically, but his heart was more than capable of overcoming all that. And it changed my idea of dependence when I realized that the help he had given was more than the help he had received.
So … what’s holding the rest of us back?
小题1: From the first paragraph, we know that______.| A．the writer was obviously a disabled person | | B．the man in a wheelchair was a shopper | | C．the writer and Julie jumped the queue | | D．only three people were shopping then |
小题2: The man put the things he bought into two piles, probably because______.| A．his shopping bags were too small to hold all the groceries | | B．he hoped to keep the balance of his wheelchair | | C．he intended to help the people in need | | D．it would be easy for him to carry |
小题3: From the passage, we can learn that Angela was probably______.| A．the disabled person’s wife | | B．the girl at the checking desk | | C．a hungry and homeless beggar | | D．a kind-hearted and helpful woman |
小题4: Which of the following can best describe the man in the wheelchair?| A．kind, energetic and determined | | B．positive, dependent and easy-going | | C．active, optimistic and open-minded | | D．helpful, generous and strong-hearted |

“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I faced disappointment. “If you can carry on, one day something good will happen. And you’ll 16 that it wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous 17 .”
Mother was right, 18 I discovered after 19 from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio, then work my way 20 sports announcer. I hitchhiked（搭便车） to Chicago and knocked on the door of 21 station—and got 22 every time. In one 23 , a kind lady told me that big stations couldn’t 24 hiring inexperienced persons. “Go out in the sticks and find a small station that’ll give you a 25 .” she said.
I thumbed home to Dixon, Illinois. While there was no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local 26 to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I 27 . The job sounded just right for me. 28 I wasn’t hired.
My disappointment must have shown. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom 29 me. Dad 30 me the car to job-hunt. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had 31 hired an announcer.
As I left his office, my 32 boiled over. I asked aloud, “How can a fellow get to be a sport announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?” I was waiting for the elevator 33 I heard MacArthur calling, “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he stood next to me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an 34 game.
On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother’s words: “if you carry on, one day something good will happen. Something wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment”. I often 35 what direction my life might have taken if I’d gotten the job at Montgomery Ward.
