A Love Note to My Mom
When I was a little girl, I would often accompany you as you modeled (T台展示) for fashion photographers. It was years later that I finally understood what role modeling 36 in your life. Little did I know you were 37 every penny you earned to go to 38 school.
I cannot thank you enough for 39 you told me one autumn afternoon when I was nine. After finishing my homework, I wandered into the dining room where you were buried 40 piles of law books. I was 41 . Why were you doing what I do—memorizing textbooks and studying for 42 ? When you said you were in law school, I was more puzzled. I didn’t know Moms 43 be lawyers too. You smiled and said, “In life, you can do anything you want to do.”
As young as I was, that statement kept 44 in my ears. I watched as you faced the 45 of completing your studies, starting companies with Dad, while still being a 46 and a Mom of five kids. I was exhausted just watching you 47 . With your words of wisdom in my 48 mind, I suddenly felt unlimited freedom to dream. My whole world 49 . I set out to live my life filled with 50 , seeing endless possibilities for personal and professional achievements.
Your words became my motto. I 51 found myself in the unique position of being either the first (woman doctor in Maryland Rotary) 52 one of the few women (chief medical reporters) in my field. I gained strength every time I said, “Yes, I’ll try that.”
Encouraged by your 53 , I have forged ahead(毅然前行) with my life’s journey, less afraid to make mistakes, and 54 meeting each challenge. You did it, and now I’m 55 it. Sorry, got to run. So much to do, so many dreams to live.

解析
小题1:B 注意搭配。一般高考英语完形填空会把原来的短语分开，通过一些句式来考查。
小题2:A 注意动宾意义上的结合，后面是penny 与金钱有关，所以选 save。
小题3:C 瞻前顾后，联系上下文，选项（20）的后面有law books 题（23）后有lawyers 作为提示，因此填 law 为正确答案。
小题4:A 此题考查语法知识，属于功能性考查。tell sb. something，句子缺少宾语，所以填what这个代词。考查语法功能在高考英语完形填空试题中所占比例很轻。
小题5:D 此题考查语法知识，属于功能性考查。埋头读书，很形象。所以选择under。
小题6:C 自己不理解，为什么妈妈像自己的孩子一样去记忆繁琐的知识。考查过去分词化形容词。
小题7:B for 介词 表目的 学习的目的就是为了考试，所以选tests，符合题意。
小题8:D could 表示推断，“有可能”之意。属于语法功能考查。
小题9:A 选项后面的in my ears 是提示性的短语，在耳边回荡，选ringing 发出声响之意，非常恰当。
小题10:C 后面讲到与爸爸一起创办公司，实属不易，所以面临诸多困难与挑战。
小题11:D still 是提示词，后面要填的肯定是前面所出现的，身为五个孩子的母亲，还有本身的工作要做。母亲原来做的就是模特，所以填model。
小题12:B 母亲什么事情都身体力行，所以选in action. in charge是管理 负责的意思，没有协作，共同之意。
小题13:C 受到妈妈的勤奋好学的思想的积极影响，作者的脑海中也充满了一种激情浩荡，蓬勃向上的朝气，所以选youthful，意思是有朝气的。本文从前至后洋溢着一种进取上进的思想，所以解题时要全文把握，抓住主流。
小题14:D 高考英语完形填空一般都会有一到两题考查词组。除了掌握词组的本意以外，还要了解它的引申义，比如turn up 本意是把音量开大，引申义是出现的意思。想掌握一个词组，要做到借助句子语境去理解，这样记忆才能牢固。open up 打开，展现 的意思，就是作者的整个世界就像一扇门一样的打开了，从此开始了自己的追梦之旅，取得成就无数。本题解题时要注意前后搭配及其全文整体思想。
小题15:A 后面的achievements 是个提示词，没有hope就没有achievements，所以选hope，指作者无论做什么事情都满怀希望，持有梦想。准确找到提示词是决定答案的关键。
小题16:A 考查副词词义。选项前面的Your words became my motto. 是含有提示性的一句。作者经常把妈妈的富有进取的话语当作自己做事的座右铭，时刻激励着自己。
小题17:C 瞻前顾后。前后是并列关系，表选择。
小题18:B 表白 之意，考查名词词义，容易区分，较简单。
小题19:D 考查副词词义。这里选eagerly， 表现了作者迫不及待的心情，时刻准备着去迎接每一个挑战。
小题20:A you did it 是提示语，did 是做事的意思，所以后面选doing 是非常合理的。找对提示用语或提示词是作出正确判断的关键。 |
举一反三
People always say that if God closed a door in front of you, there must be a window opened for you. Yes, people always say that, but 36 is the window for me?
I am not disappointed, just a little worried 37 as my roommate said, “ Why are you angry with yourself once you 38 to do anything?” I have no idea. I just can’t 39 me if I can’t understand some easy things. Currently, I just feel__ 40 _with myself because I couldn’t finish the assignment on the lab, and what was 41 worse was that actually I did not understand what the 42 was! Fiona asked me why I didn’t 43 for help. The problem is that if I have to ask some silly questions, I will feel 44 .
Before I came here I was confident. But I have totally lost it. Sometimes I can’t__ 45 find the right words; sometimes I am too shy to 46 others. I have to admit that I am 47 .
The wisest people are always 48 who can take advantage of others’ wisdom. But I was so stupid as to close myself and 49 a lot of time soaking inside the workbook, 50 made me more confused. Why can’t I follow the sentence? I am 51 to get help the next time I have any questions. I can 52 I am not smart, but I shouldn’t hide it. I must 53 it as soon as possible. 54 I will have to waste much more time on it—just like tonight.
Difficulties always go with me. Go 55 ! I can make it.

The teacher told me to go stand where the boy was standing and told him to come stand where I had been. We changed 34 and now she asked me what the color of the object was. I 35 answer, “White.” It was an object with two 36 colored sides, and from his side it was white. 37 from my side was it black.
My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: You must 38 in the other person’s shoes and look at the 39 through their eyes in order to 40 understand their view.

A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people"s rule. They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar( 奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way.
Now the very same thing is true to literature. And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail -- that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.
小题1:A friend of the writer"s drew the horses ____. | A．very well | | B．in the way of western rule | | C．in the way of his own rule | | D．all of the above |
小题2:The writer was surprised because ____. | A．the artist began to draw at the head of the horse | | B．the artist began to draw at the tail of the horse | | C．the artist made his own rule | | D．the artist did not follow other people"s rule |
小题3:You are not yet experienced because ____. | A．you don"t know where to begin | | B．you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail | | C．you always asked question | | D．you do not trust to your own powers |
小题4:when you become more experienced you will ____. | A．never ask question | | B．often begin at the tail | | C．should write the end of the story | | D．should think of the beginning |
小题5:The topic of the passage is | A．How to draw a horse | | B．How to write a story | | C．How to make your own rules | | D．Trust to your own powers |

My life as a little person is filled with stories. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents．It has taken many years of 36 my confidence to be able to do that．
I didn’t 37 how short I was until I started school．As time went on，I just tried to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be 38 my whole life．I was determined to make my 39 an advantage rather than a disadvantage．My friends became increasingly 40 . They’d help me up the bus steps．If people were cruel，they would take them aside and 41 them．
42 I lacked in height，I 43 in personality my ability to laugh，even at myself．For example，one time I was 44 the washing machine at my parents’ house to grab the wet clothes．I fell 45 in and yelled for Mother，who was sitting nearby reading the paper．Watching feet 46 everywhere，she laughed and said，“I should leave you in there.” I 47 her．
I’m 47 now，and the 48 have not reduced as I’ve grown older．People ask my friends if I live in a dollhouse．They look 49 when they see me get out of my car on the driver’s side．During those times，I try to keep a good 50 . When people are rude，I 51 myself，“Look what else I have --a great family，nice friends.”
And it’s the children’s questions that make my life 52 ．“Why are you so short? How old are you? Are you a mommy?” When I talk with children，they are left 53 that their questions have been answered．My hope is that in taking time with them，I will 54 them to accept their peers，whatever size and shape they come in， 55 treat them with respect．

Inspiration
“Mama, when I grow up, I’m going to be one of those!” I said this after seeing the Capital Dancing Company perform when I was three. It was the first time that my __36__ took on a vivid form and acted as something important to start my training. As I grew older and was __37__ to more, my interests in the world of dance __38__ varied but that little girl’s dream of someday becoming a __39__ in the company never left me. In the summer of 2005 when I was 18, I received the phone call which made that dream a __40__; I became a member of the company __41__ back to 1925.
As I look back on that day now, it surely __42__ any sense of reality. I believe I stayed in a state of pleasant disbelief __43__ I was halfway through rehearsals (排练) on my first day. I never actually __44__ to get the job. After being offered the position, I was completely __45__. I remember shaking with excitement.
Though I was absolutely thrilled with the change, it did not come without its fair share of __46__. Through the strict rehearsal period of dancing six days a week, I found it vital to __47__ up the material fast with every last bit of concentration. It is that extreme __48__ to detail (细节) and stress on practice that set us __49__. To then follow those high-energy rehearsals __50__ a busy show schedule of up to five performances a day, I discovered a new __51__ of the words “hard work.” What I thought were my physical __52__ were pushed much further than I thought __53__. I learned to make each performance better than the last.
Today, when I look at the unbelievable company that I have the great __54__ of being a part of, not only as a member, but as a dance captain, I see a __55__ that has inspired not only generations of little girls but a splendid company that continues to develop and grow-and inspires people every day to follow their dreams.
