B．reporterC．monitor D．teacher答案：D由空后的Igaveanhonestamountofthestudents'work可知，我是老师，故D项正确。42．A.Or B．AndC．But D．So答案：C空前指“他的书写自己都读不出来”，而空后则说“他是个聪明的学生”，前后是转折关系，要用并列连词but连接并列句，故C项正确。43．A.courage B．abilitiesC．feelings D．dream答案：B上一句提到他几乎是用成年人的理解来讨论成年人的话题，所以，他的作业反映不出的应该是他的能力，故ability(能力)符合语境，B项正确。44．A.desperate B．responsibleC．unprepared D．unsuitable答案：C上一句提到当西蒙的妈妈进入房间时，我的手掌出汗了。她亲吻我的两颊，是我意想不到的事情，也就是我完全没有做好准备。desperate“绝望的，不顾一切的”；responsible“负责任的”；unprepared“没做好准备的”；unsuitable“不合适的”。由语境可知C项正确。45．A.Becauseof B．InspiteofC．Apartfrom D．Asfor答案：A上一句提到西蒙妈妈的话让我哑口无言。因为我，西蒙才变成了一个不同的人。becauseof“因为”；inspiteof“尽管”；apartfrom“除……之外(还)”；asfor“关于，至于”。由语境可知A项正确。46．A.loved B．enviedC．pleased D．criticized答案：A由前后语境可知，西蒙对妈妈说的是喜欢(love)我而非envy(妒忌)，please(使满足)，criticize(批评)，故A项正确。47．A.gradually B．constantlyC．recently D．obviously答案：C由语境可知，此处表示第一次在他人生的前12年里，他近来在朋友家里呆了一下午。gradually“逐渐地”；constantly“经常地”；recently“近来，最近”；obviously“显而易见地”。由语境可知C项正确。48．A.self­respect B．self­doubtC．self­pity D．self­defense答案：A由前后语境可知，西蒙妈妈感激我的是我培养了孩子的自尊(self­respect)而不是self­doubt(自我怀疑)，self­pity(自怜)，self­defense(自卫)，故A项正确。49．A.imagining B．observingC．wondering D．regretting答案：C由前后语境可知，我没想到西蒙的妈妈会来，她说的话也是我意想不到的，因此，我惊呆了，接近半个小时的时间在疑惑到底发生了什么事。imagine“想象”；observe“观测”；wonder“疑惑，想知道”；regret“遗憾，后悔”。由语境可知C项正确。50．A.also B．evenC．always D．still答案：B前面西蒙的妈妈提到，我改变了西蒙，此处指“我对西蒙的改变起了这么大的作用，我甚至不知道”。even“甚至”，表示递进符合语境，故B项正确。51．A.expect B．rememberC．believe D．accept答案：B后面提到的某一天发生的事情应该是我记起来的，故remember正确。expect“期望，预料”；believe“相信”；accept“接受”，均不合语境，故B项正确。52．A.writing B．reviewingC．editing D．giving答案：D由语境可知，学生们在全班同学面前作报告。givereports“作报告”，为固定搭配，故D项正确。其他三项write“写”；review“复习”；edit“编辑”，均不合语境。53．A.quietly B．repeatedlyC．quickly D．firmly答案：A由空后的speakup(大声说出来)可知，詹妮是在轻轻地说话，故A项正确。repeatedly“重复地”；quickly“迅速地”；firmly“坚定地”，均不合语境。54．A.lucky B．lonelyC．only D．likely答案：C前一句提到，西蒙是这方面的专家，你只要让他信服就好了；也就是说，他是唯一一个你得使其信服的人，故选only，而非lucky“幸运的”，lonely“孤独的”与likely“可能的”。55．A.entrance B．middleC．front D．back答案：D前面提到，詹妮说话声音小，自然是坐在教室后面的同学听不见，故D项back符合语境。56．A.slept B．smiledC．shouted D．quarreled答案：B这就是西蒙变化的转折点。他坐得更直了，注意力更集中了，微笑多了，变得快乐了。与situpstraighter,paymoreattention，becomehappy并列的只能是smile，而非sleep(睡觉)，shout(大声喊),quarrel(吵架)，故B项正确。57．A.intended B．pretendedC．refused D．happened答案：D前面提到，我让詹妮说话大点声，因为坐在后面的同学听不见，而恰好西蒙就是在最后一排的最后一名同学。happentobe“碰巧是”，符合语境。58．A.change B．praiseC．thanks D．visits答案：B由前面的语境可知，就是无意当中的一句表扬的话竟然改变了一个孩子。也就是说，那天最需要表扬的孩子就是坐在最后排的那个。故B项正确。59．A.difficult B．painfulC．valuable D．enjoyable答案：C前面那个故事使我学到了我多年教学生涯的一个很有价值的经验教训。difficult“困难的”；painful“痛苦的”；valuable“有价值的”；enjoyable“令人愉快的”。由语境可知，这件事情让我受益颇多，自然是有价值的，故C项正确。60．A.early B．slowlyC．frequently
