解析

试题分析:这篇短文讲述的是作者因为小时候的一次意外使自己的眼睛受到了伤害,而且外貌变得丑陋。作者一度心情非常低落,对自己的生活失去了信心。但是在妈妈的鼓励下,作者开始变得自信起来,也知道了如何去同情他人。
小题1:考查动及语境的理解。句意:我落到了一块玻璃上,眼睛受到了严重的伤害。stood 原形stand, 站;land 着陆;found 原形是find,发现,找到;work工作。这里是说小时候作者摔了一跤,跌到了玻璃上,故这里应该用land表示落到地上的意思。故选B。
小题2:考查介及语境的理解。句意:从那以后,我的丑陋的、无光的、灰色的眼睛就一直伴随着我。for 为了,因为;like 做介词时是像的意思;by 通过……方式,乘坐;with和,伴随着。根据句意这里是说自从摔了一跤之后,作者的眼睛就变得非常的丑陋了。故选D。
小题3:考查名及语境的理解。句意:当孩子们一起玩游戏的时候,我就是怪物的角色。games 游戏;jokes 玩笑,笑话;toys 玩具;sports运动。这里是说作者和小朋友们一起玩游戏的时候,因为作者丑陋的眼睛,他总是来扮演怪物的角色。故选A。
小题4:考查名及语境的理解。句意:然而妈妈对我说:“抬起头来,面对这个世界。”,我开始依赖妈妈的这句话。glass 玻璃;topic 主题;reply 回复;saying话,谚语。这里是作者对妈妈说的话产生了依赖,故应该选D。
小题5:考查副及语境的理解。句意:小心点,否则你会摔倒,你不看着会撞上东西的。immediately 立刻,马上;accidentally 意外的;continuously 持续的;expectedly 预期的,果然。根据文意小时候,妈妈总是会嘱咐孩子小心,别意外的摔倒,撞到东西上。故选B。
小题6:考查动及语境的理解。句意:在我十几岁的时候,我总是低头向下看,把自己的羞辱隐藏起来。这里是作者因为自己的相貌丑陋而感到自卑,所以总是低着头,把脸藏起来。show 展示;meet 遇见;behave 行为举止;hide隐藏。根据文意可知选D。
小题7:考查名及语境的理解。句意:在中学里,我甚至成了班长,但是在我的内心里仍然觉得自己像个怪物。president 班长;teacher 老师;teenager 青少年;adult成年人。这里是作者在念中学的时候,所以不可能是老师或成年人。根据常理,在念中学时,作者应该就是十几岁的青少年,故C也不对。故选A。
小题8:考查动及语境的理解。句意:在事情变得很糟糕的时候,我会对妈妈哭泣,这时,妈妈会用慈爱的眼睛看着我说,“抬起头来,面对这个世界”。write 写;add 增加;cry 哭;face面对。根据文意,当情况变得糟糕的时候,作者的心情肯定不好,会更加的自卑,故会对妈妈哭泣,故选C。
小题9:考查介及语境的理解。句意:让别人看到你内心的美丽,而不只是看到你的外貌。这里的inside 是内心,内里的意思,是相对于后面的appearance外貌而言的,虽然作者的外貌丑陋,但是内心是美的。beside 在...旁边;outside 外边,外部;inside 里面,内部;alongside在...侧面。故选C。
小题10:考查名及语境的理解。句意:妈妈的爱是照亮我的世界的阳光。根据句中made me bright,可知这里应该是sunshine,阳光。suggestion 建议;experience 经验,经历;sunshine 阳光;introduction 介绍。故选C。
小题11:考查形容语境的理解。句意:在经历了艰难的时刻后,我不仅学会了自信,而且也知道了同情他人。confident 自信;unusual 不寻常的;similar 相似的;ordinary 普通的。这里是作者在妈妈的鼓励下逐渐学会了自信,不再自卑。故选A。
小题12:考查代及语境的理解。句意:“抬起头来”这句话经常可以在我的家里听到,我把它告诉给了我的孩子们。妈妈给我的这个礼物会一直的传下去。it 它;them 他们;that 那个;those那些。这里的it 指的是妈妈对作者说的话。故选A。

Have you ever complained(抱怨)why life is so tiring? Are your studies sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and smile all the time . If you see the world with your warm heart, you will find that the whole world smiles to you.
While in school, sometimes you are tired of your lessons, but have you ever noticed the happy smile on your teacher’s face when you did a good job?
One day it is fine . Just before you want to go out, it suddenly starts to rain . Maybe you would feel very sad and start complaining about the weather . But dear friends, why don’t you sit down and listen to the free concert that the nature offers you? And with the timely rain, crops in the fields will grow better and better and farmers will have a good harvest .
Although everyone wants to succeed in what he tries to do, sometimes failure can’t be avoided . I think failure(失败) is not terrible, and the terrible thing is that we are afraid of it and give up hope. When we face failure, we must be confident in ourselves, draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish what we have decided to do. As a popular saying goes, “Failure is the mother of success.”
Attitude(态度)decides everything. With an optimistic(乐观的)attitude life is easy and pleasant. Let’s smile to whatever we meet and the whole world will smile to us.
