解析

主旨大意:本文通过一只蝴蝶遇到困难时少挣扎了一点,而是通过小男孩的帮助从茧里出来的故事。告诉我们一个道理:当我们遇到问题或困难时,多挣扎一下,就能起飞。
小题1:A  根据上下文意思,句意:那小男孩发现茧子上有一个小洞。以及第一段的最后一行“through that little hole”。
小题1:D  代词的用法。句意:让它的身体通过那个小洞。在这里要修饰“body”,用形容词性物主代词。
小题1:A  句意:它停止了,因此小男孩决定帮助它。根据后一句:他拿出剪刀剪开洞。故选A。
小题1:D 句意:小男孩决定帮助它,他认为蝴蝶会感激他。故选D。
小题1:B 因为一开始那洞太小,蝴蝶才半天没爬出来,所以小男孩用剪刀把洞剪大来。
小题1:C 句意:蝴蝶出来了,它看起来有点不同。“It had a weak body and small, thin”都是用眼睛看出来的。故选C。
小题1:A   根据后一句“a weak body and thin wings”,前后照应。故选A。
小题1:C  句意:虽然小男孩不理解为何会这样,但他还是用好心行动。故选C。
小题1:B   work of中“of”是介词,介词后加动名词。故选B。
小题1:A 根据上下文意思:努力地离开茧子让蝴蝶身体的液体进入他的翅膀。它帮助蝴蝶准备飞行。be ready to “准备”,故选A。
小题1:D 句意:有的时候奋斗/挣扎是我们生活中必须的。some time 表示"一些时间"或“一段时间”,可以用作名词或副词短语。sometimes用作副词,表示“有的时候”,可以把它放在句首,句尾或句中。故选D。
小题1:C 根据句意:我们将没有原本有的强大,我们将永远不会飞。上下文:如果我们挣扎了,我们就会有原本的能力,没有挣扎,反倒落后了。故选C。
小题1:D 句意:疼痛和苦难是所有窗户的钥匙,有时,甚至代表着成长。没有它,生活没有路。repeat“重复”, recommend“介绍,推荐”, require“要求”, represent“象征,代表”。
小题1:B 根据下一行“problem or difficulty”,故选B。
小题1:D 句意:下次你面对一个难题或困难时,记得那只蝴蝶。根据意思,故选D。

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station(加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple(夫妇)who were also paying for gas.
I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car, I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays wonderful.
Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.
"Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and told them my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck (小货车) to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
"Thank you" - two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.
