I work as a volunteer（志愿者）for an organization that helps the poor in Haiti. Recently I took my son Barrett there for a week, hoping to 36 him. Before setting out, I told Barrett this trip would be tiring and 37. For the first two days, he said almost nothing. I worried the trip was too 38 for a 17-year-old. Then, on Day three, as we were 39 over high rocky mountains, he turned to me and grinned（咧嘴笑）, “Pretty hard. ” After that there was no turning back. A five-year-old girl, wearing a dress several sizes 40 large and broken shoes, followed Barrett around, mesmerized （着迷）. He couldn’t stop 41 . Later he said 42. “I wish I could speak French.” I was 43－this from a boy who hated and 44 French classes throughout school. Usually silent, he 45 Gaby, our host, and kept asking questions about the country and its people. He blossomed（活泼起来）. 46 , the moment that really took 47 breath away occurred in a village deep in the mountains. I was 48 a woman villager for an article. 135 centimeters tall, she was small in figure but strong in 49 . Through determination, she had learned to read and write, and 50 to become part of the leadership of the 51 . Learning her story, Barrett was as 52 as I by this tiny woman’s achievements. His eyes were wet and there was a 53 of love and respect on his face. He had finally understood the importance of my work. When leaving for home, Barrett even offered to stay 54 as a volunteer. My insides suddenly felt struck. This 55 achieved all I’d expected. Soon he will celebrate his 18th birthday. He’ll be a man.

小题1:D
小题1:D.本题需要从全文角度才能更好的做出判断.首先,作者要带孩子去的地方是偏僻穷困的地方,再从Barrett的表现和最后一段作者认为完全达到了此行的目的----促进了孩子的成长.所以应该是教育孩子.
小题2:A.rough:艰苦的, 与tiring并列,修饰 trip,从上下文中能看出这个意思
小题3:B.too much(for someone): (对于某人而言)很不合适, 做不了, 受不了.
小题4:C. 上文已经说明了这次旅行会很幸苦, 已经到了第三天, 不可能再run了; B也不合适, 因为这时Barrett回头笑着说很幸苦, 所以应该是在进行中, 不是向下看的时候. 而move和climb相比,后者更强调费尽,努力地;所以climbing更符合此时的情景.
小题5:A. too在这里是程度副词, 这件衣服穿在小姑娘身上太大了.
小题6:D. 从上下文能看出Barrett看到这个小姑娘在他身边很着迷的样子, 不禁笑了, 想与她交流. 如果是其他选项, 下文中就应该出现喊叫或者开玩笑的具体内容才符合文章的逻辑,所以其他选项不合适.
小题7:B.一方面是上文中体现他想与小姑娘交流, 还有从本段最后可以看出Barrett很讨厌学习法语,可以看出应该是遗憾的说: 我希望我会说法语.
小题8:D.从下文hated…throughout school可看出Barrett变化之大,所以作者这时的心情应该是惊讶.
小题9:C. hated是信息词，and表示并列或者递进, 所以A, B 都不对. Call off指取消,和时间状语throughout school不搭配.
小题10:A. 从本句kept asking…和下句的he blossomed…可知应该选A. befriend对待…如朋友,协助, 照顾; disregard不理, 忽视; avoid避免; recognize认出.
小题11:D. 文章到这里进入本文的最高潮: 真正让作者很吃惊 (take one’s breath away) 的发生在深山中的一个小村子. 所以应该是转折.
小题12:B. 在倒数第二段作者专门交待了Barrett对此事的感受 (Barrett was as…as I), 所以这里只是讲”我”的感受.
小题13:B. 其他选项的含义放在这里都不合适, 只能是为一篇文章而采访她.
小题14:C从下一句中的though determination, 可以知道the woman villager意志坚强strong in mind.
小题15:B. struggle: to try extremely hard to achieve something, even though it is very difficult. 所以符合上文的strong in mind/through determination.
小题16:A.此段的第一句话交待了事件发生的地点是in village.
小题17:D. touched: 感动.
小题18: A. combination: 结合, 混合; composition: (某物的) 组成物质或者成分, (人工的) 合成物; connection: 连接.
小题19:B. stay behind: to remain in a place rather than leave留下来.
小题20:D. 首尾呼应从第一段的句子：told Barrett this trip would be tiring and 37.可知填trip。
