【1】句意：沒有胳膊去擁抱別人，沒有手去體驗觸摸。understand理解；experience經(jīng)歷，體驗；know知道，了解；prevent阻止。根據(jù)句意no hands to…touch可知，手可以讓我們體驗觸摸的感覺，故應選B。

【2】句意：不能跳舞、走路、跑步，甚至不能用雙腳站立。chance機會；interest興趣；reason原因；ability能力。根據(jù)上句話Or what about being born without legs?可知，沒有了腿我們就不能跳舞、走路、跑步，故應選D。

【6】句意：他設法找到方法來實現(xiàn)大多數(shù)能用四肢做的事情，如刷牙、在電腦上打字等。wearing穿；cutting剪，切；brushing刷；losing失去。根據(jù)空后的teeth可知，這里指“刷牙”，故選C。

【7】句意：隨著時間的流逝，Nick開始接受他自身的情形，并且實現(xiàn)更大的事情。position位置，職位；situation情形，情況，處境；result結(jié)果；advantage有利條件，優(yōu)點。根據(jù)句意可知，Nick接受自己身體的不完美，即自身的情形，故應選B。

【8】句意：到19歲的時候，Nick就開始實現(xiàn)他的夢想—通過講述自己的故事來鼓勵別人。finish完成；search搜索；support支持；realize實現(xiàn)。根據(jù)空后的his dream可知，這里指“實現(xiàn)夢想”，故應選D。

【9】句意：他四處旅行，和幾百萬人分享他的故事。telling 告訴，講述；recalling回顧，回想；writing寫；sharing分享。根據(jù)上文….encouraging others by telling his story.可知，Nick是通過講述自己的故事來鼓勵其他人，所以找了應表示“分享他的故事”，故選D。
