【9】given

【10】totally

【解析】作者認為自己很擅長與孩子們打交道，所以應(yīng)聘一份教孩子的工作。通過幾個月下來的工作，作者學會和體悟到很多東西。

【1】考查動名詞�？崭袂懊媸墙樵~in，后接動詞應(yīng)用動名詞形式，故填dealing。

【2】考查名詞單復(fù)數(shù)。此處為make friends with managers，managers用了復(fù)數(shù)，故交朋友也要用復(fù)數(shù)，填friends。

【3】考查冠詞。此處為固定短語：a couple of“幾個”。

【4】考查比較級。此處可根據(jù)句中的than確定用比較級，意為“更好”，故填better。

【5】考查時態(tài)。found后接賓語從句，從句缺少謂語，故空格處填謂語動詞，文章用一般過去時描述的，故此處填made。

【6】考查連詞。句意：沒過多久我就學會了如何和老板們建立起尊重的關(guān)系，此處意為“沒過多久就……”，用before，也是固定句型：It was/will be+一段時間+before…。

【7】考查非謂語動詞。此處可根據(jù)前面的to develop，推知此處也用動詞不定式，故填to use。

【8】考查代詞。此處為固定句型it seems that……“看起來……”。

【9】考查非謂語動詞。此處填非謂語，邏輯主語是money，和give之間是被動關(guān)系，且有提示詞不要，故填過去分詞given。

【10】考查副詞。此處為副詞修飾形容詞different，故填totally。
