【解析】考查故事類文章。兩年前，Jo在巴布亞新幾內亞擔任教師。學校里沒有電、水和課本。當她知道學生們渴望學化學時，她盡力每周給他們演示化學實驗。這兒的生活很苦，人們沒有什么野心。Jo忙于教學，幾乎沒有時間參加社會活動，但她經(jīng)常參加他們的家庭聚會，她覺得與他們一天呆在一起是一種榮幸。

【1】were dying

考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)。句意：兩年前，Jo在巴布亞新幾內亞擔任教師。學校里沒有電、水和課本。當她知道學生們渴望學化學的時候, 她盡力每周給他們演示化學實驗。be dying to do…為固定搭配，意為“迫切想要做…..，渴望做….”分析時間狀語“Two years ago”可知，要用一般過去時，故填were dying 。

【2】them

考查人稱代詞的格。根據(jù)文章可知，they在本句中用動詞show的賓語，故要用賓格them。

【3】to

考查固定搭配。be relevant to…為固定搭配，意為“與……相關”。故填介詞to.

【4】personal

考查形容詞作定語。分析本句可知，本句的名詞person在此作ambition（抱負，追求）的定語，作定語故要用形容詞，而person是名詞，故用其形容詞personal作定語。句意：事實上他們沒有個人的野心。

【5】to adjust

考查固定句式。句意：當?shù)厝诉^著艱苦的生活。他們的小屋太暗了，需要一段時間才能適應（黑暗）。It takes time to do sth，為固定搭配，意為“花費時間做某事”，故本句填to adjust。

【6】that

考查定語從句。句意; 唯一能看見的財產(chǎn)是一把掃帚，幾塊錫盤子和杯子，還有幾個罐子。分析本The only possessions__6___could be seen were one broom,….句可知，the possession為先行詞在從句中作主語，但先行詞被only修飾，指物時要用that，故本題填 that。
