【解析】

試題分析：Steve是個學(xué)習(xí)落后的學(xué)生，每次考試都不及格，他天天沉浸在自己的想象里。直到一天漂亮的女老師Miss White 對他表現(xiàn)的關(guān)注，徹底使他改變了。故事給我們的啟示是：人人都需要關(guān)注，一句善意的話，一個鼓勵的眼神甚至都會改變一個人。

1.B介詞短語辨析。A. 為了紀(jì)念；B．盡管；  C．除…之外； D．萬一。根據(jù)上文Surprisingly, he could read, yet,可以推斷他的閱讀能力很差，由此可知B為正確選項。意思：然而令人奇怪的是，盡管他的閱讀能力差，他還是能閱讀。

2.C介詞辨析。A.到 ；B．在…前 ；C．到…才；D．在…上。上文講他一直不被人注意，而下文內(nèi)容則是講述他被Miss White的關(guān)注，所以此處應(yīng)該用until，句意：他一直不被人注意直到懷特小姐的出現(xiàn)。

3.B形容詞辨析。A .富裕的；B．年輕的；C．新鮮的；D．簡單的。根據(jù)上文Steve, a twelve¬-year¬-old boy可以判斷B選項正確。句意：在他年幼的生命中第一次他的眼睛從老師身上移不開了。

4.A副詞辨析。A.仍然 ；B．甚至； C．也 ；D．永遠(yuǎn)。根據(jù)上文Steve had been failing since the first grade可知這次是和以前一樣不及格，所以用“仍然”，答案選A。

5.D動詞辨析。A. 觀察；B．改錯； C．選擇 ；D．測試。由下文Steve hurried through his tests,可知這是一次考試，測驗孩子們的基本技能，所以D選項正確。

6.C動詞辨析。A. 斗爭；  B．同意 ； C．繼續(xù)； D．宣告。根據(jù)語境判斷此處用continue，表示Steve一天中持續(xù)的恍惚狀態(tài)。答案選C。

7.B形容詞辨析。A. 高興的；B．不耐煩的；C．熱心的 ；D．害羞的。考試時候?qū)W生走神，老師會提醒，根據(jù)當(dāng)時情形和老師說的話“Pay attention！”判斷，最佳選項為B。

8.C動詞辨析。A. 決定；B．經(jīng)營； C．轉(zhuǎn)身； D．忘記。從情理可知聽到喊他的名字，Steve應(yīng)該是轉(zhuǎn)身去看老師，所以C選項正確。

9.A動詞短語辨析。A.仔細(xì)檢查，查閱；B．壓過；C．翻轉(zhuǎn)；D．移交。老師下文說的是考試結(jié)果，所以此時老師喚回Steve的注意后開始去翻閱考試成績，故A選項正確。

10.A介詞短語辨析。A.除。。外；B．因為，由于；C．關(guān)于；至于；D．多達(dá)。從老師說的話You all did pretty well和下文The smartest boy in the seventh grade is failing my class！判斷可知除了一個學(xué)生外其余所有的學(xué)生都通過了考試，所以A選項正確。

11.C名詞辨析。A.愿望；B．記錄； C．心臟； D．背部。從語境可知老師因為一個學(xué)生沒及格而表示難過心痛，所以判斷C選項正確。

12.B名詞辨析。A.疼痛；  B．凝視 ；C．感覺； D．對照。從情理判斷當(dāng)老師說這話的時候目光應(yīng)該是盯著Steve的，故B項正確。句意：老師猶豫著說道，尖銳的目光能夠把Steve釘?shù)阶�位上�?/p>

13.A情態(tài)動詞辨析。A.不（表意愿或?qū)�來）；B．不能；C．一定不要；D．不應(yīng)該。根據(jù)上下文推測Steve是不愿意做作業(yè)，所以A選項正確。

14.D形容詞辨析。A.困窘的 ；B．沮喪的 ；C．批準(zhǔn)的； D．深思的，沉思的。根據(jù)下文Steve的轉(zhuǎn)變可知在他知道了老師關(guān)心，在意他之后，他的內(nèi)心和態(tài)度發(fā)生了轉(zhuǎn)變， D選項正確。

15.D名詞辨析。A. 調(diào)查 ； B演講； C．報告； D．測試。根據(jù)下文出現(xiàn)的__49__ his first test!可以判斷老師進(jìn)行了測試，所以D選項正確。

16.B動詞短語辨析。A. 放棄； B．上交 ； C．關(guān)��； D．穿過。根據(jù)下文Miss White took his paper.可知Steve第一個交了試卷，所以B選項正確。

17.C名詞辨析。A. 尊敬；B．好奇； C驚訝；D．恐懼。由故事內(nèi)容可知Steve從來都是考試不及格，這次第一個交了試卷，老師對此應(yīng)該感覺驚訝，所以C為正確選項。

18.B名詞辨析。A. 勝利； B．震動，震驚； C．悲傷；D.信心。根據(jù)故事的敘述可知Steve從來考試不及格，這次他不僅第一個交上試卷，而且根據(jù)下文可知Steve考試及格了，由此可以推斷當(dāng)時老師是感到震驚，所以B選項正確。

19.D動詞辨析。A. 逃跑； B．帶走 ； C．錯過 ；D．通過。通過老師滿意的表情her face broke into a bright smile.可以推斷Steve考試及格了，通過了考試。所以D選項正確。

20.A不定代詞辨析。A. 沒有什么 B．某事  C．任何事 D．每件事。從文章內(nèi)容可知當(dāng)Steve知道老師在意他的時候，他充滿了喜悅，而且考試也及格了，由此推斷從那以后Steve徹底變了，不像以前了，所以A選項正確。
