Question

The teacher stood before his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. “I know you have all worked hard to get   【小题1】 for this test.” He said. “And because I know you can do it well, I would like to offer a B to anyone who will choose not to take the test.” Many students jumped   【小题2】 to thank the teacher and left the classroom. The teacher looked at the students left in the classroom and said, “Does anyone else want to get a B? This is your last   【小题3】 .”Two more students decided to go out.
Only seven students stayed behind in the classroom. The teacher then   【小题4】 out the papers. There were three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have just got an A in this class. Keep 【小题5】 in yourself.
I never had a teacher  【小题6】  that, but I think it is a test that any teacher can and should give. Students who don’t believe in what they have learned are B students at most.
The same is true in our real life. The A students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have learned from both success and failure. They have learned life’s lesson, not only from school education  【小题7】 also from things happening in their lives. So they have become better people.
Scientists say that by the age of eight, 80% of what we believe about ourselves has already been formed. You are a big kid now, and you realize that you have some limits(局限). However, there is    【小题8】 you can’t do if you believe in yourself and keep going.

【小题1】根据前文you have all worked hard 描述，可知此处指的是，为考试做好了准备。短语get ready for为……做准备，故填形容词ready，准备好的。
【小题2】联系前一句描述，可知许多学生高兴的跳起来，故填副词up/happily ，向上/高兴地。
【小题3】结合语境可知老师说的是，这是你们最后的……。结合语境可知填单数名词chance，机会/opportunity，机会/choice，选择。
【小题4】句意：然后老师发下了试卷。结合语境可知本句描述的是过去发生的动作，故用一般过去时态。故填过去式动词handed/gave ，分发/给。
【小题5】联系下文描述，可知老师此举的目的是要学生学会相信自己。可知老师说的是，继续相信你们自己。keep doing sth继续做某事，故填动名词believing，相信。
