Answer 1

1. B A项意思是"有帮助的，乐于助人的"。作者当时年龄小，不会有这样的认识”B项意思是"棒的，精彩的"，小孩对新东西会充满好奇和喜爱，故可选。C项意思ii"令人激动的，令人兴奋的"，D项意思"细心的"，均非英语的特征。

2. C通过下文可知是开始学习英语。

3. B通过下文所苦恼的事便知英语要比作者起初预料的困难。

4. A them指代上句的单词、短语等，且下半句也出现了them。故只能选A.

5. D因没有比较的意思和对象，故可排除B和C。本段最后说作者感到烦恼和对英语失去了兴趣，说明第一次没考好。

6. C A项意思是"一个接一个地"_;B项指三者及三者以上的"彼此"；C项意思是"一点点地，逐渐地"；D 项指两者间的"彼此"。故C项最合适。

7. A A项泛指"一切"，与not连用表部分否定。文中意思是"我懂得了兴趣并不能代表全部，我还应该学会一些方法"。其他选项都不能构成部分否定。

8. B此处考查状语从句的引导词。

when"当……时"，强调动作发生的某一时刻；as"当……时，随着"； while"当……时"，多与延续性动词连用，而go为非延续性动词，故不选；for表原因，意思是"因为"，这里不合适。文中意思是，"随着日子流失,我逐渐……"，故选 B.

9. C此处考查it作动词不定式的形式主语，故可排除B和D项。同某人说话应加介词with或to ,即应为"talk with/to sb. " ，A项后缺介词，故错。

10. A此处意思是"起初我感到有点紧张，但是我很快发觉与她谈话令人兴奋……"。

A项可修饰形容词，表程度，意思是"一点儿"；B项表否定，意思是"几乎没有"，常作代词或修饰不可数名词;C和D项只能作代词或修饰名词复数，不修饰形容词表程度。
