【语篇概述】作者出生于贫穷的乡村, 但是他通过自己的努力, 实现了梦想。

他的经历给家乡的孩子们树立了榜样, 说明知识会改变命运。

1. 【解析】lived。

考查动词时态。

根据上文as a child可知, 此处指过去, 故用一般过去时。

2. 【解析】However。

考查副词。

上句讲述了作者小时候艰苦的生活, 后句又说起童年中最坏的记忆, 前后是一种转折关系, 表示前面提到的还不是最差的。

故填However。

3. 【解析】was feeling。

考查动词时态。

根据时间状语all the time判断用进行时态, 而文章讲述的是过去的事情, 所以用过去进行时。

故填was feeling。

4. 【解析】that。

考查结果状语从句。

句意: 有时我太饿了, 以至于将干红薯片当成美味的零食。

根据句意可知此处是结果状语从句, so. . . that. . . 为固定结构。

故填that。

5. 【解析】to fill。

考查非谓语动词。

句子中不缺谓语, 故填非谓语动词。

enough后接不定式表结果。

6. 【解析】best。

考查固定搭配。

try one’s best to do sth. 意为“尽某人最大努力做某事”, 为固定短语。

7. 【解析】harder。

考查比较等级。

根据句中出现的than可以判断用比较级。

故填harder。

8. 【解析】succeeding。

考查非谓语动词。

介词after后接动名词作宾语, 且动词succeed 与I之间是逻辑上的主动关系。

故填succeeding。

9. 【解析】graduation。

考查词性转换。

after为介词, 后接名词作宾语, after graduation 意为“毕业后”。

10. 【解析】which。

考查定语从句。

所填词引导非限制性定语从句, 修饰前面整个句子。

从句中缺少宾语, 指代上句内容, 故填which。
