There's always hope

I was sitting around the other morning thinking about some of my former (以前的) students． When I do that, my thoughts always turn to Vincent．

Eighteen years ago, on the first day of third grade, when I had my class write something about themselves, he just sat there． So I took him outside to see what was wrong． “You can ___ about something else; anything you want,” I offered． He turned to me and shouted, “I can’t write!” and threw his pencil．

Vincent was difficult and ______． He acted out． He threw things． He refused to work, to be quiet, to sit down．

So these many years later, I wondered what he was up to． With time on my hands, I googled him and looked him up on Facebook and before long I found him． And after a few texts we agreed to meet． And he told me his ______．

Vincent knew he was smart, but he also knew he couldn’t do what other kids did． He had to move around and talk． For him, sitting still, listening and reading, didn't ______． The more he tried to do the things on his terms, the more we forced him to do the things on our terms and the angrier he got． The angrier he got, the more trouble he got into．

In other words, we _______ him．

But he wouldn’t let me tell him that． He took full responsibility for his behavior． He remembered feeling ______ for acting out．

That _____me． Kids like Vincent are always angry about something; they hold the world responsible for the consequence(后果)．

This story also had one of us turning Vincent around． But none of us did that for him． There were no excellent teachers like Annie Sullivan or Jaime Escalante． That didn’t mean we didn’t______． I remember countless conversations, trying to understand him, going to his Little League games．

It was Vincent who turned Vincent around, along with a junkie (吸毒者) house painter he worked with after failing through high school． This guy clearly scared (驚嚇) him straight; talked him into going to ______．

But it was Vincent who attended classes and got straight A’s for two years． And it was Vincent who got accepted into ten different universities, including Stanford and UW． And it was Vincent who landed a great job at a big tech company．

Vincent is completely different form 18 years ago． I couldn’t be happier for him．

And for me, the _____ is simple but powerful — there’s always hope．

【解析】

試題分析：本文主要講述了作為老師的作者通過講述了一個叫做Vincent的學(xué)生的故事，Vincent在小時候不能和其他的孩子一樣安靜地坐在教室聽課做作業(yè)，老師越強(qiáng)迫他，他將會變得更煩躁�？墒呛髞碜髡甙l(fā)現(xiàn)Vincent卻很成功。告訴大家總有希望。

【1】C考查動詞及語境 根據(jù)文章when I had my class write something about themselves, 可知作者讓學(xué)生們寫一寫關(guān)于自己的東西，可是Vincent卻坐在那里動也不動，作者就上前去告訴他可以寫任何自己想寫的東西。故選C。

【2】A 考查形容詞及語境 根據(jù)后文The more he tried to do the things on his terms, the more we forced him to do the things on our terms and the angrier he got可知答案為A。

【3】B考查名詞及語境 在很多年之后，作者和Vincent又聯(lián)系上了，在短信交流后他們見面了，Vincent給作者講述了他自己的故事。

【4】C考查動詞及語境 Vincent和其他的孩子不一樣，他不能安靜地坐在那里靜靜地做事。所以對他來說安靜地坐著聽課對他來說根本就不起作用。

【5】D考查動詞及語境 作為老師的作者強(qiáng)迫Vincent安靜地坐在那里上課，讓他變得更煩躁反而起了負(fù)作用。

【6】D考查形容詞及語境 Vincent卻從不責(zé)怪老師，因?yàn)樗�自己知道自己的表現(xiàn)很糟糕，所以自己負(fù)責(zé)。

【7】C考查動詞及語境 Vincent的故事讓我感到很驚訝。A．attracted吸引；B．encouraged鼓勵；C．surprised吃驚；D．influenced影響。故選C。

【8】A考查動詞及語境 但這并不意味著作者什么事情都沒有去做，沒有努力。他也與孩子有無數(shù)次的談話，也努力嘗試著去理解他，走進(jìn)他。故選A。

【9】C考查名詞及語境恐嚇?biāo)�上大學(xué)。A．movies電影；B．business生意；C．college大學(xué)；D．sports運(yùn)動。根據(jù)題意，故選C，
