文章大意：本文主要讲述了“我”作为一位新老师所经历的一件意想不到的事情：一个成绩非常差，书写糟糕的孩子的母亲竟然来感谢我对孩子的教导。感谢“我”给孩子带来的改变，“我”经过一番思索之后才恍然大悟。
1.A.cleaner B.reporter
C.monitor D.teacher
答案：D词汇复现及逻辑推理题。根据下文中提到的I gave an honest account of the students work.和后面的描述可知，“我”是一名新老师。
2.A.Or B.And
C.But D.So
答案：C逻辑推理题。根据上面的叙述the grades were awfully low和He couldnt read his own handwriting可知：他的成绩差并且字也不好看，“但是”他是一个“bright”的学生。由此可知，上下句之间表示转折关系。
rage B.abilities
C.feelings D.dream
答案：B逻辑推理题。他很聪明，能用成人的理解力去讨论成人的问题，他的作品(写的字)绝不可能反映出他的能力(ability)。
4.A.desperate B.responsible
C.unprepared D.unsuitable
答案：C逻辑推理题。前文写到手心都是汗，后文提到Simon妈妈的吻以及感谢，加上第一段描述孩子成绩差，“我”又是个新老师，所以完全没有预料到(unprepared)Simon妈妈竟然是这么热情。
5.A.Because of B.In spite of
C.Apart from D.As for
答案：A逻辑推理题。前句Simon的妈妈说是来谢谢“我”，而谢谢的原因从后句可以推出来，Simon变得不一样，会交朋友等，这都是由于“我”。 because of由于，因为。
6.A.loved B.envied
C.pleased D.criticized
答案：A词语辨析题。从前后文语境来看，孩子是喜欢(love)老师的。envy嫉妒;please取悦;criticize批评。
7.A.gradually B.constantly
C.recently D.obviously
答案：C词语辨析题。gradually逐渐地;constantly连续不断地;recently最近;obviously明显地。此处表示“最近他12年来第一次可以在朋友家待一下午”。
8.A.self­respect B.self­doubt
C.self­pity D.self­defense
答案：A逻辑推理题。self­respect自尊;self­doubt自我怀疑;self­pity自我怜惜;self­defense自我保护。Simon妈妈是想要告诉老师孩子的改变，此处肯定选择褒义词，表示孩子正在向好的方向发展，A项符合上下文语境。
9.A.imagining B.observing
C.wondering D.regretting
答案：C逻辑推理题。“我”惊呆了，花了半个小时坐在那边一直在想刚刚发生了什么，事情是不是真的。wonder想知道。
10.A.also B.even
C.always D.still
答案：B逻辑推理题。她很困惑在自己是个新老师甚至(even)不了解这个孩子的情况的时候为什么Simon会变化那么大?
11.A.expect B.remember
C.believe D.accept
答案：B逻辑推理题。前文交代坐在那儿花了半小时的时间在想，后文交代是几个月前的某一天，说明作者是在记起(remember)为什么Simon变化会那么大。
12.A.writing B.reviewing
C.editing D.giving
答案：D逻辑推理题。根据下文中的in the front of the class和动词spoke，说明是在作报告。give a report作报告。
13.A.quietly B.repeatedly

16.A.slept B.smiled
C.shouted D.quarreled
答案：B原词复现题。“我”在鼓励Jeanne的时候，提到了Simon，Simon觉得自己被老师关注到了，所以开始变得不同，再根据后面的and became happy可知B项正确。
17.A.intended B.pretended
C.refused D.happened
答案：D逻辑推理题。根据上下文的表述，“我”明白过来根源是碰巧(happen)他坐在最后一排，于是才有了这样的一个故事的发生与转变。
18.A.change B.praise
C.thanks D.visits
答案：B逻辑推理题。Simon是由于“我”在鼓励Jeanne的时候顺带得到了“我”的肯定，于是便变得不同了，说明孩子特别需要肯定，需要表扬(praise)。
19.A.difficult B.painful
C.valuable D.enjoyable
答案：C词语辨析题。“我”认为这一次经历带给“我”最有价值的一次课。difficult困难的;painful痛苦的;valuable有价值的;enjoyable享受的。
