答案与解析
文章大意：这是一篇记叙文。短文叙述了作者小的时候在阁楼上的地板下意外地发现了“金子”，但母亲告诉作者，作者发现的不是金子而是隔热材料。当作者把金子放回去的时候，发现了一本关于短文、短语和谚语的书。这本书让作者意识到，即使自己不知道如何把事情表达清楚，也不需要感到羞愧或尴尬。它帮助作者看到了比作者年轻的头脑和心灵所能理解的更多的东西。
1．D 考查动词辨析。A.slowed放慢；B.calmed使平静；C.looked看；D.fell落下。句意：在阁楼上散步时，我踩到了什么东西，摔倒了。手拄在地板上，地板突然弹起，差点撞到我的头。由“with my hand landing on a floorboard”可知，作者手拄在地板上了，所以判断出作者是摔倒了。故D选项切题。
2．A 考查动词短语辨析。A.bent over弯腰；B.showed up出现；C.lay down躺下；D.broke in破门而入。句意：当我弯下腰向里看时，我简直不敢相信自己的眼睛：里面有金子。由“looked inside the open space”可知，弯下腰才能向里看，才能发现“金子”。故A选项切题。
3．C 考查动词辨析。A.stole偷；B.produced制造；C.seized抓住；D.hid躲藏。句意：我抓起一把闪闪发光的金子，走到楼梯最下面喊道：“妈妈。我在地板下面发现了金子！”。作者发现了金子，所以要抓起金子去楼下拿给妈妈看看。故C选项切题。
4．A 考查动词辨析。A.yelled叫喊；B.sighed叹息；C.admitted承认；D.complained抱怨。句意：我抓起一把闪闪发光的金子，走到楼梯最下面喊道：“妈妈。我在地板下面发现了金子！”。由“Mama，I found gold up here under the floor！”可知，“妈妈，我在地板下面发现了金子！”所以判断出作者在喊叫，表明作者很兴奋。故A选项切题。
5．C 考查连词辨析。A.or或者；B.so所以；C.but但是；D.for因为。句意：我冲上楼梯，但我的兄弟们从我身边快速地跑过去，差点把我撞倒。分析句意可知，前后语意表示转折，所以but符合句意。故C选项切题。
6．B 考查动词辨析。A.nodded点头；B.stuck插入；C.lowered降低；D.lifted举起。句意：妈妈打开门，伸出头，她只是说：“亲爱的，那是隔热材料。”妈妈打开了门，一定要伸出头与作者交谈，并且告诉作者那是隔热材料不是金子。B选项切题。
7．A 考查副词辨析。A.simply简单地；B.thoughtfully周全地；C.honestly诚实地；D.angrily生气地。句意：妈妈打开门，伸出头，她只是说：“亲爱的，那是隔热材料。”因为妈妈知道那是隔热材料，所以作者母亲很平静。所以simply符合句意。故A选项切题。
8．D 考查名词辨析。A.difference不同；B.choice选择；C.mistake错误；D.discovery发现。句意：我原以为，我真的发现了什么。前文的found与made a discovery“发现”同义词。故D选项切题。
9．C 考查动词辨析。A.sat坐；B.slid滑动；C.reached触及，够到；D.walked走。句意：当我把手伸进去想把假“金子”放回去时，这时我的手碰到了一本书一样东西。作者是从弹起的地板里拿出的“金子”，所以把手伸进去，才能送回原地。故C选项切题。
10．B 考查从属连词辨析。A.until直到； B．now that既然； C．unless除非；D.so that以至于。句意：既然我感到无聊，我决定看看这本小书里写了什么。分析句子可知，前后句表示因果关系。故B选项切题。

14．D 考查动词辨析。A.tended易于；B.offered提供；C.managed应对；D.hesitated犹豫。句意：因为我不知道如何把事情表达清楚，所以我经常犹豫要不要谈论它们。因为作者不知道如何把事情表达清楚，总是感到羞愧或尴尬，所以在谈论事情的时候总是犹犹豫豫的。故D选项切题。

Several years ago I __2__ a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always __3__ by things.People were always doing things that annoyed her, and __4__ was ever good enough.She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends.She became a really __5__ person.

Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at fault-finding, __14__ when we're honest, we can be sharply __15__ of the world.I'm not suggesting you __16__ problems, or that you pretend things are __17__ than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are—__18__ most of the time, and especially when it's not a really big __19__．
Train yourself to “bite your tongue”， and with a little __20__， you'll get really good at letting things go.And when you do, you'll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.

You may have filled your __13__ with so many things that there's little __14__ for your goals to grow.We must be careful not to confuse busyness with __15__， as goals are always achieved step by step.Be __16__ about how you use your time and what you focus on.Success often comes when you know what to __17__， rather than what to include in your life.
Goal setting is like the pig and chicken walking out early one morning.The chicken became really __18__ when she saw a sign: “Ham & Eggs, $2.99”．She said to the pig, “Look, we've got double billing again.” The pig said, “That's __19__ for you to say!
