I was sitting in front of him and then we started. And I taught him how to become a strong pupil. And his grades began to improve ______.

【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者的儿子曾经是班上最差的学生之一，但作者并没有说消极的话来打击儿子，而是用积极的语言鼓励他，并帮助他成为一名好学生，最终她的儿子做到了。

【1】句意：当时他只有九岁，一直是班上最弱的学生之一。

考查形容词。laziest最懒；strongest最强壮；weakest最虚弱；fastest最快速；根据“He said that he wished that he were a strong student…”他说他希望自己是个强壮的学生……，可以推断出作者的儿子是班级上最弱的学生，所以他希望自己变得强壮。故选C。

【2】句意：他说，他希望自己是一个强壮的学生，能够加入Gymnasium学校，一所针对年龄从12岁或13岁开始，且只面向最好学生的一所很好的学校。

考查动词。visit参观；attend加入；realize 认识到；find发现。根据后文可知，Gymnasium是一所学校，作者的儿子通过努力通过了考试，加入了这所学校。故此处表示“加入”，故选B。

【3】句意：我真不想通过告诉他“对于这所学校来说你可能不足够强大。”来动摇他。

考查介词。by通过……；in在……里边；for为了；on在……上面。根据句意及本句中weak him使他虚弱，可推测此处表示“通过……方式或方法”，后边跟telling动名词形式。by符合题意，故选A。

【4】句意：鲍勃·普洛克特的话就在我眼前“让你的孩子看到成绩A”，我说，“是的，你可以，如果你希望的话。”

考查情态动词。can't不能；must必须；need需要；can能。根据“if you really wish to.”如果你真的希望的话。可知此处是对儿子鼓励的话，表示“如果你真的希望，你就能做到。”故此处表示“能够”，故选D。

【5】句意：他的成绩开始逐渐提高。

考查副词。gradually逐步地；suddenly突然地；recently最近地；seriously严重地。根据“After a year, he had improved to be an average student already,”一年后，他已经进步为一名成绩平均的学生。故可以推断作者让儿子花费了一年的时间成长为普通的学生，所以儿子是逐步地进步着。故选A。

【6】句意：一年后，他已经进步到一个普通的学生，所以我们继续努力。

考查动词短语。gave up放弃；went on继续；tried out试验，考验；fell over跌倒。根据本句“he had improved to be an average student already”他已经进步成为一个成绩平均的学生了，可知作者和儿子继续努力。went on符合题意，故选B。

【7】句意：令我惊讶的是，他通过了考试!

考查动词。finished完成；made制造，使得；failed失败；passed通过。根据下文“His dream came true.”可知作者的儿子应该是通过了考试。pass the exam表示“通过考试”，故选D。

【8】句意：如果我那时告诉他，他太弱了，不能通过这次考试，他就会一直是一个弱学生。

考查副词。very非常；so因此，多么；too太；quite很，相当。根据“…weak to be able to pass this test”可知此处有固定结构too…to…，表示“太……不能……”。故选C。

【9】句意：我想鼓励世界上所有的父母把这个秘密教给你的孩子。

考查动词。encourage鼓励；protect保护；introduce介绍；choose选择。根据后一句“Build them strong wings!”给他们建造一对强壮的翅膀! 可推断此处表示作者鼓励所有的父母。encourage符合题意。故选A。

【10】句意：当你和你的孩子一起飞行的时候，你也会长出强壮的翅膀!

考查连词。unless如果不，可引导条件状语从句；after在……之后，引导时间状语从句；while然而，与此同时，可引导时间状语从句；though虽然，尽管，引导让步状语从句。根据句意可知，此处表示“当你和你的孩子一起飞行的时候”是时间状语从句，且表示两者同时进行，故用while引导。故填C。
