解析:

36. C。  根据文章我们推断出Andy左右脑结合的不好,导致身体的右边跟左边连接有缺陷。

37. D。  根据“were not joined normally with each other.”可推断:Andy 身体的两边不能相互交流。

38. B。  从此句中我们判断出:因为Andy身体方面的缺陷导致他说话,走路等都很困难。

39. D。  因为他行走,说话都有问题,所以只能对别人的话做出很少的反应或回应。 respond的意思是“回应; 反应; 响应”。

40. C。  根据上文的句意:他行走,说话都有问题,推断出他走路很缓慢。

41. A。  句意:Andy 参加了一个全天的康复医疗中心,而这个中心有各种疗法。join加入某种组织等;present 后面加at时出席的意思; go需加上to再加名词。

42. B。  从此段的第一句话我们可以判断出。Andy挣扎着去让自己变得强壮些。

43.   C。  此句话的意思是Andy很讨厌父母送他去进行训练,之后他们就离开了,但是他父母认为这对Andy很有帮助。However可用于句首,句中,句末,并用逗号隔开表转折。

44.   D。  从上下文我们Andy的父母期望他能过上正常的健康的生活,应该说“to live a normal healthy life”。

45.   C。  从这个选项的下一句我们得知,Andy努力取得了成功。pay off意思是“取得成功”;pay back偿还, 报复;pay out支付, 付出, 惩罚, 报复; pay for为…付款。

46.   A。  从该句中“but”,我们得知Andy虽然在一些事情得到别人特殊地帮助,但是他主动地加入到大家的活动当中。

47. D。    此句话的意思是:Andy克服了很多困难走向胜利。overcome 克服,overlook忽视,beat打败,win 获得,赢得。

Let me take you back a couple of years. Come with me as we relearn a lesson, one that has stuck with me, in my present memory, and   36  me yet. We walked into Elida Road Hardware, an old-fashioned hardware    37___ . No automatic door, not a computer in the building. It was one that I went to fairly often. As we entered the door, two sounds    38  us. The sleigh bells of last year made that sweet, peaceful tinkle as we opened the door. The other sound was the electronic beeper that reminded Andy of our   39   .
“Good afternoon, Ryan,”     40    the cheerful greeting. Andy was a very   41    sort of owner. He was of medium build and height, and the smile on his face welcomed us.
We walked across the old wood floor. Andy asked us what he could help us with. I told him we were      42   a spring(弹簧). He very patiently replied, “l have lots of springs. You’re going to need to be more specific.”
“Just a spring for an old-fashioned screen door.”
“That’s it. A screen door spring, right down there. ” We   43  where he was pointing, and sure enough, there they were. And knew his store, and his products. That was why I came here instead of Meijer. The service couldn’t be beaten. The price; Yes. But service and  44    ;No.
I picked up one and followed him to the    45   .
He figured up the price, doing the math in his head, “ $1.88,with tax comes to $1. 99. ”
“ Put it on my dad’s account. ”
He nodded and smiled, “ Good dad’s account. ” He smiled. “I don’t know what you boys would do    46    dad’s account! ”
He handed me the ticket and as I    47    it, I asked, “You really trust my signature?”
His reply surprised,_   48    delighted me. “ When I can’t trust Jerry Hoover’s boys, I can trust nobody! ”
We left, and the brain immediately started to forget things, in order of importance. But what Andy said that day rang in my ears. And it rings in my ears today. That’s a tall order to live up to. It’s a high standard of    49   .My father made a fame for that name, and I get to enjoy the benefits. But on account of this, I must maintain that fame. And that’s     50    business.
