35、heir hearts and minds may change in the end.答案及解析：【语篇解读】本文介绍了由电影奇迹男孩得到的启示。1However考查副词。然而，电影奇迹男孩告诉我们，没有“正常”这种事，而且美不仅仅在于外表。根据上文“Most of us are lucky to be born with normal faces.”和下文“the movie Wonder shows us that there is no such thing as being normal and that beauty is more than skindeep.”可知，前后为转折关
36、系。故填However。2Based考查非谓语动词。根据一本畅销小说，这部电影是关于一个叫Auggie的男孩的。be based on为固定短语，意为“以为基础”，在句中作状语，因此用过去分词。故填Based。3himself考查代词。学会接受他自己。这里表示接受自己，与主语是同一个人，因此用反身代词，故填himself。4are taught考查时态、语态和主谓一致。在美国，大多数孩子都被教导要与众不同。根据上下文可知，用一般现在时，主语most kids是复数，并且与teach之间为被动关系，故填are taught。5accepting考查非谓语动词。但有些孩子很难接受独特性。have
37、difficulty (in) doing sth.为固定短语，意为“做某事有困难”，因此用动名词形式，故填accepting。6especially考查副词。特别是如果你有自己的问题要处理。修饰整个句子用副词作状语，故填especially。7who/that考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，可填词引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the kids，且在从句中作主语，故填who/that。8personal考查形容词。修饰名词struggles用形容词，故用personal。9with考查介词。他们开始发现他是个很有幽默感的好孩子。这里用介词with表示“拥有某物，具有某种品质”。故填with。10a考查冠词。句中名词chance为可数名词，这里表示“一个机会”，且chance的读音以辅音音素开头，所以用不定冠词，故填a。
