44、生的心灵。故选D。32C句意：“我”想和大家分享一个故事。故选C。33C句意：其中我最难忘的是一个五岁的孩子。memorable意为“难忘的，值得纪念的”。故选C。34B联系上文“who had difficulty walking”可知，这个小女孩是坐在我的大腿上的。故选B。35D从下文“clap with me”可知，此处指学生拍两次手。故选D。36BVanessa喜欢把她的手和“我”的手放在一起，然后和“我”一起拍手。故选B。37B根据上文中的“could not speak”可知，但她从来不说也不唱一个字。故选B。38Alook 意为“看”； see 意为“看见”； glare意为 “
45、瞪眼”；notice 意为“注意”。Vanessa转过身，直视着我的眼睛。look sb. in the eye 意为“直视某人的眼睛”。故选A。39D根据句意可知，因吃惊忘了呼吸，忘了心跳，但并不是不呼吸，心不跳了，而是最终回过神来了，所以不能用slowly，而用finally。故选D。40C句意：“我”看着那个助理教师，发现她也惊讶得说不出话来了。speechless 意为“(尤指气得或惊讶得)说不出话的”。故选C。41B句意：她面带微笑，向“我”招手。故选B。42A句意：模仿“我们”在音乐课上表演了很多次的那首歌。故选A。43B句意：每个孩子都有学习和成长的能力。故选B。44A句意：得靠

50、力的一个有用的方法。46useful考查形容词。way是名词，需要形容词来修饰。47less考查形容词比较级。根据上文“It is shorter ”以及并列连词 “and” 可知，此处用比较级，and 连接并列成分，故用little 的比较级less。48ourselves考查代词。express oneself意为“表达自我”。49finding考查非谓语动词。have trouble (in) doing sth. 意为“做某事有困难”。50are考查主谓一致。 there be句型中谓语动词单复数遵循就近原则，由于“many idiomatic ways”是复数形式，因此谓语动词用复数
