Years ago I had the opportunity to meet a girl who strengthened my understanding of the power of belief. She was __36___ the most powerful person I had ever met. I met Chris for the first time while taking the Dale Carnegie __37___ in California. Our class had already been going for quite some time when ___38___, supported by metal crutches(拐杖), ___39__ herself in. Chris had cerebral palsy(大脑性麻痹). She had much ___40___ in communicating with others. This was not because of ___41___ of desire, but because most of her twenty-one years of life she had been kept in a room with no more than Elvis records and tapes to __42___ her. No one had taken the time to help her develop the ability to ___43___. It was Bonnie, her present caretaker, who ___44___ there was much more to Chris than anyone else could see. When asked by the instructor what her goal ___45___ the twelve-week course was, Chris struggled to respond and became impatient and ____46___ in the process. For most of her ___47___ nobody would listen to her. The only way she knew to get someone to ___48___ was through temper outbursts(发脾气). With Bonnie as her interpreter, Chris conveyed that her ___49___ was to be able to stand by herself in front of forty-five people and tell us about herself. On the twelfth week, Chris stood in front of the room and ___50___ with us, in her own words, what her life had been like. It was one of the most beautiful and enlightening experiences I had ever ___51____. Though as a girl who had in many ways been ____52___, she believed that she could ___53___ more in her life and she did. And she also had the love and support of forty-five friends, who, just weeks before, had been ____54___ strangers. What we all witnessed through Chris’ courage is that life is ____55___ moment by moment, based on our beliefs, which are related to both our personal and professional direction and have the power to make our wildest dreams come true. 小题1: A．luckily B．probably C．formally D．naturally 小题2: A．break B．chance C．house D．course 小题3: A．someone B．he C．herself D．she 小题4: A．ran B．rushed C．dragged D．jumped 小题5: A．difficulty B．concept C．disagreement D．suggestion 小题6: A．lack B．need C．notice D．cheer 小题7: A．impress B．annoy C．calm D．entertain 小题8: A．walk B．pronounce C．communicate D．write 小题9: A．knew B．asked C．spoke D．required 小题10: A．at B．for C．on D．in 小题11: A．angry B．surprised C．grateful D．noisy 小题12: A．way B．life C．operation D．process 小题13: A．watch B．smile C．listen D．understand 小题14: A．class B．goal C．ability D．reason 小题15: A．began B．agreed C．found D．shared 小题16: A．argued B．attended C．witnessed D．accepted 小题17: A．found out B．thrown away C．brought up D．held out 小题18: A．give B．spend C．accomplish D．accompany 小题19: A．complete B．necessary C．enough D．typical 小题20: A．called B．carried C．searched D．created
