本文講了作者在愛(ài)迪生和父親的影響下，一步步成為一個(gè)成功的發(fā)明家的故事。

【1】句意：但是直到我知道托馬斯·愛(ài)迪生我才真正變得對(duì)發(fā)明感興趣。

while當(dāng)……時(shí)候；after在……之后；until直到；when當(dāng)……時(shí)。not…until表示“直到……才”，本句表示直到我知道愛(ài)迪生才開(kāi)始對(duì)發(fā)明感興趣。故選C。

【2】句意：但是直到我知道托馬斯·愛(ài)迪生我才真正變得對(duì)發(fā)明感興趣。

certain當(dāng)然；impatient焦躁的；annoyed打擾；excited興奮。根據(jù)I have invented robots…可知“我”發(fā)明了機(jī)器人，對(duì)發(fā)明感興趣。故選D。

【3】句意：當(dāng)我上四年級(jí)的時(shí)候，我們老師給我們一個(gè)計(jì)劃。

lesson課；project計(jì)劃；surprise驚訝；present禮物。根據(jù)We had to write to a company and learn about the product it made.“我們不得不寫(xiě)一封信向公司介紹我們的產(chǎn)品”可推測(cè)這句話是老師安排任務(wù)的具體內(nèi)容，因此“計(jì)劃”符合句意。故選B。

【4】句意：我選擇了愛(ài)迪生公司。

joined加入；owned擁有；started開(kāi)始；chose選擇。根據(jù)We had to write to a company and learn about the product it made.可知我們的計(jì)劃是向公司展示我們的計(jì)劃，因此“我”“選擇”了愛(ài)迪生公司。故選D。

【5】句意：我多么喜愛(ài)讀這本書(shū)，并且重讀一下他的發(fā)明！

enjoyed喜愛(ài)；minded介意；avoided避免；hated恨。根據(jù)Edison became my hero.可推測(cè)是非常喜歡愛(ài)迪生。故選A。

【6】句意：給我印象最深的發(fā)明是電影、留聲機(jī)和電燈。

ones是one的復(fù)數(shù)形式，替代名詞；one一個(gè)；other其他的；others其他（東西）。根據(jù)were movies, recorded sound, and the electric light.可知此空表示復(fù)數(shù)的詞，ones指代inventions。故選A。

【7】句意：我爸爸注意到我對(duì)發(fā)明的興趣，鼓勵(lì)我。

enjoyed喜愛(ài)；minded介意；controlled控制；encouraged鼓勵(lì)。根據(jù)下文He showed me how to turn my ideas into plans and…他向我展示怎么將想法變成計(jì)劃，可推測(cè)爸爸鼓勵(lì)我繼續(xù)發(fā)明。故選D。

【8】句意：他向我展示怎么將想法變成計(jì)劃，然后變成新的東西。

then然后；after在……之后；before在……之前；late晚的。and連接兩個(gè)并列部分，并且是先有plan，然后變成new things。故選A。

【9】句意：我和爸爸一起修理收音機(jī)和電視。

put up建造；fixed up修理；set up建立；called up打電話。根據(jù)空后所接radios and televisions.“收音機(jī)和電視”可知fixed up符合句意。故選B。

【10】句意：一次，我驚訝的發(fā)現(xiàn)我爸爸用我制造的工具去修我們車(chē)的剎車(chē)。

mistake錯(cuò)誤；promise承諾；tool工具；trick詭計(jì)。根據(jù)下文Later, we found a similar tool in a store.“我們?cè)谏痰臧l(fā)現(xiàn)了一樣的工具。”故選C。

【11】句意：那時(shí)我知道了不同的發(fā)明者可能會(huì)發(fā)明相同的東西。

young年輕的；different不同的；remarkable卓越的；responsible負(fù)責(zé)的。根據(jù)上文我的工具和商店賣(mài)的一樣可知此處表示“不同的發(fā)明者可能會(huì)發(fā)明相同的東西。”故選B。

【12】句意：失敗是發(fā)明過(guò)程正常的一個(gè)部分。

Imagination想象；Failure失��；Happiness幸福；Inspiration靈感。根據(jù)I learned, too, that not all great ideas work.可知偉大的主意不一定都奏效，可推斷此處表示“失敗是發(fā)明過(guò)程正常的一個(gè)部分。”故選B。

【13】句意：他的指導(dǎo)的手聯(lián)合我對(duì)發(fā)明的興趣，導(dǎo)致我成為一個(gè)發(fā)明家。

impressed印象深刻；combined 聯(lián)合；marked標(biāo)志；born出生。根據(jù)句意可知父親的手和我的興趣共同使我成為一個(gè)發(fā)明家。B選項(xiàng)符合句意。故選B。

【14】句意：他的指導(dǎo)的手聯(lián)合我對(duì)發(fā)明的興趣，導(dǎo)致我成為一個(gè)發(fā)明家。

expert專(zhuān)家；gentleman紳士；inventor發(fā)明家；coach教練。根據(jù)my interest in inventing我對(duì)發(fā)明的興趣，然后使我成為發(fā)明家。故選C。

【15】句意：但是我也感謝托馬斯·愛(ài)迪生，第一次在我心里點(diǎn)亮燈泡。

above在……之上；outside在外面；below在……之下；inside在……里面。結(jié)合But I am grateful to Thomas Edison, too,可知愛(ài)迪生對(duì)我的影響，才讓我對(duì)發(fā)明感興趣，因此是從點(diǎn)亮我心里的燈。故選D。

完形填空題并不是單純考查語(yǔ)法，也是考查學(xué)生綜合運(yùn)用語(yǔ)言的能力。因此，必須選擇符合語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)并能使上下文意義連貫的答案。有時(shí)候設(shè)置的選項(xiàng)具有迷惑性，如果單從語(yǔ)法角度分析，每個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是正確的，但是通過(guò)語(yǔ)境判斷，只有一個(gè)選項(xiàng)能夠傳達(dá)文章意思。因此我們要回顧上文，兼顧下文，在文中尋找相關(guān)的線索或提示，從而確定答案。本文的10、11、12、13、14題均需要在文中閱讀上下文，猜測(cè)需要選擇的詞匯。

Emily is a music teacher. She has always made some money by giving piano lessons. She had a student named Robby. He was 11 years old when his mother took him to his first piano lesson. Emily thinks that students should begin at an earlier age, which she explained to Robby. But Robby said that it had always been his mother's wish to hear him play the piano, so she took him as a student. But from the beginning Emily thought he was a hopeless learner. He was not talented in playing the piano. But Emily had to say he tried hard. One day, Robby stopped coming back and told her that he wanted to play in public. He said his mother had been ill, so he had to practice at home. Emily hesitated(猶豫) because she thought he couldn't play the piano well enough, but finally she agreed.
The night for the public show came. The high school hall was full of parents and friends. When Robby began playing, Emily was surprised at what she heard. He played so well that everyone in the hall was moved. Emily ran up to him when he ended. "I've never heard you play like that, Robby! How could you do it?" "Well, Miss Emily … do you remember that I told you my mom was sick? Well, in fact, she was so sick that she died this morning. And well … she was born deaf, so tonight was the first time she ever heard me play. I wanted to make it special."
When Emily heard this, she felt that he was the teacher and she was the student. For it was he that taught her the meaning of love and believing in yourself.
（1）Why did Robby begin to practice playing the piano?
（2）Did Robby show great talent at the piano?
（3）How did Emily feel when Robby told her that he wanted to play in public?
（4）What happened to Robby's family that day he played in public?
（5）What did Emily learn from Robby?
