Another person’s enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved. That person was my stepmother.
I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia. My father【C1】______me to her with these words: "I would like you to meet the fellow who is【C2】______for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no【C3】______than tomorrow morning."
My stepmother walked over to me,【C4】______my head slightly upward, and looked me right in the eye. Then she looked at my father and replied, "You are【C5】______. This is not the worst boy at all, 【C6】______the smartest one who hasn’t yet found an outlet (释放的途径) for his enthusiasm."
That statement began a(n) 【C7】______between us. No one had ever called me smart. My family and neighbors had built me up in my【C8】______as a bad boy. My stepmother changed all that.
She changed many things. She【C9】______my father to go to a dental school, from which he graduated with honors. She moved our family into the county seat, where my father’s career could be more【C10】______and my brother and I could be better【C11】______.
When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand【C12】______and told me that she believed that I could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm, I【C13】______it, and I saw how it had improved our lives. I accepted her【C14】______and began to write for local newspapers. I was doing the same kind of【C15】______that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life’s work later. I wasn’t the【C16】______beneficiary (受益者). My father became the【C17】______man in town. My brother and stepbrothers became a physician, a dentist, a lawyer, and a college president.
What power【C18】______has! When that power is released to support the certainty of one’s purpose and is【C19】______strengthened by faith, it becomes an irresistible (不可抗拒的) force which poverty and temporary defeat can never【C20】______.
You can communicate that power to anyone who needs it. This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm.
【C16】
选项
A、next
B、same
C、only
D、real
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。结合后面提到的父亲以及brother,stepbrothers的情况可知,作者并不是唯一的受益者,故答案为[C]only。
