试题分析：文章大意：文章讲述了作者的儿子因车祸而受伤，这令他很难过。但他的同样遭受过车祸的儿时的同学海伦的生活态度感染了他，给他了希望，最后他的儿子奇迹般的康复了。

1.

2.lived生活；survived幸存；existed存在；escaped逃跑。从后半句“(Helen)从腰部以下全部瘫痪”可知，Helen从车祸中幸存了下来。survive the accident是常用搭配，表示“从事故中幸存下来”。故选B

3. one’s mind意为“在某人的心目中”。 句意是以一个13岁孩子的思维认为从此她不可能再正常生活了。故选A

4.equally平等地；calmly平静地；quietly安静地；normally正常地。作者认为Helen成为残疾人之后很难再过正常人的生活，因此这里用normally。故选D

5.句意是几年后我离开了，并且古语海伦再没想那么多。故选B

6.suffering遭受；causing导致；bearing忍受；catching抓住。儿子被汽车撞了，导致了严重的脑损伤。故选B

7.

8. off挂断电话。从前句的作者的情绪可知，她应该是挂断了电话。句意是我无原因的流泪了并挂断了电话。故选B

9.因为是坐着轮椅所以用roll，滚动。坐着轮椅不可能是跑进、走进或是移进房间，而应该是滚动轮椅进入房间的。故选C

10.tissues纸巾；presents礼物；pills药片；candies糖果。由后面的“She smiled, handed me the tissues and hugged me.”可知Helen来的时候带着纸巾。故选A

11.realized意识到；knew知道；recognized认出；reminded记得。虽然16年没见，但作者还是认出了Helen，用recognized。故选C

12.

13.clear清晰的；smoothed使平静；cleaned干净的；opened打开。smooth the path for sb．固定搭配，“为某人铺平道路”。 句意是她使那些比她更不幸的人平静下来。故选B

14.fortunate幸运。作为残疾人，Helen能结婚、生子、获得学位，是很幸运的事，因此她这样做就为那些生活比她还要不幸的人铺平了生活道路。故选D

15. learned that where there is life, there is hope可以推出答案。海伦给作者的应该是精神上的安慰，希望。故选B。

16.

17.admitted承认；beaten打击；hurt受伤；hospitalized住院。从上文提到的“my oldest son was hit by a car while riding his bike, 6 (causing) a terrible brain injury”可知这里作者指的是儿子在意外中受伤，用hurt，而其他的词性不符合语境。故选C。

18.

19. north可知，这里应指的是作者儿子康复，用recovered而不是treated治疗，worsened恶化，relieved减轻。故选D

20.a debt债务，这里应指人情债，句意是我欠海伦一个永远都无法偿还的人情债。此句意为“但是我欠Helen一笔永远偿还不了的债”。故选C
