试题分析：这篇文章讲述了作者的儿子Joey是先天性畸形足，在医生的治疗下，走路完全没有问题，但是Joey并不知道这件事，他和正常的孩子一样玩耍，跑跳，还参加学校的赛跑比赛。

1.A考查动词及语境理解。句意：他生命的头三年在医院度过。spent，花费时间或金钱，主语是人；taken 花费时间； cost花费时间或金钱，主语是物或者某种活动，不能用于被动句；paid花费金钱，主语是人。所以选A。

2.D考查动词及语境理解。句意：当你看见他走路的时候，你不知道他的脚有问题。talk说话； sit坐；study学习；walk走路。 根据文章大意我们知道Joey有畸形足，经过治疗走路是没有问题的，可知，当你看见他走路的时候，你不知道他的脚有问题。所以选D。

3.C考查介词及语境理解。句意：邻居的孩子们玩耍的时候总是四处跑。after在……之后；before在……之前；during在……期间 ；till直到。所以选C。

4.B考查副词及语境理解。句意：孩子在玩耍时到处跑，Joey也跳呀，跑呀，玩呀。either也，用于否定句；too也，用于肯定句；though虽然；yet然而。所以选B。

5.A考查形容词及语境理解。句意：我们从来没有告诉他他不能像其他孩子那样跑。able能，有能力的；sorry对不起的；glad高兴的；afraid害怕的。 be able to 能够做某事。所以选A。

6.B考查数词及语境理解。句意：在他读七年级时，他决定参加学校的跑步队。sixth第六；seventh第七；eighth第八；ninth第九。根据文章最后一段，我们可知，他读七年级。所以选B。

7.D考查连词及语境理解。句意：他每天都训练，比其他人跑的都多，那是因为只能选跑的最好的7名学生参加学校的比赛。so 因此；if 如果；then 那么；because因为。空后句子表示原因，故选D。

8.C考查名词及语境理解。句意：他每天都训练，比其他人跑的都多，那是因为只能选跑的最好的7名学生参加学校的比赛。neighborhood邻居；family家庭；school学校；grade年级。根据前文可知，他是参加学校的跑步队，可知，这里肯定是为学校跑步。所以选C。

9.D考查形容词及语境理解。句意：我很担心他。excited高兴的；tired 疲倦的；pleased高兴的；worried担心的。根据句意即使发烧，他每天都跑四、五百米，可知作者很担心他。所以选D。

10.D考查动词短语及语境理解。句意：所以他放学后我去找他。think about考虑；hear from收到…的来信；agree with同意；look for寻找。 根据前文可知作者很担心他，所以在他放学后就去找他去了。所以选D。

11.A考查副词及语境理解。句意：我发现他一个人在跑。alone一个人；away 离去；almost差不多，几乎；already已经。根据句意可知，作者看见他一个人在跑步。所以选A。

14.C考查动词及语境理解。句意：乔被选为了学校跑步队里的一员。got得到；kept保持；made制作，成为；found发现。根据前文及后文讲到其余的队员都是八年级的，可知他被选为了学校跑步队里的一员，make the team成为队里一员，所以选C。
