On my first day of the sixth grade, I noticed one little girl called Amy on the school bus. “Don’t __26__ her,” Lauren said, who sat beside me. “Or they will make fun of you.”

Amy had many __27__ differences — lots of reasons for other kids to make fun of her. Her eyes weren’t straight. Her glasses were an inch thick. And she had really ugly teeth.

Every day __28__ we drove to and from school, kids would shout insults (侮辱) at Amy. “God, what a (n) __29__ face! Stop looking at me!” “Mr. Rolland (the driver)! Amy took off her __30__, and now her eyes are __31__ me! Make her put them back on!” For a while I shouted my share of insults, just so I’d fit in (合群). __32__, I didn’t want them to treat me the same way they treated Amy.

But while I was insulting her, my heart __33__ for the girl. I could see that the insults were making her look __34__, because she was so ashamed (羞愧) and alone. Then I wanted to __35__ her. I just didn’t know how to stop my schoolmates __36__ the night of our class roller-skating party.

Our whole class was there, including Amy. Amy didn’t know how to __37__, but I could see how much she wanted to __38__ like the rest of us. So I skated over to her and took her by the hand; we began the journey together around the skating rink (溜冰场). She just smiled, and sometimes she would laugh in __39__.

On the school bus the next morning there was much news about Amy and me __40__ together, __41__ nobody insulted her or me. And they didn’t do that for the rest of the year.

After graduation, I never __42__ Amy again. However, I never forget her and I’ve always __43__ if I changed her life for the better. But I know for sure she changed my __44__. After becoming her friend, I no longer tried to impress (给……留下印象) people by trying to __45__ like them. I became myself.

【解析】

26．从下文来看，对方是一个长相比较困难的女孩，所以还是不要接近她、和她交谈的为好，所以用talk to。

27．长相与众不同，应该用physical differences。

28．每天在一起坐车上学的途中，应该用while或者as，表示“当…时候”。

29．长相难看或者是“奇特”，所以用strange。

30．31，从上下文来看，Amy是戴着眼镜的。这里说话人向司机抱怨说她取下了自己的眼镜（glass），这件事情吓着（frightening）自己了。

32．上文讲作者也参与了辱骂，以显示自己的合群。毕竟（after all），自己不想让别人像对待Amy一样对待自己。

33．当自己辱骂对方的时候，自己的心为对方感到疼痛（ache）。

34．辱骂很显然让对方很生气，难过，所以面部表情变化，脸上更难看了（uglier）。

35．因为看到对方的伤心，所以想站起来支持（stand up for）对方。

36．not until的结构，作者直到晚上溜冰的时候才相出办法来阻止同学们辱骂Amy。

37．从下文来看，在溜冰场，Amy不知道怎么滑冰，所以用 skate。

38．作者应该看得出来女孩是多么的渴望能和大家一起开心的玩耍，所以用have fun。

39．有人能够交她怎么滑冰，很开心的一件事情啊，所以是开心的笑了，laugh in joy。

40．很显然第二天大家都在谈论作者和女孩一起滑冰的事情，所以用skating。

41．从下文来看，这一次没有人嘲笑作者和女孩了。表示转折。

42．毕业之后，再也没有收到女孩的信件了（hear from）。

43．从下文的if可以看出来，作者一直在想自己是否给她的生活带来转机呢？所以用wonder。

44．从下文来看有一点可以肯定的是，女孩改变了自己的生活。因为自己从那以后再也没有盲从别人了，这是生活上的转变。所以用life。

45．同上分析，作者没有像别人那样做事情。所以用act。
