Many years ago, I went to ________  my mother from work in the afternoon. I got there a little early so I parked the car by the road and waited for her.

As I looked outside the car window to my right, there was a small park where I ________ a little boy, around one and a half to two years old, ________  freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance. The boy had a big smile on his face _________ he had just been set free from some sort of prison. The boy would then fall to the grass, get up, and without ________  or without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could, again, still with a smile on his face. It seemed   ________  had happened!

For kids, ________ at an early age, when they fall down, they don't regard their falling down as a  ________  ;instead, they treat it as a learning experience. They feel compelled to try and try again until they succeed. The answer must be that they have not   ________  "falling down" with the word "failure" yet, thus they don' t know how to feel the state which accomparues failure. Therefore, they are not   _________ in any way. In addition, they probably think to themselves that it's perfectly okay to fall down, and that it's not wrong to do so.  ________  , they give themselves permission to make mistakes. Thus they remain energetic.

Touched as I was by the boy's   ________  , I was equally touched by the manner in which he ran. With each attempt, he looked so ________ and natural. No   ________ of fear and nervousness.

His only aim was to run freely and to do it as ________ as he could. He was just being a child-just being himself - being completely in the moment. He was not looking for ________  or was not worrying about whether someone was ________ or not. He wasn't concerned about being judged. He didn't seem to be bothered by the fact that maybe someone would see him fall ( as there were others in the park apart from him and his mother) and that it would be ________ if he did fall. No, all that ________  to him was to accomplish the task or activity at hand to the best of his ability. To run and to feel the experience of running fully and freely. I ________  a lot from that observation and experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in my many pursuits in life.

完型填空题的命题特点及答题方法：

1.侧重基础知识，考查学生语言知识的能力

完型填空以文入手，结合文章的内容考查学生的基础知识，主要是词语搭配、固定句型、近义词辨析、辨析句子结构、掌握语法规则的能力，其中考查实词居多。

2.上下文对照，考查学生捕捉关键词的能力

解完型填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要注意句子间的关系及句子与段落的关系。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。如第43小题 考查动词。A. marching行军；B. walking步行；C. running 跑；D. moving移动。此处指小男孩自由地在草地上跑，根据下文的run as fast as he could,和 run freely也可知答案。故选C.

3.设置语境，考查学生的分析推理能力

旨在考查学生在选项都符合语法及句子结构的情况下能否利用前后语境去推断出正确答案。如第45小题考查名词。A. hesitation 犹豫；B. competition竞争； C. situation情况；D. motivation动机。此处指小男孩摔倒了爬起来，毫不犹豫地继续往前跑。根据当时的情境可知选A.

4.结合生活，考查学生利用常识题的能力

目的考查学生的生活常识，看看学生是否善于观察生活，积累生活常识，能否利用常识去做恰当的选择。如第56小题考查名词。A. explanation说明； B. approval 认可，赞成；C. curiosity 好奇；D. opinion意见。此处指他并不是想让别人认可他，也不关心是不是别人在看他。根据生活常识可知小孩做事不会考虑太多，故选B.

5.关注连词，考查学生对行文逻辑、句子关联的理解能力

此项用来考查学生在缺少连词的情况想，通过阅读能否理解句子的与句子的关系，是否了解行文逻辑的要求，能否掌握表示因果、转折、并列、条件、让步等的连词的用法。
