這篇短文給我們講述了一個偉大的人物—孔子�？鬃有〉臅r候家里很窮，上不起學(xué)，他自學(xué)了讀書、寫字和很多有趣的事情，是一個很聰明的人�，F(xiàn)在他的很多話仍然為人們所記得。

【1】句意：當(dāng)他只有三歲的時候，他的父親去世了。only僅僅，只。根據(jù)句意可知，這里強調(diào)孔子很小的時候，父親就去世了，所以應(yīng)填only。

【2】句意：在那些日子里，人們必須花錢上學(xué)，而他的母親沒有足夠的錢送他上學(xué)。根據(jù)上文His mother was very poor. 可知，孔子的媽媽很窮；再根據(jù)這句話中In those days people had to pay to go to school可知，上學(xué)需要花錢。由此可知這里應(yīng)填money，錢。

【3】句意：因此他覺得自學(xué)。decide決定，是一個動詞，常用于句型decide to do sth.決定去做某事。全文講述的是孔子的事跡，以一般過去時態(tài)為主，故這里應(yīng)填過去式decided。

【4】句意：孔子很不高興，但他是一個善良、溫和的男孩，他沒有還擊。back 回去，這里fight back指還擊。根據(jù)文意可知，孔子并沒有因為別的孩子嘲笑他而還擊，因為他很善良。故這里填back。

【5】句意：他根據(jù)藝術(shù)家、音樂家們談話，向他們學(xué)習(xí)。talk談話，交談。根據(jù)上句話He went off to talk to holy men in the temple and learned from them可知，這里也表示“和…談話”，全文使用了一般過去時態(tài)，故這里填過去式talked。

【6】句意：如果他想要做困難的事情，他會一遍又一遍的嘗試，直到他學(xué)會為止。until直到…時候。根據(jù)句意可知，這里表示“孔子一遍又一遍的嘗試直到…”，故應(yīng)填until。

【7】句意：就這樣這個男孩自學(xué)了讀書、寫字，還學(xué)會了很多有趣的事情。write寫，是一個動詞。根據(jù)空前的read和首字母w可知，這里應(yīng)該是“寫”，故填write。

【8】句意：孔子長大了，成為了一個很聰明的人。clever聰明的，是一個形容詞。根據(jù)下文He used his abilities and skills in a w___10___way. People sometimes call him the greatest man who ever lived.可知，孔子長大后成為了一個城市的統(tǒng)治者，人們都稱他為“最偉大的人”，因此孔子是很聰明的。故這里填clever。

【9】句意：當(dāng)孔子成為他們的領(lǐng)袖時，人們都非常的開心。根據(jù)下文People sometimes call him the greatest man who ever lived.可知，人們都稱孔子為“最偉大的人”，所以孔子做他們的領(lǐng)袖，他們是開心的。故填happy。

【10】句意：他用聰明的方式運用他的能力和技能。wise聰明的，明智的，是一個形容詞。根據(jù)上下文的意思可知，孔子是一個很聰明的人，所以他做事的方式是“明智的”，故填wise。
