【解析】

試題分析：本文講述了一個母親，希望教導自己兒子用樂觀的態(tài)度面對世界。面對兒子提出的天真的問題，雖然不想讓兒子失望，但還是選擇了誠實回答。而兒子的反應出乎她的意料，原來兒子早就已經(jīng)學會了樂觀面對一切，她反而從兒子那里學到了真正的樂觀。

1. A表現(xiàn)；B拒絕；C擔心；D鼓勵。由前文” Being positive is very important.”可知，作者認為保持樂觀是非常重要的，所以她經(jīng)常鼓勵她的兒子保持樂觀。故選D。

2.考查動詞辨析。A經(jīng)歷；B為……準備；C求助于；D尋找。由后文” On the evening before the show, he asked me”可知，在表演的前一天晚上，他問我。說明表演那時候還沒開始，所以他應該是在準備一個表演。故選B。

3.考查動詞辨析。A描述；B.畫畫；C邀請；D看見。根據(jù)前文” He was playing the role of an angel.”可知，他扮演的角色是天使。而一個七歲的小男孩應該會好奇天使的存在，所以他問我們可以看到天使嗎。故選D。

4.A感覺；B態(tài)度；C機會；D方法；seize the chance為固定搭配，意為抓住機會。其他都不能與seize搭配使用，故選C。

5.A愉快的；B相當?shù)�；C冷靜的；D安靜的。由后文” not knowing what to say.”可知，作者不知道說什么，說明她安靜了幾秒。如果用冷靜了幾秒則不符合文章意思。故選D。

6.A想法；B行為；C夢想；D故事。由前文她兒子說的話”He asked, ‘You must have seen them then?’”可知，她被兒子認為她是個完美的人的想法給感動了。故選A。

7.A制造；B期待；C.嘗試；D選擇。由前后文可知，”He looked into my eyes”她兒子看著她，但當時她還沒有回答，所以她兒子在期待一個正面的回答。故選B。

8.A耐心的；B生氣的；C嚴格的；D誠實的。由后文”No. I’ve not been a good person all the time.”可知，她回答的是真實的答案，所以她是選擇了誠實面對她兒子，盡管她兒子對她抱有期望。故選D。

9.A高興的；B驚喜的；C放松的；D尷尬的。由前后文可知兒子對她充滿期待，但她的回答卻并不那么令人開心，”I thought that his____of a perfect mother would now surely be torn into pieces.”她覺得她在兒子心中的美好形象變成了碎片。故選擇D。

10.A描述；B演講；C圖片；D想法。由前文” I was touched by his ___that his mother was a perfect person.” 可知她的完美形象只是他兒子的想法，故選擇D。

11.A完成；B接受；C抓��；D改變。 took除了“拿”還有“接受”、“學習”的意思，從”It’s all right. You know to try to be better from now on.”可知她兒子說沒關系，你知道從現(xiàn)在開始努力去變得更好。說明他兒子接受了媽媽并不完美這個事實。故選B。

12.考查形容詞辨析。A正確的；B好的；C不可能的；D不必要的。由前文” I smiled as I replied”可知，作者笑著回答兒子，表示她贊同兒子說的話。That’s right意為這就對了。That’s fine意為沒事。故選A。

13.A改變；B決定；C不同；D錯誤。由后文” but when we do, we must always try to do better”可知，如果我們這樣做了，我們一定要試著去做得更好。用but連接，說明前面的句子意思與后面的句子意思相反，make a mistake意為犯錯，故選D。

14.A話語；B表演；C想法；D進步。由后文“ I learned a good lesson that day ‘to always try to be better.’”可知，那天我學到了很好的一課，就是“永遠努力去變得更好”。那是她兒子對她說的話。故選A。

15.A教導；B保護；C幫助；D尋找。由” This will always___ me in all situations where I’ll need to be positive.”這里的意思是，這會一直幫助我，在我需要樂觀的時候。其他的詞都不符合語境。故選C。

考點：考查記敘文閱讀。
