Life is not easy, so I’d like to say “When anything happens, believe in yourself.”
When I was a young boy, I was 1_shy to talk to anyone. My classmates often _2_me.I was sad but could do nothing, Later, _3_happened, and it changed my life. It was an English speech contest. My mother asked me to _4_it .What a terrible idea! It meant I had to speak before all the teachers and students of my school.
“Come on, boy. Believe in yourself. You are sure to 5_the contest.”Then mother and I talked about many different topics. At last I chose the topic “Believe in yourself.”I tried my best to remember all the speech and practiced it over 100 _6_.With my mother’s great love, I did _7_in the contest. I could hardly believe my ears when the news came that I had won the first place, I heard the cheers _8_the teachers and the students. Those classmates_9_once looked down on（看不起）me ,now all said “Congratulations!”to me. My mother hugged me and cried excitedly.
Since then, everything has changed for me. When I do anything, I try to tell _10_to be sure and I will find myself. This is not only for a person but also for a country.

(答案→)A 【小题2】D 【小题3】B 【小题4】A 【小题5】B
解析：
【小题1】考查固定句型。too... to...“太......而不能......”。“我太害羞而不敢和他人说话。”故选A。
【小题2】考查固定短语。made faces at“向......扮鬼脸”；looked after“”照顾；caught up with“赶上”；laughed at“嘲笑”。作者很害羞，经常被同学嘲笑。故选D。
【小题3】考查不定代词。nothing“没事”；something“某事”；everything“一切”；anything“任何事情”。句意“后来，发生了一件事，它改变了我的一生。”故选B。
【小题4】考查“参加”的用法。take part in“参加”；join“加入”，直接加人或组织；当join后加活动时，后要加介词in。根据句意可知，妈妈让作者参加英语演讲比赛。故选A。
【小题5】句意“加油，孩子，你一定会赢得比赛的！”是妈妈给作者在鼓劲。故选B。
【小题6】根据句意可知，作者练习了100多遍。time表示“次数”时，是可数名词。故选C。
【小题7】根据后文可知，作者得了一等奖，故作者演讲的很好。修饰动词did用副词well。故选A。
【小题8】“我听到了来自老师和同学的欢呼”。故选C。
【小题9】考查定语从句。先行词是人时，在定语从句中作主语用who。句意“曾经嘲笑我的同学也来给我祝贺。”故选D。
【小题10】“以后无论做什么事，我都会告诉自己要有信心。”myself“我自己”，故选D。
